My wife and I saw Joe play just before he died -- at a casino in Atlantic City. (There's a film of that day showing Joe on the boardwalk approaching passers-by and asking them to come to the show.) The irony of the venue was not lost on Joe; he had a twinkle in his eye the whole evening. Before one of his political numbers, he said, "This next one is a love song." My wife yelled to him, "Sing it to me, Joe." Joe looked at her, smiled, and said, "It doesn't make any sense, but I'll try."
I saw him play after he died and it was revelatory
Joe strummer the future is unwritten is a great film
I caught him in columbus just before he passed. Thankfully!
That's a lovely story mate. I think he was a good bloke with a kind heart, more than just a musician. I remember the day we lost him very clearly and I was gutted. I hope he is in a good place with fiends now. Remembering you Joe.
I wish I could've seen him live. I loved The Clash and I loved him with the Mescaleros...
RIP Joe Strummer
I think of Strummer sometimes as a moral guide. Not a perfect man, I know, but someone who strove for better things for himself and humanity. We often look for inspiration in religion or the words of philosophers, but there can be wisdom even in the words of a child. I think Joe knew this. Thanks Joe, we're trying out here...
You summed what i think about Joe,his was so determinate and courageous and really it make us question everything now,Joe we miss you and will never forget you,rest easy!!
Agree 100% !!!!
F
Well said.
agree
A plaza named by Joe Strummer, in honour of him, was inaugurated in the Spainish city Granada last week, hope you people who love Joe come and visit this plaza.
Is it still around? 🙏
@@mr.t6142 Yes, it's still there.
For many of us, Joe was our best friend, even if we never met him.
Very true.
I agree
100％ agreement from Tokyo !!
Him and Tim Armstrong are my best friends
The older brother i never had
This is one of my favorite cover songs of all time, and a main reason why is that he sings in his own accent, instead of trying to imitate Bob Marley’s Jamaican accent. It makes the song his own without disrespecting the original. It also helps that, while he makes other changes of his own (adding to the instrumental, lowering it by a major 6th to match his vocal range), he also keeps the lyrics pretty much the same, keeps the same tempo, and still bases it around guitar. Just a wonderful balance of respect to the original and innovation.
"And I'll keep listening to the great Joe Strummer 'Cause through music, we can live forever." -Tim Armstrong. R.I.P
And I know
I'm indestructible
2:03 Big Tim looking good.
2020 and still the best video on youtube
RIP JOE
Right!❤❤
Same in 2022...👊
2023
2024
Cannot listen without crying/missing you. If only you were here now....
I know when I'm down I listen...the voice brings me up...true
Julie TRAVERS same here so sad
Julie TRAVERS I know; it’s hard. I miss Joe Strummer as well.
(JK; I feel you.. I still miss my ex too. But my aim is improving 😉)
Did not wanna like this comment because it was 77.
Sitting here - crying too
I was ten when Joe died. Nearly nine years later now and it feels like he's standing beside me pushing me along. The charity 'Strummerville' that was set up in his name have helped me and many other young musicians to get out there and play our music. Thanks to Joe I was able to record an album, so thank you man. Even after death you haven't given up on people. Thank you.
I'm still sad about it, tbh... a great talent stolen away by a heart defect... it's so rough.
I was 16 when he died, and even at that point he was incredibly special to me. Still miss him to this day. Wish he was still around now to help us all out in these crazy times
Joe and his music inspired me as I was a teenage rebel girl, it shaped me and helped me with anger and dissapointmet of surrounding reality. Always in my mind and heart. Thank you my hero.
i'm right there with you. those handful of guys saved my life so many years after the shows were over. every day, i remember that.
Joe had a heart of gold
an eternal rebel....
20 years today.
THE ONLY ONE THAT MATTERS
Thank you Joe!
"Without people, you're nothing"
Gone but NEVER forgotten, RIP Joe Strummer
THE FUTURE IS UNWRITTEN
Joe Strummer is my hero. I am 17, i never heard his music in his lifetime but now I have, he means everything to me. He showed me why it's important to make music that's more than pretty. It has to mean something to someone, it has to take you somewhere. He taught me that there is no bad form of music. He taught me that the world is a big place and it moves fast so you have to experience as much of it as possible otherwise you waste your life.
Joe, thank you for everything. You are missed.
All these years later I still can't listen to this without crying. Another great one gone too soon. RIP Joe Strummer
Joe Strummer has gained the highest level of admiration from me. He was a great human being and a great musician. We don't get people like him too often. R.I.P. Joe Strummer. The king is gone, but he's not forgotten.
Even if I never knew you, I consider you as one of my dearest friends. Miss you Joe!
I love you Joe, for now and always, thx for bringing that sunshine in all my heart. Watch on us with all your kindness and humanity, we desperately need it.
Strummer, and all The Clash will be ever one of the most influential bands of all the history. We have a debt of gratitude with the music of The Clash. We'll never forget their music and their authentic attitude. Thanks for all this moments.
On my darkest days, playing this lightens things up a little. Even on my brightest days, this song makes life a little brighter. The future is unwritten. Write your own happy ending.
