These are not your garden variety type but are the gut-wrenching, heart-ripping, soul-crushing, nerve-jangling dream-destroyer songs that knock you to the floor and leave you feeling screwed, blued and tattooed:

Bill Deal and the Rhondels - “I’ve Been Hurt”

Allman Brothers Band - “Whipping Post”

Kenny Rogers - “Ruby Don’t Take Your Love to Town”

Tom Petty - “Stop Dragging My Heart Around”

Bryan Adams - “Cuts Like a Knife”
