What are some examples of songs from this decade which were quite successful at the time of their release, but the artist/band who released it faded into obscurity shortly after that?
Here are a few I can think of:
Shortly after winning The X-Factor UK back in 2014, Ellla Henderson's "Ghost" topped the charts in her home country and went on to peak within the Top-10 in several others, such as Australia. Her single even finished the year as the 6th best-selling song of 2014 in the UK, which goes to show that it definitely left it's mark on the music scene. However, despite it being a global smash-hit, Ella Henderson's career did not eventuate to anything more and she was never able to replicate the success that she achieved with "Ghost".
This one deserves to be forgotten about.
Holds the distinction of being one of the very few rock songs to finish as one of the Top-10 best-selling singles of a 2010s year. It's a shame that Walk The Moon weren't able to achieve a successful follow-up single.
