Favourite Two Tone song

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Yeah, sorry for bouncing old threads and all that, but...

I went to see The Selecter last night and have to say they were excellent. Was a bit dubious about paying to watch a bunch of old farts who haven't had a hit in over a quarter of a century, but was pleasantly surprised. And Pauline Black is still looking pretty good after all this time (I guess jumping up and down every night for 30 years would keep you fit).

Even got a kiss off the lovely Ms Black at the end. - (If they were going to charge 20 bleeding Euros for a T-shirt I felt it was my duty to negotiate for a few "extras" to be thrown in.)

Is 'Three Minute Hero' still a worthless grating piece of shit?

They opened with it - got it out of the way before anyone was paying attention...

Ghost Town
Rat Race
both CLASSICS but for me it is:

The Specials - Friday Night, Saturday Morning

Out of bed at eight am
Out my head by half past ten
Out with mates and dates and friends
That's what I do at weekends
I can't talk and I can't walk
But I know where I'm going to go
I'm going watch my money go
At the Locarno, no

When my feet go through the door
I know what my right arm is for
Buy a drink and pull a chair
Up to the edge of the dance floor
Bouncers bouncing through the night
Trying to stop or start a fight
I sit and watch the flashing lights
Moving legs in footless tights

I go out on Friday night and I come home on Saturday morning
I go out on Friday night and I come home on Saturday morning

I like to venture into town
I like to get a few drinks down
The floor gets packed the bar gets full
I don't like life when things get dull
The hen party have saved the night
And freed themselves from drunken stags
Having fun and dancing in
A circle round their leather bags

I go out on Friday night and I come home on Saturday morning
I go out on Friday night and I come home on Saturday morning

But two o'clock has come again
It's time to leave this paradise
Hope the chip shop isn't closed
Cos' their pies are really nice
I'll eat in the taxi queue
Standing in someone else's spew
Wish I had lipstick on my shirt
Instead of piss stains on my shoes

I go out on Friday night and I come home on Saturday morning
I go out on Friday night and I come home on Saturday morning
I go out on Friday night and I come home on Saturday morning
I go out on Friday night and I come home on Saturday morning
