Great Songs (underrated and long-forgotten category)

"Life In A Northern Town" is one of my all-time fave 80s songs.

I heard "Skateaway" on XM yesterday for the first time in ages. Forgot what a great somg that was.

Two great lost Dire Straits songs: "Two Young Lovers" and "Twisting By the Pool".

 

"Is She Really Going Out With Him?" - Joe Jackson

 

Wow - hadn't seen the U2 video in 20+ years. Thanks.

 

My demons are calling me tonight, tempting me badly, so sticking to my 'puter to look up videos for y'all is the healthiest thing I can do.

 

"Ship of Fools" - World Party
"The Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead" - XTC
"Deeper Shade of Soul" - Urban Dance Squad

 

Speaking of ... if you can't find one on YouTube, try this ... http://www.hotget.com/

It has a lot of seldom-seen videos.

 

As a one-time card-carrying member of Frenz of the Enz I'll throw in "Message To My Girl," "Six Months in a Leaky Boat" and "Stuff and Nonsense."

 

Peter Pumpkinhead

Deeper Shade of Soul (live)

 

Sweet. Didn't know about that site. Bookmarked. Thanks.

 

You really thought you'd get away without anyone commenting on this selection didn't you? No way you slip Expose by me. Man, I had a very rude flashback to standing around at some warehouse club slamming Jagermeister. Damn you! (how about Seasons No Reason to Change?)

 

Now we're having some fun! De La Soul.

 

Just as good:

"Almost Over You" - Sheena Easton
