What were your other two choices?

Sarcasm does not become you.

Hateful.
Straight To Hell.
Mustapha Dance.

Some of my favourite tracks.

London Calling. Am I the only one that finds the rest painfully cheesy?

Train in Vain, Lost in the Supermarket and Guns of Brixton I guess.

London Calling is pretty cheesy itself.

Yeah, I like that one too.

It is, but not painfully.

I find it destroys the integrity of an album to place emphasis on certain songs. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with having favorites, but I've always been against the purposeful division of an album into singles and filler tracks. Anyways, London Calling is a great record. Too difficult for me to pick out what I like when all of it is so solid.

Spanish Bombs, Clampdown, and Death or Glory.

I don't bloody know.

I went with Hateful, Rudy Can't Fail and Guns of Brixton. I think Rudy Can't Fail is my favourite but the other 2 could cahnge at any time.
