You should also listen to Fernando by ABBA and The Winner Takes It All as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've never really listened to any Pretenders but the first song of theirs which came to mind was Don't Get Me Wrong. Apart from Brass in Pocket and Back on the Chain Gang I couldn't name another song of theirs which suggests that these are the 3 biggies. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Peter T Chattaway Posted June 6, 2017 Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 I, of course, know the Pretenders primarily for their contributions to the James Bond movie soundtrack The Living Daylights: 'Where Has Everybody Gone?' and 'If There Was a Man'. Quote "Sympathy must precede belligerence. First I must understand the other, as it were, from the inside; then I can critique it from the outside. So many people skip right to the latter." -- Steven D. Greydanus Now blogging at Patheos.com. I can also still be found at Facebook, Twitter and Flickr. See also my film journal.
