Haven’t listened to Metalbox in its entirety for a long time but reading these lists they make a fantastic playlist in any order.

Rockaway Beach
Sheena Is a Punk Rocker
Teenage Lobotomy
Here Today, Gone Tomorrow

If "It's a Long Way Back to Germany" had been on the record, it would push the bottom two down.

2. Sheena Is a Punk Rocker
3. Teenage Lobotomy
4. Rockaway Beach
5. Ramona

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop

Ramona, I can't get on with because the opening line fails to work for me, even as some of their other more Archie-ish lyrics do.

It's on the follow up album. It's a great track though. Was it due to be on Rocket to Russia?
