Term for a band/group that has one breakthrough hit that people remember after usually years of making underground music. They may try to luanch more chart-friendly songs on the back of their one song that will fail to have any impact. Will fade back into obscurity within a month only appearing for the odd television appearance.
The ultimate one hit wonder were Los del rio who inspired a massively popular dance to go with their catchy song; La macarena!
Los del rio were making music for over 20 years before La macarena became a hit.
A la tuhuelpa legria macarena

A-Hai!

1)a band that has had only (I shouldn't say only, since most bands never have a successful song) one song that was a commercial sucess.
2)A song which was the only success of the band that played it.
3)A strain of marajuanna grow in Southern California (San Diego's north county) which is so potent that one hit will get you more high than you have ever been before.

One who after talking one "hit" of marijuana is already high; someone who reacts very quickly to the effects of marijuana.

extremely potent marijuana: One good hit of it will get you very high. It's usually bright green and loaded with crystals...the best stuff you can get.
