I've been having this discussion too. My ideas are:

Ruby Don't Take Your Love to Town - Kenny Rogers
Georgia Lee - Tom Waits
A Rose For Emily - The Zombies
Eleanor Rigby - The Beatles
Last Kiss - The Frank Wilson version not the Pearl Jam
one
Holocaust - Big Star
Unsatisfied - The Replacements

etc.
