Outside of the regulars they play, Oasis has a mostly great catalog of songs.

The Heavy - Colleen
The Heavy - Short Change Hero

The Heavy are a British 4-piece with a rock/blues sound. Most people would know "How You Like Me Now" but they have a lot of other great stuff.

JET - Black Hearts (On Fire)
JET - Start the Show
JET - Don't Break Me Down

JET kind of steadily faded after a big start with "Are You Gonna Be My Girl". But that is a pretty tame, standard rock song and their albums got progressively better, but also less popular. The above are all from Shaka Rock, which is a fun album. And their last.

Jet - Rip it Up and Look What You've Done are 2 more good songs from them.

Agreed. Rip it Up is one of my favourites. Both of those songs got pretty significant air play though.

Really, when it comes to the 3 bands I mentioned, I feel like pretty much all of their songs (outside the well-known hits) are great unknowns and/or underrated.

I know Jet is not a popular choice to the majority of people, I'm probably biased because I saw them many years ago backing up Oasis, and it was a really good time. Outdoor show in the summer, Oasis was amazing. We were there early and watched Jet go through a couple of sound check/warm up songs.

Rolling Stones - Almost Hear You Sigh

This is actually my favorite Rolling Stones song. It was written for Keith Richard's solo album and Keith recorded several versions of it himself (you can find on Youtube) before it was recorded by the Stones for their 1989 "Steel Wheels" album.

If you listen closely, it's a similar progression as Beast of Burden but with a much more airy concept and modern production. I love Keith's solo in it.

One of their best. Offspring has a lot of pretty great tracks, unfortunately the frequently played radio singles are IMO far from their best work. A lot of stupid/funny songs that get played, mostly..which is actually too bad and doesn't give them the reputation as artists they might actually deserve.

Matthew Good - Non-Populous

I think what gets me about this one is that it came out on an album that released 16 years after the start of his career, and 10 years after the height of his popularity. It's over 8 minutes long, so it was never set to be commercially successful.

Almost forgot about this song. Love it. Thanks for the reminder.

Oh man, that's just awful stuff, long after they lost their soul.

If you're going to include this band in this thread then you should be pulling from their self-titled, or Ignition.
