This guy was supposed to be the second coming of Prince when he came out. I believe this was his only hit. Although, to be fair to the thread, this one only reached 4 on the hot 100.

That includes some mostly forgotten number ones... this is one of the most recent ones that completely disappeared from the collective memory after coming out: https://www.stereogum.com/2190877/the-number-ones-divines-lately/columns/the-number-ones/
The column really takes me back to the feel of peak Good Dr. Bill posts on SOMB / blog posts... and in fact Andrew just interviewed Breihan about his book that comes out soon: https://www.billboard.com/music/chart-beat/tom-breihan-number-ones-stereogum-interview-1235160058/
