I agree it's still a great song. It's a shame a music group felt hat they needed to address the issue on a worldwide scale. I was to believe "When in Rome, do as the Roman's do"!!! In other words, when in America, one should speak English for the most part, if possible. And, when in another person's country, you respect their traditions!!! When went to Italy, my grandmother made me speak Italian b/c her parent's didn't teach her cuz she was being raised as an American in America. Sure, they followed ld school traditions w/ in he hme but that ws it. When I lived in Mexico, I spoke Spanish & followed their traditions such as Cinco de Myo, etc. In my home there, I continued my Italian cooking & traditions. What was wonderful is we all learned to appreciate our differences; not ee the as negatives. Maybe, we can all learn from this tale!!!! The world would be far more tolerance & a lot less hate; in my opinion ONLY. What does everyone else think???

@@elisacucc1967 It was the Islamic revolutionaries who banned music in Iran, the tradition had been that it wasn't banned. On a wider level, music is part of the human race's tradition. Trying to ban music is against nature, and is not respectful of our tradition.

Favorite Moment: when the sheik is dancing as he is gassing up the Cadillac. Gets me every time.

I am in the eighth grade. In my class, there is a kid who has some sort of learning disability, but it has never been specified what exactly is wrong with him. Anyway, on my last day of seventh grade, he invited me to his house for a "dance party," and since one of my other friends was going to be there, I said "sure." When I got there, the two kids were taking turns playing songs on KZread. I put this song on, and it's been his favorite song ever since. He asks me to pull out my phone and put it on everyday, and he mimics Joe Strummer's dances and expressions. He knows every word, and it brings all of us joy when we see him dancing and singing along.

It's a shame that so many people misinterpret this song. "Rock the Casbah" is meant to mean "jam out to music," not "blowing it up." It's an ode to disobeying tyrants. In the song, even the Sharif's jet fighters ignore the unreasonable orders given to them and tune into the music instead.

The BASS guitar rifts in this song and the Who's "Emminence Front" are classic.

What an iconic fucking sound. Probably top 3 most sampled rock songs ever.

I used to love this album ( Combat Rock). I was age 13/14 living in New Zealand and had this on cassette. Remember them ! ? These days kids think cds are old fashioned !! I used to listen to it on my walkman, loved every song on the album. Now im 42, where did the time go ! I dont really want to get older, lose my vitality, energy and strength, but i dont want to die either. Life is a strange thing.And If you find love with someone then dont mess it up, its hard to find, thats my tip of the day, maybe even my tip of a lifetime

Why do you think that kids think CDs are old fashioned? Not all do. I appreciate the comment, but as a "kid" by definition, I can definitely tell you that I believe the CD is an amazing revolutionary technology. Maybe it's just me, but I personally believe the Atari 2600 is new technology.

I read Joe actually shed tears when he heard a missile with the words “Rock the casbah” written on it by US military members was fired on Iraqi people. If war could be only fought by the old men who initiated it & no other civilians, wars might be far less frequent, might solve problems another way. Singing & dancing is far better than fighting & killing. RIP Joe!

@@micaheiber1419 No, actually the quality of art is declining in general. It's not a myth, it's a known movement called postmodernism, which claims that aesthetics and beauty have no objective standards. And it has slowly been taking hold of our society and cultural standards more and more, decade by decade. It's even objectively true that movies are doing worse in terms of sales and public interest. I'm sure that good music is still being created, but the problem is that it is being spread thin, and it is not being promoted as it has historically, probably do to our superficial society and culture losing its ability to know what good aesthetics are. Too much propaganda as well.

Now the site of the tallest building in Austin, The 6th and Guadalupe. The hotel also seen in Pancho and Lefty video. 03:05 is the Crest Inn, now The Line hotel. The City Coliseum, gone.
