I would say no.If his roadies are anything like other bands from that era's roadies,they are basically 90% hippie men.You never watched them set up the show?Think carnival worker.

Jimmy Buffet the ultimate 1 hit wonder.
When you look up 1 hit wonder in the dictionary there is a picture of Buffet.

Margaritaville is he #1 most profitable song in the history of the world.

If it wasn't for that song people would not even know who he is

Not a fan at all. But those parrot heads follow him around like Deadheads did when the Dead were still around. I don't think it's because of that one song.

Clueless as usual. I'm not much of a fan, but to call him a one hit wonder is stupid.

I know he had other top 20 hits but all due to that one hit.

Haha.
I just googled Jimmy Buffet 1 hit wonder just to see if I was the only one that thought that.
In my quick research I find out that margaritaville is the only top 10 hit of his entire career.

Yes just 1 single top 10.
Not 2 top 10s just one top 10.

then I saw dozens of articles written by many music magazines calling him a 1 hit wonder.

Then I saw where Jimmy Buffet himself even hinted that he's a 1 hit wonder.

I guess after all that the one that's clueless turns out to be you.

Congrats on being clueless loomis.

NO... you are still the clueless one. Seen that written about many but there are few out there still doing and making money.

I think Elvis was a no talent hack and i can find many people who say the same...does that make it fact or right? A google search will provide you with both sides of ANY argument in case you haven't noticed.

Ummm. He had 1 top 10 song.
That is not an opinion that is a fact.

Saying Elvis has no talent is an opinion.

Pretty tough genre. Like i said..not much of a fan.

When i think 1 hit wonder i think of someone with a huge song that you never hear of again after that.

E.G.

Nena
Baha Men
Afro man and tons of others.

To say jimmy buffett is a one hit wonder you would have to include Jimmy Hendrix and the Grateful Dead.

I think that chop is right if you are going on technicality....because of the one top 10 hit


but in all seriousness there are hundreds of artists I would name ahead of JB for a "one-hit wonder" and to say he is the definition of the word is absurd

I never was a fan. If I never hear Margaritaville again in my life I will die happy. I don't like ParrotHeads. And I can't stand his "I live in South Florida and you don't" attitude that comes out in about every other song he does..

I said he is the ultimate 1 hit wonder meaning he is the most famous 1 hit wonder of alltime.
I did not compare him to the Baha Men.

I just said he is the most ultimate 1 hit wonder of alltime.

That is not a clueless statement that is a factual statement

He had 1 top 10 hit and that 1 hit is commercially the most popular song ever made in the USA
Those 2 facts combined makes him the undisputed ultimate 1 hit wonde r
