I love this clip — from the Rolling Stones' Gimme Shelter documentary — because you can see all the raw power that Tina Turner just had flowing at all times back in the day, and because what's-his-name isn't in it.

Just to clarify my thoughts (since I've had a number of people ask me about it) re: Job and cursing God. There's a big difference between cursing God as used in Scripture and how we generally would think of cursing at God today.
Cursing someone, in the Bible, has a lot of depth to it. It's not just saying "screw you " in anger, it's got a sense of forsakenness to it. It's the opposite of a blessing, a removal of blessing. If the blessing is presence, your face shining on the person you're blessing, then a curse is absence. In some translations, Job's wife tells him to "renounce God and die," which I honestly think makes a lot more sense to modern ears.
Job says a lot of unpleasant things to and about God in his anger and grief. So do the Psalmists. A number of the Prophets. So can we. God can take it if we come to him with honest expressions of our emotion, including those not-so-nice ones directed at him. I don't think there's anything wrong with getting mad at God and saying, "How dare you, you bastard" when you suffer unjustly. You can say much worse, I think, without sinning, though I don't feel particularly inclined to give examples. But as long as it's an honest expression of your heart, I think you're doing exactly what prayer is for. You're presenting him your heart with an open hand. He can use that. Opposite of love is not hate but indifference, etc.
Job doesn't renounce God. Neither should we. But I think when you're truly suffering, you're gonna have those feelings toward God either way. He'd rather you address them with him directly than try to avoid them. Cursing at God in the modern sense is actually a great way to keep the relationship strong and not end up cursing/renouncing him in the Biblical sense.

Hei-Ran: *standing on the patio, sipping her tea, eyes closed*
Kelsang, wandering by: Hey, Hei! Whatcha doin'?
Hei-Ran: Just wait.
*a few moments pass*
Kelsang: What are we waiting for?
Hei-Ran: You'll see.
*a few more moments*
Kelsang: It's just air we're looking at Hei, I would know. I bend it.
Hei-Ran: Patience.
*few more moments*
Kelsang: Hei-Ra-
Hei-Ran, opens her eyes: Something fruity this way comes.
Rangi: *sprinting across the estate like a fucking loon*
Kelsang: Oho! I see, so she's on her way to see Kyoshi! So you're making this into a daily little show to watch! Right, Hei?
Hei-Ran: Daily? Kelsang, this is the eight time she's done that-
Kelsang: I think it's more than eight.
Hei-Ran: -today.
Kelsang: ......you may need to have a talk with her.
