Talk:Straight to Hell (The Clash song)

Best Song
"It is also considered by the band members as being the best song they recorded." While I don't necessarily refute this, it is one hell of a statement to make without a citation. 71.206.217.214 (talk) 14:23, 16 October 2010 (UTC) (Sorry, I'm not signed in atm.)

What's this about King Solomon?
Where's the stuff about King Solomon loving dance come from? I thought that line in the song was about the impovershed conditions of the neighborhood. It was well known that King Solomon was rich and had luxurious palaces built. The discussion of the lines in the song isn't sourced at all, too. Is it original research, musings of a visitor to the page, or actually something from in interview or review of some kind? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.220.69.138 (talk) 01:24, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

It seems like the story of cutting the child in half would make much much more sense. 71.34.232.249 (talk) 01:16, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

I sometimes think...
I sometimes think when I hear this song about Jimi Hendrix's "May This Be Love"... It has a similar drum beat, chord progression and sometimes delivery (Strummer's "Water flows..." sounds like Jimi's "Waterfall..."). Perhapse Hendrix was a key inspiration for the song?Wasakithis 00:39, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Other media
I'm not sure how to add it to the page, but the movie "Straight to Hell" starring Strummer must be named after this song. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094048/?ref_=tt_mv — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.16.98.0 (talk) 12:03, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
