Riley ,'Sleeper'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

So, what else by The Stranglers is similar?
I don't know, but I could certainly use "Duchess" for my "A Royal Pain in the A**" mix

No More Heroes would be their acknowledged classic.
There's some great stuff on Black and White.
I never cared much for them. I've only played them three times on the radio, and none of those songs stick with me (Peaches, Hanging Around, Tank). I don't know why I've never played Grip. I like that one!
My brother plays The Stranglers a lot but they've never really stuck with me. I keep getting them confused with The Blasters.

Priscilla had a hand in producing this and it was a very faithful account of his early band on the road before he broke huge.
