A little weird topic, but here are some examples; everyone knows "Slipping Away" by Dave Edmunds but i always dug this one; thought it was WAY MORE representative of the 80s sound

Maybe not better than Come Back & Stay..but damn; Paul Young was on his game in the early 80s and I never freaking hear this song anymore.

Good topic

I'll submit one


Obviously overshadowed by No Rain

I think this is easily a better song. When it kicks in it's glorious.

Shoot, I could probably name 20+ KISS songs I prefer over Rock and Roll All Nite.

The first single from The Verve Pipe was my favorite. After The Freshman came out, Photograph literally disappeared from radio/MTV. Good memories!

My favorite song, period, is Photograph by Def Leppard. Sugar sucked all the oxygen out of the entire catalogue.
