And a toughie at that. However, while I so adore "Dog Eat Dog"...."Brush Me, Daddy-O!"...., I'm going to have to go with "Mexican Radio," as it still sounds a truly bizarre today as it did way back when. R.I.P Marc Moreland.

And down below your dandy clothes you're just a shade too white. (Don't get mad, MM, I'm just quoting for no reason.)
"Dog Eat Dog" by several million miles. This has less to do with the fact that I always thought "Mexican Radio" to be the most overhyped radio song of my high school days than it does with the fact that I loved and still love Kings of the Wild Frontier and all its twisted bullshitty thumpy ridiculous wonderful songs.

Wall of Voodoo did a great, spooky cover of "Ring of Fire" as well.

anyone who lives in NYC and likes these bands should go to Gimme Gimme Records on E. 5th St, they're only open on Fri Sat Sun afternoons - they have EVERYTHING

But what if my clothes aren't frilly? Am i still too white? And you've misspelt, "Ridgway", Neudonym.
A cool name, but "Menudonym" would be even cooler.

I am sorry that I made that lame joke about Matt M.'s color/clothing. I got carried away on the Antmusic tip. Plus, it wasn't funny.
I am not really all that sorry about misspelling what's-his-name's name, but thankful for the correction.

Primus? Don't think so. It's missing the wanky bass parts. And i doubt that explaining any cultural context wouldn't help Dan like it anymore than he aleready does.

Reviving because I'm reading ancient threads as distraction from -- you know.
Sign me up as one of the crowd who chooses both. "Dog Eat Dog" is my favorite Adam and the Ants song and I find it exceptionally addictive, and I have to listen to "Mexican Radio" every dieciséis de Septiembre, or Mexican Independence Day (September 16), as a celebration of my people from an alternative (but still respectful) perspective. Why choose between the two when you can enjoy both?

looked up the cover of "Ring of Fire" mentioned 17 years ago on this thread and the noisy finale is pretty great:
