| Last night I found myself in agreement with an Arsenal fan ( a very rare
experience as they are noted more for their anoraks than any semblance
of taste ), and we both thought that out "all time favourite single of
all time " was "Anarchy in the UK" by those cheeky chappies The Sex Pistols.

Hmmm, difficult one this... it should really be something by The
Church I think, but then I remembered 'Mersey Paradise' by The Stone
Roses a timeless classic.

| Almost impossible, final vote goes for Bulletproof!(Adrian Sherwood 7"

sort of thang.

| A tough one this, but I managed to narrow it down to three:
The Order of Death - Public Image Ltd
Atomic - Blondie
World Leader Pretend - REM
I guess if push came to shove, I'd settle for World Leader Pretend.

^^^^^^^^^
a great song, I was trying to explain the significance of Edwyn
Collins' new single to some people at the w/e; 'You know he _was_ Orange
Juice,', 'Who?', 'Orange Juice, they did that great track, Rip It Up',
'Never heard of it' , '$%^%&%^& heathens !'....
... then it came on the Radio ! and from the blank look on the peoples
faces I could believe they'd never heard it before %^/

| Have to say Edwyn Collins is jolly good esp live. Saw him twice at the
Mean Fiddler about 4/5 years ago. Great nights and only 30 min walk home
then (about 8hr drive now!). Why do they have such a fabulous venue in
a transport desert?
PS. My faves are usually:
Ain't Nobody - Rufus & Chaka Khan
Say Hello, Wave Goodbye - Soft Cell
In the Ghetto - Nick Cave

| Why not ask a simple question like "Why are we here?"
Has to be Rebel Rebel but this is closely followed by Wish by Nine inch
Nails.
Other contenders:
Down by the Water Polly Harvey
20th Century Boy T Rex
Don't Dream It's Over Crowded House
Come into our house - The Morgans (avail on Diversity Records on 7" Gate
fold and CD formats!)
The list is nigh on endless.

Yes , I know its a tricky one, but if you've been in the pub all evening
things seem , somehow simpler. With that in mind , I might attempt the
"Why are we here ?" conundrum tonight.

| 1310.13 | | FILTON::BARKER_E | Ummm... | Thu Jul 13 1995 16:49 | 9 |
| Yes ! I've always wanted to be asked this question, don't know why,
must be getting sadder by the day.
Absolute Beginners - The Jam
Marked the beginning of their final musical phase, 3 minutes of musical
brilliance and it evokes so many memories. Most people will remember
other Jam tracks before this one but for me this is the one, with about
200 others very close behind.
|
| 1310.14 | | CBHVAX::CBH | Lager Lout | Thu Jul 13 1995 17:04 | 4 |
| for me, it'd be just about anything by the rock bands of the early 70s,
or the dodgy synth pop bands of the early '80s.

| Haven't got a clue what my all-time favourite is. I don't think I have one.
There are a few songs that I can go back to again and again, indifferent
genres, so I guess we're talking about;
Pictures of Matchstick men - Status Quo
Anything off of Reign in Blood - Slayer
Dead end street/Waterloo Sunset - The Kinks
Hey Jude - The Beatles
Dalliance - The Wedding Present
Here comes your man - The Pixies
....oh this is stupid, I'll be here all day...
|
| 1310.16 | | CBHVAX::CBH | Lager Lout | Fri Jul 14 1995 11:21 | 16 |
| Okay, more realistic attempt, leaving out current faves:
Going Underground - The Jam
Smash it Up - The Damned
Overkill - Motorhead
Transylvania - Iron Maiden
Street Creature - Toyah
Images - Hawkwind
Ivo - Cocteau Twins
Over To You - Black Sabbath
Hymn - Ultravox
Got to be Gordon's - The Macc Lads
etc,

by Kermit the frog and Ralph the dog. It's the one from the Muppet

yess, of course, The Crumb I think it was called (or maybe The Scream),
with Thurston Moore...10 minutes of incoherent noise. Thats my kind of
record!

I don't suppose Bob Mould was involved, was he? Actually, thinking of
Bob Mould, I'd probably add virtually anything off Copper Blue to the
all time list.
Christ, this is a tricky one to answer. I've just though of another
� dozen tracks.

| Re: I hope that something better!
"But what could be better than a saucy Irish Setter,
When Puppy Love comes on strong" 8^)
Marvelous
I took a peek through my singles collection yesterday and came up with
two singles both in the charts at the same time:
World Shut your mouth! St Julian of Cope
Pretty in Pink by The Furs
How could I forget these.
Also wasn't a single but:
Will I ever understand you? Berlin (count three and pray)
Awesome.
On a more recent note.
"Give it away" is an all time classic
As is "Lithium" Both of which deserve to be in the Hall of Fame!
