Today's prompt is 'Share a song that changed your perspective on music.'

I'm gonna have to go back to 1977 for this one. That year may not surprise you, being as it was the core of the original punk days.

I was 13, as of August. 'No More Heroes' came out in September, Wikipedia tells me. I can't tell you when I first heard it, but I do know it was on a Sunday afternoon, after a week in which my friend Brendan had strongly urged me to get into punk.

It came on the radio, and it was the first punk song I heard.

The Stranglers were less punky than the Pistols, Clash, Damned, etc, of course, being older and to some extent, bandwagon jumpers. But who gave a fuck about that when they made a song as good as this?
