C&L's Late Nite Music with David Gray

Babylon from White Ladder

I don't know what it is about this song. I absolutely LOVE it. Every time I hear it on the radio, I turn the volume way up and sing along. But if you ask me to make a list of my favorite songs, this won't even occur to me. But then I'll hear it on the radio and I'll kick myself for not remembering to download it for my MP3 player.

Are there any stealth favorites of yours? Ones that maybe don't instantly come to mind, but as soon as you hear it, you're reminded of how much you love it?

[P.S. Our sister site Newstalgia has The Roy Young Band recorded live at the Paris Theatre in 1972.]

Ride - Vapour Trail. I have always liked this song since I first heard it many moons ago. Never bought the album, never bought the tape, never bought the CD, never downloaded it. Guess what I'm doing tonight?

Gotta go with:
Well, I'd consider these as such when sticking them into bar jukeboxes and watching the reaction of locals who'd never heard them before, then coming back weeks later to play again and people thank you for playing them.

"If I get myself together,
You'll have the blues, not me."

This song has some great, memorable lines, and it always catches me by surprise when I hear it on the radio.

How can you not love a song with the line

"Bad news comes so beautiful"?

This video isn't as good as the recorded song.
