Fantastic Followups

[christopher575]

Years ago I noticed that a few of my favorite songs were singles released next after that band's signature hit. Songs I prefer to those hits. But of course I never sat down to compile a list. I decided to today after susandennis mentioned the show/idiom The Life of Riley, which happens to be one of the examples I thought of. But I'm surprised I could only think of four when I set out to try. Maybe you can think of some? It's a matter of taste, of course, otherwise the ones in column three would have been even bigger hits.

Band	Huge Hit Song	Better Followup
Urge Overkill	Girl, You'll be a Woman Soon	Positive Bleeding
Peter Gabriel	Sledgehammer	Big Time
Fastball	The Way	Fire Escape
Lightening Seeds	Pure	The Life of Riley
