  • QUE ASKO DE KANCION... UN GRUPO Q DICE SER PUNK HACIENDO REGGAE? INCLUSO HASTA LA VERSION FABULOSOS CADILLAC ES MIL VECES MEJOR

  • The only band that matt........fuc the rest

  • To the absolute morons who are like "ahhh yeah, Rizzle Kicks, yeah, ermm, yeah, aye, ermm aye they are better than the Clash" ...have you gone mad? You think that some cheap chart artist is better than THE CLASH, are you actually for real?! "Rizzle Kicks" completely ripped off this song. This is a video of THE CLASH, not your daft little Rizzle Kicks so do us all a favour and get lost.

  • wow how come these guys stole rizzle kicks intro? wtf?

  • MEEEEEEGA FOOOODERA!!!!

  • Rizzle Kicks are better.

  • @Dendiol seriously just go away

  • @daemonk756890 Just my opinion. 

  • @Dendiol bloody twat

  • @cpj93070 It was just my opinion.

  • rizzle kicks copied them.

  • @amycrombz its a sample bro

  • The best! Thanks..

  • ♪ Todo el mundo a mover los pies y a bailar hasta morir ♫

  • This is truth. The Clash did reggae better than most when they were doing it. Even better than many of the originators. Disagree if you want, but this reggae fan of 45 years, knows what is truth.

  • Brilliant song, better than Rizzle Kicks, but theirs works too

  • I CAN'T FUCKING BELIEVE THAT PEOPLE DISLIKE THIS.

    Four horsemen was m'eh this was awesome

  • rizzle kicks version is better, this guy sings with a retarded lisp

  • @IAMTHEMONSTERMASH It's not a different version, that would mean they have the same lyrics, and it doesn't , They just used sampling. This is the original, and it's a classic, rizzle kicks couldn't write their own music so turned to possibly of of the most revolutionary amazing bands in history for help.

  • @IAMTHEMONSTERMASH Your a down syndrom fucker.Get a taste in music

  • 18 people need to step up their games.

  • Rizzle Kicks - When i was a youngster sample!! siiick

  • @surphkid11 I like Rizzle Kicks, but they should have left this one alone IMO, doesn't do the original justice.

  • gives you a nice feeling dont it

  • rizzle kicks should never have though of using this song

  • fuck bureaucracy greetz from Argentine

  • Rizzle Kicks.

  • I think you're heartless to put "I don't like" at this song, if you do not like the music at least appreciated the writer, a wonderful person who gave us everything he could and died tragically at the age of 50 years ...

    Stay Free Joe ...

  • Love revolution 2012!! Go Ron Paul we love ya!! Please save us from the warmongers! Tell your mama!

  • The worst song on the best album

  • @CardingtonLZF Why do people dislike this song so much? I think the Clash did a good job with reggae.

  • @youtubbs67 Here here.

  • @youtubbs67 because theyre idiots, most of those people didnt like London Calling and how they became more than a punk band. Its a waste too, because while their early material was good, London Calling & on were masterpieces & changed music. Plus, there are a lot of dub remixes and reggae tracks on future cds. I think that them and The Police were the only full white "rock" bands that could do reggae the justice it deserves. This is my favorite clash song, along with rock the casbah

  • @CardingtonLZF lol i admit this is probably one of the lesser songs on the album but that whole album beats any song thats out in rock today

  • @CardingtonLZF lol four horsemen is probably the worst song on this album.

  • R.I.P. Joe

  • Perfect song, perfect video.

  • 15 Dislikes...WTF!!

  • QUEM VEIO AKI PELA TWITCAM DO BLUEZAO DA JOINHA

  • 427000th!

  • I love this song. I met Joe once long ago in early 90s at Al's Bar in downtown LA. It's no longer there:( He bummed a cigarette off me and said he was trying to quit. I said, yeah, me too haha, really??. Shoulda saved the butt. God I miss his music

  • @lesliesalt ~ Well, all his music always is (and always will be) with us. We will leave this earth, but his great music and inspiration will remain forever.

    I stop smoking... until I light another cig. lol

    Many thanks for your memories of Joe, and sorry for writing from this account, but I read your comment in my email client, I really liked it and had to reply. Cheers.

