I was looking through some of Tom Jones old songs and came upon Delilah. I remember singing to the chorus of this song as a kid. I never realized he killed his flame out of jealous rage in the song.

Not that I’m from the 70s or anything but thunder doesn’t only happen when it’s raining.
“Tax Man” by the Beatles.
(NSFW) Liquor and whores. That song even the title is offensive.
@gondwanalon Is it politically incorrect if its true. LOL Never heard it before.
@talljasperman Not sure that is an oldie.
@dxs I think the song has to do with telling a guy to go out and have his fun but he is going to lose her and never feel fulfilled. I may be wrong but that is the way I took it.
Relax don’t do it. Frankie goes to Hollywood. Back then it caused a stir.
“Little Girls” by Oingo Boingo
Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves.
Half breed.
Both were done by Cher.
@kritiper WoW! It’s not an oldie but it certainly not PC ever. It it a pedophile song. .
@rojo Wow! Finally a song I can use when I’m on I95. Never heard of it before but I can see how it will brighten my mood as I drive on 95 LOL. (The Asshole Song) I wish I could give you tons of points for that.
^^^Combine that song with any film produced by the dash cam in an earlier post and you have a sure-fire winner!
One that was politically incorrect (as in not following the gov. script or popular public opinion) when it was written was/is John Walker’s Blues by Steve Earle. John Walker was also known as “The American Taliban” for those of you who, like me, have failing memories or are on drugs
I did not get much air play, particularly here in Texas, because of it.
Patti Smith’s Rock n Roll N*****r particularly with the “Babelogue” intro probably isn’t going to win any awards for political correctness.
Darktown Strutters Ball.
Minnie the Moocher.
