So this thread is all about posting links to songs that few people know about but you think are great. The criteria i'll set is songs with fewer than 300,000 youtube hits (relatively low for youtube)
I think there are a few Sufjan Stevens fans on the forum, but you may not be familiar with this one, which, to the best of my knowledge, hasn't made it onto any of his albums. But I had the opportunity to see him perform it live in Boston a couple years ago, and it was one of the most hauntingly beautiful moments of any concert I've been to.
Since this is little known songs (as opposed to little know bands), I'm picking a song by a very popular band, but a track that was never a single, is relatively unknown and comes from an unjustly maligned album.
From No.4, Stone Temple Pilots - Glide
Edit: perhaps 300,000 is a bit high of a limit. Perhaps 30,000 would better achieve the desired results.
