My favorite Pretenders song placement is Walter White doing crazy donuts in a parking lot while "Boots of Chinese Plastic" plays in the background. One of Breaking Bad's best opening sequences.
Certainly their last all killer no filler album. This and their debut album. Lots of talk of Chrissie, no mention of rest of band. Martin Chambers drumming is filled with sparkles of flourishes and fills. Its also the first album after the loss of James Honeyman-Scott whose style wasn't searing leads but well placed chords and firing of bassist Pete Farndon. Gonna call out Mitch for missing some of the best tracks on the album. Time the Avenger's lyrics have more meaning now as we've gotten older. Thumbelina is killer rockabilly from this newwave/punk/pop band. It can take its influences from "country" and old school rockabilly but the band makes it their own. and much like Don, not until decades after its initial release did i discover this album deserves to be listened to wholly

Most likely chosen by genius music supervisor, fellow Needham High alum, and our old friend Thomas Golubic!
I know for a fact it was chosen by Mr. Golubic
