I can't be bothered with remembering how to post songs.

For those who are curious to know why this song is legendary, this video explains it very well.
Not a song but an orchestral ballet, Igor Stravinsky's Le Sacre Du Printemps (Rite of Spring) was so groundbreaking and disruptive at the time that it caused a riot at the premiere. It is even unusual and sometimes bizarre for modern standards, let alone in 1913, quite ahead of it's time.
"Every cool riff has already been written by Black Sabbath. You're either playing it faster or slower or backwards, but they wrote it first." - Rob Zombie
On top of that add Dio's voice and you have a masterpiece.

Steve Earle's mentor was Townes Van Zandt. Naturally, he excels at story songs.
"Copperhead Road" is probably his most famous. He draws the generational parallels between the moonshiners of yesteryear and the pot growers of the 80s when the song was written.
It should be noted that Earle has been clean and sober since the nineties.
Now the revenue man wanted grandaddy bad
Headed up the holler with everything he had
It's before my time but I've been told
He never came back from Copperhead Road
