Aim for the politicians fair, who treat your vote hope well...

The last thing they 'll ever do, acts in your interest......

[Warren Anderson]

Great song from a truly great album 'Entertainment'! Bought the vinyl in '79.... proud rock snob! lol

Heard for the first time at a party at my friends Alex and Eddy , summer 81 '...borrowed the album...still have it ...thank you mates !

No, get a proper copy. The capitalist arms manufacturer EMI had a fucking great studio and the Go4 used its capabilities to the full. Entertainment is one of the best sounding g/b/d records I've ever heard. And I've heard over 6 records.

[NormanArches]

If the Clash said the Go4 didn't matter then perhaps it was because their lyrics were intelligent and actually intellectually coherent, rather than screaming and shouting about her da kidz iz gonna take ovah like semi-illiterate children. One suspects Strummer didn't want to be outdone by a band containing people who actually understood politics rather than posturing to fan the flames of their egos.

"See the happy pair smiling close like they are monkeys."

An honest take on so-called romance.

Extremely hard not to dance to this one!!!

And it couldn't be more relevant to the current political and economic situation.
