What song(s) do you rate highly but you think most on here would probably need to Google (then hopefully agree).

For me it's probably:

La Tristesse Durera by the Manics.

Play it Cool: The Super Furry Animals.

Very good. I should have thrown 'Streets of Kenny' by Shack in there to balance up a bit. Lol.

Comedy, and Undecided (both by Shack) are minor classics. Mick Head is sorely underappreciated as a songwriter

Just listened to the Fire on the Moon from the thread below and that was indeed a foe tapper. Thought it was the Pet Shop Boys at first.

Great choice!

I'd add Hedonism by Skunk Anansie, Strictly Business by EPMD and Fisherman's Blues by The Waterboys.

Yes, I know and like that song.

I probably went a little obscure with my other choices so my less well known song by a well known band is:

At My Most Beautiful by R.E.M
