What is Your Favourite Manics Song?

Simple question, has it been done before? If so, well, we're doing it again.

Mine are joint top 3, for different reasons.
Tolerate, Faster, Firefight

You'd think with the amount of time I spend thinking about the Manics I would have considered this question now, but it's really hard.

I will give money (maybe) to the person who actually puts just one song.

Intravenous Agnostic, Design For Life or WLW

Ha! Ha! Very true Rich! Is very difficult to pick. That's why I'm glad Tolerate means so much to me otherwise I would be equally stuck with picking an outright fave!

I thought of breaking it down to favourite b-side, favourite single and favourite album track?

...or I could just say "PCP"?
