Those other songs
« on: October 08, 2005, 09:02:31 AM »
Those other lessor known songs on an album that never seemed to make it big or even get much, if any radio play but nonetheless you consider to be great songs.

Example Thin Lizzy -Jailbreak album

Many if not most know "Jailbreak" and "The Boys are back in Town"

but I think just about every other song on that album is almost as good if not just as good.
"Warrors" (the lyrics of which I have posted on another thread)
Emerald, and "the cowboy song" immediately come to mind.

Also great albums.

Example
Many people know Cheap Trick for "Your mammas alright" and "I want you to want me"
but I think Cheap tricks best album was "Cheap trick Cheap Trick"
GREAT album every flipp'n song.
Songs like "elo Kiddies", "Daddy should have stayed in high school",Taxman Mr theif" and "Speak Now or ForeverHold your Peace"
Clips and full version of "Tax Man Mr Theif" can be heard
 
HERE  

So What songs or albums make your list?

Death is no easy answer
For those who wish to know
Ask those who have been before you
What fate the future holds
It ain't pretty

Cowboy Song - Thin Lizzy,  I'm definately a big fan of the guitar work on this one.
Surfing With the Alien - Joe Satriani

Theres more, but I don't feel like looking em up.  I either know the song name or artist, but not both. :rolleyes:

Portishead -
Live in NYC,
their two albums were writen with an orchestra, and to see & hear it live makes it absolutely awesome.

I am the warrior
I serve the death machine
Losers or conquerors
All flash past on my silver screen


:D


Oh... I think my favorite "other song" is Garbage, "Hammering In My Head".
