Most catchy tune

Post Thu Jan 20, 2005 4:18 pm

The Pogues have written loads of catchy tunes but what do you think is the most catchy tune?

I think my choice would be Sayonara followed shortly by Repeal of the Licensing Laws.

House of the Gods is annyoingly catchy, as is The Irish Rover - though probably the worst tune to get stuck in your head all day is Battle of Brisbane...

The intro to 'Turkish Song of the Damned' is an 'ear worm' too.

Streams of Whiskey I guess
It was on the 23rd of June
As I lay blasted in my room
A small bird sang on an ivy branch
And the song they sang was the "Jug of Punch"

The first two albums were hella catchy.


Worms was the first Pogues song that I learned to sing all the way through too... ;)

I am actually going to Worms tomorrow (a city not too far away from Frankfurt), and so I can't stop humming 'the worms that crawl in...'! :)
