* '''Benny Mardones''' became a one-hit wonder ''twice'' with the same song. His hit single "Into the Night" first charted in 1980, peaking at number 11 for two weeks. At the end of the decade, an Arizona disc jockey added Mardones' hit to his "Where Are They Now?" segment, which reignited interest in the song. The 1989 re-recording peaked at #20ronso.

* '''Music/MarkRonson''' is a very successful producer and artist, especially in his native UK. However, outside Europe -- and particularly in the US -- he's mainly known for being the lead artist of the megahit "Uptown Funk!", his collaboration with Music/BrunoMars that hit #1 on the Hot 100. This was Ronson's first Hot 100 appearance in the States, but to the general public, "Funk" was first and foremost Mars' song. None of his follow-up songs as a lead artist charted anywhere, and international sales for his album ''Uptown Special'' were abysmal. His 2019 comeback "Nothing Breaks Like a Heart", a collaboration with Music/MileyCyrus, gained some traction but ultimately fizzled out at #43, and most of his subsequent focus has been on group projects, features, and production.