  • @pfonyt Yeah it was pretty cool:D I looked at the friend I was there with that night and said, did Joe Strummer just bum a marlboro off me?? It was pee-your-pants surreal. I had seen them multiple times in So Cal where I'm from, including once at the Santa Monica Civic which to this day remains the single loudest concert I've ever attended. I remember this total hardcore punker sitting on the stairs in the aisle covering his ears, musta gotten too close to the stage. Good times haha:)

  • Jah likes this song.

  • gouvy's tune for the century!!!

  • bad, bad rock.... u listenin?

  • The Clash 4ever!!!!

  • God bless ..the Weed...the Clash....and the Revolution!!!....so the organ play ..let's dance to the brand new beat!!!!! thank you Joe!!!!R.I.P bro.

  • this song helped me get through my existential meltdown. hell if the clash said everythings gonna be alright who the hell am i to argue?

  • 666 likes. im gonna leave it just like that. that is some bad bad rock...

  • El Clash Combo!

  • I feel the Genre should be Revolution Rock and socially conscious people like Bob Marley would be included.

  • Joe was the awesome strummer, and Mick's vocals are unmatched. Mash up those Nations!

  • i want this played at mmy funeral its just sooooooo goooood .best band the world has ever known,this here music cause a sensation.

  • 15 dont fucking rock

  • GET THAT CHEESE GRATER GOING!

  • the clash is simply one of the best

  • I never bore of the clash.

  • tell ya mama , tell ya papa everythin gonna be alriiight!

  • Best intro in music history.

  • great this song and all lyrics i saw them 1981 london 1982 italy

  • Saw 'em in '79. 80, 81...Thank you Joe. THE BEST.

  • THE CLASH REGGAE AMAZING

  • I LOVE the lirycs

  • Specialiatitiy!

  • seen em live twice ,best band i ever saw ,amazing ,100 per cent adrenalin rush all the way through ,never forget it!

  • @homebrew95 Awesome!!! Only got to see Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros, but saw em' like 6 times which was great. Once at the Troubadour and talked to Johnny Ramone who was at the gig upstairs at a table sitting with some friends. I opened for the Ramones with my punk band the Giant Burritos in San Diego way back in 88' and told Johnny about it, he was cool and said he remembered that gig, but shit, he was probably just maybe being nice cause they played thousands of gigs.

  • Well I'm a big fan of the Clash, but I have to say: the part "I ain't got no time for that" is the best sang moment music EVER!

  • ♫♪ everybody smash up your seats and rock to this brand new beat ♪♫

  • I would never wish to be back in high school high school nowadays it is a lame experience ask any 15 yr old but yeah it take courage to turn it up and piss someone off luckily I work where people appreciate good loud music so its hard to piss someone off and I refuse to resorting to playing Justin Bieber to piss someone off thats just unethical

  • trip

  • smoke a bowl  (_)XXXXXD and turn your speakers up and piss someone off

  • @Kineticartist I wish I was still in high school. If I did that now people would tell me to fuck off and get a life haha.

  • Is it to the coolest mobsters in "kingtown" or "kingston"?

  • @alexdancegirl kingston jamaica

  • Epic.

    95% of the bands who habit the musical wasteland of today would give their eye teeth to be able to make a tune like this.

    "It's food for thought mobsters......young people shoot their days away....I've seen talent thrown away...."

  • God this song just puts me in such a good mood.

  • @cpolymeris The version of Dazed is not technically a cover. Page changed some of the lyrics and the arrangement enough so as have to give credit to the author, Jake Holmes. But that's really neither here nor there. That's a really good example, as are many of the others, of making a song theirs. My point was more about the Clash covered so many songs that they ended up owning. I've known people who had no idea that "I Fought the Law" was a cover.

  • BEST SONG EVERR

  • tell your ma tell your pa that the clash is the best band ever and there really is no argument to that

  • the clash best band ever---athens

  • Joe is singing, "Everything gonna be High Life", not "alright".

  • the clash are as, if not more important than the beatles and if you love the clash then you love their musical diversity, Punk/Rockabilly/Funk/Jazz/ Dub/Reggae/Pop/rock/pop.......­etc so understand their influences and please don't make statements like they are the only band worth listening to joe would turn in his grave!

