Covers: The Guns Of Brixton

August 14th, 2007 by Yiyo

English Version:

Original by The Clash. I’m going to take the easiest way, so, according to wikipedia:

“The song pre-dates the race riots that took place in the 1980s in Brixton but the lyrics depict the feelings of discontent that were building due to alleged “heavy-handedness” of the police that lead to the riots, the recession and other problems at that time.”

Versión en Español:

Original de The Clash, iré por la via más fácil, de acuerdo a la wikipedia:

“La letra de la canción pre-anuncia los disturbios callejeros que tuvieron lugar en la zona durante los años 1980. El sentimiento de descontento que existía entre los habitantes de Brixton por la brutalidad de las acciones policiales, la recesión económica de la época y otros conflictos son abordados en la composición de Simonon.”
