I can do you better than just 1 new song, Lauryn Hill's Unplugged is entirely new songs. She's a complicated artist, especially when it comes to live performances, and it didn't lead to any hits but it's certainly unique.

Then there's also artists doing covers that wouldn't be released on any studio album, like Nirvana covering David Bowie's The Man Who Sold the World or Florence + The Machine covering Johnny Cash's Jackson (and bringing up Josh Homme from Queens of the Stone Age to duet for that song)

I was just listening to Miseducation yesterday, I don't know how I've never heard of this. Thanks! Exactly what I was trying to describe.

Be warned, it's nothing like Misseducation and is not considered good.

Also, doing some extra digging Pearl Jam played State of Love and Trust on their unplugged performance a few months before the studio version was released as a single for a movie soundtrack

Thanks for the warning, I'll go in with an open mind!

Yeah, that's my favorite version of State of Love and Trust. I appreciate how different they made the songs for that performance, especially Porch.
