In this episode, OJ's taking you to America, the home of many a celebrity and musician, but he's giving you some of the best artists with only one UK hit.

You'll hear tracks from America, of course, as Horse With No Name was their only UK Top 40. New York group Deee-Lite's debut single from 1990, and an artist who's been credited on Ed Sheeran's Shape Of You, TLC's No Scrubs and Destiny's Child's Bills Bills Bills - Kandi.

How many One Hit Wonders do you remember from over the years? The songs from artists who were huge in the charts... but only managed it once!
