Paul Weller: Into Tomorrow (Documentary)

- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- First broadcast in 2006, 'Into Tomorrow' looks at the 30-year career of Paul Weller, who tells his own story with the input of those who know him.
Using unseen photos and archive footage, it covers his upbringing in Woking, his years with The Jam and The Style Council, his insecurity after being dropped by a record company and his return to popularity in the 1990s.
Everyone shouting for The Jam on here should remember that they are only so good in the memory because Weller stopped them at their peak. A great band but they would have become shit if Weller had toured those records for 30 years. Since then he has proven himself to be one of the greatest songwriters and singers this country ever produced!
Exactly, From the Jam is poor parody of the Jam . Always leave them wanting more is the reason The Jam will live forever with their quality back catalog.
I agree. As for them reforming (surely the passage of time has ensured there's no way it'll happen - if indeed there ever WAS a possibility), there can't be many bands that have got back together years after the split and still managed to create that spark. Better to be glad you were there to see them in their heyday than to be sorry it's gone.
Nicely done. Always admired the man. He led me through my stormy teens and out into the world. A good, solid, fellow. Thanks, Paul.
john bowes Yes .When I was a homeless teenager (14-17) it was good to have folks like him around. Same with certain books. Now I'm able to lead myself fairly well.
I won't stoop as low as you have and be unnecessarily offensive in return. After all, what kind of person needs to take a positive comment and find something in it with which to attack another individual?

I love Paul, and his ventures into other music, but I will always feel for Bruce, and Buckler...Two very talented blokes as well....Break ups are sad....
I love hearing Paul talk. He's the real thing. There's no boundaries with this man. He has a real mystical quality to his tone, otherworldly but definitely grounded...a true artist. He's the Mod William Blake.
Ok....im 40 , drummer, scratch dj , collecter of records n stuff, I listen to loads of music, I always start with weller. His first 5 albums were awesome .. toy was pretty cool( single)
THE PEBBLE AND THE BOY really bleak and haunting.. hes stood the test of time .. nobody can touch him!!!!!!!.
I wish there were more managers/fathers in this world like John Weller
For every stage,emotion,of my life The Jam,The Style council,Weller,his made a record for me to scream too,i worship paul wellerxxxxxxxxx
What an incredible talent Weller is,at every stage of his career.I think he is courageous,humorous and is not afraid to re-invent himself.One of the best songwriters of our time, his songs are timeless.He has style and attitude.Fascinated by this documentary.He is a true working class hero and an inspiration to everyone of my generation.What a soul and spirit! He encapsulates the times he was writing about..Thanks for making this video!
Weller , what a talent....can't help feeling that Paul, Rick and Bruce were born to play together....Don't think Paul's ever hit that high together with anyone else playing live !....Very creative guy though !....Oh and Paul it only matters what your friends and family think of you...they're the ones that matter when you're talking about love !
Paul and his bands were never huge here in the States. Totally underappreciated. I'm so glad someone introduced them to me in the early 80s. I haven't even heard him from the 90s on. I'm so excited to discover!
Allan Ostermann Go to his RUclips page and you'll see great music vids from the 90s and beyond.

Love the old Paul.....Love the new Paul............but I have a special place for the middle Paul.The Style Council!
My favorite musician of all time. Everything Paul Weller touches turns to beautiful music. I cannot wait to see him again!
My musical life went: John Lennon, Pete Townsend, Paul Weller. Thank you for this fantastic documentary. Amazing. Julie
Thank you so f-ing much for posting this. I've been a Weller fan since the early 80's but I still learned a lot about the man that I hadn't known before. Cheers.
thank you for posting, loved the style council!
Fantastic I seen the Jam I think it was 1982 in Berlin whilst I was in the Army with the old Iron Curtain (Berlin Wall) still up. It was then that I decided I wanted to play the guitar thanks to Mr PW just seen him recently in Carlisle at the Sands wonderful to have such an iconic tallented musician still entertaing. Thank you so very much.
Modernism A new decade turned out to be one of the best albums ive ever heard. Even in 2017 it sounds new and fresh. what were people thinking showing discontent at the Royal Albert Hall in 1989. I would've given my right arm to be at that gig.
First time I've seen this Docu,Great testimonial to One of the Finest this countries ever produced,Mr Weller you are the Man.
Amazing how much he looks like his mum, more so now.
+Madnotmad Spitting image...He had remarkable parents...
At 19:33 Paul's dad says "one or two of the band were taking him for granted, I won't mention any names" ... There was only two of them anyway apart from Paul wasn't there? ... Much respect to that man anyway. What devoted father. Legend.
Excellent doc. loved every minute
Hats off to the one and only Paul Weller, and other member's of the Jam, Bruce, and Rick, and to have a great father and family behind who were always behind him, this is something I personally never had.
58.33 my god this is all of us from 1977 to then all of us feeling,we've got him back,we've stood by him and just look at this fella .The one I saw in Eric's in Liverpool 1978 fuckin still the same .
