Definitely. Based on Spotify metrics, it's not even the most popular song on the boxset - The Radio Saved My Life Tonight is.

I always thought it was a bit overrated by diehards just because of the fact that it didn't make it to the album. Nice little song, but nothing special. I'd call it the "Cadillac man effect".

Very well put! Maybe it was different when it was discovered by fans during that era since not many bootleg or unreleased songs were to be found in the late 80's. But I loved it at first listen and then it fell flat on me as time progressed.

As for the overlooked ones though, the final version of Saturday Night just bugs me. The demo version is a lot easier to sing. There are long notes though but the demo version just didn't need much control unlike the original version.
As for the Jon's solo songs, I prefer Sad Song Night and I Talk to Jesus. I feel like they are more overlooked than Hush, even thought they were released.

Cadillac Man is a fabulous song, much better than all the b-sides of New Jersey.

I like it a lot, but the chorus is pretty much ripped from Smokie's "Living Next Door To Alice" (which I like as well, so I don't care much about it)
