Mike Edwards of Jesus Jones, “Right Here, Right Now” – Personal Trainer
The early 90s were a great time for British indie dance bands. It seemed like any yob with a synthesizer could get a hit single. Case in point, Wiltshire-based Jesus Jones. Their 1991 hit “Right Here, Right Now” addressed trendy political issues of the day and went to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100.
The band soldiered on as grunge made them basically obsolete in the next few years, occasionally reuniting for albums or tours. Lead singer Mike Edwards, however, happily found a second career – as a personal trainer. Cycling was always a hobby for Edwards, and he briefly competed in races before starting his own exercise business.

This is just terrible. With the fascinating stories behind the Kingsmen, Bobby Fuller, Singing Nun, Johnny Ace, Otis Redding, Janis Joplin (and that's all I can think of offhand), the oldest one hit wonder you have (who had more than one hit in England) is Gary Glitter?
