Kids over twist my arm any day.
Twist my arm is a good tune live (but IMO, it's been overrated since it was on Live Between Us).
Kids is an amazing song, whether it be studio or live versions. The lyrics are awesome, the message is there, and the pure power that Gord gives off is incredible (especially the last "If I ask you a question, are you gonna lie to me...)

Kids is a much better tune on studio and live...and ten years from now will be a bonafide Hip classic

Looking at this it was an easy choice for me because I am a big Twist My Arm fan, but the people on this board really seem to love Kid's Don't Get It, so I wouldn't be shocked at all to see that pull it off.

Urgh, I don't even think either of these songs are even middleweights, but I'm gonna go with Kids.

Never really cared for Twist. Looks like I cast the tying vote (for now)! Close race!

Even though Twist was the song that first got me hooked on the band, I'm gonna go with Kids on this one. Twist has the nostalgia factor, but Kids is one of the best songs they've ever made, and still kicks my ass on every listen.

Hardest match up for me so far here. I love twist, the poppy guitars rock but i really also love the way gord sings in kids he just belts it right out....i'm stuck on this one.

Tough draws for the WC tunes. Still can't get into Kids. Twist My Arm it is.
