My old man’s a dustman - lonnie donegan

The awful truth laid bare that someone’s dad had a job to take out someone else’s rubbish on a weekly basis. Also the fact that he had awful trousers and resided in council accommodation

Bowie's Who Can I Be Now? springs to mind. I got the feeling he ditched it because he'd let his guard down for once.

Hurt, by Trent Reznor, but covered by Johnny Cash. Watch the YT Video. When he speaks of the pain he caused his wife, you know he means it in every word. Doesn't get more personal than that.

Not personal in as much as I know he could not have known him, but "Vincent" by Don MacLean seems to capture something very special.

It's very personal to me, and I imagine many other people.
