I REALLY need to get some Clash albums. Once again, RP is educating me.

This is not my favorite Clash track by any stretch, but this does fit nicely after Johnny Cash's "The Man Comes Around." This is why I listen to RP instead of Pandora. I don't have either track and wouldn't have put them together.

The Clash, always on a higher level. As to the lyrics, the theme itself sets this song milles ahead of other bands. The music fits the lyrics. It´s not a song to dance or to bang your head. It´s The Clash.

The "When the Man Comes Around"/"Straight to Hell" segue should win an Academy Award!

The lights dim.....the crowd surges forward with a roar.....The Pogues have used this as their walk-on music every time I have seen them since 2005. Whoo Hoo!  |

Boring. Could have been made with a 1980 drum machine and a microphone.

Alas, it was the Dick Ebersol era (Eddie Murphy cast), so we won't ever see the whole thing rebroadcast. We happened to have taped it (on Betamax!), so I watched it, like, ten times. I was really surprised that they chose this as their second song.

Agreed, doesn't even sound like a "normal" Clash song. |

The Clash - Straight To Hell, Live (80's)
Live at the US Festival 1983.
If you can play on the fiddle
How's about a British jig and reel?
Speaking King's English in quotation
As railhead towns feel the steel mills rust water froze
In the generation
Clear as winter ice
This is your paradise
There ain't no need for ya
Go straight to hell boys
Y'wanna join in a chorus
Of the Amerasian blues?
When it's Christmas out in Ho Chi Minh City
Kiddie say papa papa papa papa-san take me home
See me got photo photo
Photograph of you
Mamma Mamma Mamma-san
Of you and Mamma Mamma Mamma-san
Lemme tell ya 'bout your blood bamboo kid.
It ain't Coca-Cola it's rice.
Straight to hell
Oh Papa-san
Please take me home
Oh Papa-san
Everybody they wanna go home
So Mamma-san says
You wanna play mind-crazed banjo
On the druggy-drag ragtime U.S.A.?
In Parkland International
Hah! Junkiedom U.S.A.
Where procaine proves the purest rock man groove
and rat poison
The volatile Molatov says-
Go straight to hell
Can you really cough it up loud and strong
The immigrants
They wanna sing all night long
It could be anywhere
Most likely could be any frontier
Any hemisphere
No man's land and there ain't no asylum here
King Solomon he never lived round here
Go straight to hell boys |

With the proper credit for that joke belonging to Billie Crystal. Having pulled it out at a party recently the joke bombed pretty hard. I soon realized the person I was telling it to was too young to know about Wings.
Wow! So I was actually the butt of the joke as I haven't heard about Billie Crystal saying that. LOL!! That changes my whole respect for that younger pup! |
