I almost wanted to say this was my favorite song from this CD, but the first two songs (The Gray Race and Them And Us) go seamlessly from one song to the next. Those two, A Walk, Punk Rock Song, Streets Of America, and Cease...it's hard to pick a favorite song.
Not hard for me... Ten in 2010 is my favorite BR song.

I'm surprised that first sentence made any sense, considering how sober I wasn't when I made it.
As far as a favorite BR song, it's too hard to decide. 80-85 is in my Jeep right now and there's a lot of stuff from the early part of the CD (the "How Can Hell Be Any Worse" part of the CD from tracks 1-14) that I'm really into lately.
What I never knew about the 80-85 CD is that there isn't an exact release date for it.
One of the most mysterious aspects of this compilation is its release date. Although the inlay on some says it was from 1991, this information may be confusing, like other early Bad Religion releases. Another reason why it could have been released before 1991 is because of its catalog number; 80-85 was released as Epitaph number 86407, while Against the Grain was released as Epitaph number 86409. For a while, Epitaph.com and the official Bad Religion website both claimed it was released on May 18, 1992, two months after the release of then-current album Generator (the current Bad Religion website claims it was released on November 12, 1991). Also, some software-based audio players and CD rippers that use CD lookup databases such as CDDB note 1989 as its release date. Finally, Allmusic claims it was released in 1990, while Punknews.org claims it was released in 1985 and Epitaph.com claims it was released in 1994, but there are no facts to support this.
I'm sure if I pull out my cassettes that I haven't listened to in almost a decade, I'm sure I can find an original copy and maybe a more accurate year.
After reading PghSkins "This video is just teh ridiculous" this video instantly popped in my head, weird but catchy song, and hilarious how they found a visual for every sound effect in the song, love it.
