Worst Bunnymen song ever

Parthenon Drive
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

Nothing Lasts Forever Dad rock :eek:

The song is boring now, but that track got me interested in the Bunnymen and I was only in my mid-twenties when that was released. Must have been a lot of people into dad rock at that time judging how it did in the UK.

Mr. Brian, I find that offensive.

Scouser's inability to se others' point of view is rather grating.

Everybody Knows. Pretty bad. Really about half of Flowers.

I think Baseball Bill is probably the worst Bunnymen song I've ever heard. The title of the song, lyrics, music all really bad.

What If We Are is up there as well.

Then there's that song off Flowers that sounds like the beginning guitar riff off the Friends theme song. Yowza. The song itself actually isn't too bad.

You are right about Baseball Bill. Who the feck is/was Baseball Bill anyway? Strange title for a band from Liverpool, UK. Same with "Altamont" and "Empire State Halo". The backend of Britpop, and Mac and co were coming up with titles with American themes.
