For the purpose of this thread, I am defining 'One Hit Wonder' as a song which reached the top 20 of the UK charts, the band or artist never having previously or again reaching any position in the charts with another song.

Collaborations where any contributing artist had other hits don't count, but artists recording under a different name ( eg Python Lee Jackson or Derek & The Dominoes ) do.
