These are mainly 80s songs that are great but never made the Top 40. I was and you'll be shocked by some of these songs. These are some amazing songs. As the foundation for this series of blogs I'm going to start off with a two part huffpost article. From there I'll be finding songs on my own. There are likely dozens, if not more, amazing songs that never made the Top 40. I get the song peak info from wikipedia.org most of those rankings come from Billboard. The didn't chart at all meant the song didn't even make the Top 100. Otherwise the number in parenthesis is the songs peak on the Billboard Hot 100 in America.

Don't let anyone tell you that Men At Work were a one or two hit wonder. They are 4 Top Ten songs and two #1 songs. For some reason this song didn't even make the Top 100. 58) Men At Work "Be Good Johnny" (Didn't chart at all.):
