Celebrate our things in common not diffrences thats what the Clash was about- Were all poor never been about anything but Rich and Poor. Clash City Rockers Stay Free.
Classic rock rules, thats a damn fact. modern "mainstream" musicans will never be as great as the classical rock n roll..beacause it dosent mather how mutch they sale.today, music is all about making money. And face it since "popular" music from elvis-beatles-pink floyd...and well you know all the rest from 50`s-90`s greatest, from the 90`s music was to fade away..ahh well my point is. its hard to be ORIGINAL theses days, and most of the music today is made by mixboard and to me thats aint music
Today is early 80's ska day at Bruce & Juliet's house with Selector, Specials, English Beat, and my favorite-- Rudie can't fail by Clash. I'll see you all at one of those other bands site.--Oh and don't forget fishbone 'Party at ground zero'. Cheers!
I love this song. And I also like music that's more recent. For fuck's sake, why does everyone who likes older music need to go on and on about how horrible all modern music is? I agree, the Justin Bieber's and Miley Cyrus's are incredibly annoying and it'd be ok if they stopped, but there's still some good stuff being made out there. I just don't understand why such a MASSIVE amount of people who like older music (or who are older) think all modern music is shit.
Great song-Apart from being one of The Clash's best (along with 'White Man in Hammersmith' & 'Complete Control'), it now always reminds me of the 4-2 FA cup win over Liverpool 1997-Zola, Hughes, Vialli, Gullit player-manager. BBC played it at the end of the game. Could say it was the moment modern Chelsea started. New season here-Forza Chelsea!
Well, really, most types of music wouldn't exist if it wasn't for black people. Black slaves invented Blues, the mother of Rock. Y'know - "Blues had a baby and named it Rock" and so the evolution continues. 'cept Rock these days is dull, sure there's decent bands... but they lack soul band's like the Clash had.
"its funny how all the white people made these amazing classics and all the blacks are remixing them with some bongo drums on top. we will never fail"
this ska stuff came from Jamaican (blacks) rock steady music. This is totally a Rocksteady beat--so don't even start with blacks sampling white music--cuz many a white band got their music from blacks and in the end who cares--musicians are inspired by other musicians and they are all artists. Don't even get me started on Led Zepplin and all the blues songs they were "inspired" by...
theres still good music being produced. there was plenty of garbage on the radio back then too. you have to sift the trash to find good music now, but it was the same then.
@BluetoothsR4Retards They can still grow up listening to good music. I'm not old by any stretch of the imagination (22) but I still grew up with great music. I grew up listening to what was then classic rock and is now oldies.
@BluetoothsR4Retards yeah im in that generation! It can kiss my ass. Screw miley cyrus and all the songs that are about screwing some chick that gave them aids. Seriously?? Im so with you!
@BluetoothsR4Retards they still have the oportunity to listen to it as much as you did (except live) now with the internet and ipods and all that, just expose them to good music :D
@BluetoothsR4Retards lol thats very ignorant... im sure your parents said the same thing about the clash and stuff back in the day. then when the youth gets older some of them like you are going to bitch about how music isnt like it was when they were there age...
