There's very good reason for that though.
Is it because it's their most commercially successful but not necessarily their best song?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, it's a pretty good song mind. Pop perfection, or as near as.Is it because it's their most commercially successful but not necessarily their best song?

It's one aspect of The Buzzcocks that always seems to get ignored, the drumming is nigh perfect, rapid, with little in the way of excessive frills, and plenty of cymbal flicking (copyright some music mag I read and it always sticks in my head)

Thanks for that. It was their 5th or 6th single, not counting Spiral Scratch, most commercial & not even in my top 10, but you seem to want to judge

Any five tracks from the eleven on Love Bites, plus Everybody's Happy Nowadays.

Just keeping you right marra. It's not easy this music lark. The less enlightened do tend to struggle.

This is the SMB at it's finest. A poster who freely admits to not being a huge Buzzcocks fan, only has their greatest hits album, saw them live once then criticises fans who scoured record shops, attended proper dives to see them, ordered records, (vinyl!) from dodgy mail order sites in even dodgier fanzines & then have the audacity to not put the song he's heard of into a top 5!

I didn't like punk but could always appreciate Buzzcocks, a mile ahead of most of the shite
Who the fuck are you like? Phil spector? Fuck off
That's what you get for being honest marra, you should have googled Buzzcocks b-sides
Promises,
16 Again,
Love Is Lies
Nothing Left,
Ever Fallen In Love
Truly gutted.
Whilst all of my mates were into the pistols, the damned, the clash etc, (none of which I minded, of course), it was always the Buzzcocks, The Stranglers and Costello for me.
Just far more tuneful.
Now there's a tune, if ever there was one.