I love the style council - perfect pop soul music with a heart. Great video - to ton
Brilliant artist. Great song writer, great voice.
All I've learnt from this is that Paul Weller has the same haircut as his mother.
I will always love the Style Council. Thanxs Paul.
thanks very much for uploading, i got a great insight into the man and, being a fan of his music, it helped me decide what i felt of him as a person. i have to say, i admire him much more - that footage of him in 91 playing Town Called Malice to two men and a dog, with his baggy-grunge outfit on - to pull himself from there back to the top, i salute him.
but i like him a lot less than i did. a lot to admire, very little to like. he's charmless, unbelievably serious and very precious and self-absorbed. i couldn't warm to him at all.
we heard about the great sense of humour he has, but the couple of examples he just came across as a tosser. he gave no credit to Dee C. Lee for more or less keeping him sane for 3 or 4 years, while he moaned about being yesterdays man, and couldn't show any enthusiasm for his period as a family man, he obviously hated it. he had virtually nothing to say about their break up. just me me me. but as an artist i admire him.
I get what you're saying but, this documentary is more about his music career than his personal life. And, to be fair, he did acknowledge that his behaviour, which led to the split with Dee, was inexcusable.
Great songs,musician and vocalist.
Well said pcooper - Weller mentions us on that right to work march13 minutes in. Great contemporary writer and songs man. More Power to your writing arm Paul Weller. An ordinary man made good.
I hated the "new" Jam and Style Council at the time since I was a die hard early Jam fan. I later became to appreciate all of it.
You can't take away his brilliant song writing abilities. The next step from Davies, marriott and townsend. A natural progression.
"Paul is a lovely bunch of people" lol
Very good documentary.
Brilliant! Thanks a lot from a Weller fan!
Paul Weller - My Hero Thank you.
What a great video. I enjoyed watching it.
He was the bizzo when I was a teenager, I loved the music he made with The Jam
Have you listened to Foxton's latest solo lp, Back In The Room? If not, definitely recommended. He and Weller sound great together again- I prefer it to Weller's solo output, though Weller's latest is a very good one as well.
A true Jam fan would have known life was gettin older. We were getting older. When bitterest pill came out,I personally thought,"Yeh it's time we grew up,and who better to grow older with than the man himself" we all grew with him at 15 why not die listening to him at 97 So fuck it ,I'm Weller ,I've always been Weller you can Fuckin Bury me Weller. That's on my head stone .
Always loved the guys...but his coolness with me went even higher after hearing this!!!!
very interesting to watch reccomend anyone who enjoy's any part (or all) of pauls music to watch it!!
One of my favorites.
great to see this... he was a big influence on me
yes that was great...love all Weller Music!
TSC were very underrated band because many people were not at the right level to understand the mix of jazz (west coast, bossa nova), soul, dance....and good philosophy about fashion and society.
As you lean into the light ... which is on 'Heavy Soul' by Paul Weller
His solo music is great.
brilliant thanks
Never forget him coming to my little town BRAINTREE...
awesome!
I wonder why he never tried to break in the USA. I think Pauls music would have gone over pretty well over here.
we dug him in SoCal, at least the 'Council...
shame this documentary doesnt retrace the meet up with Steve C tho !!
good upload, ta
One of my fav Weller songs is Walls Come tumbling Down of which I was about 10/11 years old at release, Was into The Jam just after they spit up around 1984 you cant say that TAC songs was 'DISCO'. Alot of Jaz, Soul and French influence at that period of time. Did get a pit more pop though later.
brilliant film
What a talent!
Did not know that- thanks for that info. Yeah, that was silly of them to think he'd sell out and accept a bloody thing like that. Love Weller!
Love this ... yes The Jam were the dogs bollocks ... but Paul weller will always be a legend ....X
No, it's on 'Heavy Soul' It's 'As You Lean Into The Light' as has already been said.
For a start, TSC were not 'disco'. You may not like them, but so what? Weller had the balls to do what he believed in despite potentially losing a massive audience. I wish more musicians were as honest. I don't like Scott Walkers' new material but I LOVE the fact he writes from his heart and not with his wallet in mind.
Paul Weller Isn't Just The Mod-Father, He Is A Game-Changer, So Is Everyone Else That's Been Members Of The Various Bands That's Been Involved Equally. His Labour Party Preferences Have Had An Equal Effect On Me Being A Labour Supporter; I Come From A Family That's Working Class. Life, Being Brought Up Was Fun Though. Love Comes Naturally From The Heart, FIRST. Money Is A Material. Sod The Tory Tossers'. They're Totally Ignorant Of Us Ordinary Working Class People. I Have So Much Admiration For These Great Musicians', The Members Of All The Bands The Mod-Father Has Been In. It's No Tragedy To Be Ordinary Working Class, Inspired By These Great Musicians. I've Been Making My Own Music For A Couple Of Years Now. I've Got A Brain Tumour. It's Made Me Want To Make The Most Of Life. That's Still Humble, Working Class, And Poor By Money Standards, NOT By Creativity With Making My Own Music. This Man Inspires Many People, Equally. Love Your Family, And Friends As People. We Only Have One Life. Music Is Therapeutic. This Man Is A Great , Ordinary, Inspiring Soul. Paul Weller Is The Mod-Father. He Is Also One Of The Very Best Individuals In Music, And Everyone Else Involved Equally, With The Music That Keeps Us Ordinarily Happy...
