Jimmy Eats World - one hit wonder ?

[MoroDashi]

Would you consider Jimmy Eats World as a one hit wonder ? The hit would be The Middle, of course.
Personally, I think it depends on what type of music you listen to. There are certain songs that make a band famous, but still produces great songs. Thats what i think of Jimmy Eats World as. The Middle is their main song , branching out to many awesomee songs ;D

What do you think ?

well that's the only song I've heard by them, so i consider them a one hit wonder.

All their songs appear to be both written and composed by 12-year-olds, but they got kinda lucky with The Middle. It simply sounds too great to even be bothered by lyrics.

Much like Coldplay (Clocks) or Muse (Butterflies and Hurricanes) or Feeder (Buck Rogers), they got lucky only once and it was epic.

Just because you only know of one song, that doesn't necessarily mean they're a one hit wonder.

They've actually had a few chart-toppers, and their albums have done well, too. (Singles charts go by popularity, Album charts go by sales)

Well, agreed... This band is pretty good, and its not only the song "The Middle" that got them pretty popular. They have pretty good songs.. D: And frankly I like mostly all of them. Especially when they can do more than soft rock. :3
