Any song that can rhyme "Antichrist" and "anarchist" with a (reasonably) straight face gets my vote.
An-ar-chy!

Good poll, Mr. Vegas! I'm going with "Pretty Vacant" myself.

I meant to put a few more songs on the poll, but I voted for Pretty Vacant.

Last Januaury I was on my way home from a DJ gig, and stopped in a bar for a beer. Lo and behold, the bar was just getting ready for its monthly "Name That Tune" contest! To boot, a stray barfly was looking for a tag team partner. We kicked some serious a**, taking no prisoners. It was to the point that I was giving my free drink tickets to other people and the guy running the contest was getting pi$$ed off because I was getting most of the songs in about 2 notes. The barfly was my new best friend, as he was drinking top shelf stuff as a result of our winnings (the free drink tickets each round). So, for the final round, the guy tells everyone in the bar he's going to stump me, and on comes a punkish tune I honestly was not familar with. I had heard a certain punk song a couple times before and simply said it's name, figuring it's be the best guess I could make... "Anarchy In The U.K." The guy screamed a word I won't repeat here, and then handed me another $20 in free drink tickets, which I simply handed to my barfly partner and left the place, having nothing left to prove. It was one of those times in life where the simplest decision ("Hmm, I think I'll go have a beer") turned into a very fun and awesome experience. You know what I voted for.

How long have we got to decide ? . What a tricky one ? . "Belsen was a Gas" I suppose today it would be classed as racist . Then there is "Silly Thing" , great chorus . "Problems" and "No Feelings" are also classics .
Ps Dont wanna rub it in but I'm seeing them live (Manchester) in 3 weeks .

Good stuff.

"Well ! WELL !" Okay then ? . How was the Sex Pistols live at Manchester MEN arena (same venue as WWE Smackdown/ECW a few weeks earlier) . It was packed to the rafters , not a seat in the house . Support some band that played about 6 reggae styleish numbers . Mainly boring . Then some rapper rave DJ's , yes at a punk gig . God it was even more boring . Why not have the Buzzcocks or The Damned as support ? . Anyone was better than rave ? . T-shirts again £20 (about $30) same as WWE prices . The Pistols were great started with Pretty Vacant and ended with Anarchy in the UK . In between songs like Liar , Submission , Bodies , Problem , EMI , God Save The Queen , Stepping Stone , No Fun , Holidays in the Sun etc . They were great ,brillant guitar work . Well worth £47 (about $70) . Its something I will never forget . Never did Belsen Was A Gas or Silly Thing probably the only disappointment . Tonight is Motorhead , Joan Jett & Alice Cooper at the same venue . I am not going though .
