Thanks - it was hard to limit the list to just those. I could've easily quadrupled the number of songs but since I listen to the radio once in a blue moon I have no idea what sort of airplay the songs I listed actually receive. For all I know they are played all the time and I didn't want to pollute the thread with 100+ songs that aren't really underrated.fantastic listNot sure where all these topped out on charts and I am sure some are pretty well known... but meh

Everybody Knows - Leonard Cohen - the cover by Concrete Blonde is great as well
Head On The Jesus & Mary Chain - the cover by the Pixies is good too
