Synopsis

You know him as a best selling author; you know him as a TV and radio presenter. But did you know that in a former life, as Morris Minor and the Majors, Tony was a pop star? He had a No. 4 hit with 'Stutter Rap' in 1988. He was on Top of the Pops. He tasted fame. Now Hawks wants more. Fame beckons once again-ONE HIT WONDERLAND is Tony's wonderful account of an adventure that takes him right around the world in search for that elusive follow-up hit. From the studios of Nashville to the coffee bars of Amsterdam; from the plains of Sudan to the wilds of Tasmania, Hawks will do anything to have a hit. He changes musical styles with a bewildering lack of integrity. He hypes charts, he gets remixes. But will he get a hit? Is that even possible anywhere in the world with a song called 'You Broke My Heart Like A Bird's Egg (But Now The Yolks On You)'?
