How about Prefab Sprout, anyone remember them, they were kind of in the 'They Might Be Giants' thing I felt.

Didn't Inspiral Carpets have more than one almost-hit? "Saturn 5" or something like that - I remember they filmed the video in the "Vomit Comet" weightlessness training plane.

"Saturn 5" got to No. 20 in '94

I think "Two Worlds Collide" and "I Want You" were Top 20 as well.
So, definitely, "Several Almost-Hit Wonders", then...
