Your favorite one hit wonder + OHW semantics

Thomas Dolby not a OHW.

“In July 1998, Dolby received a “Lifetime Achievement in Internet Music” award from Yahoo! Internet Life . In 2012 he performed at Moogfest and was the recipient of The Moog Innovation Award, which celebrates “pioneering artists whose genre-defying work exemplifies the bold, innovative spirit of Bob Moog”.[61] In February 2018, Dolby was awarded the Roland Lifetime Achievement Award.[62] Dolby has received four Grammy nominations, two each in 1984 and 1988.[63]

Pretty sure I have never heard of Pull me Under…that being said…

I played a lot of Rock Band 2 back in the day. Dream Theater I relate straight to Panic Attack. To a lesser extent Constant Motion.

Also I think this is a pretty great OHW simply because he set out to prove he could have a hit.

Probably doesn’t hurt to have Rick James write your song though.

Interesting case, but I don’t think anyone would call Eddie Murphy a one hit wonder.
