Re: ROUND 8 - London Calling - Side Two
I'd say this is a head/heart decision but both are being pulled in the same two directions.

Clampdown was my decision to go, and I instantly regretted it.
Re: ROUND 8 - London Calling - Side Two
SB, only because Clampdown is one of my favorite songs of any band ever.

After voting for Spanish Bombs this entire time, I fucked up and accidentally voted for Clampdown.
LET ME SWITCH MY VOTE!!!!

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.
Re: ROUND 8 - London Calling - Side Two
Fancy already voting off the best song eh?
Sticking with SB.

Re: ROUND 8 - London Calling - Side Two
I've also switched mine. I've just had to do two hours overtime, so that'll help Clampdown.

Re: ROUND 8 - London Calling - Side Two
I wanted to vote Clampdown, A) because SB is a phenomenal song, and b) beto used Clampdown is his presidential campaign announcement music, which irritated me. But. Clampdown is just so good.

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!

Clampdown sums up everything the Clash are about, it has it all.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Yep mumbled lyrics and a bombastic tune.
