Which punk song, in your opinion, is the most anthemic - is catchy, has a driving rhythm and makes you wanna get up and shout along?

Suspect device is contagious.
Had it in my head for two days non-stop :|
But I'm going with blitzkrieg pop,
although repetitive and overrated it's the sheer joy of shouting
"Hey Ho! Let's go!"

And also my friend says it practically everytime we are going anywhere.

That is a tuffy man. I chose Blitzkrieg Bop just because...it's good and well known. But damn you for making it so hard.

You should've added a global threat "were not gonna take it".

well its got to be the ultimate
The Ramones Blitzkrieg Bop gets me up and jumping and shouting every time
i think Operation Ivy's - Knowledge is a good one too but that might just be a personal fave

I hate to say it, but the Tony Hawk games have struck home on a lot of good songs- in fact I'm pretty sure they introduced me to a lot of good bands.

The new Tony Hawk, on the other hand, features emo bands butchering classic punk songs. I had to go to the track list and turn off punk songs because I was too disgusted.
