Whether you were belting "Flavor of the Weak" into a hairbrush, learning how to play power chords to "Teenage Dirtbag" or simply blowing out your headphones, computer speakers or car stereo while blasting the Starting Line in the suburbs, admit it: You had a thing for pop-punk at one point or another. No one was immune between the years of 1996-2006. Though bands like Blink-182 and New Found Glory went on to represent that sunny genre that coupled radio-ready hooks with the driving riffs of punk and hardcore better than anything else, a handful of select bands made a special contribution to the canon of pop-punk: the one-hit wonder.

We've scoured our LiveJournals, our memories and our stacks of mix tapes to compile this list of favorite pop-punk one-hit wonders for you. Sit back, relax, rewind and revisit. (And we apologize in advance for getting "Flagpole Sitta" stuck in your head for the rest of time.)
