Johnny Cash - Hurt

Definitely agree! On the anniversary of his death, I watched that video 6 times during the day. What a powerful and emotional song in his hands.....

And a couple more:

* Holy Cow - Work (lyrics: work....work...work...work....work...work...eat....sleep...work...work......, continuosuly over a droning guitar and percussion a la metal banging. Crescendos to a scream of work....work....eat....sleep....and DIIIIIIEEEEEEEE) :) Kind of how I've been feeling recently :(

* Gordon Lightfoot - Carefree Highway, Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald

I saw a band called Holy Cow a long time ago (opening for someone -- Shriekback, perhaps? Don't honestly remember). I wonder if that's the same band.

Could be, they are from the NE/Atlantic area. They are kind of metal/industrial goth, and the lead singer sounded like old Bauhaus-era Peter Murphy....a LOT.

They used to play Providence, RI a lot, there is/was a good alt club there, forgot the name at the moment.

Don McLean - American Pie. Too bad he was a two hit wonder.

Gawd I always hated that song...

INXS - "Don't Change"

Agreed. I like INXS alot.

Some more that struck my ears today.

XTC -- "Senses Working Overtime", "Love On A Farmboy's Wages", "Mayor Of Simpleton"

Echo & The Bunnymen -- "My Kingdom" (Really, the whole flip side of Ocean Rain is pretty much perfect.)

Agreed (need to listen to more Echo and The Bunnymen)