  • You legend, got it exactly there

  • I heard this one for the first time on a walk man in a crowded train. I bursted into lmao'ing when I heard 'everybody smash up your seat and dance...'

  • perfect blend of rock and reggae, thank you clash

  • I have t shirt of this album :D my gf bought it for me in münich

  • 14 year-old girls love this stuff too ;D <3

  • i had heard this song by Los Fabulosos Cadilacs and i would have thought it was theirs... wow. i love The Clash also.

    Thanks for posting and pulling me out of ignorance! LOL

  • this has to be one of the best albums of all time...............the only band that matter

  • @KraljEmir Police and thieves is a cover of a reggae song and this is a reggae song so yeah they sound similar.

  • @KraljEmir haha

  • this be the stuff, Joe, thankyou for your talents

  • We need a revolution now.

    Everything is gonna be alright.

  • love it ♥

  • dude i had a once in a life time chance i found this album at wallmart along with an agent orange, i had to take a loan from my best friend and mom but i made shur that those things are gonna come with me i would have sold my testical to get them

  • aaaahhhh the ticker givs me a headache

  • The only band that matters

  • Very nice track, very reggae. It reminds me of a Bob Marley song " Revolution ".

  • Alien Rocks?

  • è veramente bella però io preferisco la versione della banda bassotti!

  • @bobruben86

    Nooo daiii!Non dire queste cose =)

  • @bobruben86 banda bassotti, stai insultando uno dei gruppi che molto più di tanti altri hanno scritto la storia della musica, è rinnovato, se non creato un nuovo movimento musicale quale il punk, creando un fenomeno che ha avuto una risonanza mondiale, ma vai a quel paese

  • @ayeyeify Ma che problema hai? non ho capito mica chi starei insultando... forse non hai letto bene il mio commento guarda che non ho mica detto che non mi piace il pezzo (e comunque non sarebbe un insulto ma un 'opinione) ho solo detto che la versione della banda bassotti la preferisco perchè penso che i fiati gli diano qualcosa di più.

    PS: Informati i clash non hanno inventato il punk, hai mai sentito parlare dei Ramones e Sex Pistols ?

  • @bobruben86 uno ramones clash e sex pistols sono grosso modo della stessa epoca, e cmq conosco tutti e tre i gruppi, e posso asserire con tranqullità che secondo me il gruppo che ha dato di più alla musica sono proprio i clash, nonostante ciò ammetto la mia ignoranza siccome non conoscevo la versione della banda bassotti, e ti porgo le più sentite scuse dato che pensavo che la tua fosse una battuta fuori luogo

  • @bobruben86 hahaha chi sono questi bassotti? I clash sono the only band that matters. cmq conosci gli stooges? clash sono una rock band musicalmente piu ricca di sex pistols e ramones

  • definitely the only band that matters. so fucking good

  • The Only Band That MATTERS!

  • @defected1313 Yes, at the time, the only band that mattered from the U.K. to the executives running CBS records.

    Food for thought.

  • @TruthAxe Actually they were not that important to the executives, they were bumped down the pecking order as CBS were more concerned with ABBA.

  • @defected1313 you meant the only band that Fuckin MATTERS!!!!!

  • could anybody upload the original be interesting to hear-thanks

  • the lyrical translation is wrong wrong wrong

  • @laume975 Translation? Yes yes yes, I know I know I know! I copied and pasted the lyrics from a website (see the video description), which at the time was the only to feature the full lyrics. They are "all in one line" so I had to add many spaces to fit the lyrics perfectly. I had to spend a lot of hours of work and it was really hard because the more I was adding spaces to the 1st half, the more they were not fitting in the 2nd part and vice versa! I'm sorry for that.

  • @pfonyt No need to apologize. You did a fantastic job and I appreciate the time you spent. Cheers!

  • @FleshColoredCrayon ~ Thanks for your comment.

  • Man I love this song. It is so good for the soul!

  • e pcciat!!!!

  • e pcciat!!!!

  • e pcciat!!!!

