Les Clash en deuil: Joe est mort.

Deux mauvaises nouvelles

Deux mauvaises nouvelles.
La première, le mythique chanteur des Clash, Joe Strummer vient de passer l'arme là où il l'avait depuis longtemps, c'est à dire à gauche. Je m'étais emballé en apprenant qu'il était remonté sur scène pour soutenir la grève des pompiers londoniens en chantant une de ces chansons emblématiques: London's burning. Les Clash avaient réussi a mélanger un rock punk puissant le tout mêlé à des cris politiques du pertinence toujours d'actualité. Faut-il rappeler que Rolling Stone avait élu l'album London calling meilleur album des années 80.
On écoutera encore souvent Joe. Sa musique est un passage obligé dans la culture de la révolte du Xxème siècle. Ses chansons sont autant de Cocktail Molotov qu'on ne laissera pas refroidir. Promis.
Deuxième mauvaise nouvelle: Sarkosy est toujours vivant.

WHITE PUNKS ON HOPE
they said that we were trash well the name is crass not clash they can stuff their punk credentials cause it's them that take the cash they won't change nothing with their fashionable talk their rar badges and their protest walk thousands of white men standing in a park objecting to racism like a candle in the dark black man's got his problems and his way to deal with it so don't fool yourself you're helping with your white liberal shit if you care to take a closer look at the way things really stand you'd see we're all just niggers to the rulers of this land punk was once an answer to years of crap a way of saying no where we'd always said yep but the moment we found a way to be free they invented a dividing line, street credibility the qualifying factors are politics and class left wing macho street fighters willing to kick arse they said because of racism they'd come out on the street it was just a form of fascism for the socialist elite bigotry and blindness, a marxist con another clever trick to keep us all in line neat little labels to keep us all apart to keep us all divided when the troubles start pogo on a nazi, spit upon a jew vicious mindless violence that offers nothing new left wing violence, right wing violence all seems much the same bully boys out fighting, it's just the same old game boring fucking politics that'll get us all shot left wing, right wing, you can stuff the lot keep your petty prejudice, i don't see the point anarchy and freedom is what i want

ps rar=rock against racism.
