Bye Riot. It's a great punk song but there's louder and faster and the politics of the lyrics are open to wilful misinterpretation.

Re: ROUND 4 - The Clash - Side One
Jumping on the London's Burning train at this point. Similar in fire and fury to White Riot, but not as good. Did I ever mention my old band used to cover White Riot? Love that song.

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

I'd hate to see London's Burning leave so soon.

Re: ROUND 4 - The Clash - Side One
I decided to be really contrarian and pick Janie Jones because at this point I love all of the songs.

Re: ROUND 4 - The Clash - Side One
That ALMOST got my pick, but I thought it was enough of a different look that I want to keep it in the mix one more round and have a really interesting Janie Jones/Remote Control/one of LB or WR face-off.

A lot of these races are getting to where it could be a coin flip for me.

Easy...LB.
Remote Control was their little punk opera and gets bad rap because the band disagreed with it being released as a single.

There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Remote Control, because of the two Controls, Complete is better.

Re: ROUND 4 - The Clash - Side One
Whilst I live some of the lyrics to WR - are you going backwards etc.
It's fairly tuneless.

White fucking Riot is losing? Fuck that shit.
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.
