OK I'm doing a thing and need input.

What music would you guys consider absolute classics? Total must-listens. Any genre, any kind. Anthems, show songs, cheese, guilty pleasure, whatever.

And go!

Okay first round:

"Djelem Djelem (Opre Roma)" - Romani anthem, official-like. Always gets me.

Čaje Šukarije - I've totally had you listen to this one before, I know.

On a different note, my actual personal Most Important Tracks:

Fuck tha Police - NWA

Ever Fallen in Love - Buzzcocks

Sheena is a Punk Rocker - Ramones

Heart of Glass - Blondie

Cherry Bomb - The Runaways (Hi, Claudia!)

It's Tricky - Run DMC

Mo Money Mo Problems - Biggie (+ Mace + Puffy)

Trash - New York Dolls

Search and Destroy - Iggy and the Stooges

I Like Fucking - Bikini Kill

Oh Bondage! Up Yours! - X-Ray Spex

Rudie Can't Fail - The Clash

These are all V. Important Absolute Classics for The Thing.

More later probs, gotta go do things in the back.

Keep it up and I may actually play something for you.

...you are SUCH a hipster.

[om_quicksilver]

Betch, please, I am THE hipster. I was a hipster before hipsters knew hipster-ism was a thing, okay.

But seriously I defy you to find more classic tracks. You cannot. It is impossible.

[om_ironman]

Like that, is it?

It is on.

[om_quicksilver]

BRING IT, STARK.

[om_quicksilver]
