»Hard Time Pressure« has always been one of those few very special songs and the deejay cut by Ranking Dread is pure magic. Also Wrong Move (Skengdon 7") and the super wicked Come Again 12" I have to mention.
»*I was just taking a breeze*
*just to give me singer dem a piece.*
*Satta inna Jamdung, seh me just a cool out.*
*But hear the youth dem seh Bogga weh you talk 'bout?*
*Hey, Bogga Minott if you stop singing*
*then all ghetto people woulda start crying*
*Them think me gone. Them think me gone. Them think me gone. Me come again!*«
But really. Too many songs to mention. »Good Thing Going«, »Lovers Rock«, »Herbman Hustling« etc etc. Incredible stuff.

Its hard to say, as there are a ton of good ones. But I really, really like these:
"Guidance" (took me years to actually listen to this song on the Showcase LP--I was too focused on playing Oh Mr. DC and Vanity)
"Dancehall Style" (probably my favorite tune on Heavenless as well--Anthony Johnson's "Strictly Rub a Dub" is right up there though)
"Informer" (super stripped-down riddim with a nasty bass-line)
"Herbman Hustling" (YES!!!)

Love and Understanding (nice jazzy heartfelt tune for Studio One, based on soul tune "Be Thankful for What You Got")
Give Me Rydim (great, uplifting digital tune, on Answer)
Devil Pickney (great electronic drums by Sly Dunbar)
Rome (sledgehammer bass)
