How about this?
My CHR (WIOG) played "Champagne High" by Sister Hazel during their Throwback Lunch in the noon hour. They also played "Sixth Avenue Heartache" by The Wallflowers - which, while not quite as obscure, is still also a pretty surprising choice (I was just shocked that they played that rather than "One Headlight").

I've heard "Piece of Me" by Britney Spears twice in the last two days on my local pop station.

Heard a whole ton of them on WWIS (Black River Falls) after AT40 was over with. I can't remember all of them but they included:
Crazy - Kenny Rogers Bless The Broken Road - Rascal Flatts One Step Closer To You - Gavin Christopher (long version) Swear To Your Heart - Russell Hitchcock What You Won't Do For Love - Bobby Caldwell I Am By Your Side - Corey Hart The Things We Do For Love - Amy Grant For The First Time - Kenny Loggins Too Much, Too Little, Too Late - Johnny Mathis & Deneice Williams It's A Miracle - Barry Manilow Top Of The World - The Carpenters
Honestly - some of those songs were all over the radio back in the day, but nowadays, receive very little recurrent airplay.

Wow, I should listen to WWIS on early Friday evenings, as they tend to play many obscure songs (at least songs that radio rarely touches anymore, even if they were all but played out during their chart run). Here are some of the ones I heard today:
Tell It Like It Is - Heart I Drove All Night - Celine Dion Paradise - Sade If You Asked Me To - Patti LaBelle The Gift - Jim Brickman f/Collin Raye & Susan Ashton (wasn't this a Christmas song?) Back Here - BBMak Don't Talk To Strangers - Rick Springfield Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head - BJ Thomas Friends In Love - Johnny Mathis w/Dionne Warwick Say A Prayer - Breathe Whole New You - Shawn Colvin
The other song was an instrumental version of a song that I've heard plenty of times before, but I can't quite remember the title. It's right on the tip of my tongue, though. It has a jazz flavor to it and the lyrics I remember went something like "I want you to know these are the good times" Not sure who it was by - may have been Michael McDonald - whoever it was, it was in the upper half of his vocal range. Anyone know the song?
EDIT: Just figured it out - it was "She Works Hard For The Money". The Donna Summer version doesn't have a jazz sound to it, but the version I heard did.

The Gift - Jim Brickman f/Collin Raye & Susan Ashton (wasn't this a Christmas song?) I always thought it was one of those songs, like Same Old Lang Syne and My Favorite Things, that was not intended by the writer/performer to be a Christmas song, but got lumped into that category over time.

I should probably post before I forget these...
Heard these on Z100 in the past few weeks: Kylie Minogue - Slow Kylie Minogue - (another song that I can't remember the title of, I'll have to see if I can find it later) Crystal Waters - Gypsy Woman Justin Bieber - All That Matters Austin Mahone - Say You're Just A Friend Corina - Temptation Flo Rida f/ Nelly Furtado - Jump Cher Lloyd - With Ur Love Robin Thicke f/ Kendrick Lamar - Give It 2 U (not obscure but considering how fast radio seemed to drop it, was surprised to hear it after not hearing it at all for a few months... I've heard this twice in the past two weeks now)
(there's a few more that I can't think of right now)
Heard these on other stations: Jason Derulo - Breathing Gym Class Heroes - The Queen And I Backstreet Boys - Incomplete Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood Paramore - Crushcrushcrush
And then there's these, which probably aren't as obscure, but I was still really surprised to hear them considering I barely hear these on radio anymore.
David Guetta f/ Kid Cudi - Memories N'sync - Pop Wiz Khalifa - Black And Yellow Justin Timberlake - Lovestoned

I heard "Lucky Strike" by Maroon 5 on my local Hot AC station. Why wasn't this a single? It sounded great on radio.

94.3 The Shark
Five Finger Death Punch - House of the Rising Sun Judas Priest - Redeemer of Souls Bear Hands - Giants
Given that they normally play nothing post 2005, these new songs were surprising.

WGHN is playing "I'll Try" by Jonatha Brooke right now as I post. A pleasant surprise, as it is one of my favorite songs of all time!
