On The Clash, I honestly think White Man (In Hammersmith Palais) should have been a number 1, I really do.
I defy ANYBODY to listen to this awsome song and not agree with me

Ah well, I don't drink at all, but judging by the quantum sized headache I have, you'd almost think I had done to recieve such an accolade of pain.

A magnificent seven:

A Design for Life - MSP
True Faith - New Order
Paranoid Android - Radiohead
With or Without You - U2
Won't Get Fooled Again - The Who
Wonderwall - Oasis
The Universal - Blur

All top five. Several hit the top with lesser songs (Desire, Country House...).
