To ask what your fave widely unknown songs are

[Brrrrrrrrrrrr]

After recently discovering the song ‘Kiss you all over’ by the band Exile a few weeks ago it’s got me wondering how many other non mainstream gems there are out there that I’ve missed, is it unreasonable to ask what your unknown gem is?
Mine are…

Tina Turner- Don’t Turn around / I’ll be thunder / Ask me how I feel / Love thing / Paradise is here

Rolling Stones- Moonlight Mile

Bruce Springsteen- Racing in the streets

Bette Midler- Stay with me

Phil Manzanera - Astrud. Only on You Tube, tempted to ask if it can go on Spotify
John Martin - Could not Love Ypu More.

Will have to trawl through my Playlist for others.

@cosycover I was coming to say John Butler Trio too! So maybe not so much huh! 😁 I walked down the aisle to Losing you.

Some others - Paris Match by Style Council
Valerie - Steve Winwood
Truth or Something Beautiful - Paloma Faith

Don't Pretend - The Belles. Proper northern soul banger.

It is 😊

Anything by Aaron Neville especially Pledging My Love and Every Day of my Life.

Dancing Tight - Phil Fearon & Galaxy
Just Got Lucky - Jo Boxers

Bird of Paradise , Snowy White
Where ever you go, Mark Knopfler and Ruth Moody.
Thunder and lightning, Passenger.
The Mention Of Your Name, Chris Rea.

Fuck this shit - Belle and Sebastian

I like Emerson Lief’s music, Berlioz’s jazz tracks, Why Why Why Why Why by SAULT 5, Hand’s Down by The Greeting Committee, Wine Glass by Leddra Chapman…That’s all I can come up with quickly and some people may know them, of course.

'Roscoe' by the fairly obscure American psychedelic / folk rock band Midlake.

Most of the Afterglow album by Sarah McLachlan. Also Little B. And Wonder.

I could listen to Opeth’s cover of Soldier of Fortune all day long.

I also feel The Living End didn’t get the exposure they deserved.

Jennifer- Bert Somner
Every Little Bit- Patty Griffin

🙌

68 Guns by The Alarm - no one’s ever heard of this if I mention it but I love it.

Probably actually quite well known tbf but Hold Me Up by Live. I just like it!

With you in your dreams - Hanson. I loved the Middle of Nowhere album and still play it in my car.

first concert I ever went to was The Alarm
68 guns will never die, 68 guns our battle cry

Valley of the Queens - Ayreon

Set the fire to the third bar - Snow Patrol feat Martha Wainwright
England - The National

Richard Harris McArthur park is a superb oddity.
Favourites are Ash shining light and Jeff Buckleys Lover, You Should've Come Over and satisfied mind.
