When I was little I thought it was a song about a Sheriff, but why a King was calling out his Jet fighters to get a sheriff.....I couldn't figure that one out. And I thought it was Knock the Casbah...dunno, I was about 5.

Rock the Casbah - The Clash
Now the king told the boogie men
You have to let that raga drop
The oil down the desert way
Has been shakin' to the top
The shiek he drove his Cadillac
He went a' cruisnin' down THE VILLE
The muezzin was a' standing
On the radiator grille
CHORUS
The shareef don't like it
Rockin' the Casbah
Rock the Casbah
The shareef don't like it
Rockin' the Casbah
Rock the Casbah
By order of the prophet
We ban that boogie sound
Degenerate the faithful
With that craazy Casbah sound
But the Bedouin they brought out
The electric camel drum
The local guitar picker
Got his guitar picking thumb
As soon as the shareef
Had cleared the square
They began to wail
CHORUS
Now over at the temple
Oh! They really pack 'em in
The in crowd say it's cool
To dig this chanting thing
But as the wind changed direction
The temple band took five
The crowd caught a wiff
Of that crazy Casbah jive
CHORUS
The king called up his jet fighters
He said you better eaarn your pay
Drop your bombs between the minarets
Down the Casbah way
As soon as the shareef was
Chauffeured outta there
The jet pilots tuned to
The cockpit radio blare
As soon as the shareef was
Outta their hair
The jet pilots wailed
CHORUS
He thinks it's not kosher
Fundamentally he can't take it.
You know he really hates it.

I have no real problems with Casbah other than the fact that it is an old map. I would love to see "Magic" in rotation somewhere. . . . That map is built for fun and it is completely different than any other map out there. It's like a mixture of the best maps. Take 2Fort, Well, Crossover2, and that one with the gas (cant recall name) and roll them all into one! Throw in "prizes" for capping command points like quad damage and invisibility and bam! You have a sweet map. It is the largest map I have seen in a long time.
You could spend all day finding new sg and mg placements. Sniper positions all over the entire map. And the underwater portion is fantastic! The sky needs some work but the level as a whole is really amazing. It is a must see!

I like casbah, it's a fun map. We tried rock2 here, and that really blew ass becase it was a defensive stalemate the whole game. Casbah is really easy but biased towards red because blue's entire spawn is a narrower and easier to camp area (believe me I could set up shop w/ sg and dispenser and nobody will leave for a while). Red can be sniped more easily though from those damned windows. It's a fun cap map, far better than rock2. BTW cz2 rulez if you have good peeps playing and nobody plays flagrun (I love that map). |
