B - at some point we actually liked this song but listening to it now almost has me laughing at it. The band is dressed up like total debauchees and look like they don't want to be there. The guy in the audience in the beginning looks like a pedophile. Hate the annoying crunching repetitive guitar riff though out the song.
A - sweet early KB song without the late more polished sound Kate is known and loved for. Love this song for it shows an early more simplistic side of Kate yet still has plenty of different arrangements going on.

I like the early Kate Bush records in a sort of woozy, nostalgic way but I’m afraid that track is utterly trounced by the sparkly hobnail boots of The Sweet.

Let U be the set of all united sets, K be the set of the kids and D be the set of things divided.
Then it follows that ∀ k ∈ K: K ∈ U ⇒ k ∉ D
Then it follows that ∀ k ∈ K: K ∈ U ⇒ k ∉ D

A's not one of Kate's finest moments by any means, but it still does more than enough to win this match.

Re: 70s KnockOut Cup Match 2
Oh my god, Sweet in their prime were simultaneously sublime and ridiculous.
Tough choice, but I'm very much into KB at the moment, what with the remasters an'all, and A has always been my favourite song on Lionheart.

Not my favourite Bush, by any stretch of the imagination, but B is just so annoyingly "Timewarp"esque, I can't forgive it ( I hate Rocky Horror ).

Ballroom Blitz is peak Chinnichap, one of the best things Sweet recorded. Brian Connolly really let's rip on this one and Mick Tucker adds an exciting backbeat. Lyrics are extremely musical, too: "when the man at the back said everyone attack". It is pure tosh brilliance, but as Penk pointed out, not meant for repeat play. It comes on, does the job, and gets the hell out of there. B
