What song does this song sound like?

This has been bugging me for a couple days now. What song does the chorus of this song (Strawbs' "The Man Who Called Himself Jesus") sound like?

I swear there's another song (maybe from the '80s?) that sounds exactly like that chorus, but I can't put my finger on it: https://youtube.com/watch?v=GMKOO8C2NBg&feature=share

I figure if anyone has an answer to this, it's probably you guys.

I'm afraid I'm not able to help you here, but are you familiar with reddit? There's a subredddit called Tip Of My Tongue, which is basically a forum designed exactly for cases like this. If you want to give it a try, you can find it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/tipofmytongue/

I know the tempo is different but it reminds me of ‘Volunteers’ by Jefferson Airplane.

Also ‘All Revved Up With No Place To Go’ by Meatloaf comes to mind.

Both have (slightly ragged) shouty chorus vocals.

Not quite, I assume this isn't it, but kinda reminded me of Going Down To Liverpool, maybe because they both descend similarly.
