JOE STRUMMER AND THE MESCALEROS - REDEMPTION SONG

[AustinIsAPunkRocker]

why'd death take Joe? of all the people in the world. He is a true hero. A citizen of the world, he could have brought world peace... I can honestly believe that.

[KingAlanI]

excellent, making a memorial video for one of his own recordings

[jstrummer101]

Joe, Joe, God, you give me such hope. People, people, you say can do anything. And Joe, you knew it, because you were just a man, doing what you loved, giving people HOPE! This video gave me tears in my eyes. Joe, thank you, thank you for being there to help us along in these rought times. I love you Joe, I miss you. Rest in peace.

[Tw1ar]

[DaveGilmourIsGod]

If you listen to this every day for the rest of your life, at least three or four times, you still won't have heard it enough. Viva Joe. We love you.

[SubMariner11]

I love this, and I like the rancid cameo. I wanna know if some of the other people were musicians or celebrities cuz some looked familiar

[Clampdown100]

My tears are falling when I listen to this fantastics song...Still miss you Joe.

[gillmengreen]

I HAVE ALWAYS LOOKED UP TO JOE STRUMMER AND ALWAYS WILL MORE THAN ANYONE ELSE I HAVE EVER MET. HIS SPIRT LIVES ON THROUGH ALL THOSE WHO LOVE HIM. and this is the best acoustic song in my opion.

[njlacrosse9]

[fridogg]

"bring humanity back" Joe we love you. God took Joe from us to awaken us. Look who wrote this song, another on of God's angels.

[angelsea21]

Sure do miss you Joe.

[pata4180]

This video gives me goosebumps everytime I see it

Never fails. 

[Dookiebassplayer]

Your the man joe,your the man. the world lost,A genius,a great artist,a punk-rock warlord.

[TheSallih]

miss you joe...this video makes me cry

[untilweburninthesun]

amazing song.

[DevilWearsSneakers]

Only Joe could sing a Bob Marley song and make it better.

His voice gives something special, and this video is just a perfect tribute to the great man and artist he was.

BEST COVER EVER. you just can love it.

[galidroo]

agree with codadilupo91. although it's boarding on blasphemy, i think this is better then the original too.

[chicae62]

"I like to say : People, people can change anything they want, And that means every thing in the world! show me any country, and there will be people in it. It is time to take the humanity back into the center of the ring. Think of that! without people we are nothing" Joe Strummer <3<3 <3

[jimtrash1020]

i want this played @ my funeral

[codadilupo91]

it's my favourite Bob Marley's song, but I feel that Joe's version is also better... this video is so touching...

[AndresUppsala1]

peace out

[GothTown]

Sad birthday Joe.

Miss you.

[WARRIORPARK]

[LiciousBrown]

he is survived by all the hearts of the people who were changed for the better by him and his art.

[Larkin95]

[Clashfan100]

Joe Strummer is not dead he is in our hearts forever and will always be there. He made a legacy with the Clash and other acts by making his music remembered then and forever

[SlavicPurpose07]

@Clashfan100  AGREED!!

[DuPlunk]

that memorial in the east village is the most kick ass thing iv'e ever seen. all the music he's contributed to the world is breath taking i don't care what anybody says, joe is THE MOST AMAZING PERSON IN MUSIC HISTORY!

[SlavicPurpose07]

@DuPlunk 100% spot on...

[richiesking]

Thanks Joe.Miss you mate.

[joeygarage77]

i can say, one of the most greatest writers among music, next to dylan and Jim, Joe is the one that just makes us get up and realize who and what we are, and how to be free

Know your rights!

[Spraycando]

So we all got to sing these songs of freedom. The sooner you learn the sooner we are free. Whats stopping you? Sing loud and sing true!

[smallstones]

Thank you Joe.Seven years and the emptiness is still as raw inside.

Stay Free my friend.

[kacia69]

sono passati 7 lunghissimi anni da quando te ne sei andato...ma sei sempre nel mio cuore...ciao JOE...

[Giambojembo]

i'm crying

[Martunez]

God bless Joe Strummer.

