Your favorite obscure song


What song in your music inventory do you consider a barely known hidden gem? Like a well kept secret know only to a few that you can listen to over and again.

For me it's 'Roads to Moscow' from Al Stewart's 'Past Present and Future' album.

The music, the lyrics, the story it tells is- to be just slightly hyperbolic- brilliant.

Check it out, especially if your a WW2 history buff.

Thank you for your attention on this matter.😁

“Wonderful Remark” - Van Morrison from The Philosopher’s Stone

 

 

Ok, this was a decidedly poppy song as released in 1973, but a really catchy tune that easily got into your head.  The original 1972 version, however, had much edgier lyrics and probably got zero radio play.  Enjoy.

Certainly not obscure for true Elton John fans, but I love Love Lies Bleeding from Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. It’s a great workout for my B&W 702S3s.
