The best is on Extended Play: "Cuban Slide"  My 2nd favorite happens to be from the same: "Talk Of The Town"
"Mystery Achievement" definitely is 3rd.

Chain Gang.

I picked it because it is a favorite.  Also, it is a true story.  Chrissie Hynde wrote it about the band's sudden rise to fame, and the death of members Pete Farndon and James Honeyman-Scott to drugs.

Actually "I'll Stand By You" was my favorite by far.  It was my choice for The Dad and Daughter's dance at my Daughter's wedding.

I'll go for 'Stop Your Sobbing'...a fine cover of the old Kinks song...

But all of the above are pretty good...

Back On The Chain Gang

Subject: Re: Pretenders Poll

Written By: wagonman76 on 06/02/04 at 11:36 am

It might have been early 90s, but my fav is "Night In My Veins".  That song just gets me going.  I have it on tape when they performed it on Saturday Night Live.  I seriously thought the bass player was David Spade from the show, he looked and acted just like him.  And his playing sounded like a can of rocks, I loved it.

As far as what was truly 80s, I really love "Dont Get Me Wrong".  I think thats what its called anyway.  Is it on the list?

For the ones on the list, my fave would be "Back On the Chain Gang" - though I like all of those too.

However, I ultimately said "Other" - just 'cause my alltime fave wasn't on there (shame on you Mark, lol) - "Don't Get Me Wrong." ;)

Admittedly, that's more straight pop/rock, but it made alot of our mixtapes back in the day, so it's the one I've known the longest.
