Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door- GunsnRoses style.
Yes! A misunderstood lamentation for the abused and bereft.
It is epic without being exploitive, in my opinion.
(I scanned the thread just to see if anyone would cite it.)
Thanks.
Anything by Michael Bolton.
I am picky about 80s music, but I love that one. Sugary joy indeed.
Waylon Jennings - Revelation

Somewhere in Vietnam a 19-year-old soldier walked out of a barroom
And he said I must be seeing things that bourbon hit me like a baseball bat
In Bellfast Ireland a little lady dropped her shovel in her garden
She raced across the yard and ask her neighbor Mrs Clancy what was that
In Memphis Tennessee a teacher raised the window closest the river
And the children in her classroom swore they’d heard a choir singing down the street
In Washington DC a private secretary’s lips began to quiver
And the President just put aside his papers and rose quickly to his feet
I lay in a cheap motel in the arms of someone else’s woman
When a loud explosion rocked the room and turned the morning into night
I jumped out of bed and ran into the street with hardly any clothes on
As the sky lit up my heart stood still and I could feel my face was turnin’ white
All at once the clouds rolled back and there stood Jesus Christ in all his glory
And I realized the saddest eyes I’d ever seen were lookin’ straight at me
I guess I was awakened by the penetrating sounds of my own screamin’
And it didn’t take me long to stumble out of bed and fall down on my knees
As tears rolled down my face I cried dear God I’m thankful I was only dreamin’
And if I never go to hell Lord it’ll be because you scared it out of me
An oldie, goody
When Did You Leave Heaven? 1936

Thanks, fatima, and have a good evening...((HUGS))
And another version:
Way down in the hole – Blind Boys of Alabama
He's got the fire and the fury
At his command
Well you don't have to worry
If you hold on to Jesus' hand
We'll all be safe from Satan
When the thunder rolls
Just gotta help me keep the devil
Way down in the hole
