Not sure New Radicals are technically one hit wonders as they had a few hit songs from their only album, such as Mother, we can’t get enough and Someday We’ll know.

"Get What You Give" wasn't a real hit as it barely cracked the Top 40 on the Hot 100. Furthermore, I always thought this song sucked. It's very cheesy and I can't support those anti-Courtney Love lyrics.

yeah i hated that song for bashing Courtney but it was played non stop on mtv so it was a considerable hit for them even if it didn't exactly sell well.

And I feel like the only reason it got played on MTV was due to the Courtney Love lyric... kind of an obvious and desperate attempt to generate publicity.
