Wasn't 'Drugs' originally called 'Electricity'? Perhaps that's what Kathryn's thinking of...?!

A toughie. A lot of peeps consider it a weak Pixies song but I've always liked it a lot (theres a really weird staggered rythym part in during one of the "Tiiiiiiiiiiime"'s). But Echo came back with a good album so I'm going with them.

I don't think I'm familiar with the DCFC song, but I doubt it could be better than the FF song. So I say "Take Me Out."

President Of What? is the first track on Chords. Even though it's what I think is the best dcfc song ive heard, i think POW and TMO are evenly matched. They have cool initials, too.

In this case, I'll take The Cars over Iggy. "Candy-O" was one of their best songs and "Candy" isn't how I like to think of Jim Osterberg.
