R.I.P. Margaret Thatcher. In honor of the occassion, my top 10 favorite songs about the Iron Lady:
1. The Not Sensibles- I’m In Love with Margaret Thatcher
2. Elfyn Presli – Jackboots Magi Thatcher
3. Crass- How Does it Feel to Be the Mother of a Thousand Dead?
4. Newton Neurotics- Kick Out the Tories
5. The Specials- Maggie’s Farm
6. Violent Femmes- Old Mother Reagan
7. The Larks- Maggie Maggie Maggie
8. Chaos UK- Maggie
9. Danielle Dax- Miss Bad M

Honorable mentions: The Exploited- Maggie You Cunt, Heaven 17- We Don’t Need This Fascist Groove Thang, DK- Kinky Sex Makes the World Go ‘Round, and Klaus Nomi- Ding Dong the Witch is Dead.
I like JELLO BIAFRA’s “Kinky Sex Makes The World Go Round” with a simulated Thatcher orgasm!
Oh HELL yeah.
