Kiss - I was made for loving you One of the greatest songs I have ever heard, the rest of their stuff is no where near as good. They put on a Majestic live show

To be honest the way the thread is titled makes it a bit pointless as there are no bands you could call great that had only one great song. By definition a one hit wonder isn't a great band.

I don't remember Dennis DeYoung or the video but I remember the song (unfortunately). It got to number 8 in the Irish charts but didn't make the UK top 40.

They could be a great band and still have only had one hit, commercial success does not greatness infer and neither does the opposite.
But the thread title says big not great, I suppose that would mean "everybody's heard of them but most people would only know one song"

Fingal County Council are certainly not competent to be making decisions about the most important piece of infrastructure on the island. They need to stick to badly designed cycle lanes and deciding on whether Mrs Murphy can have her kitchen extension.
