Only living boy is a great choice


A poem on the underground wall and bleeker street for me though.

I'd go with El Condor Pasa, except that Paul Simon ripped it off from a Peruvian song from the 19 teens.

So I'll go with America instead, it does a great job of capturing the feeling of the late 60's.

American Tune might win but it was only Paul Simon, and he ripped off the tune from some decomposing composer named Bach. Great song, though.

Allegedly stole The Myth of Fingerprints from Los Lobos. You have to admit it sounds like a Los Lobos song.

Just out of curiosity I checked Spotify and it has 300 million listens

Not sure that can be on an underrated list

The Boxer was ranked #106 on Rolling Stone’s 500 greatest songs of all time. It’s not underrated.

A story about ripping off the Boxer in class, Alan Zweibel reads from his novel The Other Shulman on Letterman in 2007. I saw this that night as a teenager. Hilarious storytelling that's always stuck with me.
