From 77 In the city and 40 years later writes this beautiful song loved every bit of the journey,the guys just fantastic and a British work of art. See you in Brighton Paul
Just magnificent. A song that people like Noel G could only ever dream of writing. In one of the Weller biogs, it mentions Paul walking down the street and a guy stopping in his tracks after spotting him and shouting "F***g Hell ... it's the KING OF ENGLAND". Man, that guy was spot on. SPOT on.
Long Long Road Paul Weller In the times too far to view In the places I once knew And every footstep that I've taken Was just one step I took to you In the strangers passing by To the castles in my eyes And in the busy streets and markets Where I look baby, I look for you Oh And I know it's a long long road That we walk together but as one There's no longer two Oh, me and you When the road gets rough We gotta pull together Ooh When the time no longer sides There'll be choices I won't decide And when that times comes I'll go through it With what I've learnt baby From loving you Oh, ooh There's so many roads that you can go down So many lonely lives that can be found Many lead nowhere And I had my share And a lonely life just ain't that good Yes I know (yes I know, yes I know It's a long long road That we walk together But as one) Yes I know (yes I know, yes I know) It's a long long road (it's a long long road) That we walk together (that we walk together) But as one (but as one) Never alone, two (yes I know, yes I know) Oh, me and you (it's a long, long road) When the road is long (take a walk together) Gotta move together Yes I know (yes I know, yes I know) It's a long long road Oh (that we walk together) Gotta move together. ooh Yes I know (yes I know, yes I know) It's a long long road (it's a long long road)
What a beautiful song, really showcases Paul's voice. I think his vocals have diminished somewhat due to the ciggies over the years but this really is a return to form. Hats off to him and the band.
The real Mr Weller is a lot of different people. The one thing you can say about him is he is always the real Paul Weller... just wearing one of his different hats. As to self indulgence, have you heard Shopping by the Jam or Confessions of a Pop Group by TSC? Just other hats... Peace
Listen the guys a legend. Not a legend that is so freely put around nowadays but a real fucking legend. Story book of my life listening to Weller
beautiful song..from Britains best song writer.
Mark Lovett He is the best songwriter in UK beside of Paddy McAloon ( Prefab Sprout )and Neil Hannon ( Divine Comedy ).
This song is a beauty.
Mark Lovett no one of them British music has spoiled us since day 1

Fantastic tune.. and the album is the best thing hes done since heavy soul...
When Paul Weller is on form he's great. He's obviously on tremendous form right now because this song is phenomenal even by his own high standards.
for me, this is without doubt , the best song of 2017,it is song writing without equal, superb.....
love this song so much one of the best ever
Sounds like a song Curtis Mayfield would be proud of. I love this record one of Weller's best.
That lady on the left of the violin section has a lovely smile :) Beautiful. Love this from the mod father. Perfect
Beautiful...beautiful...beautiful👏👏👏
Thank you Mr. Weller for this song of deep true meanings♥️
Simply Majestic!!
Thanks BBC for uploading.
Great tune.
this is just beautiful
Toda vez que escuto essa canção parece que é a primeira vez de tão linda. ♥️
The return of THE MODFATHER...outstanding .!
Such a good song and good vocal.
Beautiful words . in the busy streets and markets sort of Ronnie Lane ? Great song .
This is a kind of Lennon ballad. Love it.
Allan Azulbotón b
yup, Some of Wellers more ballad type stuff definitely has a lennon feel from the solo years
Long Long Road
Paul Weller
In the times too far to view
In the places I once knew
And every footstep that I've taken
Was just one step I took to you
In the strangers passing by
To the castles in my eyes
And in the busy streets and markets
Where I look baby, I look for you
Oh
And I know it's a long long road
That we walk together but as one
There's no longer two
Oh, me and you
When the road gets rough
We gotta pull together
Ooh
When the time no longer sides
There'll be choices I won't decide
And when that times comes
I'll go through it
With what I've learnt baby
From loving you
Oh, ooh
There's so many roads that you can go down
So many lonely lives that can be found
Many lead nowhere
And I had my share
And a lonely life just ain't that good
Yes I know (yes I know, yes I know
It's a long long road
That we walk together
But as one)
Yes I know (yes I know, yes I know)
It's a long long road (it's a long long road)
That we walk together (that we walk together)
But as one (but as one)
Never alone, two (yes I know, yes I know)
Oh, me and you (it's a long, long road)
When the road is long (take a walk together)
Gotta move together
Yes I know (yes I know, yes I know)
It's a long long road
Oh (that we walk together)
Gotta move together. ooh
Yes I know (yes I know, yes I know)
It's a long long road (it's a long long road)
Lovely record. strong anthem.
Beautiful song by Britain's greatest songwriter, shame his voice has no range anymore
Bristol today, looking forward to a great gig.
Up to his old magic again
What a beautiful song, really showcases Paul's voice. I think his vocals have diminished somewhat due to the ciggies over the years but this really is a return to form. Hats off to him and the band.
❤️❤️❤️❤️

a lot of people getting on the bandwagon here. people who haven't got a clue about paul weller's work. try following for 40 years then comment!!!!
On the flip side on the coin it's surely a good thing that he is gaining a bigger fanbase at this stage in his career?
Music Master what like me don't matter if they have just discovered him they sit back and listen
Music Master bet you never had a wild cat 200!!!
Paul Weller is like 60 years old version of Damon Albarn
Quite apt.
Let it be.....
Gorgeous lady on the left .
I hear Marvin Gaye & John Lennon vibes in this song..beautiful stuff ✌🏾
Woof Dog Marvin Gaye specially
for my x wife.
it's a long long road baby !
I will be there at the end .
David hughes sweet
Love this song
Sounds like Southside Johnny . Modfather just gets better ,.The real deal.
Big girl on the fiddle is a happy soul..
Who wouldnt be happy playing this wonderful song?
ray davies and damon albarn are britains best ever song writers
.. after Weller.
Tortoise
Weller is well better
Self indulgent!!! Would the real Paul Weller please stand up!!
The real Mr Weller is a lot of different people. The one thing you can say about him is he is always the real Paul Weller... just wearing one of his different hats. As to self indulgence, have you heard Shopping by the Jam or Confessions of a Pop Group by TSC? Just other hats... Peace
rory toomey well said...!!!
Indeed, he’s the changingman! 😉
This geeza reckons he's Robie Williams (the true modfather)
Trying to be funny? It's Robbie by the way.
