What's your favorite obscure song by an otherwise well-known artist?

I am currently listening to Foreigner's "Counting Every Minute" from "Inside Information". What a kick-ass tune this is.

I love "March of the Black Queen" by Queen. I think it's off of Queen II. Great tune, kinda think they were going for Rhapsody before Rhapsody. "Counting Every Minute" does rock.

Gramm always wanted to rock more, unlike Perry. It's like he got sick of doing the ballads and told Mick Jones "Let's bust out a can of whoop-ass on this one!". I love it.

I'm going to post this one..it's what first came to mind as I read the title of your thread before realizing you meant from a well known band.
This has always been one of my favorite songs that wouldn't come up to often.

Hmmm....I consider Robin Gibb a well-known artist, having been a Bee Gees fan since 1974. He put out a solo album in 1985 called "Walls Have Eyes" and there is a song on there called "Like a Fool" that turns me into budda!

Wuthering Heights as covered by Pat Benatar. I actually prefer it over the Kate Bush original.

WOW!! good call.. havent listened to that in years..

Pat was such a good vocalist when she wanted to be. I loved the video "I'm gonna follow you" which MTV would play once a day their first few months on the air. She looked so hot cruising around town in that hiphugger dress she wore in the video.

That is a great album all around. I like the obsure stuff off 4 like "Woman in Black", "I'm Gonna Win" and "Girl On The Moon"

I think Pat's version is outstanding and even heard her perform it in concert once. Kate Bush's version is AWFUL! She screams through the whole thing!!

"What Are You Doing In My Life?"
"I Got A Thing About You"

All three of those songs are awesome. "I'm Gonna Win" is a great, relatively unknown ass-kicker as well.

No way. Both Kate Bush versions blow hers away IMO. But then again, I love Kate Bush.

Seriously?!?! I thought I was the only one in the world who liked "Unidentified Flying Turkey Trot" REO before the ballads took over.
