Sonique - It Feels So Good Somehow, I guess that hit single, did not take off in my country (Norway) until spring/summer of 2000, and it was the same with Moby as well, they were huge hits, played all the time, sometimes 3-4 times within an hour, and yeah, It Feels So Good is for me, the sound of spring and some great memories. I had planned on posting this great early 90s dance/club hit, but I was not sure if Rozalla would be considered as a one hit wonder, but she has influenced and gotten lots of cover/remakes of her songs, specially by german dance and rave acts, like Dune (Are You Ready To Fly?) and Blumchen (Ich Bin Wieder Hier), but the originals are still the best ones. Rozalla - Everybody's Free (1991)It has got such a feel-good and positive vibe to it, but I was not aware of this original version, until many years later on. But I am glad I did finally find it.

It took two years and a re-release in 2000 for it to go global, but it is technically a 90's one hit wonder, but she also had a follow up single, Sky, that was a hit also, so it's probably not.

I had almost forgotten about the norwegian pop-duo, M2M (Marion Ravn and Marit Larsen), who scored a few hits around the late 90s and early 00s, but I guess for most people, this is the song they will always be remembered for:
M2M - Don't Say You Love Me (1999)

Speaking of scandinavian one hit wonders, well, they did have a few more radio/video hits, but never again, one that seemed to hit off as big, as they did back in summer of 1997:
Antiloop - In My Mind

Oleta Adams were surely among the brightest and most warm female voices/singers during the late 80s and early 90s, and where I guess she was brought forward, due to the success of her great contribution with Tears For Fears and their album The Seeds of Love (1989), and where Roland Orzabal would produce her album Circle of One (1990), but where the beautiful single, Get Here surely were the main highlight of that record, but I am not sure if she ever quite managed to back up that hit single.
