Fantastic choice!This category could be repeated daily until the end of March and I wouldn't run out of material. Alone in a car, I will belt out pretty much anything on my Playlist. My wife married "for better or worse" and therefore is sometimes subjected to my singing and my kids don't get a choice. Just know I would spare all of you.
So while I can't imagine not belting out "Cause I'm Mr. Brightside" or "I got soul but I'm not a soldier" joining in when Hootie croons Let Her Cry or Hold My Hand or joining Elvis talking about Alison.
But I'm going to go with one today that I sing from start to finish every time I hear it
Reminds me of my family, having to put up with my crazy music and awful voice. This album has a number of great sing-along Classics.
My Young daughter yellowing “awoooooo! Werewolves of London.”
And she shockingly learned all of the the NY Dolls lyrics too from their first album.

Day 3: A song you love that most people haven’t heard from a popular band/artist
Everyone’s heard My Sharona. Maybe even good girls don’t. But this song is a fucking scorcher.
The Knack - let me out

This may not be obscure enough, but I hope someone will hear it today for the first time and enjoy it. It is one of my favorites of hers.

What’s funny is this song came out after he’d rejoined ironmaiden, so I didn’t realize it was written during the time he wasn’t with the band.

I'm not saying anything you say is incorrect but does he/they qualify as a popular artist/band? The song is popular but right now we are looking at a one hit wonder, imo.

He's got 4 albums, maybe not a huge success, like U2 for example, but respectable

It seems many are choosing to liberally define "popular". When you start your selection "for those of you may not who may not know..." that's pretty much the opposite of popular. (Apologies if this offends, it's not the intent but if someone is going to be the asshole, who better than me?
)I ruled out a song that I've been eager to use by Cracker because they aren't a household name.
I hope this question repeats every month because I think it's great to expose some obscure songs from great artists.
Love the blend of classical piano with rock and roll that this one brings

I dunno, I think “popular” as a concept has changed a lot in the 21st century, the market’s much more fragmented. I think it’s perfectly reasonable to say that someone is popular but still not widely known. Unlikely to see bands with the reach of The Stones ever again.

He continued doing solo albums after rejoining. When he had the time I have no idea. He doesn't specify in his book, that I recall, when he originally wrote this, but there is a decent buffer between the reunion and Ronnie's passing.
With a catalog like Sure Elton, there are bound to be subs that people have no clue about, or never was his.It seems many are choosing to liberally define "popular".

It's obviously open to the interpretation of the author but I think the definition of "popular" is pretty straightforward.
I probably should have kept my mouth shut and left it to MLAS and her paddle. Sorry. I certainly didn't mean to sidetrack the music with a debate.

What a strange concept thinking Elton 's Funeral for a Friend is obscure ,that no one has heard of by him. A most popular artist and yes that is exactly what you enjoy doing is sidetracking ....Strange is a much nicer word than the one you suggest ...It's all good we are entitled to our individual opinions , which is also excellent ...

I do agree that some people are interpreting “popular band/artist” in maybe a different way than you or I would. I have no issue with that though. I think the prompts are up for interpretation.
“One hit wonder that actually has a good catalogue of songs” might be a fun category.
No apologies necessary on this one. I enjoy debates!
The lady of the thread is pleased.
Absolutely! Will add to the list. But you could also suggest that in the appropriate thread with a special link attached (cough cough,
). Just saying…

Hopefully k.d. lang is well known enough for @Mr_bogey. This in MY interpretation.
"for those of you may not who may not know...” she made an album with the lesser known Neko Case and Laura Veirs and it’s magic.
