Your favorite obscure song

What song in your music inventory do you consider a barely known hidden gem? Like a well kept secret know only to a few that you can listen to over and again.

For me it's 'Roads to Moscow' from Al Stewart's 'Past Present and Future' album.

The music, the lyrics, the story it tells is- to be just slightly hyperbolic- brilliant.

Check it out, especially if your a WW2 history buff.

Thank you for your attention on this matter.😁

@77jovian ,

+1 for 'Come Away Melinda'.

Also, Uriah Heep's 'Lady in Black'. Simply outstanding!

@77jovian ,

Just listened to Lady in Black for the first time in years and it reminded of all the great music Uriah Heep made.

The lyrics, the musicianship: they're one of the best bands of that era and in rock history. I don't think they ever attained the heights they deserved.

@bernadie5317 ,

Good one. I don't know how that one didn't become a hit.

@jpwarren58 ,

Simply used obscure for lack of a better word. I should have put 'Favorite Hidden Gem'.

@hilde45 ,

Now it’s just getting ridiculous. The pendulum has swung way too far of center.

Loved your song choice by the way...

@whart ,

Everyone who’s been here a while knows you’re a good egg.

We've all at one time or another posted something a bit out of character for us.

@murphbass ,

If you would have seen the song from @hilde45 that got censored , you'd understand why he facetiously posted 'God Bless the U.S.A.'