[magicucatky]

Estoy llorando, gracias Joe por tu legado... A mas de 30 años de los Clash, no te olvidamos, y seguis inspirando generaciones q nisiquiera vivian cuando cantabas :'-(

[vulcano773]

tienes toda la razon yo soy de esa generacion en la que cuando el cantaba yo todavia no existia, ojala hubiera podido ir a algun concierto suyo, pero bueno aun quedan las canciones no te olvidamos joe

[KanariasLibre7]

joe DEP

[SonyVor]

Joe, thanks.

[jeffking80]

How can you not cry?

[sor7en07]

[Dookiebassplayer]

Well Joe is probaly singing songs by a campfire right now.

[daviddowns81]

thank you to Hellcat and those involved in the making of this video, for making such a beautiful piece of work, and a video that goes well with it, this is absolutely stunning and heartbreaking to listen to, I never got a chance to Meet Joe, but I feel like I know him so personally from the music he gave us..

The Future Is Unwritten !

also, for those who have not heard the version Joe recorded with Johnny Cash, you should !

watch?v=BGVSTsgcCvw

[adashofcole]

i think you guys also my favorite musician my inspiration to make music

[PoisonMandy15]

Joe <3

[carlettaaaa]

[iippab]

[carlettaaaa]

Ooh thank u so much! U are so kind !

[blojbabis]

Rest in Peace!

Joe will never die.

[kafkcastillo]

[atacksh]

αιωνια σου η μνημη joe strummer

[MrFrarock]

Joe uno di noi.

[Mattytars]

"Everytime you feel down and out, remember, your alive. Live everyday to the fullest....your alive man" - Strummer

[eamonrhino]

A Real Hero

[Nepze123]

Respect goes to a good man in truth, Joe Strummer

[NuNegus]

It's fitting that Joe should take one of the most famous reggae tunes in the world and make it an anthem all his own. It truly depicts him to a T, just as it did Bob Marley - and like Bob, this was one of Joe's last recordings.

We love you, Joe!

Strummer never died!

[JohnnyCoolMusic]

It's not a reggae song but what the hell... it's on my top 5 world's greatest songs!

I give a award to all of those who cover songs with their hearts!

Peace to you bro!

Johnny cool, Montreal, Canada

[PartyBoy64]

Forgive thy summer, which is spent

Without Joe Strummer!

R.i.P

[adriangouws]

cant help getting all teary when i see this vid,and ive watched it about a hundred times!!!:(;)

[adalee74]

respeto y admiracion ...the visionary of punk,thanx for radio clash,i get out off streets...from puerto rico,you live forever and we missed your music in the island,but the feeling is in our hearts.

[dearshitheadx13]

this video makes me cry everytime.

and what he said before the video just makes you think, y'know? i could listen to this man talk for hours. when he died the voice of a generation went with it and i don't think it can ever be replaced.

- through music we can live forever.

[skelper99]

well said...I feel pretty much the same. Joe Strummer was unique!

[AJ10821082]

at 2:38 thats steven buchemi right?

[blackleathermojo]

Yeah, he was a friend of Joe's. They acted together in a film called Mystery Train.

[crimeykid]

directed by jim jarmusch, the white haired guy in this video

[AJ10821082]

I'm a BAD guy ,really but this makes me get mushy GOOD JOB really The Clash are fuckin all that and im 40 [today] and remember them FUCK YEAH

thanks joe

[punkxrockerx95]

greatest loses in punk music:

1) Joey Ramone

2) Johnny Ramone

3) Dee Dee Ramone

4) Joe Strummer

5) Kurt Cobain

[MAIDENENGLAND08]

Kurt Cobain wasnt punk

[punkxrockerx95]

grunge is punk and metal fused together and nirvana was a more punk based grunge bad

[youngtotbeyondthesea]

Their exists no such thing as punk. Yes Kurt Cobain is probably a loser.

[punkxrockerx95]

ok u no wat if u dont like kurt cobain fine u dont have to talk shit about him ok
