Streams of Whiskey - the Pogues (Old Grey Whistle Test)

when the world is too dark/and i need the light inside of me/i walk into a bar/and drink 15 pints of beer
that line is so good. a great mix of vulnerability and bravado. best drinking song of all time? any thoughts?

Shit! Top 5 at least (the other four might be Pogues as well). Also, the Pogues are another perfect example of a band as a gang.

yeah, which is part of my argument of how men make better bands. it's true!

Yeah, I was gonna say that the best drinking song of all time is the Pogues.
