They only did it once, but one time was the charm. Now, it's time to honor our favorite singular sensations of the '80s! From "Don't Worry, Be Happy" to "I Want Candy" to "Take On Me" and beyond, VH1 is paying tribute to the lone (but unforgettable) smash hits by Reagan era stars in 100 Greatest One Hit Wonders of the '80s. It's everything a totally awesome countdown should be, featuring electronic beats, synthesizers galore, questionable haircuts and more...<br><br>But this five-part retro romp isn't just a countdown -- we'll also reveal the story behind each tune and bring you up to date on what these one-time stars are doing today. The show will feature new, original interviews plus rare archival performances. Dead or Alive, Bobby McFerrin, Aldo Nova, Don Johnson, The Tubes and Scritti Politti are just some of the artists to be profiled.<br><br>VH1's 100 Greatest One Hit Wonders of the '80s is scheduled to air in March 2009.
