Na današnji dan (22.12), 2002. godine iznenada je u 50-oj godini života umro velik čovjek, glazbeni Bog, Joe Strummer.
Neću puno pisati o njemu. Tko je upoznat sa Strummerovim radom zna o čemu govorim i zna zašto je on najveći. Tko nije čuo za njega neka i dalje živi u neznanju, njegov problem.
Danas pijem u njegovu čast.

Strummerville
You lit a flame in my heart
And it is burning still
And every time I hear you shout
It still gives me a thrill
I can see you up there
With your right leg pumping
Goodbye inspiration
Voice of a generation
Goodbye Inspiration
I won't be playing Strummerville again
You wore your heart on your sleeve
With honesty and pride
You gave me hope,made me believe
That what I did was right
You brought out a passion
That had long been missing
Yeah you brought out a passion
That you never stopped giving
Goodbye inspiration
Voice of a generation
Goodbye Inspiration
I won't be playing Strummerville again
And if music seems mundane
It's cos the companies get their own way
And all the young bands seem to say
Please turn our rebellion into money
So thanks for giving me my creed
I'll try to stay onside
Y'or helping me to dare to dream
After all this time
Cos I still see you up there
On a stage and playing
Yeah I still see you up there
I still agree with what your saying
Goodbye inspiration
Voice of a generation
Goodbye Inspiration
I won't be playing Strummerville again

P.S. Pošto sam HTML-seljačina i ne znam staviti glazbenu podlogu na blog, prepoučujem vam da poslušate njegovu obradu Marleyeve "Redemption song" ovdje ili da je skinete odavde (ako vam Avdo dozvoli). Tko želi čuti Strummerville od S.L.F. (gornji tekst) može je skinuti tu.
