Those are obscure?

Best obscure song ever is "Product of DK" by The Blue Van, and "Astral Man" by The Gore Gore Girls. That's some underground **** right there.

rilo kiley (not as obscure) - a town called luckey (but that's an obscure song of theirs right there!!!!111)
the jesus & mary chain - between planets;
styrofoam - couches in alleys;
DNTEL - (this is) the dream of evan and chan;
lali puna - faking the books;

Tutto Più Chiaro Che Qui by Francesco De Gregori
All clearer than here

È tutta stesa al sole, vecchio,
It's all lied under the sun, old man
questa vecchia storia.
this old story
Tutta nelle tue gambe,
All in your legs
e nella tua memoria.
and in your memory
Che hai visto il Tevere quand'era giovane,
You saw the Tiber when it was young,
che si poteva nuotare,
and you could swim in it,
che hai visto il cielo quand'era libero,
you saw the sky when it was free
che si poteva guardare.
and it could be watched,
E hai visto l'aquila volare.
you saw the eagle fly

Io da qui vedo il cielo inchiodato alla terra,
I, from here, see the sky nailed to the earth,
e la terra attraversata da gente di malaffare,
and the earth crossed by shady characters
e vedo i ladri vantarsi e gli innocenti tremare,
and see the thiefs be proud and the innocent tremble,
vedo i ladri vantarsi e gli innocenti tremare.
I see the thiefs be proud and the innocent tremble.

Ma tu, dimmi che cosa vedi adesso tu?
But you, tell me what do you see now?
Che adesso quasi non ci vedi più.
That you almost can't see anymore
Dimmi che cosa vedi tu da lì.
Tell me what you see from there
Dimmi che è tutto più chiaro che qui,
Tell me that everything is clearer than here,
tutto più chiaro che qui.
everything clearer than here

E dimmi che potrò capire,
And tell me that I will be able to understand
e dimmi che potrò sapere,
and tell me that I will be able to know
e dimmi che potrò vedere,
And tell me that I will be able to see
un giorno anch'io così,
one day, also I, in this way
tutto più chiaro che qui.
everything clearer than here
Anch'io così, tutto più chiaro che qui,
Also I in this way,
tutto più chiaro che qui.
everything clearer than here

È tutta stesa al sole,
It's all lied under the sun,
questa vecchia storia,
this old story
tutta sulle tue spalle, vecchio,
all on your shoulders, old man
e sulla tua parola.
and on your word.
Che hai visto piovere sulle rovine,
you saw rain on the ruins
e le montagne crollare
and the mountains tumble
e hai visto il sangue e le stelle alpine
you saw the blood and the Edelweiss
e la neve bruciare.
and the snow burn.
E hai visto l'aquila volare.
and you saw the eagle fly

Io da qui vedo uomini caduti per terra
I, from here, see men fallen on the ground
e nessuno fermarsi a guardare.
and nobody stopping to see
E gli innocenti contendersi e gli assassini ballare
And the innocents get corrupted and the killers dance
e gli innocenti corrompersi e gli assassini brindare.
And the innocents get corrupted and the killers cheer.



Ma tu, dimmi che cosa vedi adesso tu?
But you, tell me what do you see now?
Che adesso quasi non ci vedi più.
That you almost can't see anymore
Dimmi che cosa vedi tu da lì.
Tell me what you see from there
Dimmi che è tutto più chiaro che qui,
Tell me that everything is clearer than here,
tutto più chiaro che qui.
everything clearer than here

E dimmi che potrò capire,
And tell me that I will be able to understand
e dimmi che potrò sapere,
and tell me that I will be able to know
e dimmi che potrò vedere,
And tell me that I will be able to see
un giorno anch'io così,
one day, also I, in this way
tutto più chiaro che qui.
everything clearer than here
Anch'io così, tutto più chiaro che qui, pa'
Also I in this way, dad
tutto più chiaro che qui.
everything clearer than here

My favorite obscure song is "Echo Valley 2-6809" by The Partridge Family ("Sound Magazine" LP).

haha ... i can vouch for the existence of some of them, although i doubt their obscurity!

hmm ... my favorite obscure songs ... most of 'em are bluegrass. my fave is "ramshackle shack" by wade mainer & the the sons of the mountaineers.

Under the Milky Way--The Church



Gimme a break..."obscure"?? Not EVEN. That song STILL gets huge airplay on supposed "alternative" stations...such as KROQ in Los Angeles. (even by my band...we extend the song with a big jam at the end, adding a tease of "Rhiannon")
