I'm beginning in the 1940s (1941, to be specific...I can't think of any 1940 movie I've seen, or at least liked). Unlike with music my knowledge of film isn't nearly as comprehensive so there are some years I'm just leaving out entirely, especially in the earlier decades.... but here we go...

"I've never done good things/I've never done bad things
I never did anything out of the blue.
Want an axe to break the ice, want to come down right now.
Ashes to ashes, funk to funky,
we know Major Tom's a junkie.
Strung out in heaven's high, hitting an all time low."
I love Bowie, and that song, but somehow I don't think that's quite what I want played at my funderal. Maybe Beat Surrender by the Jam instead. :-)
"Bullshit is bullshit it just goes by different names."

ah kenneth, beat surrender is a good one..though I gotta be buried with PunkChick and have Ashes to Ashes resouding in the creamaterium (geez, the way I spelled that word it seems like kinda porno phenomenon.....but you all know me, I never get sexually suggestive or into inuendo!!!!)............anywho, if I was to pick a song from the Jam to "die" with it would be Going Underground.......seems somewhat appropriate!!!

OK, straw, I'll bite...please clearly (with appropriate citations) enumerate in excruciating detail why you, a true dyed=in-the=wool punker find London Calling over-rated...................appalled, I am!!! Its damned hard, I'll tell you. But I know that the first 2 LPs are better, the first 2 LPs had the "true punk" sound, and the first 2 LPs did not borrow from the Members....yep Nicky Tesco was doing the reggae infused punk before The Clash and in fact released At The Chelsea Nightclub before London Calling. Honestly I only rate London Calling a distant third best from The Clash, behind Rope and The Clash.....I believe you've been hoodwinked by the "press" this album continues to get....its not the definitive punk album...not even close..Listen to those first two albums and you can still hear the magic from before the press went to their heads... Don't get me wrong..I'm not bagging London Calling..I'm just saying that around here it gets a degree of veneration I don't think it warrants... oh and what is the definitive punk album...."Bollocks" of course!!! |
