Recommend a deep cut

I don't know if these qualify as deep cuts, but I suspect most people haven't heard of them or overlook them in favor of other songs by these artists:

Bruce Springsteen, "Lift Me Up"
The Decemberists, "Sons and Daughters"
Foo Fighters, "The Last Song"
George Harrison, "If Not For You"
Iron and Wine, "Love Vigilantes"
Jaymay, "Gray or Blue"
Mirah, "Sweepstakes Prize"
Otis Redding, "Tennessee Waltz"
Rolling Stones, "Moonlight Mile"
She & Him, "Change Is Hard"
Tom Petty, "The Apartment Song"
U2, "Original Of The Species"

 

Ooops, I thought this thread was about newspaper salaries. Glad it isn't. Carry on.

 

Ween -- "Mister Would You Please Help My Pony."

 

The mention of "Rockin' Around With You" - a great Tom Petty song - brought to mind my fave deep cut of TP's, "A Thing About You" from Hard Promises. "King's Road" was a great rocker from that album too.

 

My favorite TP deep cuts are "When the Time Comes" (on a very early album) and "The Apartment Song" from Full Moon Fever.

 

Probably debatable whether any Stones song qualifies as a deep cut. Although perhaps so, since a lot of casual rock radio fans probably know them as merely a hit-maker.

Almost everything on "Exile on Main Street" qualifies, but in particular "Rocks Off," "Torn and Frayed," and (most of all) "All Down the Line."

 

My favorite TP deep cut: "Deliver Me" from Long After Dark.

And you can parlay that if you want with the very next song on the album, "Change of Heart".

 

lucero's last november...available only on the import version of "that much further west".

 

Love all three of those songs, but to your point, not sure they would qualify for deep cut status. Certainly not 'Rocks Off', the opening song of the album.

I'll try a couple that could qualify

'Child of the Moon', the b side to JJ Flash.

'High Wire', a studio song from the live album, Flashpoint. Since it was released as a single, maybe more a forgotten cut than a deep cut. In any event, well worthy of a download.

 

A hugely underrated album cut/B side, as is "Ask Me Why."
