    Lesser known great songs?

    There're are probably lots of great songs I've never listened to, because they never became mainstream and I'm not enough of a musicophile.

    So how about sharing some of the 'music you love that most people have probably not heard about'?

    Here're a few songs which qualify imo:

    Iggy Pop & Goran Bregovic, In The Deathcar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Zv_lBLU5Vo

    Django Reinhardt, Les Yeux Noirs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ua-MWLJvGvM

    Enzo Enzo, Juste Quelqu'un De Bien: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bo16qG-a9WM

    Giorgio Conte, Gne Gne: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wd5r3mEK2A

    Gogol Bordello, Start Wearing Purple: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SkkIwO_X4i4

    Try Gustavo by Mark Kozelek, ideally the Live at Biko version. A fascinating story song, although with a language warning if that bothers anyone...

    Good grief I haven't heard that purple song in years... Radio One used to love it!

    A mate of mine recently put me onto a country and blues singer named Paul Thorn who is well worth a listen - have a go at "guess I'll just stay married" for a bit of fun and "temporarily forever mine" for something more melancholy.

    Very talented songwriter.

    Agreed. And they came across very well in a recent interview on 6 Music.
