Dire straits-  the man's too strong 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsvXSKOCUfs

Very powerful lyrics

I'm just an aging drummer boy and in the wars I used to play
And I've called the tune to many a torture session
Now they say I am a war criminal and I'm fading away
Father please hear my confession
I have legalized robbery, called it belief
I have run with the money, I have hid like a thief
Rewritten history with my armies of my crooks
Invented memories, I did burn all the books
And I can still hear his laughter and I can still hear his song
The man's too big, the man's too strong
Well I have tried to be meek and I have tried to be mild
But I spat like a woman and I sulked like a child
I have lived behind walls, that have made me alone
Striven for peace, which I never have known
And I can still hear his laughter and I can still hear his song
The man's...
And I can still hear his laughter and I can still hear his song
The man's too big, the man's too strong
Well the sun rose on the courtyard and they all did hear him say
You always were a judas but I got you anyway
You may have got your silver but I swear upon my life
Your sister gave me diamonds and I laid down with your wife
Oh father please help me for I have done wrong
The man's too big, the man's too strong

I think Goats has raised the bar with Hurt.

Had never heard 'Hurt' until I walked into the Johnny Cash Museum in Nashville a couple of years ago, mainly out of 'one more thing to do'. It was on a loop  on a screen & i stopped to watch it. Absolutely amazing, for some reason....have never seen a song & a video so well matched. Totally 1 of my favourite songs now.

Suede - Beautiful ones

An absolute belter. Another favourite of mine would be Reo Speedwagon - Keep on Loving You.
