One hit Wonder: Babylon Zoo. Levi's Spaceman song
 

Remember that levi's ad back in '95 that had that cool music & everyone rushed out to buy it & it went to no. 1 (Space man, I always wanted you to go into space man, inter-galatic ride) or something similar.

Everyone bought the song & it was rubbish, except for the intro & the outro. Radio 1 got told off for remixing it & playing just the intro & outro.

Anyways: The lead singer was called Jas Mann (I remember this because my then-partner had the hots for him). Well, this article about a man trying to sell his kidney:

"Jas Mann, defending, said "

It *can't* be....He was an absolute idiot who was up his own jacksie in interviews & looked permanently coked-up.

Levi's had a lot of one hit wonders on their ads.

Mr Oizo, that underwater ad, Stiltskin.... Ooo Stiltskin, *starts up 'Inside' on I-tunes* 8)

Stiltskin have reformed! plus, had 3 hits- Inside, Footsteps, and Rest in Peace. Footsteps was good. Rest in Peace was rubbish.

I saw Babylon Zoo live once. Funny thing was they didn't sound anything like the bit of music in the ad, that was just the intro.
