What a masterpiece, and what an incredible story behind it.

So ironic, that he practically plays every instrument on the whole song, and he's not even in the video, and it's one of their hugest songs. Most underrated drummer ever. Ivan Meets GI Joe off of Sandinista is his also.

I would love to know what his real lyrics were when he wrote this song .

Joe Strummer wrote the lyrics. Topper only wrote the music. Drum Bass Piano

Jonas Carstensen nope . Topper wrote original lyrics that were so filthy Joe rewote them .
@leeving2999 7 жыл бұрын
Jonas Carstensen the original lyrics were by Topper about his ex-girlfriend but didn't last very long . Joe told this story himself in interviews and explained that he took them in a different direction because they were too x-rated . Obviously this was the correct choice but I will always be curious about what Topper had to say about his ex that was so dirty that they were completely was re-written .

He was rushing, only showing the gist of the part. Also, Topper's been through a lot since he wrote and played that tune
