Play "Just Like heaven" for them on an acoustic guitar. Then you're in.

TheNowhereman42 04-14-2005 08:48 PM

hahahaha

so out of interest, did joe smoke? I've always assumed so, as he's english and of that generation, but you never see pictures of him smoking or anything. Or did he quit when he was younger and only smoke in the days of the clash?

Coma_Girl 04-14-2005 08:48 PM

he smoked a lot.and a lot of pot too.

CombatRock 04-14-2005 08:51 PM

Sean, do you still want me to post that article about the fight in germany?

TheNowhereman42 04-14-2005 08:51 PM

oh and by the way, the kind of girls i hook up with at parties usually only want a quick fix as well, so no one really gets hurt or anything

TheNowhereman42 04-14-2005 08:53 PM

Coma_Girl 04-14-2005 08:54 PM

"Being Joe Strummer's car, all efforts were made to keep the car in the exact condition in which he left it, this includes a pair of his signature sunglasses, a flashlight and a half-smoked packet of his favorite Rothmans cigarettes!!"

the guy who sold his car was a gay bastard.i hate him.

[QUOTE]and white riot...let fury have the hour is an awesome book heh?[/QUOTE]

My 500th post :cool:

White Riot! 04-15-2005 07:59 AM

ahahah do you know what the official them song to the world poker association is?

The Card Cheat! I laughed when I heard. :)



There's a solitary man crying, "Hold me."
It's only because he's a-lonely
If the keeper of time runs slowly
He won't be alive for long!

If he only had time to tell of all of the things he planned
With a card up his sleeve, what would he achieve?
It means nothing!

From the opium den and the barroom gin
And the Belmont chair playing violins
The gambler's face cracks into a grin
As he lays down the king of spades

But the dealer just stares
There's something wrong here, he thinks
The gambler is seized and forced to his knees
And shot dead

He only wanted more time
Away from the darkest door
But his luck it gave in
As the dawn light crept in
And he lay on the floor

From the Hundred Year War to the Crimea
With the lance and the musket and the Roman spear
To all of the men who have stood with no fear
In the service of the King

Before you met your fate be sure you
Did not forsake your lover
May not be around anymore

(Slower)
There's a solitary man crying, "Hold me."
It's only because he's a-lonely
If the keeper of time runs slowly
He won't be alive for long




Joe went to jail for hitting that guy in the audience , but that dick deserved a tele to the head anyway.


Joe actually talks about it in Midnight Jam on the Streetcore Album.

Midnight Jam is an instrumental song with a bit of joe speaking in it.

"Since the last program (refering to the clash) , ive been touring around the world with a new group. You name every jail in germany ,ive been there. Lets chill out abit with this very unsual song"


****ing cool

[QUOTE]ahahah do you know what the official them song to the world poker association is? The Card Cheat! I laughed when I heard. [/QUOTE]

:lol: Really? I'm going to watch poker today and try and hear it :).

And sorry for not posting very much this week, guys. I had water polo almost every day, but the season ends soon, so I will be a Clash whore again.

CombatRock 04-15-2005 01:09 PM

[QUOTE=white_riot]What was your idea?[/QUOTE]

my idea was for everyoen to post there favroite song with lyrics and talk about it and why you like it ...only one song though and make sure noone else gets the same song...

and maybe say somthing about every member of hte band

guns_of_brixton 04-15-2005 01:47 PM

I'm deciding between 2 songs for the favorite line of lyrics. Are we only supposed to do a line of two, or the whole song?

CombatRock 04-15-2005 01:53 PM

whole song..which ones you think your going to do?

white_riot 04-15-2005 02:29 PM

Thats a good idea. i'm thinking of doing White Riot but i'll probally change my mind soon. Is anyone doing white riot.

CombatRock 04-15-2005 06:24 PM

never would have guess you do white riot.....

hm...i might do clampdown or guns of brixton

guns_of_brixton 04-15-2005 07:32 PM

I'm not telling what song I'm going to do, I want to make it a surprise. :D

Forest_Fire 04-15-2005 07:49 PM

hmmm... I'm gonna have to look hard to find a great song that's not too cliche to use... hmmm

guns_of_brixton 04-15-2005 08:18 PM

I was considering "Remote Control" for a short time, but it's really the Anti Clash song.

Forest_Fire 04-15-2005 08:22 PM

I'll use "We are the clash"




























/is kidding, obviously

guns_of_brixton 04-15-2005 08:24 PM

I'll laugh if anyone does 1-2 Crush on You. It is the worst written song of [B]all time[/B].

