(Finished January 2nd, 2026) Part 2 of The Most Underappreciated/ Unknown Songs of the 80s

Hello,

As I’m working on the best 80s ballads I want to work on the 80s most underrated songs of all-time. These are great songs that for some reason have been mostly lost to time. These songs should be more popular and better remembered now. That is unless a weirdo like me dredges them up from the past again. Enjoy!!

Special thanks to the YouTube Obscure 80s Songs Video collection. I remembered a lot of great songs and even discovered some new songs.
