Great band, at least 3 hits from them... my local alt / pop punk / rock station plays "You", "Change", and "Far Behind" from their first disk
here is my additions:
Information Society - Pure Energy
Frida - I Know There's Something
Aldo Nova - Fantasy
Zebra - Tell Me What You Want
Actually, I think Information Society had about 3 hits, all from one album...
What about Ice Ice baby by Vanilla ice?
Alright stop, collaberate and LISTEN! Ice is back with his brand new invention.....

You guys are better than most at these kinds of threads! And, just to eliminate a few:
"Baby, Please Don't Go" was the first hit from The Amboy Dukes
"Good Girls Don't" followed "My Sharona" from The Knack
"Since You've Been Gone" was a mild stab at a second hit from Head East
"Just Between You and Me" - April Wine
Stories had a follow-up hit, can't remember the title, but it might be "Baby Blue"?
"Land Down Under" was big for Men Without Hats
We could mention -
"Black Betty" - Ram Jam
"Switching to Glide/This Beat Goes On" - The Kings

Nope, that was Men At Work. Who also had "Who Can It Be Now?"
And did someone mention "Louie Louie" by the Kingsmen, or did I miss it?
I've always liked the line:
Nothing matters 'cept the weekend- from a Tuesday point of view
How about:
Rock the Boat- The Hueghs Corporation (?) with James Jamerson on bass.
I'm showing my age here, but I don't think anyone has mentioned:
You're Still the One, by Orleans.

Nah, they had two hits. Remember "Dance With Me"?
This thread is starting to scare me a little. I'm kind of appalled that so many of us remember so much of this stuff!

NEW THREAD: 2-hit wonders!!
They had "Cut the Cake", but no others really got the attention "Pick up the Pieces" did by AWB.
