The 70s/80s good music thread

Thank you to all the posts! Took me awhile to get through all the new songs I just discovered... love it! Like shooting straight music into my jugular vein.

I used to absolutely loathe this song, but the more I listen to it, the more I like it.

Its the lyrics that get me. ""Hey", I said, "you can keep my things, they've come to take me home""
 
In violent times
You shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really really ought to know
Those one-track minds
That took you for a working boy
Kiss them goodbye
You shouldn't have to jump for joy



They gave you life
And in return you gave them hell
As cold as ice
I hope we live to tell the tale
 
I've never seen you look like this without a reason
Another promise fallen through
Another season
passes by you
I never took the smile away from anybody's face
And that's a desperate way to look for someone
who is still a child

So take that look out of here, it doesn't fit you
Because it's happened doesn't mean you've been discarded
Pull up your head off the floor,
come up SCREAMING
Cry out for everything you ever might have wanted
I thought that pain and truth were things that really mattered
But you can't stay here
with every single hope you had
shattered

 
The video is as powerful as the lyrics.

When your day is long
And the night
The night is yours alone
When you're sure you've had enough
Of this life
Well hang on
Don't let yourself go
'Cause everybody cries
And everybody hurts sometimes

Sometimes everything is wrong
Now it's time to sing along
When your day is night alone (hold on)
(Hold on) if you feel like letting go (hold on)
If you think you've had too much,
of this life
Well, hang on

'Cause everybody hurts
Take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts
Don't throw your hand
Oh, no
Don't throw your hand
If you feel like you're alone
No, no, no, you're not alone

If you're on your own
In this life
The days and nights are long
When you think you've had too much
Of this life
To hang on

Well, everybody hurts
Sometimes everybody cries
And everybody hurts
Sometimes
Everybody hurts sometimes
So, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Everybody hurts
You are not alone
