	The rousing live version of this classic -- which broke the band into the mainstream in 1986 -- doesn�t disappoint. Those staccato guitar crunches and sexy, sneering vocals are perfect for dancefloor grinding, while the twittering whistles pinched from the The Good, The Bad & The Ugly theme are a fun, funky touch. Forget gutless house or techno. This is dance music with soul, word up. Clearly the show�s closer, the track ends with the band playing call-and-response games with the crowd, and thanking them for coming out. As someone screams, �We want more, we want more,� you�ll wish you�d been there too.
