20 Underrated Songs That Deserve a Second Chance

Music has an incredible ability to connect with our emotions, yet some masterpieces often go unnoticed or fade into obscurity. These underrated songs deserve a second chance to shine and resonate with new listeners.

Take “Vienna” by Billy Joel, a reflective piece urging us to slow down and savor life, or “Breathe Me” by Sia, a hauntingly beautiful ballad of vulnerability and introspection. Similarly, “Set Fire to the Third Bar” by Snow Patrol and Martha Wainwright delivers raw emotion through its evocative duet.

Radiohead’s “No Surprises” offers a quietly powerful reflection on modern life, while “Hurricane” by Halsey reveals raw storytelling through its layered lyrics. “Big Jet Plane” by Angus & Julia Stone is a dreamy tune that transports listeners into a state of calm, while Cage the Elephant’s “Cigarette Daydreams” is a bittersweet exploration of love and longing.

From Coldplay’s underappreciated “God Put a Smile Upon Your Face” to the nostalgic charm of “You Get What You Give” by New Radicals, these tracks have an emotional depth that deserves recognition.

Each of these songs is a hidden gem, waiting for listeners to rediscover their brilliance and connect with the artistry within.
