Okay, I can appreciate the intent of this thread, but the details can be debated ad infinitum. It really should be retitled "Best FM Deep Cuts." True, many FM singles were never hits, but the intention was there to try and make it a hit (otherwise they would have never released it). As such, a deep cut is:
1. A song that was never released as a commercial or radio single in the U.S. or UK. Pretty straightforward.
2. A song that was never covered and commercially released by another artist on a major label. Tribute albums are excepted.
3. A song that was never in regular rotation on the radio. So if you heard it on the radio once, it could still be a "deep cut." If you heard it on the radio ten times, not so much. This one is harder to quantify, but still meaningful if based on decent anecdotal data.
4. Bonus tracks on deluxe reissues do not count. Deluxe first editions and B-sides count.
5. It can include songs that are/were played regularly in concert.
