Actually, I hated Wonderwall long before I knew it was considered a good song, or even that it was overplayed. It kept me from checking out WTSMG for a long time.

Still, it's not a bad song and there's much worse in their discography too, mainly from that unmentionable 1985 album of theirs.
Even excluding Cut The Crap, there's enough junk on Give 'Em Enough Rope and London Calling that I wouldn't be able to call Casbah (or the almost-as-bad SISOSIG) the worst Clash song.
