\nDer er en anden verden p\u00e5 billedet her ovenfor, fra en tidlig for\u00e5rsaften i 1981. Twin Towers (l\u00e6ngst bagude) har stadigv\u00e6k mange \u00e5r at l\u00f8be p\u00e5 og The Clash – et af de 1-2 bedste rockbands nogensinde – findes endnu. I dag for pr\u00e6cis 27 \u00e5r siden, d. 10 november 1978, blev deres anden plade “Give ‘Em Enough Rope” udsendt. “Rope” er nok det svageste af de 5 Clash-albums, men indeholder alligevel nemt en h\u00e5ndfuld uomg\u00e6ngelige klassikere, som nedenst\u00e5ende, om Mick Jones og Joe Strummer’s akavede Jamaica-bes\u00f8g:<\/p>\n

“SAFE EUROPEAN HOME”<\/p>\n

WELL, I JUST GOT BACK AN’ I WISH I NEVER LEAVE NOW
\nWHO DAT MARTIAN ARRIVAL AT THE AIRPORT?
\nHOW MANY LOCAL DOLLARS FOR A LOCAL ANAESTHETIC?
\nTHE JOHNNY ON THE CORNER WAS A VERY SYMPATHETIC<\/p>\n

I WENT TO THE PLACE WHERE EVERY WHITE FACE IS AN
\nINVITATION TO ROBBERY
\nAN’ SITTING HERE IN MY SAFE EUROPEAN HOME
\nI DON’T WANNA GO BACK THERE AGAIN<\/p>\n

WASN’T I LUCKY N’ WOULDN’T IT BE LOVERLY?
\nSEND US ALL CARDS, AN’ HAVE A LAYING IN ON A SUNDAY
\nI WAS THERE FOR TWO WEEKS, SO HOW COME I NEVER TELL
\nTHAT NATTY DREAD DRINKS AT THE SHERATON HOTEL?<\/p>\n

NOW THEY GOT THE SUN, AN’ THEY GOT THE PALM TREES
\nTHEY GOT THE WEED, AN’ THEY GOT THE TAXIS
\nWHOA, THE HARDER THEY COME, N’ THE HOME OF OL’ BLUEBEAT
\nYES I’D STAY AN’ BE A TOURIST BUT I CAN’T TAKE THE GUNPLAY<\/p>\n

Yeah? Rudie come from Jamaica Rudie can\u2019t fail
\n Rudie come from Jamaica Rudie can\u2019t fail
\n Rudie come from Jamaica cos Rudie can\u2019 t fail
\n Rudie come From Jamaica rude cant fail
\n Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie can\u2019t fail
\n Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie can\u2019t fail
\n A-Rudie loot and a-Rudie shoot and a-Rudie come up then back down
\n Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie *&^$&\u00a3\u201d\u00a3%\u00a3
\n Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie can\u2019t fail

\u00a9 Joe Strummer
