Best Mescaleros song - vote it out

Post by msza2 »

Has this ever been done for the Meskies like it has for the Clash? Like, list your top 3, then we assign point values to each rank and see how it shakes out?

1. Mondo Bongo
2. X-Ray Style
3. Global


1 = 3 points
2 = 2 points
3 = 1 point

Sorry to be a wet blanket here, but I really can't stand these types of games. Really bug me. Usually can't understand them anyway. Fucking maths. Sorry chaps. Carry on.

All right! Looks like some favorites are emerging, here's the top 3 so far.

1. Get Down Moses (13 pts)
2. Coma Girl (10)
3. Bhindi Bhagee (8)

I'll sort them out better on Monday when I'm supposed to be working :cool:

I can't throw stones since it isn't on my list, but where's Blackhawk Down Minstrel Boy??
