I first heard "Working Class Hero" on an early Thanksgiving morning at a low time when I felt like nothing of the sort. It reached inside me and grabbed my heart. Like, wow, somebody gets it!
This song has always been something very personal to me and I play it every Thanksgiving so I don't forget the old times, the sad times, the bad times, the high times. So I don't forget the true human voice that was torn from our lives well too soon.
    No other song has ever touched me like that and I am so past caring whether it is a folk song or not. It can however, be a real hoot reading some of you all arguing about it so....carry on.
