Anyone heard Tijuana No! doing a version of "Spanish Bombs"? There's a CD on iTunes called Rockeras, it's a compilation of songs from Hispanic women. I downloaded the CD as I'm a big fan of "La Oreja de Van Gogh", there's some pretty good songs on there. There are more pop songs than rock but there's a version of "Spanish Bombs" on there.
It's pretty bad if you ask me. I give them credit for trying, and for getting most of the words right but it's pretty uninspired. It's one of my favorite Clash tunes so I doubt anyone can do any more than just copy it.
Spanish Bomb
Re: Spanish Bomb
While channel surfing across some spanish tv stations, i stopped because a song sounded familiar.
It was band fronted by a girl singing Spanish Bombs, it was ok. I'm thinking it was the same band
as mentioned in the post above.

Re: Spanish Bomb
There's a very nice, very moving version of "Spanish Bombs" by Melodee Fernandez..."Bombas Españolas." I was told that Joe Strummer became emotional when he heard the song...he thought it was that beautiful.
Re: Spanish Bomb
You got me curious now, BR16ADE, I want to hear it but so far no luck looking everywhere, iTunes, Limewire, Google searches. Please let me know if you have a source.BR16ADE_R055E wrote:There's a very nice, very moving version of "Spanish Bombs" by Melodee Fernandez..."Bombas Españolas."

Re: Spanish Bomb
The MP3 used to be up on the Strummer News MB. I have it, but I don't know how to upload it. I guess I could send it to you.ulysses wrote:You got me curious now, BR16ADE, I want to hear it but so far no luck looking everywhere, iTunes, Limewire, Google searches.
