Harmony in My Head - Buzzcocks (Steve Diggle)

European Female - The Stranglers (JJ Burnel)
I sometimes have to check who is singing on Stranglers tracks, same with some Libertines.

That's a great example, because I love Marriott's voice, but that is one of my favorite Small Faces songs.

Hello,

Too Tough To Die - Dee Dee Ramone (granted it's an alternative take - Joey sang lead on the proper release of the album).

Not sure if this one has been mentioned or not, but I've always liked it. They went 3rd string with Woody taking the lead.

Yeah, I've always loved the energy of it. Saw Subs with Paul on bass a couple of years back and they played it then. Lost count of the number of times I've seen the Subs, they always put on a good show.
