I concur
Johnny Cash – Hurt
Only Ones - Another Girl Another Planet
Clash - Guns of Brixton
Undertones - Teenage Kicks,
Althea & Donna - Uptown Top Ranking
Simon & Garfunkel - Sounds of Silence
Pogues - Fairytale of New York
Ruts - In a Rut
Buzzcocks - Harmony In My Head
Gloria Gaynor – I Will Survive
Kylie – Can’t Get You Out Of My Head
Source ft Candi Staton - U Got The Love
Sex Pistols – Pretty Vacant
Specials - Gangsters
If RB wants to put these (plus those I've missed) into a poll then we can get voting. Should we clarify that this is not necessarily our favourite song (mine is New Dawn Fades by Joy Division) but one which we "as a WHOLE" agree is really fucking spanking?

"Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft"
The Carpenters version.
"In your mind you have capacities you know
To telepath messages through the vast unknown
Please close your eyes and concentrate
With every thought you think
Upon the recitation we're about to sing"

Simon and Garfunkel looks suspiciously out of place in that list.
Gloria Gaynor is for the laydeez and therfore not of universal appeal.
Most of today's kids don't know their Ruts from their Elbow
And the Buzzcocks' most popular ditty was 'Ever Fallen In Love'
What of those who came of age in the 90s - wot no Stone Roses? Happy Mondays? Primal Scream?
Hip hop seems underrepresented - NWA? Beastie Boys? Run DMC?

sorry, but it is dreadful... it's one of those songs people love because it's a 'classic', not because of any musical merit - i think it's a tragedy that candi's abiding legacy is such a plodding, uninteresting number, rather than the amazing early material she released.ChrisFilter said:

oh, and it's about jesus.

a big bowl of wrong
I've yet to meet anyone that doesn't like at least one Bob Marley and the Wailers track, but so far I'd go for Rock the Kasbah.
And maybe suggest Fools Gold. Both cross the dance/rock divide.

I can't believe nobody's mentioned Unfinished Sympathy...

I like a handful of Marley tracks, but i don't they're popular choices because i think he's pretty poor on the whole.
Rock The Casbah is wack. Fool's Gold is dull after the first 3 spins
