Torchlight, but only because it's one of the more normal songs on Spirit of St. Louis (Lou Reed's Berlin would have liked a word), while Hitsville is too normal.
When I made "This Is Radio Clash", a two record version of "Sandanista!", for a Weekend Mix in February 2018, I included "Torchlight", as I've always thought it sounded more like The Clash than "Hitsville UK".

ReplyDeleteTorchlight , Hitsville is Clash lite, sing-song melody that gets irritating after a couple of listens

When I reach back to my yoof I visit Ellen's Night Out -- gotta remember Spirit of St. Louis
