Ah je suis tellement d’accord, musicien sublime talentueux , un groupe exceptionnel, mythique, que de bons souvenirs des concerts et les années 80 notamment, j’adore 🥰♥️🙏🙏🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
These white cats are oozing with soul! I knew they were fire but, now, listening to the songs I never heard from them, my goodness, man ...Simply FIREEE!!!
Soul is Universal. That having been said, anything and everything that Paul touches is infused with soul. Even when he is rocking out, you can feel the soul in his guitar playing and in his voice. He is just as important as The Beatles, and his eponymous solo album is a Soul/R and B classic! Someday I will own his total collection of albums from all 3 phases of his career! #WellerRules
Yes, a slight improvement from the terrible and tuneless "Cost of Loving" LP. Critical backlash was deserved so if you ask me. Best thing to happen to Weller was for Polydor to drop him after releasing this dross!
When you transition from counter culture rage to multicultural soul crooning, your bound to have detractors. Personal preferences have no objectivity. Personally, I liked every stage of their progression
How on earth did this manage to escape me all these years? Such an underrated gem, up there with all the massive and already-classic hits. Brilliant vocals that lifted the song to great heights. Beautiful as usual.
Imagine being a Teenager in College - The Jam has just disbanded and there were countless broken hearts. But not mine ... TSC was manna from Heaven ...
@kiloscott Yes, I know. & for the less keen in the audience, I'll repeat myself w/the implication spelled out... "I never understood the term 'Velvet Fog' (esp as it pertains/ed to Mel Torme) until I heard Paul's voice."
I've never understood the straight guy presenting them at the beginning and the easy listening style of Weller that went after in the show. Was it a pisstake? Or a serious TV show? Sorry. I was only 8 years old here but it kind of reminds me of Pebble Mill! I know Weller fans are divided on "Confessions Of A Pop Group" but there is no denying that "It's A Very Deep Sea" and "Changing Of The Guard" (that were on this show) are some of the best stuff he has ever done. Still confused though! hahaha
It's definitely some sort of piss-take, but I'm not sure of the purpose. I'm sure there's some sort of point, but I don't know what it is. Like the magazine ad for "Life in a Top Peoples Health Farm" that ran in the NME - just a medium-close portrait of Paul Weller dressed as Elvis Costello in broken NHS specs and spotted tie - something is being said, but it's hard to tell what. It's like in this whole post-Red Wedge era he was just too angry and depressed and misanthropic to be entirely coherent at times.
Another amazing tune and once again JoJo Ruocco's superb drumming talent shines bright as the stars at night.
The best 80’s band bar none. Paul Weller is a musical genius

All part of Paul’s lifelong LOVE of American R&B/Soul
The perfect song....!!!!!
one of my faves from style council
Love the lady drummer/ Percussionist ms Joanne Ruocco 💕
One of my favourite albums of all time mate!
We.must be bruvvers from another mother 😉
Is it Cafe Bleu album?
@@graemefarquharson465 Confessions of a pop group
Best Style Council Album hands down!
This song is perfection
So fine just like wine aging so well thru the years - love it 4Ever.
I enjoyed playing drums and all Latin percussion on this track , vid recorded at Pinewood Studios 🌼🌸🙌 Joanne Ruocco , Jojo , Little Jo Ruocco ;) 💥🌸
I enjoyed your appearance on the Paul Weller Fan Podcast.
Superb - perfect all the way.
J'adore!
スタカンは前々から知ってたけど、この曲は最近知って凄く好きになった。
style councilは、まだまだ聴いてない曲もあるしドンドンCDを再発して欲しい。そしたら全部買う
nice tune. another underrated Style Council song from around the time the critical backlash against them started
Komo Lee Ray wot backlash? stylagi rips the.........
and 1 more thing. I'm not missing !!!!

Here from the fantastic sky arts documentary on the sky council
How on earth did this manage to escape me all these years? Such an underrated gem, up there with all the massive and already-classic hits. Brilliant vocals that lifted the song to great heights. Beautiful as usual.
It's a classic TSC tune..... disappointing it didn't get more exposure
And a lovely guitar solo too
Nigel if this manages to escape you then I highly recommend you get "Confessions of a Pop Group" from which this song comes, the entire album is a gem

@@leahpriddle4 poopooo
I'm renewing my love affair with Paul Weller ! ! !
me too!
Should never have left ya fella!
Claasic
Paul still rules
The lovely Dc Lee, Paul I've loved you for 43 years,but you fucked up losing her mate needs saying.x
Classic Weller.
They all did so well without Mics 🎤 😜
And Dee's voice on the tract but she's off having a baby 😂
Even better. As Dee is singing, but not on the stage 😂
Mr. Weller supo ver en un milisegundo la estrella que tenía Amy Winehouse en su voz, su persona y su forma de hacer las cosas, cuando aún era élla.
Diu conoces el nombre de la otra chica del coro???
👏👏👍
Think I’m fucking missing something, it’s has something!!!
I never understood the term 'Velvet Fog' until I heard Paul's voice!
@kiloscott Yes, I know.
& for the less keen in the audience, I'll repeat myself w/the implication spelled out... "I never understood the term 'Velvet Fog' (esp as it pertains/ed to Mel Torme) until I heard Paul's voice."
Paul's voice is smooth and soulful❤
wheres dee c lee in this video..... but her voice is lovely in this
She was heavy with Natt Weller at the time. She's only on the album cover by being strategically hidden behind Mick's piano.
OMG this is really the peak of decadence😬
from here on its normal to fall hard

Keith Fordyce was the original presenter on Ready Steady Go so that would tick a lot of credibility boxes for Weller
Modfather !!!!!!! 🙂
Paul really looks like his sister in this,check it out!
Haha... I remember selling progs with Nicki and Vaughan outside the venues when he looked like this.
Was Dee C too "with child" for the vid?
I was wondering the same. I hear her but she is nowhere to be seen.
They needed five girls to lip sync the one amazing Dee C. Lee!
I could never get away with DC Lee even when she was in wham
Right? Got you sister. By the way, why was this album trashed back in the day? Such beautiful music. Anyway, love you.
0:21
:35 :-)
1:07 acknowledging this is ridiculous to lip sync with so many people on stage lol
Many TV studios at that time were not equipped to do anything else.
A good track but it was the begining of the end for this shite line up:-(
wot?
Well tee cee how long did it take the TSC to disband?
Underated LP but crap line up begining of the end for T.S.C:-(
Because he was drowning in klunge.
This is pap.Just awful.No bite , no edge , horrible 80’s garbage.Give me the Jam or solo Weller’s first Lps
With respect, 7 trillion thumbs down to that, jam had 2 decent tunes at best
