P. Weller’s poetry has always been a precious example of an outstanding gift. Deeply rooted in universal ideas and emotions. Resulted in masterpieces from the very beginning. This is just the one I love the best. So powerful and humane!
Yolanda Charles on bass, Steve White on drums, Steve Craddock on guitar... Such a big part of Weller's sound and his ability to achieve his songs the way he heard them in his mind. Also, Yolanda always plays with such a great, relaxed yet compelling groove, so Weller could do his soulful thing with ease. And this is such a great tune!
My husband's funeral song as he entered the crematorium Only 54 when he died but loved Weller & it was no surprise to me he chose it. The lyrics say it all
Mr Weller is a fantastic lyricists...one of the best Briitsh singer, songwriters that has come out of the UK. ever....Never heard this one before....wow!!!!!
So sad mate, wish you the best. This will be my song at my funeral, spare a thought for your wife everytime I hear this song, even though I don't know you. Great tune
Autumn blew its leaves at me Threatening winter as I walked Summer always goes so quick Barely stopping like my thoughts Which dip and spin and change so fast I have to wonder, will I last Through the windows of the train I caught reflections of a paper cup Hanging small in a pale blue sky Never knowing which way's up Above the clouds, what's to be found I have to wonder, will I be around As my anger shouts at my own self doubt So a sadness creeps into my dreams When you're scared of living but afraid to die I get scared of giving and I must find the faith to beat it Yeah, yeah yeah Must be me that's rushing by Time just lingers on the wind Bristlin' through my open fears I wonder what it's going to bring Above the clouds, what's to be found I have to wonder, will I be around Run and hide, run and hide I catch the sail at evening tide Run and hide, run and hide I catch the sail at evening tide Run and hide, run and hide I catch the sail at evening tide
Autumn blew it’s leaves at me Threatening Winter as I walked Summer always goes so quick Barely stopping like my thoughts Absolutely blows me away that. One of my favourite opening lyrics to any song EVER
I think this is his greatest song , it’s perfect in every sense of the word … I love PW and everything he stands for , everything comes from deep within his soul, oozing with pure passion and style Just brilliance 👌🏽❤️
amazing .......Autumn blew its leaves at me, Threatening winter as I walked. Summer always goes so quick, Barely stopping like my thoughts. Which dip and spin and change so fast I have to wonder - Will I last. Through the windows of the train, I caught reflections of a paper cup, Hanging small in a pale blue sky, Never knowing which way's up. Above the clouds, what's to be found, I have to wonder - Will I be around. As my anger shouts - At my own self doubt, So a sadness creeps - Into my dreams When you're scared of living - But afraid to die I get scared of giving - And I must find the faith to beat it I must be me that's rushing by,
Beautiful lyrics.....trying not to cry as I listen to this, my daughter in hospital being treated for leukemia 2nd time around, her 3 kids can't visit 'cos of Covid.....thank Heavens for Whatsapp.
@benfinesilver2250 Thank you. Honestly, I am getting anxious as I try to plan a memorial...2nd year coming up. She would have been 32 on 16 December, died 2 days later on 18th....It still hurts as if it was yesterday... Hugs
@@Cloverose137 I’m very sorry. I hope I didn’t upset you by reminding you. I honestly feel your pain. Life needs to be lived by trying your best to fulfill dreams. This is how you can honor loved ones that died. xxxxx
@benfinesilver2250 No, you didn't upset me. It's always gonna be a touchy time for me. If I ever get to see Paul perform this live. I'll probably cry my eyes out. Hope ge makes to Canada again. Would love to see him in England. Should have moved back years ago, 'cos at least would be around family. Just me and my daughter's 3 girls.
Back in the day when artists played instruments wrote their own songs had lyrics that you could hear understand and sing along to, where artists kept their clothes on and didn’t need dancers fireworks or any other manufactured bs like these days on stage or in their videos because their talent was more then enough to entertain.
Yeah, you can’t deny this is one of the best versions of this amazing song. It’s probably got a different meaning for everyone. I simply love his vocals and the whole bands passion here. I wish he would re-record it this way. 80’s mod father of rock. Takes me back.
@@corneliustalmage8303 Like he always does. Saw him in Toronto and he goes Oh fuck I 've forgot the lyrics....to ever changing mood.....we helped him along....love this guy
I so.. Love this man, I don't think there has ever been a song he's ever written or covered that I didn't like. Loved him from the Jam, Style Council to himself. He's untouchable.
That Live Wood tour was special. Wolverhampton Civic Hall, 1994. Unforgettable. A very special time; so glad they chose to film this gig. They didn’t include the encore with Simon Fowler performing Etta James’ “Take another little piece of my heart,” but it went on to become the Live Wood VHS, and we’ll never forget that treat. Thank you for the upload.
The Bacon Brothers did a very nice version of this song with Daryl Hall on Live at Daryl's House web page, but nothing beats the original. Paul's voice is pure heaven.
My god this is so good. Being from the states I didn't know much about him and started learning all about his huge career with the Style Council and the Jam. I had only heard this song prior to that. Way WAY UNDERRATED ! Just beautiful.
Paul is the best, nothing more nothing less ! I hope he'll come back one next day in south west of France as he used to do some years ago... This guy is unforgetable. Chapeau bas et merci beaucoup ! This song is my Paul's ever favourite !
Treated my daughter and myself to two tickets for his Jun23 in Telford, i soo hope he plays this track, i've lost count of how many times i've watched this clip, absolutely enchanting song.
I luv Weller, my gran was from woking so spent much time there as a kid & I feel the essence of the place in his music, luv that he wrote this on a train returning from Selsey - also from my family tree early 1800s an ancestor married one of the Weller clan who left UK as settlers who claimed homeland & helped build a township in remote, undeveloped Canada
That opening E major 7 to A major 7 …..magical stuff …..God how I love this man’s music ….been a fan forever ….met him once coming out the black barn….I was star struck he was a perfect gentleman….big shout out also to the rest of the band especially the amazing Steve Craddock ( another of my guitar hero’s)

