These are some of the best underrated songs on my playlists, but they are timeless and created by truly talented individuals. It's never too late to discover a good song, so here are 15 songs that may have been hiding from you:
1. “Broadripple is Burning” by Margot & The Nuclear So And So’s, 2008
This song is best to listen to when walking down a busy street, because you can truly witness those lyrics occur in the bustle of the streets.

2. “Free” By This Love, 2011
Once this song is on, I can never bring myself to interrupt it for anything. There’s just something so satisfying about it. Personally, I found Joe McFaddin’s voice absolutely flawless. I highly recommend this song to those interested in indie-rock or pop-punk.

3. “We Know Not” By Olivia Millerschin, 2014
If you’re into “acoustic, indie sorts-of things,” then I would highly suggest Detroit local, Olivia Millerschin. I would recommend this song, due to it’s wise lyrics, unblemished vocals and catchy tune, but you can really get that in any of Millerschin's tunes.

6. “Clarity” by Second Best, 2015
I get a high off of the energy of this song. I really enjoyed the entire EP, but this song was my favorite because of it's energetic "screw you" message.

9.”December (Again)” by Neck Deep ft. Mark Hoppus, 2016
Yes, I am talking about Blink 182's Mark Hoppus. I was crazy about the original song, but I also found the rock-twist Hoppus added to the original acoustic sound very appealing.

10. “This Place You Love” by Have Mercy, 2014
A friend introduced me to Have Mercy by initially showing me their song "Let's Talk About Your Hair." I was obsessed with that song for so long, until I needed more and discovered this song. I really love the use of imagery in the lyrics, as well as the emotions that the lead vocalist, Brian Swindle, is able to convey.

11. “Private Fears in Public Places” by Front Porch Step, 2013
I crave emotional voices, and Jake McElfresh definetly has that sphere nailed. Front Porch Step has a couple of other noteworthy songs, so if you like acoustic, indie-rock sort of things, then I would highly recommend them!
