1: 'Uncertain Smile'
First heard it On Annie Nightingale's request show. One of my most exciting radio moments. Had to buy it the next week and I've been playing it ever since. It never fails to thrill.
And yes, the album version is definitive to me.

One of my favourite album closers of all time (UK release). The way it builds and builds and then the relentless Afrobeat at the end is nothing short of mesmerising.
Every. Single. Time.
Results and playlist out tomorrow morning ๐ถ๐

Infected | 1986
Never in doubt. Infected has always been and always will be my The The number one. This will quite possibly feature in my #80sTop30 too.
Thanks @top10nathan.bsky.social for hosting. Looking forward to seeing the results.

#1. Sweet Bird Of Truth.
Iโve always been obsessed with this song. The music is great (including the chorus being sung through the dying pilotโs comms) but those lyrics are something else.
โโฆbut Iโm praying that Godโs with you when you die.โ

#2. Infected.
The first The The song I fell for. My teenage mind was spun out by this unsettling video, and the unsettling music (and Andy Dog album cover too!). Big impact on my musical development.

2: 'This Is The Day'
Nobody bedroom angst better than Matt Johnson. A soul laid bare. His soul and ours.
Seize the day. As relevant to me now as then, maybe more so.
Great song but this is possibly the most unintentionally funny video of all time.

And the only Devil in your world
Lives in the human heartโ

A lot of division on the ultimate version of this, but I'm a staunch boogie woogie defender, and Jools Holland's extended piano on the album version elevates this song from great to legendary.

This Is The Day (Soul Mining)
You've been reading some old letters
You smile and think how much you've changed
All the money in the world couldn't buy back those days
