57. The Undertones: Teenaged Kicks

I'm starting to think this blog I'm writing sucks. It can only be as good as the songs people!

Here's another power-pop masquerading as punk song. PF500 explains these guys are Northern Irelanders.

Rating: 63. 59. 68.

UPDATE: I was much too defeatist above. This song is starting to grow on me. It's apparently John Peel's favorite-ever song. I think what gives it the extra kick is the half-step escalating chords in the chorus. Adds a little bit of spice to the power pop.
