Hard-to-find no more: The impressive song library of streaming apps

Some songs were so wonderfully played and written that fans and music connoisseurs wonder why they never charted.

Such was the point of this Huffington Post article, which listed down quite a handsome number of tunes that well captured the ‘80s, when glam rock was in and tons of hairspray fashioned thick piles of hair.

However, songs on the said list, such as David Bowie's tuneful and moody "Ashes to Ashes" and "Burning Up," a fiery, upbeat tune from a then up-and-coming Madonna, were pushed aside into oblivion by smash hits that ruled the radio and the Top 40 charts in the ‘80s.

Other gems, like Queen's "Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy" and Eric Clapton's "May You Never," were not big enough to make it to the iconic artists' compilation albums, leaving frustrated music lovers thinking of taking trips to specialty record bars or rare-item stores just to get a hold of these tunes, no matter how far and wide and tedious the search can get.

Music aficionados shouldn't fret, though. Digital copies of these songs exist somewhere along the infinite cloud. All it takes is hitting the search bar, or sifting through the sea of music streaming sites and online radio channels.

For the discriminating, curious, and adventurous tastes, music from niche artists are just a few taps away, and so are relatively unknown tracks and covers by icons back when they were fledging artists. What was once close to being unimaginable has indeed arrived, and waiting to be explored.
