Aside from R1 in which they stuffed U2, James have had a comfortable cup journey.

Well the toughest one yet for me to vote on...... love both.
Is this a top James song? I have many above this one, where as SHWG is my 2nd fave Soft Cell tune after What?
So make that an Almond milk with my cornflakes.....

I'd say U2's positively horrifying "One" was the easiest tie they had. That song title should have been its vote tally.Aside from R1 in which they stuffed U2, James have had a comfortable cup journey.

The last beautiful song they did was "40", made more beautiful by the fact that they ripped the lyrics from a psalm more or less.Totally disagree! beautiful song.

IMO of course.
But TBF white male Yanks of my age who went to middle-class Catholic schools filled with Irish kids and who were on board right away with Boy think the band went down the tubes musically after Rattle and Hum.
I personally would make an exception for "Beautiful Day" and other parts of ATYCLB.
I've seen them live more than any other band. That's because I never missed a show in the 80s! And then got dragged to some others afterwards. My neighbo(u)r and friend is President of their local (or California, I forget) fan club. His random encounter with The Edge at some NYC restaurant is literally the most important moment of his life. Which is touching actually -- when he talks about it, it's like he was blessed by a saint.

That James song as well.
Local bands have done well in this fun competition.
