"Eye" is a great song that I only discovered when I bought the Smashing Pumpkins greatest hits. It's quickly become a favorite of mine.Originally Posted by Cyclone792
There's a differnece between an obscure song, though, and a song that was just a really good "B-Side" (non-radio or big airplay) track on an album.
None of these are really "Obscure" per-se...I'd term them "Hype Challenged," but I really like them anyway:
"Prisoner" - The Last Emporer (great underground hip-hop artist)
"Breakin'" - The Music (great british band -- got a little bit of Rush in them)
"Free" - VAST (good 90s sound)
"It's Nuthin'" - Sly Boogy (I can't figure why this guy isn't bigger than 50 Cent. Seriously great wordplay from this guy.)
"Please Stand Up" - British Sea Power (this band should be big pretty soon)
"Consequence Free" - Great Big Sea (These guys should've taken off, but never did. A little bit of Barenaked Ladies to their sound)
"Silverbacks" - Masta Killa ft. Inspectah Deck and the GZA (The last of the original Wu-Tang clan single albums -- obscure because it didn't get released until last year, over a decade after the first Wu album)
