Recommendation for a music search-method wanted - hope that's allowed

Hi Folks

I'm a fan of 'One Hit Wonders' and already have a collection of those, that's not what I'm looking for.

I'm looking for a list of tracks that almost made it into the One-Hit-Wonder category, but didn't because the band went on to produce other somewhat popular music.

Another way of saying it, I suppose, would be a list of Stand-Out-Hits - bands or artists that had one particular track that was maybe 10x or maybe even just 5x more popular than anything else they ever did.

I discover tracks like this all the time - but usually by accident only.

Anyone know of a suitable search method?

Thanks.

P.S. - doesn't have to be measured by 'sales of single' - number of youtube-plays or spotify-streams also valid.
