Results of Retro Soundclash #28

 

Kate Bush - Running Up That Hill [ 14 ] [87.50%]

Soft Cell - Say Hello Wave Goodbye [ 2 ] [12.50%]

 

Bit of a walkover that one. Well, next up is that 80s indie disco mainstay and, once a jeans company got hold of it, #1 smash, Should I Stay or Should I Go.

 

You have until whenever I get round to announcing the results to vote!

Not The Clash's best song by miles, but hey...it's The Clash innit?

Voted for Kate, cos that is one of The Clash's worst songs ever.... :lol:

 

Now, if you'd gone for summat like "Jenny Jones", "White Riot", "White Man In Hammersmith Palais", "Complete Control" or "London Calling", different story...... ;)

kate, im not much of a fan of the clash although i respect their influence in music.

I totally agree with you but it is probably their best known song (along with Rock the Casbah)

 

Personally I prefer their dubby stuff like Bank Robber and Straight to Hell.

 

JANIE Jones tsk... ;)

 

 

No contest - Kate all the way

Voted for Kate Bush

The Mighty Bush.

 

But it would have helped if you had not nominated The Clash's I Just Called To Say I Love You, Mull Of Kintyre, Candle In The Wind, I Should Be So Lucky..... when the likes of White Man In Hammersmith Palais, London Calling, Train In Vain, White Riot, Rock The Cashbah, Guns Of Brixton, Bank Robber, etc would have made this far more difficult.

and where does it fit in with all those $h!t big audio records??

Kate Bush, definitely.

Kate Bush for the win, please and thank you. Now if it was "London Calling" or maybe even "This is Radio Clash" then it might be different... but even then probably not.

Just for the record, I prefer SISOSIG to Running Up That Hill anyway. It's still a great record, Levis re-release or not.

The Clash :cheer:

I think SISOSIG is a great record. I've danced to it more times than I care to remember!

Kate

Kate Bush for me
