Hold the Line by Toto? (I haven't read the hints yet, so I could be way off. I just wanted to try based off of the first post.)

The listener is admonished to regard with no apprehension the symbolic embodiment of the permanant cessation of vital functions.

Any guesses? This shouldn't be too hard. I'm assuming people are bored with the game instead of stumped. If anyone is trying and needs a clue let me know.

Still interested, Jerry, but haven't a clue. Neither do the guys in my art/writing group with whom I just shared your puzzle.

Would that be Johnny Cash's "Long Black Veil"?

Okay, then.
Spectral formation, contained by s/he whom the narrator addresses.

Title is four words long
First set of lyrics:
One person bearing XY chromosomes, and who wears the narrator's footwear as his own, moves through an intersection without heeding proper traffic procedures
Also, printed media is not to be trusted this evening
However, current events descend upon s/he whom the narrator addresses
Seraphs descend as if they were the proverbial "cats and dogs"
Also affection can be found in the total distance between here and Paradise
Chorus:
Contained by the person addressed, exists the measure of a mobile duration
Also, that duration (using a feminine pronoun) fails to vanish
Spectral formation, contained by s/he whom the narrator addresses
Also, that duration (in the feminine tense) fails to vanish...

Second set of lyrics:
Competition ensues (as in an athletic or vehicular endeavor), the narrator expresses feelings of kinship with the addressed party
Also, the narrator hears his/her motor cease operation
The narrator's emotional state is that of desiring the addressed party's company, desiring an escape (perhaps by foot)
Celestial bodies descend like the proverbial "cats and dogs"
Also, affection isn't transferable for free [Or, colloquially: affection exists for the taking, but nobody seems to want it]
[repeat chorus]
Forget departure, That defies logic Considering the totality of mega-powered males in the addressed party's possession Only subtract/remove measurements as seen on a clock Also affection can be found in the total distance between here and Paradise
[repeat chorus]

Additional hint:
Popular song in the 1980s, though not in the American Top 40.
