Overlooked hits is kind of an oxymoron

True. Should be "forgotten single releases" or something like that. A large percentage of the songs mentioned so far were actually played to death BITD and are routinely name checked when simply talking about 90s songs in general. Don't know how that amounts to being overlooked.

I'd guess it to mean under appreciated, which a lot of the songs listed weren't even that and, like you said, were played to death. Hey Jealousy for one. You couldn't go a few hours without hearing that song in fall of 93.


One song I don't see very often in Best of 90's lists, which I think is one of the best songs from the 90's, is Carry the Zero by Built To Spill. It definitely got a LOT of play on the college rock stations, but I never really heard it outside of that.
