Eamon is an American singer from Staten Island, New York who scored one notorious, chart-topping hit with a smooth doo-wop-flavoured breakup song defined by its very unsmooth language. Released in 2003, his blunt kiss-off ballad paired classic R&B production with a torrent of profanity, and the contrast made it a worldwide phenomenon, reaching number one in the UK and across Europe.
The song was striking enough to inspire a hugely successful answer record from another artist, but Eamon himself was unable to follow it, and the rest of his catalogue sits far behind that one breakthrough.
On streaming, the hit sits near 230 million plays, while his next most-streamed track trails at under five million. That sends the ratio above 45, far past our 5.0 line.
By our measure Eamon is a certified one-hit wonder. His is a classic early-2000s novelty-tinged story: an artist who caught the world's attention with one shocking, oddly tender breakup song whose smooth melody and rude words made it impossible to ignore, then watched the moment pass, leaving that single record standing far ahead of everything else he released.
