the one the clash don't sing.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead
Pex Lives!

Ivan for me. Least bit of songwriting.

When it comes to Hitsville, I do like the original recording - and more than Ivan, which is fine - but what I return to is the platonic perfection of the Katrina Leskanich version.

Joe's best ever lyric for me.
I voted Junco. A plodding song and I don't like Joe's cod-Jamaican accent.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board
Re: The GREAT Clash SURVIVOR Poll of 2019 (Sandinista)!!
Ivan for me, just doesn't have the strength of the others.
I'll defend Junco to death, top 10 Clash track for me, love it. Even if it starts a bit farty.

I didn't vote for it - but The Leader isn't that strong of a track. It's kind of catchy and the lyric is kind of playful...but it really does feel like a tossed off effort.

Comparing it to Magnificent Seven (and SAE in my opinion) is like comparing a hamburger to a steak. Both nice, but in completely different leagues.WestwayKid wrote: ↑04 Apr 2019, 3:47pmI didn't vote for it - but The Leader isn't that strong of a track.

2 votes for Something About England? Above Ivan, Junco and the Leader? I literally despair.
