Good intent but culturally ignorant.
As Buddhists the Tibetan people believe in reincarnation and as such a "party up in the sky waiting for me when I die" would not make sense to them.
Also the pacifist nature of the people would not support the idea of "being a poor man in my grave than living as a puppet or a slave" with the violence that suggests.
well, the tibetans are the ones who are burning themselves (or were) so they would understand being free man in my grave than living as a puppet or a slave. you got the lyrics wrong btw tard. its the spirit of the song thats to be conveyeed not the words, although the words are good too. YOU FAIL
no fail and fail again- my pops took me took this movie by jimmy cliff a long long time ago and i think rancid was right on for doing jimmys' song -ska reggae punk -they all have their roots in radical...
Interesting interpretation. Not bad, necessarily, just very different. The upped tempo is sort of a nice diversion from the seemingly single tempo used in roots reggae. Not knocking either version. Although you have to give more credit to Jimmy Cliff for, you, know, writing it. Still, a pretty good version here.
fuck you men, rancid is doing his version of a great song, and i think they are honoring jimmy cliff, not screwing with just a song. even worse, it's for all the tibet liberation, i don´t think you could fit there, asshole :)
Punk version??? I don't agree totally. this is sounds ska. is not like they did a hardcore version. they were pretty respectfull. And man! is fotr the TibeT!
Yeah, this is more of a ska version. The Gimme Gimme version is more punk. but anyways, was this released on an album or was it recorded live or what? I know the video shows live footage of them playing this song, but was this on an album?
This song is not on Rancid's B-Sides and C-Sides album. Maybe you have some other bootleg B-Sides Rancid album with it, but its not on the official one.
I always loved this Rancid cover and especially this live video but it's taken a different light for me now because I'm currently taking a course in school on the art of Tibet. Cool to see some of the things outside a textbook.
the best cover of mr cliffs fantastic track !
