BBC Radio 2 - One Hit Wonders with OJ Borg, 1980 Special

One Hit Wonders from 1980, including Stacy Lattisaw, Lipps Inc and Fern Kinney.

A 1980 Special with One Hit Wonders from that year, including Stacy Lattisaw, Lipps Inc and Fern Kinney.

Throughout 2023, we’re going back to the 80s, to celebrate an amazing decade for One Hit Wonders. 

Starting in 1980, a year that saw Empire Strikes Back top the box office, Family Fortunes started on telly, and the most popular toy was a Rubik's Cube.

You’ll hear the singer who had her only big hit at the age of 13, the song that went to number 1 in 28 countries, and a track written by Neil Finn. It qualifies as a One Hit Wonder, we promise.