When i heard Wild Wood for the first time i thought to myself, fuck me this is exactly where i am in my life right now.
Paul Weller God of mod. I mean he went with the times not just the 80s mod movement. Which was awesome 😎

you can always count on Paul Weller to deliver the goods - I would bet my hairdoo on it!
Nice one mate
Dad was great in his role but Mum looks just as tough..Little things.
You can tell DC still really loves him... so sad really, life moves on but she seems to have been caught in the wash.
Jeez, he's the spitting image of his old lady 👍
As he said " the jam was his teenage life , the style council was his twenties ,,,,,,etc etc " Whatever opinion one has, Weller is a prolific song writer and a poet to boot.. much respect to true talent when it comes around..Paul is talent simple as . A man of our times, a banner of our generation
Fucking legend. Long live the king x
Foxton likes his moisturiser!
Thaler you for the subscribeing
move on with the song writing/ singin/music making, all round cool geezer that as stood the test o time like no one else that i can think of..........cheers paul for making me spoilt.. like a fine wine, improve with age..keep the tracks flowing....x
wardy....
after all these years pitty still he left the jam
i respect paul's decision to get out of all the expectations on him. but when i think about him, he has the gift of creating musical/lyrical atom bombs. i'd love to see paul actually get back with the jam and record a few albums, go on tour and pick up his rickenbacker again.... and lyrically target bloodsucking corporations and effects of globalization, oil wars, media disneylands....etc. we need his rebel heart so much.... c'mon paul!
Does anybody know where I could find a HD - 1080p or even 720p - version of this great documentary? Thanks.
Buy the DVD?
I'll look for it. Didn't know it was available.
Thank you.
Mario Salimon yea h n v ya doenut
Does anybody know the song being played in the background at 06:47?
I,ll never forgive Weller for splitting The Jam. He should have at least left the door open but, you ,ve gotta love him
I feel like the only reason someone would ever like the Style Council is because they loved Paul in the Jam. Otherwise, the Style Council would have begun and fans would have thought it was shyte.
Hey, I never said SC was good, esp. that last record. But he did what he wanted to do. What he wanted to do wasn't well received and flopped. Oh well, he dusted himself off, grew up a bit, and moved on. He's not spending his middle years rehashing stuff from 30 years ago and for that I can only applaud him. I don't like all of the stuff he's come out with since the breakup of the Jam, but I respect him enough to give it a listen and say, "nope, not for me," if I think it's crap.
Tai uma cara politizado...cidadão..critico..incentivador..musico que usa a musica como canal de conscientização.. que faz uso da musica não como apenas Business mas sabe ir do Underground ate o mainstream e de la sair limpo... GRANDE INFLUENCIA.. daquele tipo de cara que da vontade de ficar amigo e pagar umas cervejas.
Luved The Jam,really dig some of his solo stuff,but the Style Council...wtf was he thinkin?!
I thought the same, never really took any notice of them at the time. but i listened to a friend's compilation a while ago and love it! try these: spin drifting, man of great promise, picadilly trail
andy james No thank u
G Raw ok
Looks so much like his mother
Paul Weller declined a CBE in a honours list a few years back....not quite a knightehood bur still knocked the award back!!!
I wish I had a Dad like Paul's. My dad would tell me to cut my hair and get a job.
The band were taking him for granted, I won't mention any names but 1 OR 2 or the band were taking him for granted........hmmmmmm I wonder who he is talking about LMAO
The Style Council was fucking hateful! Absolutely exemplified by a track like "Long Hot Summer" which is still nauseating now. Fair play to the man though, as he says himself on this film, he *wanted* to rub some people up the wrong way and he succeeded. Whatever your own personal taste, you have to respect anyone who's focused and single minded enough to pursue their own dreams and fuck anyone that doesn't like it, so hats off to the man when all's said and done.
GOOD
"i wont mention any names, but one or two of the members where taking advantage of him" but....there's only 2 people other than paul
You're welcome.
Put your hands together for the best band in the fuckin' world... The Jam. Brilliant :)
you're welcome :)
well said Welsh brother =:D
Anyone know the song at 40:48?
So what was the point of punk rock in 76? Why didn't Weller just start a disco band and see if he got anywhere or even a record deal?
John Weller 19:37 "The band were taking him (Paul) for granted, mention no names one or two members" Well that don't leave a lot to the imagination, there was only fucking three of them and I doubt PW was taking advantage of himself..
Point taken.
I was 3...
