Of all the songs that The Clash ever put out, the lyrics to Straight to Hell have always spoken to me the most. Its a song about the children of U.S. servicemen who were left behind in Vietnam after the end of our involvement there. However, this song has always moved me because it evokes my own personal struggles with never having a father who I really knew. I am part of a generation of Americans whom largely have absentee fathers. Like the Vietnamese sons and daughters of those soldiers who were left behind, I too wonder who he really was. He remains sort of a myth to me. Ill never know him now, but I still love him. https://youtube/watch?v=XdUtborIaiU
