I'd second that. This is a fine song with fine lyrics, but you really need to express the anger of the oppressed against the Downpressor Man to really make it stir the blood, which is surely what it's for. 7 from the Nottingham jury for the original, 9 for yer woman O'Connor's version. |

This is great especially in context. Also check out the "real" original by Nina Simone, "Sinnerman".
playing this right after that awful mess is just additional torture. |
