an anthem.

May I recommend the book 'An Essential Guide To Music In The 1970s' by Johnny Zero. The author is a big fan of this track.

[MrMacca72]

Joe, we need you more than ever

[helenabellamuerte]

My family doesn't understand why I don't . . . look up to rich people, I guess you could say. They don't understand why I'm happy in the middle class and don't want to aspire to be rich. Every time they talk about people with money or we drive through a "nice" neighborhood, I tell them, "I don't wanna hear about what the rich are doing. I don't wanna go to where, where the rich are going. They think they're so clever. They think they're so right. But the truth is only known by guttersnipes."

the Stone Roses based there "garage flower" on this......class tune

Guttersnipes

The Clash changed my life...I miss you joe...

[PunkLobo]

I live on Brazil, and you know, things are harsh here. These guys made me aware of my own situation. I mean, there's too much alienation and blindness on most of ppl here. TV manipulates your thoughts here (google "tv globo"), politicians just care about getting some dirty lobby and get their own corrupted money. Unemployement everywhere. Tons of shit that are just in front of our eyes everyday, but most of ppl don't see. The clash mde me smarter. Too much identification.

[11caulfield]

@PunkLobo Mate, that's what the rest of the world is like, too. Joe made statements that are still valid and the Clash songs stand the test of time.

[unclemort1960]

@PunkLobo things are bad here in england at present but things have always been hard in mexico for ordinary people .when i visited the USA in 1988 i walked over the border and could see the poverty

[MegaMumbles]

@PunkLobo Pretty much the same in the US. People can't not care about being aware. Shit's going down that they can't ignore. They have to wake up and smell the coffee.

[ajscitco90]

@PunkLobo the us aint to much better right now there buddy you got all these ppl think its great like everyones rich and shit but the us is in bad recession on national debt is at an all time high we keep getting idiot presidents making shit worse i live in pennslyvania its horrible here no jobs poverty stricken many family own stores i grew up with shut down its just bad

[theyakkoman]

Greatest band of all time.

[Baconmaninspace]

The roots of creativity are reflected by the lyrics of this song

[kodra1977]

would the group wear suits?

[lvsimo77]

mick would

[grahambigvan]

nunfucker !

[helenabellamuerte]

@grahambigvan LOL. Good one. I can tell you got that from "Death or Glory."

"He who fucks nuns will later join the Church."

[secondwindrecords]

but not because he'll then get a recurd deeeel :D

its suits him tho!

[RaptureandZune]

@lvsimo77 Mick wears suit in his current band "Carbon/Silicon"

[hangin10]

Probably not, but today I figure they might, considering almost nobody does (except that stupid random-tie thing). Be cool to watch a 40 year cycle develop.

[vominion]

@kodra1977 if you don't wear clothes you get a cold bum

[stuartandtheavenue93]

@kodra1977 it looks like Strummer is wearing one on the album cover... maybe it's ironic like the brigade rosse t-shirt
