God knows what lives in me in place of me.

I was listening to the Clash's "Should I Stay or Should I Go" on Pandora yesterday, and I remembered hearing a version of it when I was a kid that had Mick Jones saying "Bless you!" after the high-pitched "woo!" samples in the intro that sound like sneezes.

Like:

*Woo!*
MJ: Bless you!
*Woo!*
MJ: Bless you!
*Woo!*
MJ: Bless you!
*Woo!*
MJ: Bless...you!

The Pandora/album (Combat Rock) version doesn't have that in it, so where would I find the version that does?

Ha, thank you! Listening to the whole song, now I know why I haven't heard it since it was released.

This is more “identify a genre” than a song...

The mournful Eastern European-esque clarinet you can hear as a sample here (0:55 - 1:55) — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8v9JQ2f4XM&t=55s

or all throughout Tom Waits’ “All the World Is Green” —

...what kind of music is that? It sounds very much like the kind of clarinet melodies in Jewish klezmer music, but klezmer is also often joyful, upbeat, and fast tempo, and I feel like listening to a whole album of nothing but mournful clarinet music right now which doesn’t convey emotions like “happiness” or...idk...”hope.”

:smith:

But seriously, how would I search for more music like that?
