actually delerium could probably qualify as one hit wonders....i mean yes they have made some other decent tracks since the silence but have any of those songs come even marginally close to the quality and impact that that track had?? its probably a bit harsh because its pretty hard to out do a song that great but i still think they never got out of the shadow of "the silence" and wont really be remembered for much else in the future other than that track.

As above, Ascension might be concidered as a one hit wonder artist wise, For A Lifetime just wasn't anything special in comparison. The duo's other aliases easily make up for the "loss" tho as they are also known as The Space Brothers, Lustral and Chakra among a bunch of others under which they have had several massive hits over the years.
Wow, I never knew that, all 3 of those alias's rock!

That's a load of horseshit. They have had numerous big hits since then and pretty much every single time someone remixes their works they become one of the most popular tracks of that time.
The original mixes were never really big hits, but they never intended to be either as they are more downbeat and chilled.
I'm not even going to bother going into all their aliases...
nah true..im getting a bit technical there lol but i still have a point...sorta

Jan Johnston did the vocals. She's done bucketloads
As Freefall (with another guy, Bremner or something) thats the only track they did.
