    This was our wedding song and meant so much to us. My husband died suddenly 2 weeks ago. His funeral was today. I played this song after I read my Eulogy. It took on a different meaning but still said so much. x

    I'm reading the comments and loving that there are so many of us that remember when these brilliant tracks came out for the first time. To be perfectly honest, there were so many good bands coming out continuously throughout this time and such a variety of sounds that we were literally spoiled for choice. The whole era of the 70's 80's and 90's was just magical in so many ways. I thank my lucky stars that I grew up during this time because it was so very special.

I'm a product of the 80's, the best decade EVER. Thank God I have a treasure chest of these riches📸

    All the mods and polosites at my high school in Pasadena, CA turned me on to this dude when he was with The Jam in the late '70's. Those British blokes had a sense of Soul, R&B. Blues, Rock Steady and Ska that many places in America were late to the game. I miss his artistry.

    This one always brings to mind my late Grandmother who, though born in 1905, had very a progressive taste in the music of the era. I remember visiting her in my lunch break, when I was an apprentice barber, when this came on the radio & she promptly asked me to 'turn it up Graham', & we both sung it through together. She also loved Barry White, Stevie Wonder & Abba when they came on the scene !!! Great memories, & proof that any specific piece of music can trigger a memory ~ This one being almost fifty years ago !

    I must confess to being a late arrival to The Style Council sound on just discovering this gem in Jan 2016.
    Funny thing though, I have been an unknowing Paul Weller fan from way back in 1982 when I was living in Trinidad and first heard The Jam with "That's Entertainment". Loved that tune and played it endlessly.
    Fast forward to 2016 and I was doing a google search for the genre that Swing Out Sister played and discovered the term "Sophisti-Pop" that was also played by bands like the The Style Council.
    I almost pasted up on checking the link but took the time to see what the Council was about and then found "You're The Best Thing"..... been playing it for the past two days - love it!
    Coming full circle 34 years later... Paul Weller of the Jam has another hit with me. Great stuff.
