The Clash were an English rock band formed in London in 1976 as a key player in the original wave of British punk rock.
They also contributed to the post-punk and new wave movements that emerged in the wake of punk and employed elements of
a variety of genres including reggae,
dub,
funk, ska, and rockabilly.
For most of their recording career, the Clash consisted of lead vocalist and
rhythm guitarist Joe Strummer,
lead guitarist and vocalist Mick Jones, bassist Paul Simonon,
and drummer Nicky "Topper" Headon.
Headon left the
group in 1982 and internal friction led to Jones' departure the following year.
The group continued with new members, but finally disbanded in early 1986.
The Clash achieved commercial success in the
United Kingdom with the release of their self-titled debut album, The Clash,
in 1977. Their third album, London
Calling, released in the UK in December 1979, earned
them popularity in the United States when it was released there the following
month. It was declared the best album of the 1980s a decade later by Rolling Stone.
In 1982, they reached new heights of success with the release of Combat Rock,
which spawned the US top 10 hit "Rock
the Casbah", helping the album to
achieve a 2× Platinum certification there. A final album, Cut the Crap,
was released in 1985.
In January 2003, shortly after the death of
Joe Strummer, the band—including original drummer Terry Chimes—were
inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In
2004, Rolling Stone ranked the Clash number 28 on its list of the "100 Greatest Artists of All
Time".
"Should I Stay or Should I Go" is a
song by English punk rock band the Clash,
from their album Combat Rock,
written in 1981 and featuring Mick
Jones on lead vocals. It was released in
1982 as a double A-sided single alongside "Straight
to Hell", performing modestly on global music
charts. In the United States, "Should I Stay or Should I Go" charted
on the Billboard Hot 100 without reaching the top 40. The song received greater attention
nearly a decade later as the result of an early-1990s Levi's jeans
commercial, leading to the song's 1991 re-release, which topped the UK Singles Chart and reached the top ten in New Zealand and many European charts. The
song was listed in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time in 2004.
Darling, you've got to let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
If you say that you are mine
I'll be here 'til the end of time
So you got to let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
It's always tease, tease, tease
You're happy when I'm on my knees
One day is fine, next is black
So if you want me off your back
Well, come on and let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
Should I stay or should I go now?
Should I stay or should I go now?
If I go there will be trouble
An' if I stay it will be double
So come on and let me know
This indecision's bugging me
Esta indecision me molesta
If you don't want me, set me free
Si no me quieres, librame
Exactly who'm I'm supposed to be
Diga me que tengo ser
Don't you know which clothes even FIT me?
¿Sabes que ropa me quedar?
Come on and let me know
Pero que tienes que decir
Should I cool it or should I blow?
¿Me debo ir o quedarme?
Should I stay or should I go now?
¿Yo me frio o lo sophlo?
Should I stay or should I go now?
¿Yo me frio o lo sophlo?
If I go there will be trouble
Si me voy va haber peligro
And if I stay it will be double
Si me quedo es doble
So you gotta let me know
Me tienes que decir
Should I stay or should I go?
¿Yo me frio o lo sophlo?
Should I stay or should I go now?
¿Yo me frio o lo sophlo?
