Surprise - the Dead Kennedys fans like the hectoring dirge over the classic melody.

Way to ally yourself with your oppressors, you neocon lackey.

This whole poll thing is totally worth it for this and the disco sea shanty.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Bold assertion: Next round, I'll be voting for SISOSIG to go over KYR. Joe clumsily calling out police violence is better than Mick's radio pop.
i don't want to give away my vote before it's cast, but I'm definitely of a like mind here.
I might as well now that I’m thinking about it.

KYR for me, the recorded version sounds stilted, especially next to the beast of a version from FHTE.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Car Jamming is way more fun to sing along to than KYR.
That is a falsehood.
Yeah. Chuck is insane.
No he's right here.
I think Car Jamming has better lyrics than 75% of Combat Rock.
