------ performed by The Clash
Hello | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/4/2008
Solomon was renowned for his wisdom in accepting all cultures to his Kingdom. This song resonates again in 2008 USa (little case is intentional) as we seek to discriminate against immigrants from that "other America."

The majority of this song reflects Strummer's thorough understanding of our nation's impact on the vietnamese, from Dien Bien Phu to the time we finally realized our abject failure in 1975.
So Mama-San says | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/19/2008
Not American, Western. That's "them damned Brits" as well and prejudices against the immigrant work force.
Mostly, to me it's about the Amerasian children that were bred and abandoned by GIs in Vietnam. King Solomon never really had much to do with Western civilization.
Great song. | Reviewer: meg | 12/12/2007
This is a great song. It really touches me. I agree, i believe it's a song about the american society and how it's let it's people down in the past. and the parts where joe says, "papasan, please take me home." it really touches me and brings tears to my eyes.
shivers | Reviewer: anth | 3/5/2005
i listen to this song (from the here to eternity live album track recorded in '82 boston usa), and shivers run down my spine, it is probably one of the most powerful performances by the clash.
its perfectly played and perfectly sung.
in my opinion its a song about american society and how its let down its people
