I was born in 1960'. This band and this song particularly Modified more or less my view of life. I've heard this song thousands of times. I never get bored to listening to it. High top in my top 10.
This is why Joe Strummer was the greatest and probably most underrated song writer of the 20th century. Taking a traditional anti war song and giving it a kick in the balls. What a legend!
For another alternate "Johnny comes marching home" check out the version by Danny Wagner (1968). If Strummer/Jones heard that rendition it may have been the inspiration for "English Civil War"...
Hello everyone! Excuse you, is this song related to an answer against the inequalities and the political and financial speculations and wrong choices that affected the young people in the '70-'80s in Uk?

1 of so many great songs by the CLASH,even the b-side of this record is great pressure drop i would call it a double A-SIDE.

Fantastic and brilliant still to this day!!!
Saw them in Berkeley in 79, and Kezar and the Warfield in 80 - One of the best Bands I've seen!
My third favourite Clash song behind white man and complete control. 😊
this actually aged well. more relevant now than ever .. 👍
Nobody understands it could happen again
Im coming up to 65 and these are up there with the best
You'd be 69 now. Are you still rocking to the Clash? Hope so
"and who got caught out in their under-wear."......c'mon we all sang that didn't we? Joe would have wanted it that way.
I thought it said beatnik fear too.
"Get his coffin ready,'cos Johnny is coming home...." :( My favorite part.The end.
I Hate War too.
My favourite part too! Although, when I made this video I didn't get what he said. Cheers!

Fuk off!.
An English field.
See film.
Yes
Did they do a version of the Dropkick Murphy's song or is it the opposite?
+luiz Nogueira ha ha ha
+luiz Nogueira None of the two. It is a traditional anti war song from the early '800 :)
Giovanni Cesaretti Oh, ok. Thanks :D
Who the fuk are the dope lick furreys.
Hardly likely when it was recorded 20 years before the DMs were even formed! 😂
On 2.17 I always thought it was "All The Girls go oh . . . . ."
vss 1963, your right it is all the girls go oh
It was..still is I think..
leo hadj They're both based around the same traditional song, so that's why they're so similar :)
TOMMY TOMMY TOMMY TOMMY ROBINSON

substitute "American" for "English"................rings pretty true, seemingly. Prophetically so, I'd say.

1:53 クソにしちゃえらく小っちゃいなに聞こえる！

Not a fan of Jimmy Jazz, I take it?

#FREETOMMYROBINSON
Strummer would hate that Racist maniac
The Clash's vocalist sounds like Stewie Griffin
