I prefer Moz's version to The Jam's
Bengali an Platforms and Breaking Up The Family are pants. Also, America Is Not The World made me scared to listen to the rest of YATQ
Welll I suppose you do call it "Breaking Up the Family" but its still no excuse and how you can prefer Moz's version of a bona-fide classic is beyond me. Are you American? Cos the lyrics of Breaking (sic) conjure up, to me, a peculiarly British imagery of delidated comprehensive schools.
Possibly agree on America Is Not The World though
Heres my list;
Golden Lights
Work is A Four Letter Word
Ouija Board, Ouija Board
Get Off The Stage (well its embarrassing now that he's nearly 50 himself isn't it!)
We Hate It When Our Friends... (only redeeming feature being "and if they're Northern, that makes it even worse")
Dagenham Dave
The Operation (more pertinently the drum solo!
Do Your Best And Don't Worry
Ambituous Outsiders
Papa Jack
He Cried
Roy's Keen (a catchy tune ruined by the insipid lyrics)
Sorrow Will Come In the End.
This Is Not Your Country.
All The Lazy Dykes (beautifully sung but...)
America Is Not The World (ditto)
You Know I Couldn't Last (Moan moan moan. MOAN. Moz stop moaning about something which few people can relate to)
Noise Is The Best Revenge (ok never officially recorded but... still cac)
The Public Image
Must say I ain't too familiar with the ROTT B-sides apart from those off You Have Killed Me and Ganglord (oh and Song From Under...) so the jusy's still out.
