[JesusFreak288]

Great fuckin' cover

[skariachies]

Great cover too bad the sound is like all messed up

[PBANDSNOW]

sweet, a cover of a great clash song, u say its junior murvin, but this is a clash version

[TheTone714]

Junior murvin did it the best, and dave did it better then then the clash sorry kids.

[synysterlud]

@TheTone714 the clash cover sucks. i hated it. this is probably my favorite cover of the song.

[PBANDSNOW]

@synysterlud fuck u, stupid jew

[synysterlud]

@PBANDSNOW dude just cause i dont like a band you go crazy? lmao you shouldnt take stuff too hard.

[PBANDSNOW]

@TheTone714 fuck u, not true at all, shit

[TheTone714]

@PBANDSNOW youre a crybaby. ANd way to emotional to be listening to the clash.

[PBANDSNOW]

@TheTone714 not emotional, but the fact is the clash were one of nirvanas biggest influences, and without nirvana, david grohl wouldnt be singing this, so u do ur history and shut ur fuckin jew mouh

[TheTone714]

@PBANDSNOW SO the fuck what. "do ur history"? SO your both stupid and emotional. I never said the clash weren't great or anything like that. I just said I prefer this cover to the clashes cover. Not everyone likes the same shit as much as every other person. Its called a opinion dumbass.

[GentlemanHES]

@TheTone714 You're entitled to your opinion even if it's totally wrong, idiotic and demonstrates you have no understanding of music. Have a nice day!

[Earthmon]

did not dig it....

[Mcheetah]

Reno 911 miami!

[ViaCydonia]

audio is fucked up

[siganddax]

@ViaCydonia ?

[ViaCydonia]

loud! then quiet..LOUD! ..quiet.. through the whole song.. or maybe it's just me

[synysterlud]

@siganddax audio is fucked up...

[ayohi]

@siganddax its horibble it goes loud then high then low then quiet then unbalanced and it really sucks mens buttholes.

[johngrybos]

@ViaCydonia The audio is horrid.

[bubuasqw123]

Dude could you upload this version of the song somewhere else to download it. It's impossible to find it

Thanks

[TheLittleLegionnaire]

@bubuasqw123 i hear it was in the credits of "Reno 911" movie... try the sound track maybe :-)

[originalskankster131]

guns and AMMANATION!

[TruBluFilms]

Reno 911! Miami!

[WattyE18]

Nothing compares to the original Junior Murvin

[chantalsaftypin]

I have to say. This cover is not bad.

But honestly you can't beat the clash.

And it doesn't matter if it's modern because as we all know THE CLASH WERE NOT FROM THE 2000'S.

haha.

[rayraythecrippler]

i love this version of the song!

[xbrothercausey]

i wish i had this technology when i still had my photos with my time with van halen.

did you meet nick or gus?

nice job,thanks.

[CorCat87]

the clash did it better

[psycomunkeh]

The Clash did it great.

but in all fairness this one is quite a bit better. way more modern.

[CorCat87]

nope

[psycomunkeh]

ya. the Clash sounds old and caribbean. this sounds like the Foo Fighters. much better. sorry you have poor taste in music. =)

[VivaLaSexPistols]

The Clash carribbean? Wow! You obviously have no insight to Reggae. It was written as a ska/punk song, and was meant to stay that way. I don*t think this is a bad cover at all, but it lacks Joe Strummer*s passion and energy.

[doobdxxb]

are you saying the clash wrote this song? if so you're wrong. it was orginally a reggae song by a guy named junior murvin. their version is a cover.

[VivaLaSexPistols]

No, what I'm trying to get across is that this song was meant to stay Ska, and that The Clash's cover was true to its original style.

[PartyBoy64]

The Clash made it their own in their own style. Foo Fighters are doing the same style version of Junior Marvin's cover that The Clash did.

In all rationality Dave Grohl is a clash fan. A Major Clash Fan.

[devilsfoofighter]

haha im guessing you ran out of pictures around 2:15?

[middleofnowhere08]

If you listen to the Reno 911 Miami commentary track they hint at this being dave grohl.

[tylhol28]

It's a pseudonym. Pretty much, if you can't get rights to cover a song, you make a fake band and do it anyway under that band's name.

[cisamichanne]

I'm confused, I heard this song in Reno 911!:Miami and in it it said "performed by Sprechen Sie Deutsch" but this one sound sliek exactly the same. Did David sing in that band too?? Either way I love the song.

[v5spectre]

This song picks up after half way through. Not the best version, though.

[jenfine]

Thanks for posting - I love it.