You're totally right. I'm now in my darkest years since 2020, Hope you are fine now. Everything passes, and music is a parte of the cure
was having a beer in Sunderland UK with me brother when he told me Joe had died. i cried me eyes out.
Really?
why do legends like this not get praised more in society
❤️
20 years on today. Thank you for changing my life Joe.
2020 and this song still makes me cry
me too
Especially right now. The world is in shambles. We need a guy like Joe here. He will be forever missed.
His voice cracks before he starts singing. Because it was from the heart
❤️
It makes me cry, too. RIP Joe. He is in Heaven playing in that all - star band. 😢🙏
To day would have been joe s 68 th birthday your inspiration continues to guide us towards our personal liberation rest in peace dear Joe
R.I.P Bob marley,johnny cash,Joe Strummer
jim morrison lou reed jimmy hendrix.......but the musick lives forever
John Lennon pure (too)
I think this song sings to the soul of humanity and that's what we all need more of
Happy birthday Joe. I wasn't around to witness your influence on the world, but you are without a doubt the most insightful musician and are most certainly a huge influence. RIP
Beautiful. Always loved, never forgotten :,(
Just cried like a baby. Miss you, Joe....
theonlytruepunk Me, too. Every time I watch this.
+theonlytruepunk Me as well. The loss is still palpable.
+theonlytruepunk Me too man...
Joe still lives and sings and loves everyone. Thank you Joe.
Joe had the ability to change the way people thought about the world. It's amazing that one man could do so much for so many - it's a shame he only had 50 years here. Even 8 years gone, he's still changing lives one by one as new generations discover the Clash. Legend.
Happy Birthday Joe and another year and I will never forget all that you gave us FREEDOM!!
il never forget when i went to NYC for a Model UN simulation in university. we only had two days out of the week to walk around the city while everyone else went to ESB and Brooklyn Bridge I went to see Joe Strummer. As I stepped out of the cab and I locked eyes with the memorial I broke down in tears. this man who i never met a man who I had I only discovered his music 4 years after his death,and i was on my knees bawling my eyes out. thats the power you had joe. rip
12 years. This country needs you more than ever! RIP
11 years today, RIP Joe...
Stanley Blundell 16 now damn
“Without people you’re nothing.”
Without my beautiful wife and daughter I am nothing.
Thanks Joe, I needed that today. RIP
Joe inspired me to become a paramadic, massive respect from the UK, great post......
The world could really use Joe's optimistic wisdom and voice right about now!
We must love Joe in the way he was, in the way he saw our world, in the way he wanted it to be. He just wanted us to be free to see it, to understand it and to criticize it in the best way.
R.I.P. Joe, and bless him.
Greetings!
Bought the clash 1st album in 1977 when I was 18 still my favourite band I'm 66 now the only band that mattered ✊
I think his little speech before the song gives me as much chills as this song does. Beautiful song, amazing singer, perfect punk-rocker. I miss Joe. He changed my life and everything. "We're nothing without people." We need you in this world Joe, people are losing their ideology and faith. Come back please?
11 years later and still one of the greatest video tributes ever put together
When ever we feel like the forces of greed and corruption are grinding us down, there is Joe Srummer to lift us up with songs of freedom. The world is missing one of its prophets. Love you Joe!
Well I’m a 17 year old boy and I discovered The Clash this year I listen to their tracks everyday and think why does such a big part off other teens to pop? This is what music is al about, making a difference, inspire people, show them their not alone if they feel lonely, guilty, sad or mad in and about the world and their leaders, being an example for others who could change the world to in their way... trust me I might not have known Joe Strummer as much as a lot of you guys, but he lives on also in the heart of a lot of younger people. Joe is one off my many examples and he’ll be 4ever certainly in the days when fear and anger rule a huge part of this planet.
Rancid (Tim, Lars) Jarmusch, Buscemi and other paying tribute the the Greatest One
of course :)
@lioness of lechistan And Brett Reed/Branden Steineckert.
Takes a lot of passion to be Joe Strummer. RIP Joe.
Watching this makes me choke up. Every single time. Rest In Peace Joe. You were a helluva man.
Happy Birthday Joe I LOVE YOU
+Victor Matheus gay
+Jyzz Jnx so, what? Welcome to 21st century
+Jyzz Jnx What??!!!
Joe nailed this song in his own unique style and just proved yet again what a talent this guy was,is and always will be!
I bet heaven has never been the same since Joe went up there!lol
Miss u Joe
I miss Joe Strummer, Joe will remain alive in my heart and in the hearts of the fans. When I hear Joe's voice I cry and I think Joe deserves these tears
watch out NYC with this feel like Joe Strummer is still around..brings me to tears as always..Joe is brilliant mate and a real brother.."The Future is Unwritten"!!!
Joe will always live on, he changed lives. RIP
I love Joe Strumer I have ever heard a more beautiful song. I don't know why it makes me cry each time. There's so much heart and soul in his singing. I miss him. Thanks Joe, with love ❤️ RIHP
May God rest his mighty soul. Let us all stand with him and Bob Marley.
