I am always saying: Ooh, I love that band.  I say it all of the time when Love is the most misappropriately over-used word in the history of human language.

We all know I love Pink Floyd and the Clash, but those are given classics no one should do without and therefore granted immunity.  I also love the B-52s, Primal Scream and Morphine, and this is what I am talking about-  I love these bands, but they don't "move" me.

If I had to pick my top 5 movers (and in fairness I'll do it alphabetically): Agent Orange, Ballboy, Buffalo Tom, Emmet Swimming, Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet.

So, If I tell you I love "That Particular Band" and it isn't one of these 10, I'm probably exaggerating.

Agent Orange, Ballboy, Buffalo Tom, Emmet Swimming, Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet, pink floyd, the clash, b-52s, morphine, primal scream

I know that there is one particular band that you love more than any other.

Do you remember what song you heard of theirs that made them your favorite?  I do. 

But, Washington Bullets is not it.  The first Clash song I remember loving was Charlie Don't Surf. 

Yeah, you might think it would have been something like Police on my back, but it's not. 

I seem to like the Clash songs no one else does.  Oh well, all the more for me.

Be sure to check out the Ministry of Whitewash for more Clash goodness.
