Title: Amazing songs that are not hits
Post by: j.fco.morales on August 05, 2013, 03:51:27 AM
I know a lot of amazing songs by amazing artists that are not hit songs, though they're amazing.

It's a surprise to hear christian music and find amazing singers and HUGE melodies and production.
Here's two of my favourites christian songs that would sound amazing on pop radio:

Dan Muckala produced this and even charted on the Hot 100:

And I also think this one is really good, maybe needs some extra energy on the chorus but the verses are really good:

Britney Spears - Overprotected

No entry in German charts for example so it had so much potential.

I was thinking about other's people music, but it's OK.

BSB's circa 1999-2000 have AMAZING songs!

Yes, this could've been more succesful! At least it got 13 million YouTube views :D

Love the production of the song, it's so crazy :D

I never liked this song, as much as I wanted to. I guess I wanted them to come back with a huge Cheiron style anthem again and this to me seemed like a leftover album track from No Strings Attached.

I think BT did a great job with Pop.
I always thought it was based around Madonna's Music, sounds very alike to me.

And the song really blew my mind, I actually think I decided to start making music when I heard that song.

Agreed on both. "Friday I'll Be Over U" has such a huge chorus, had P!nk recorded it I'm sure it would've been a hit. As for "Smile", it's a travesty that it wasn't big for Avril, such a shame.

"Smile" still and utter completely rules in epic proportions until the end of time.

Umm. Yeah. True story.