One of the most original musicians ever... The Clash are forever in my heart.
The song you sing is the song of salvation for me. Thank you, I love you.
Glad to see all these people (especially Tim and Lars) paying respects to this great musician. RIP Joe Strummer
Come back among us, Joe. These times need you so much...
Love this video. Always brings a tear to the eye. Great to see Lars and Tim on there, and Jim Jarmusch.
The brilliant Joe Strummer with the best cover of Marley's superb choon. Awesome song & singer.
Never saw the clash, but I got to see Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros at the Newport music hall one day. This was a very life-changing event, highly memorable.
I saw The Clash in Atlanta in '82. I hate that I never got to see him with The Mescaleros. My friends, Southern Culture on the Skids, played a show with them, and their bass player Mary has a picture of her with Joe.
This is a beautiful eulogy for Joe, he and his friends changed music and our lives forever. Wherever he is now, I hope he is with friends and at peace. ❤
you left us on this day....many years ago. we miss you a lot Joe. we miss artists like you. you're gone but you will never be forgotten
I was at the Joe Strummer memorial mural in the East Village, two days ago. A mys tical moment ... Maximum respect to somebody who maintained continuity, consistency, dignity and humanity till the very end. He is sorely missed !
joe still lives
This clip is so full of emotion, guys, I am crying...
In the lecture hall in Healey Library @ UMass Boston, someone carved "Joe Strummer 1952-2002" on the back of one of the seats.
Rest easy, Joe; your memory lives on.
Here again in 2024, was blessed in 2012 to travel to NYC to see this mural in person. RIP Joe. Wish I had stayed around in 2003-4 to see yall at Hootenanny in Irvine,CA
Id like to dedicate this song to my brother in law who sadly died yesterday r.i.p mate
Stay strong brodda 💪🏾
I'm sorry.
After sooo many years....Joe we need you now more than ever, I hear this every time and cry, your a flame that will never burn out, more inspirational as a songwriter than most now, I loved the clash, and his spirit lives on
a way of life and not just a band...
Marley and Strummer were one and the same just a couple of musicians whose passion for all they believed in made me sit up and listen.
Now 2022 and playing video. Still relevant. Rest in Paradise Joe. 🙏✌️👌🤘💜
"Without people, you're nothing. " I love Joe and every word and pre-song words of the most beautiful song I've heard ❤️ in so many years.
Joe is still so deeply missed... even more in these difficult times. The future is unwritten.
Ogni volta è sempre così, vedo questo video e mi commuovo. Joe Strummer, grazie...
Anche io Luisa, ogni tanto me lo riguardo anche io, ormai da un bel po' di anni e sempre mi commuove.
Everyone raise a toast to St. Joe Strummer.
16 Years gone today , Thank you for everything Joe
can't help but getting emotional listening/watching this video
9 years today. You're gone, but you'll never be forgotten. RIP Joe. You're the inspiration that has pushed me to do more, to be more, to live more. You've inspired so very many, and you continue to do so. Every time I see someone bearing your name it rekindles my hope for humanity. In a world full of corporate sounds, so still inspire the DIY mind. We miss you, I miss you. If there is something after this life I hope I meet you there, so I can say thank you. Thank you for everything.
RIP: Joe Strummer (21 August 1952 - 22 December 2002)
I think of Joe or listen to his music every day...this is the best version of this song EVER. Now I need to go home because I am sitting at my desk about to cry after watching this video. I will never get over the fact that Joe is gone.
Watch this every year, and it chokes me up every time
Once again, thank you!!!!
I still believe we can make a difference,
I still believe we can change the world,
I still believe the future is unwritten,
I still cry when I see this video!!!
Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!
I miss Joe Strummer. We need him.
More than ever!!
Absolutely! He was a very authentic artist and sincere with his writing... I miss that. Not to mention amazing performer live...
Probably the best concert I saw the Clash in 81' PHX!
Joe is the Godfather... I have a "The Future is Unwritten" 'tattoo. RIP Strummer!
Me too. On my right arm
Me too, on my throat
privileged to have seen you live Joe! Future generations don't know what they've missed. Heartfelt thanx !!
This always brokes my soul...even whit hope
This video always moves me deeply. You're missed Joe. We need these songs of freedom.
I was lucky to visit here in April very emotional for me as Joe was my hero.
Cant believe its the 22nd...i miss Joe more than anything. He made me who i am today.
I wish he could know how many people he touched. He will never be forgotten.
Thumbs up if Joe had an impact on your life
The greatest man I never knew still miss you like a family member
The world needed, needs and will always need Joe Strummer
Immortal Joe Strummer
My brother is a great admirer of Joe's and attends all tribute nights so I listened to all Joe's music and got to love it. He sang with genuine passion and feeling, God bless him.
The first time I heard this song's version it made me feel goose bumps !
I always think fondly of this man
Every time I hear his voice I feel good
Fantastico. Uno di quei video che vorresti non finissero mai. Grande Joe.
The flame still burns...
One of my favourite videos, I return to it periodically for a refresh
