Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right, here I am stuck in the middle with you. How many times have I said that since this song was released in 1973? This is an anthem for those of us who do not suffer fools gladly.

In his obituary of Rafferty for the January 5, 2011 issue of the , Martin Chilton said of this song that it was written as a parody of Bob Dylan's paranoia, it ridiculed a music industry cocktail party, with the lyrics: Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the Right, Here I am, stuck in the middle with you.

From K-Billy's Super Sounds Of The 70's comes this "Dylanesque pop bubblegum favorite from April of 1974." This song will forever be linked to that heart-in-your-throat scene in 'Resevoir Dogs,' where Mr. Blonde proceeds to torture a cop, not for information, but because it "amuses him to torture cops." Classic Tarantino!

Whether you think it's a scene like Darth Vader telling Skywalker "I'm your father" in Return of the Jedi, the shower scene from Psyco, or Kong on top of the skyscraper in King Kong, or anything else for that matter is subjective. I've seen this scene listed in many lists by other people, entertainment websights, movie critic websights, etc. So I'm definitely not the only one who thinks very highly of the scene.

This song is in Quentin Tarantino's first movie, Reservoir Dogs. A mobster dances around a tied up cop to this song while dowsing him with gas and cutting his ear off. Sounds terrible but has some dark humor. You'll like the movie.
@stevedahlberg8680 2 жыл бұрын
Yeah it could be a co-worker for example. He doesn't sound too happy about it but what's interesting is the music sounds really upbeat and casual, in contrast. Asia picking out steel guitar now, that's great. I don't know if you have ever seen the Quentin Tarantino movie Reservoir Dogs, which is a hilarious and fantastic movie although it is pretty gritty. But anyway, the most suspenseful and terrifying scene in the whole movie has this song playing as happy music in the background and it is highly disturbing. Most of us that have seen that movie can never listen to this classic song in quite the same way again, laugh.

This song was released April 27, 1973. It peaked at #6 in the Billboard Top 100 in the U.S., and #8 in the UK. Gerry Rafferty and Joe Egan wrote the song in 1972. Gerry Rafferty left the band just before the song was released. Gerry Rafferty did come back to the Band latter in 1973. Thank y'all for the review of this song. This song now reminds me of our Congress. The Clowns are the Democrats and the Jokers are the Republicans.

I think it's a regular guitar played with a slide, not a steel guitar (I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure). I played in cover bands for 20 years and haven't played that much slide but one of our other members did. It can sound very similar to a steel guitar but steel guitar players usually have metal finger picks on their fingers whereas slide guitar players are not as likely to. The difference is subtle.