  • Careful how you move Mac...You dig me in the back...And I am so pilled up that I rattle....Young people shoot their days away...I've seen talent thrown away...

    The Clash are Magnificent, still now as much as ever!!

  • numca aouviu essa music com tanta PAY ATTENTION CHILDREM.

  • holy cow! is there anything that the magnificent Clash hasn't done???

    it's scary man, they've been everywhere in the post punk music genre, and puting PiL in the ecuation + Joy Division gives everything that would later be done in the 80's...this people were really creative and free..prophets of postpunk rock..

  • this video has nothing to do with da song..

    but i still like it i think Los fabulosos cadillacs sing it better though

  • young people shoot their days away.

    if seen talent trown away

  • So bad bad rock!

  • what are the point of those pictures? someone please explain

  • Check out the description box... click on 3wDOTtheclashDOTorgDOTuk (it's the 1st link in the References section) then visit the following page: LondonDOThtm [ 3wDOTtheclashDOTorgDOTukSLASHL­ondonDOThtm ] OR search the home page for the following link: [ LONDON CALLING - Vanilla Studios ***** ] ... click on it and you'll get all of them (explanations included, of course.)

  • teel your mama tell your papa that the clash are the law and this is only the true

  • No wrong.

  • check out another version on youtube: banda bassotti (italian band) covering this song - its in italian but it sounds great!

  • @wirebead check "revolution rock" by los fabulosos Cadillacs, it's another cover from this song but by an Argentinian band...

  • this is such a great song. this is fucking revolution rock

  • against the grain, wearing me down

  • One of the best Clash tracks in my view, even though there are so many to choose from.

  • sorry meant to give u a thumbs up :/

  • Actually this song is from Danny Ray and the Revolutioneers!

  • Todo el mundo a mover los pies ya bailan hasta morir...Esta musica causa sensacion es el ritmo de toda la nacion....llama a tu viejo, llama a tu vieja....!

  • El cover!! es genial

  • los fabulosos cadillacs se copiaron de esta cancion!

    los fabulosos cadillacs copied this song, they aren't originals

    i like the clash!

  • No se copiaron....es un cover que hicieron....Los Fabulosos son super fanaticos de The Clash....en concierto el Sr. Flavio a veces cantaba "Guns of Brixton"....LFC es la bnada mas original que ha salido del rock en español!

  • Pues un cover es un tipo de copiar.

  • No, estas equivocado, el cover es una forma de dar tributo a las bandas que te influenciaron, una forma de copiar es el plagio, como panda a green day

  • Hay muchas formas de copiar. Un cover es un forma de dar tributo, per tambien es un tipo de copiar; es una forma de copiar buena. Green Day copia The Clash tambien, pero su copiar es mas como plagio que tributo. En conclusion, covers son un tipo de copiar positivo, y plagio es un tipo de copiar negativo.

    (Perdoname, mi espanol no es muy bueno)

  • Que es panda?

  • Una banda de pop punk mexicano, que ha plagiado hasta ahroa 38 canciones de bandas, si los buscas lo encontras, hay un monton de paginas antipandas

  • Ah ok, ha averiguado en Wikipedia. De lo que he leydo, parece que ellos no son muy populares!

  • si es cierto es muy parecida malditos copiones

  • POOPOO ES MALO>

  • Everybody smash up your seats and rock to this brand new beat!

  • clash till i die

  • Wow,you know they were right,it was revolutionary and still is.

  • "Young people shoot their days away...I've seen talent thrown away"

  • revolution rock!!

    Los fabulosos cadilacs papa!!

    ARGENTINO Y DE BOCA!

  • if'n i was stuck on an island and had only 1 cd i would hope this song were on there

  • ACE  SONG

  • Careful how you slide, clyde, all you did was glide

  • The clash make my pecker so hard

  • happy 30th birthday London Calling !!

    This album ( well the Clash itself ) has changed the wooorrldd !!!!

  • I'm pilled up and rattling at the moment lol. The Clash are the most inspiring band ever, though i'm more into Babyshambles at the moment no one, with any brains (not even pete doherty) could even sugest they were better than the Clash! I love you Joe! R.I.R 'n' R! (rest in rock n roll!
