...formerly of one of my favorite bands, The Clash, has died. No cause of death yet, but it appears to have been a heart attack. He was only 50.

Well that was unexpected to say the least, especially since I was listening to some of them on the Sunday... very strange, and very sad.

I hope this has nothing to do with an overdose. Too many drug deaths lately.

![]() Bloody hell, I've been miserable about this all day, he was one of my heroes. Truly a sad day. The Clash: "Stay Free" We met when we were in school Never took no shit from no one, we weren't fools The teacher says we're dumb We're only having fun We piss on everyone In the classroom When we got thrown out I left without much fuss An' weekends we'd go dancing Down Streatham on the bus You always made me laugh Got me in bad fights Play me pool all night Smokin' menthol I practised daily in my room You were down The Crown planning your next move Go on a nicking spree Hit the wrong guy Each of you get three Years in Brixton I did my very best to write How was Butlins? Were the screws too tight? When you lot get out We're gonna hit the town We'll burn it fuckin' down To a cinder Cos years have passed and things have changed And I move anyway I wanna go I'll never forget the feeling I got When I heard that you'd got home An' I'll never forget the smile on my face 'Cos I knew where you would be An' if you're in The Crown tonight Have a drink on me But go easy...step lightly...stay free

Spanish Bombs
Spanish songs in Andalucia The shooting sites in the days of '39 Oh please leave the vendanna open Fredrico Lorca is dead and gone Bullet holes in the cemetary walls The black car of the Guardia Civil Spanish bombs on the Costa Rica I'm flying in on a DC10 tonight chorus Spanish bombs, yot'quierro y finito yote querda, oh ma corazon Spanish bombs, yot'quierro y finito yote querda, oh ma corazon Spanish weeks in my disco casino The freedom fighters died up on the hill They sang the red flag, they wore the black one But after they died it was mockingbird hill Back home the buses went up in flashes The Irish tomb was drenched in blood Spanish bombs shatter the hotels My senorita's rose was nipped in the bud chorus The hillsides ring with 'Free the people' Or can I hear the echo from the days of '39 With trenches full of poets, the ragged army Fixing bayonets to fight the other line Spanish bombs rock the province I'm hearing music from another time Spanish bombs on the Costa Brava I'm flying in on a DC10 tonight Spanish songs in Andalucia, Mandolina, oh ma corazon Spanish songs in Granada.... oh ma corazon
