Argh. This is hard. really hard.

Maybe Lost in the Supermarket, Spanish Bombs and Rudie Can't Fail. Maybe.

Great song, too, what's it replace?

Had to oust Train In Vain, the other two are my favorite songs on the album.

Death or Glory by far, one of favorite Clash songs in general.

Hateful, Rudie Can't Fail and the Card Cheat.

And if I ever hear the title track again it'll probably be a gazillion years too soon.

I don't know if I ever really hear that song on the radio or anything, to be honest...

My favorites are "Guns of Brixton," because of its ominous guitar melodies; "Brand New Cadillac," since I love punkabilly; and "Death or Glory," for its fast, catchy vocals.

voted The Card Cheat and Train in Vain - forgot to tick Wrong 'Em Boyo. But I like virtually all of them.

My three:

"Spanish Bombs"
"The Guns of Brixton"
"Lost in the Supermarket"

"Spanish Bombs" because I absolutely loved the lyrics, "The Guns of Brixton" because of the rhythm and quirkiness of the song, and "Lost in the Supermarket" because I was a whiny 13-year old when I first heard that album and I felt like the song spoke to my raging emotions or something.

I basically love everything on the album, except for a couple of songs in the last third like "Koka Kola" and "The Card Cheat," which are still alright. They just don't match the ridiculously high quality of the other songs on the album. I went with the title track, "Lost In The Supermarket" and "Death Or Glory," but it was tough.
