Of course not, Axel wrote that.

Won't Back Down- Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers
Train in Vain- The Clash

My favorite track from “London Calling”. When we first got a demo copy to play in the store, we couldn’t figure out what song it was since it wasn’t listed on the album cover. We eventually figured it out once we looked at the record label but it was perplexing for a few minutes.

Gotta add these to my '80s list:

Love is the Drug - Grace Jones
Money For Nothing - Dire Straits
Voodoo Chile (Slight Return) - SRV & Double Trouble

Slayer - Behind the Crooked Cross.
[SUB][HUM][ANS] - Subvert City
Minor Threat - I Don't Wanna Hear It

Rainbow in the Dark & Last in Line ----Dio
Danger Zone
Total Eclipse of the Heart
Down Under
What’s Love Got to Do with It
Careless Whisper
Rebel Yell
Africa - Toto

Ripping off the band aid
