[edit] Source

"Paul wrote the song because he was jealous about the money that Mick Jones and Joe Strummer were receiving from royalties." Is there a source for this?

Yeah, I think thats just conjecture and should be stated as such or not at all and even then a citation is needed. On a cheerier note, it's lovely to see how my little stub has blossomed! :)

[edit] Scractchy

Is this song supposed to be scratchy at the beginning, or is my CD screwed up?

Yeah, I think so. I believe it's one of the percussion instruments.

[edit] Maria Gallagher

Is Maria Gallagher, the young girl who sings a part of Guns of Brixton at the end of Broadway on Sandinista! Mickey Gallagher's daughter? Might be helpful to put in. --Soetermans 10:25, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
