I'm back with yet another theme poll of rarish songs that one might not expect to see in a PA poll.  I've included a YouTube playlist for your listening pleasure.  Give them a listen or a watch and choose your three favorites.  Per usual, I have left the last answer as a choose your favorite as I am sure there are plenty of other songs with Flag in the title that I have not included.  Let us know which ones you like and which ones you don't.

Excellent poll! I can't make up my mind so I went with white Flag.

I voted for Jethro Tull. There are quite a few good songs here though.

I only skipped through the playlist. Voted for The Dead Flag Blues which I kind of knew I would end up doing.

It would only get flagged if the band Black Flag was one of the options.

My vote goes to Blue Öyster Cult even if it's a cover of Leggat's song.

I wasn't familiar with the BOC song prior to making this poll.  I had not heard it before, and didn't realize that it was a cover.  It looks as though it might have only been released as a single?  Never mind, I see it was on the Club Ninja album.  That is one of the few albums from them that I don't own yet.

"White Flags" opens Club Ninja, which is easily BÖC's worst album (but it still has some really good songs). There are too many songs on Club Ninja not written by the band: "White Flags" is the best and "Beat 'Em Up" is the worst.

Beforehand I thought this would be between godspeed you! black emperor and The Legendary Pink Dots for me. After listening to the playlist (skipping bits, here and there) this didn't change. I'll add a vote to the Dots.
