NEW YORK — As far as one-hit wonders go, Daniel Powter is king of them allfor this decade, at least.

Powter, whose hit “Bad Day” reigned on top of the Billboard pop charts for five weeks in 2006, was named the decade’s top one-hit wonder by Billboard.

The magazine describes one-hit wonders as acts whose second hit did not reach the top 25; it included only acts from 2000 to 2007, since someone from last year might just be taking a break.

No. 2 on the list is the Terror Squad for “Lean Back”; No. 3 is Crazy Town with “Butterfly”; No. 4 is MIMS with “This Is Why I’m Hot”; and No. 5 is D4L with “Laffy Taffy.” The Associated Press
