Survivor wasn't a one hit wonder either:
"High on You"
"The Search is Over"
"Burning Heart" (Rocky IV soundtrack)
"Moment of Truth" (Karate Kid soundtrack) -

But My Sharona might be the worst hit song of all time, so it deserves special consideration. -
I humbly stand corrected.

Norman Greenbaum - Spirit in the Sky
That song has been used all over the place. -
Golden Earring - "Radar Love"

Twilight Zone? Not a one hit wonder. -
Obviously the I would walk 500 miles song is the right answer, but for the sake of naming more one hit wonders:
Starland Vocal Band - Afternoon Delight. That song alone won them Best New Artist over Boston's debut album. -
The Village People weren't one hit wonders. "In the Navy", "Macho Man", "Go West" were some of their other hits.

Not a one hit wonder. Not even the right name for the song. -

Wrong, try again.
"Posse On Broadway" - his first hit -
Dale a tu cuerpo alegria Macarena...
Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy Macarena! -
People need to stop posting obscure secondary songs trying to disprove the artist was a one hit wonder.

If it hit the Top 10, its a hit, some might even say Top 40. Me? Top 20.

But they aren't obscure. I'm 24 and I've heard all of these "secondary songs." -
I agree with you. Many of these acts had other lesser known hits.
My choice here:
Peter Schilling "Major Tom (Coming Home)" just because it's a such a good song.
