If you're a music lover, there's no excuse for you not to have Sirius-XM Satellite Radio (unless you're broke) - the service, and its brethren are basically a necessity. Not only do you get radio programs hosted by legends like Bruce "Cousin Brucie" Morrow, Randy Bachman, and Nancy Sinatra, but there's also a radio station for every musical niche in existence. One of the best of those "niche stations" is Deep Tracks, which takes its programming from non-single album tracks, B-sides, and other obscure songs by famous artists. While we were dancing to no. 1 hits by legendary bands like The Beatles, The Beach Boys, and The Rolling Stones, other good songs faded into the background, and crucially, Deep Tracks is helping music lovers to discover these classic tunes. As music buffs, we should all feel a responsibility to help introduce fellow fans to our own musical discoveries, particularly when they draw attention to lesser heralded gems and forgotten brilliance. So with that in mind, and in celebration of the eternal hunt for lesser known genus, here's ten great overlooked songs by famous artists that you need to discover.
