Best Opening Lyrics: No. 20
--Sex Pistols' 'Anarchy in the UK'
These four words say it all, and the Sex Pistols could have stopped right there. Actually, they pretty much did.
Listen to the line!

A great tune to shout when you're totally pissed off at everything. It's also great to turn some heads and offend cretin fuddy-duddies.

Please tell me you're kidding. I'm no prude, but "I Am an Antichrist" and Patti Smith's "Jesus died for somebody's sins but not mine" are repugnant and blasphemous. Is everyone losing their minds?
How about Graham Nash's "Military Madness," "Better Days," Grand Funk's "I Can Feel Him in the Morning," Barry Manilow's "Could It Be Magic," Rufus Wainwright's "Hallelujah" and "I've Seen All Good People" by Yes. Yikes! I can't believe what I just read.

This group did not know the gravity of the lyric of that song. If they feel truly feel that way they will truly regret it one day. The Bible says we will answer for every idle word. It also tells us thst every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.

Thank you, Revelation. We absolutely DO have to account for what we say. And, indeed, every knee will bow and every tongue proclaim Jesus as Lord. God bless you!

Great opening line. Totally captures what the "refined" viewed bands such as the Sex Pistols and punk rock music in general. Perhaps Johnny Rotten was "an antichrist," but who is "a Christ?" Victorian prudes? The cocaine-bloated record industries? Antichrist is used just as symbolically as Lucifer is used in :Sympathy for the Devil."

yeah, it's a metephor, it's symbolism...it's quite relavent to the theme of rebelion in rock music. rock 'n' roll is always getting condemned by religous groups, the sex pistols had the guts to shoot right back at them.

Why do people always have to bring Jesus into everything? Get a life...please.

And if Sid Vicious was standing in front of you right now do you know what he'd say? He'd say REPENT THIS
