Rob Taylor in Grimsby, England
Sugar spun sister used to be my favourite song from the very first time
I heard it, although every other song came a very close second...too
hard to separate. However, after taking the album on various summer
holidays around Europe, She Bangs the Drums became the one that was
played over and over again, whichever bar we went into, whether it be
Tokyo Joes in Faliraki, or Alex's Bar in Magaluf, this song is the one
that would be requested time and time again and i'd just go completely
off my tits!!!! Ahhhh ...What memories!!!

The hissing cymbals along with the dominating bassline...WICKED!!!!!!!!!!

Its the only song that never fails to get me up in the morning! Its
just 'tastic.

John in Driffield, England:
I bought The Complete Stone Roses having never heard any of their
songs except Fools Gold, the first ten songs failed to impress me but
when this came on it instantly turned the stone roses into my favourite
band of all time and now I like all their songs.
Stuart Nield in Madchester, England:
On she bangs, reni just lets loose and carries the song untill mani's
bass lines drift through then you have John's picking coming through
until all of the lads are in unison and the track explodes into life.
Adam in Dublin, Ireland:
Difficult choice but the intro and lyrics swing it. The lyric "Through
the early morning sun, I can see her here she comes, she bangs the drums"
conveys exactly everything that makes life great in one phrase.
