I was just thinking about this the other day. I can list a few that had more than one but I am not sure it was just two. Off the top of my head:

Billy Squier - Everybody Wants You, Rock Me Tonight
Corey Hart - Sunglasses at Night, I know he had one other hit that I can't remember the name of.
Glass Tiger - Someday, Don't Forget Me

I would take Men at Work off the list. They had a number of hits.

Yeah it was a blast from the past and I concur great song but for me seems one of her calmer hits as I was searching for her other hit wonders

Her bio claims this one was a hit but I do not remember it

YouTube - Lita Ford - GOTTA LET GO !

This one did with a duet with Ozzy

YouTube - Lita Ford & Ozzy Osbourne - Close My Eyes Forever
