We had recently talked in this countdown about tough subject matter in songs. This song is the highest ranking song involving content that is some pretty deep stuff. Whatever you make it about – drug addiction, teen runaways – this song is considered by some to be an anthem for this types of subjects and the song still carries a lot of punch to this day. We break into the top 5 with the #5 song in the countdown – Runaway Train by Soul Asylum.
