My favourite thing about all these polls is everybody picks songs by artists that I enjoy but never the songs I'd personally go for. And that's good.

But also I'm drunk. And that is all.

I think maybe "Victim of Love" anyway

X-Ray Spex or Siouxsie, oh boy

CVB for the last verse of the lyrics, which are some of my all time favorites of anyone ever

Honestly I probably prefer X-Ray Spex, but I couldn't not click on Tom Lehrer.

Old standby time: "Fortunate Son"

“identity” which is great because of/in spite of its resemblance to “25 or 6 to 4”

I've Come for My Award is a pretty dextrous composition, those Pete Thomas-ish drum shuffles going way too fast, that I wish a remastered/remixed version that actually makes the background more audible would exist.
