do you get the point of The Clash? :p

on the clash (uk verison) is white riot played live..if any one has heard that version white riot sounds live or somthing of that nature

[QUOTE=White Riot!] "Joe was one of the truest guys you could ever meet."[/QUOTE]
I never met Joe but I'm sure it's true, and that's why the world is more miserable than ever since he died.True people are hard to find.

I don't think I've ever heard it. I only have the US version.

Original pressing... wow.

And to Travis, yea, the US version is the one with the sirens at the beginning.

By the way has anybody ever heard the version of Career Opportunities on Sandinista? Its really funny :lol:.

I heard a clip of it and thught "What the hell?" The other version of Career Opprtunities is one of my favourite songs

By the way, thanks a lot White Riot and Andy for helpling me with my project :thumb:

I think the guy who sings it is like 7 years old. Sandinista has alot of weird songs.

sandinista is a piece of art.it's just...HUGE.

whats so funny about it?

[QUOTE=combatrock*bass]whats so funny about it?[/QUOTE]

The vocals are done by a little kid, and the lines "I hate the army an' I hate the R.A.F. I don't wanna go fighting in the tropical heat. I hate the civil service rules, and I won't open letter bombs for you." are replaced with "I hate all of my school's rules. They just think that I'm another fool."

Joe was one funny guy.It's enough to make the song funny.Even when the song is about something serious, theres always a line that makes me laugh

I have the UK Version and White Riot doesnt sound live. I'm pretty sure it is not live.

I just want my 1000th post to say that Joe Strummer is my hero. Death or Glory is a serious song, but I always crack a smile when I hear " He who fu.cks nuns will later join the church." Joe may have left us, but this thread will always keep him alive :).

That last part sounded a bit religous.

Congrats on the 1,000!!

Joe Strummer is a god.

[QUOTE=skankinBassist]Congrats on the 1,000!!

Joe Strummer is a god.[/QUOTE]

Thanks ;).

Wooo. We got our 1000th posts on the same day. Even though I joined about 5 months after you. :upset:

Anyway, this is my 100th post in this thread, therefore it is special




And my clash project for school is looking awesome

In before the 1,000th post!!!!!

I'm glad that my 1000th post is in the Joe Strummer thread, and that it's the same day as Ska Pirate (forgot your name again, you can throw rocks at me) and Sean got theirs.Party at my house guys.
I remember my first post here was about The Clash.So now, you all already know I'm a clash whore.I don't even know why they mean so much to me.Well, yeah, I know, but I won't get in the details cause it's emo and boring.I love the clash....and I love Joe...twilililili

Clash City Rockers!

I'm in love with this thread. :thumb:

[QUOTE=combatrock*bass]wait i though u just said you did[/QUOTE]

You had better remember Ska_Pirate's name.


It's the same as mine, and that is important.
