Well they do have some good lyrics, the line 'So if I can shoot rabbits, then I can shoot fascists' is pretty hard for anyone to ignore. :lol:

But yeah, I've only heard the more commercial of their songs, which are epic stuff though. Besides If You Tolerate This Then Your Children Will Be Next, I like You Stole The Sun From My Heart, The Everlasting, Everything Must Go, all the obvious ones, that real fans of the band (not to speak of the band itself) are probably quite tired of. I remember when these songs were made and became popular, were played on the radio etc, so they have a nostalgic value for me.

I didn't notice until recently that in the beginning and at the end of If you tolerate this, you can hear the tone of The Internationale. That's pretty cool.
