Going Underground / The Dreams of Children - The Jam
One of the craziest songs ever, the true definition of MENTAL. Favorite line: "What you see is what you get, you've made your bed, you better lie in it"

(I'm Not Your) Stepping Stone - Sex Pistols
While the Monkees version was great, the Sex Pistols screamed this to near-perfection!

The New Rap Language / Love Rap - Spoonie Gee & The Treacherous Three
One amazing old-school rap track...still till this day, in my opinion, unmatchable.

I Believe / Something's Gone Wrong Again - Buzzcocks
Eight minutes of Pete Shelley & Co. at their best--both charmingly witty and horribly sad.

Whip It / Turnaround - Devo
This is a pretty simple song, it's a "get over it", "seize the day" kind of advice and pure genius.
