I dunno which lyric I actually prefer.

Probably "I'm gonna miss you Kurt Cobain" to be honest...

in terms of lyrics i perfer the kurt Cobain lyric, but i prefer the Richey James version coz the vocals are better, as is the production!!

Can't believe no one has said Girlfriend Clothes. For a song that Ginger claimed he can't remember writing or recording it is a true work of genius. Other highs include Can't Do Right For Doing Wrong and Fugazi (Do The Fake). But how can you choose when their B-Side back catalogue is better than most bands entire output.

Awoooooo and out

I'd probably have to go with "Bad Time To Be Having A Bad Time" - one of my all-time favorite songs, let alone WH b-sides.

Best B-side

Postby jps101 » 16th Aug 06, 18:46

The best british bands of the 90's Oasis and Wildhearts made all there singles worh buying as you had great songs like masterplan and give the girl a gun. Wildhearts should put out a compilation of all their b-sides .
My Top Five
1) Give the girl a gun
2) 29 x the pain
3) Zomboid
4) cant do right from doing wrong
5) girlfriend clothes

erm...you mean like "Moodswings and Roundabouts", "Anthem: the Singles Collection", and "Coupled With" for starters.

Cheers, Keith.

It says something about the Wildhearts that this topic is called "Best B Side" and every's posting big long lists and saying "I can't pick the best but it's one of these 5". Heck, I can't get my list down into single figures... so here are my favourite 17 Wildhearts B Side, in vaguely chronological order:

Beautiful Thing You
Two Way Idiot Mirror
29x The Pain
Shandy Bang
Can't Do Right For Doing Wrong
Give The Girl A Gun
Underkill
Bad Time To Be Having A Bad Time
Sky Chaser High
Got It On Tuesday
Do Anything
Zomboid
Do The Fake
OCD
Bang!
Got To Get Through...
Move On

If I was forced to pick just one then I'd go for Give The Girl A Gun... but I'd feel bad for leaving out the other 16 ;-)
In an ideal world there'd be no time for ideals.
