probably Kerosene.

Some other awesome ones:

Deep Six "I'm God's gift to women, they always want my dick, except for that one girl she thinks I'm trash"

Bad Penny "I think I fucked your girlfriend once, maybe twice, I can't remember. And I fucked all your friend's girlfriends, now they hate you."

Passing Complexion- the guitar part is just so cool

atsonicpark 10.01.2008 11:09 AM

Either Fish Fry or Texas...

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 10.01.2008 11:12 AM

Big Black is one of the few bands that I like (besides punk/hardcore bands) my punk/hardcore can understand. Mainly because of the lyrics.

atsonicpark 10.01.2008 11:23 AM

my band ruinhorse was going to cover was bad penny but we broke up... Scissor Shock covered passing complexion. So, I have some attachment to those songs as well.

PAVEMENT SAW is another one my favorites, now that I'm thinking about it.

Dead-Air 10.01.2008 11:27 AM

"Bad Houses" and or "Kerosene". "Racer X" actually tied too. But the best live song was "Cables"!

atsonicpark 10.01.2008 11:37 AM

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"CABLES"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!

"I ain't no company man!"

Bad Houses is a cover, I think, that's why I excluded it.

atsonicpark 10.01.2008 11:55 AM

L Dopa always got me.

"I got a sickness sweet as a love note."

That line would be so mcuh cooler if he was saying "I got a sickness sweet as a lymph node." Or is he saying that?

SuperCreep 10.01.2008 11:59 AM

Colombian Necktie as of late.

Who did Bad Houses originally?

Love the jackhammer drumbeat! It's probably one of Big Black's angriest songs (Fish Fry being the most angriest).

atsonicpark 10.01.2008 12:07 PM

Hmm I don't recall right now. Maybe it's not a cover, but I was always under the impression it was for some reason. Oh well. Great song.

atsonicpark 10.01.2008 12:09 PM

"Burning Indian Wife" is in my Big Black top 5 as well.

I really don't think it is. "Heartbeat" is a Wire cover, but aside from that and the Cheap Trick/Kraftwerk single, I don't think they did any other covers. But I could be wrong. I didn't know about "Heartbeat" for a long while.

gualbert 10.01.2008 08:02 PM

Rema-Rema is a cover , and The Big Payback is a cover of J Brown ( hardly recognisable ).

I love Atomizer but I'm not that keen on Songs About Fucking.

atsonicpark 10.02.2008 01:49 PM

First time I've ever heard anyone say that.

I said it before. It's grown on me a lot more, but I still prefer Atomizer.

Kerosene

NWRA 10.03.2008 11:36 AM

To me, the songs on Atomizer are noisier and more melodic than the ones on Songs About Fucking which just seem tinny and undeveloped. I'm going to listen to it again soon...

uhler 10.03.2008 02:40 PM

i like songs about fucking more just because the songs are more abrasive and dark. plus the album title is pretty damn funny. anytime my mom looks at the cd she just shakes her head.
