London Calling took on some serious topics, one of them being just growing up. And in this song, the guitar riffs are very poppy like say, The Beatles.</span></p> <p><span>Great song.<br/></span></p>http://memorexmix.tumblr.com/post/5190588638http://memorexmix.tumblr.com/post/5190588638Wed, 04 May 2011 11:18:00 -0400<iframe class="tumblr_audio_player tumblr_audio_player_5153046661" src="http://memorexmix.tumblr.com/post/5153046661/audio_player_iframe/memorexmix/tumblr_lklq94x5Q91qjfbie?audio_file=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tumblr.com%2Faudio_file%2Fmemorexmix%2F5153046661%2Ftumblr_lklq94x5Q91qjfbie" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" scrolling="no" width="500" height="169"></iframe><br/><br/><p>Ranking Full Stop// The Beat (AKA.
