Pick a Manics song for them to re-record

Out of everything the Manics have ever done, which of their songs would you most like to hear them re-record now? For me it's got to be one of the following 5 songs;

Dead Yankee Drawl
You Love Us
We Her Majesty's Prisoners
Soul Contamination
New Art Riot

'Love's Sweet Exile' - maybe we can hear it how James really wanted it to be.

'A Vision of Dead Desire' - so they can reverse the decision to change the verse riff and vocal stylings!

Quite a lot of the early stuff could do with re-recording just to improve the sound ('Strip it Down', 'Motown Junk', most of GT), but I'm not sure they could really do the songs justice anymore. They're just not in that place.

However, real drums on GT tracks are necessary, so I'd settle for a partial re-recording

I'd like them to record a studio version of Empty Souls, played with the speed and ferocity that it had at Isle Of Wight 2004.

Motorcycle Emptiness.

I'm still :( over how the 2003 remake is an edit and doesn't have re-recorded vocals.

I'd personally love them to have Sean re-record ALL the drums on GT, remix and remaster the entire album and put it out for the 20th anniversary.

Most of Know Your Enemy and Lifeblood - they both have some great songs - but I think the production of both those records was really flawed (although in very different ways!)