Forest_Fire 04-15-2005 08:28 PM

/looks up lyrics

[QUOTE]
i gotta cum clean, i gotta come clean[/QUOTE]

haha. you may be right

guns_of_brixton 04-15-2005 08:31 PM

If Mick got to write every Clash song by himself, things wouldn't of turned out so well.

"I'm so Bored with You" "1-2 Crush on You"

Without Joe, the Clash would've invented emo.

xxGumbyxx 04-15-2005 08:35 PM

I call "Hateful" :cool:

Forest_Fire 04-15-2005 08:36 PM

I love the mixing on the vocals. When you're listening to it with your headphones on, those backup vocals sound really outstanding



great song

sketchyjoe 04-15-2005 08:38 PM

I want Protex Blue. The condom song.

guns_of_brixton 04-15-2005 08:43 PM

[QUOTE=sketchyjoe]I want Protex Blue. The condom song.[/QUOTE]

Great song. I never knew it was about condoms :lol:.

[QUOTE]I call "Hateful"[/QUOTE]

I love the backup vocals too.

sketchyjoe 04-15-2005 08:50 PM

It's clearly about Johnnies if you listen to the lyrics.

standing in the bog of a west end bar
guy on the right leaning over too far
money in my pocket gonna put it in the slot
open up the pack see what type i got

i didn't want to hold you
i didn't want to use you
protex, protex blue
all wanna do

it's a fab protective for that type of a girl
but everybody knows that she uses it well
it's the therapeutic structure i can use at will
but i don't think it fits my b.d. drill

sitting in a carriage of a bakerloo
erotica my pocket got a packet for you
advert on the escalator on my way home
i don't need no skin flicks, i wanna be alone

i didn't want to hold you
i didn't want to use you
protex, protex blue
all i wanna do

guns_of_brixton 04-15-2005 08:52 PM

I'm leaning towards doing Death or Glory.

Coma_Girl 04-15-2005 10:38 PM

lets keep the songs secret and if someone already choosed it, we just have to take another one...

can we use meskies songs too?cause i think their lyrics are even better than the clash lyrics, in a more subtle style maybe.or joe's stuff with the latino rockabilly war...or his solo career?

guns_of_brixton 04-15-2005 10:45 PM

Sure, anything written by any member of the Clash is fine :thumb:.

Revolution Rock!

It is a brand new rock
A Bad Bad rock , this here Revolution Rock!
Careful how you move mac , you dig me in the back
and im so pilled up that I rattle
I got the sharpest knife
so I cut the biggest slices
but I have no time for battle...

Everybody smash up
your seats and rock to this
brand new beat

This here music mash up the nation
This here music cause a sensation
Tell your ma, tell your pa
everything's gonna be all right
Can't you feel it? DON'T ignore it
Gonna be Arl-righ-hai-haight!

Revolution rock, I am in a state of shock
So bad, bad rock, this here revolution rock!

Careful how you slide, Clyde, all you did was glide
And you poured your beer in me hat
With my good eye on the beat, living on fixation street
And I ain't got no time for that. Hey!

Everybody smash up your seats and rock to this
Brand new beat
This here music mash up the nation
This here music cause a sensation
Tell your ma-ma, tell your pa everything's gonna be all right
Can't you feel it? DON'T ignore it
Gonna be Arl-righ-hai-haight!

Revolution Rock!

Yeah so!....get that cheesegrater going.....

Everbody!
Everybody smash up
your seats and rock to this
Brand new beat,
This here music mash up nations
This here music cause a sensation
Tell your ma-ma, beget your pa-pa everything's gonna be all right
Can't you feel it? DONT ignore it
Gonna be Arl-righ-hai-haight!

Revolution Rock!

To the coolest mobsters... in kingtown!

And the hardest guys... and the coolest girls

Is your heart so made of rock ,
that the blood must run around the clock?

Are you listening mobsters?....
Hey!...All people crawl gotta die! Whole cart of food goes rolling by
its food for thought mobsters~young people shoot their days away , ive seen talent thrown away!

Are you lone shark?..................The Organ Play!....And their dancing to the brand new beat!

This here music mash up nations
This here music cause a sensation
Tell your ma-ma, tell your pa-pa everything's gonna be all right
Can't you feel it? DONT ignore it
Gonna be Arl-righ-hai-haight!

I said A Revolution Rock!