Paul Weller in the early 90s- fucking untouchable. First three solo albums are pure gold.
Soul ! so much soul
Well said 👍👍👍
Yes❗️I like this era.
Chav-soul
Yep. No doubt.

Craddock's guitar makes this I think
Well said and rightly so.
Agree......
Well said
I’ve just sent this to my Boyfriend of 8 months

Wayne Blanchard She's a fantastic player. Would love to work with her. One of the best bass players around.
I saw The Jam twice, The Style Council once, and this band line-up twice - all three of those combos are the best he's ever been live. Absolute magic
Oooh yes. I do agree to you completely.

My husband's funeral song as he entered the crematorium
Only 54 when he died but loved Weller & it was no surprise to me he chose it.
The lyrics say it all
I m sorry for your loss Karen. Such a beautiful song the lyrics say it all x
I got emotional reading that. I'm sorry for your loss. Beautiful choice anyway. Regards from Catalonia.
Love to you
So sorry for your loss... good choice ....
❤️
One of the greatest songs of all times...
Magical poetry.
Don’t u prefer the acoustic version
Yes, but you can bet your life Paul doesn't think so. That alone, speaks volumes for the quality of his work...👍
Definitely ❤
@@contourbody He's humble like that, mind you he played it live when I saw him a couple weeks ago so he must still hold it in high regard at least
Mr Weller is a fantastic lyricists...one of the best Briitsh singer, songwriters that has come out of the UK. ever....Never heard this one before....wow!!!!!
My darling heart wife passed away on Sunday this song will be playing at the funeral thank you Paul ❤
I'm so sorry to hear. Its a lovely song 😪
So sorry for your loss my friend.
Sorry for your loss.
Recently lost both my parents, when my dear mum passed i put this on for some reason at 3am! Am I an idiot, probably, always love them
So sad mate, wish you the best.
This will be my song at my funeral, spare a thought for your wife everytime I hear this song, even though I don't know you.
Great tune
This's why I love Paul Weller pure emotion and heart on sleeve at all times nobody else like him ever.
ever !!
I think Paul Weller was a Steve Marriott fan.... talk about passion 😉
@@PigletVanGogh I think he just might have been !
Autumn blew its leaves at me
Threatening winter as I walked
Summer always goes so quick
Barely stopping like my thoughts
Which dip and spin and change so fast
I have to wonder, will I last
Through the windows of the train
I caught reflections of a paper cup
Hanging small in a pale blue sky
Never knowing which way's up
Above the clouds, what's to be found
I have to wonder, will I be around
As my anger shouts at my own self doubt
So a sadness creeps into my dreams
When you're scared of living but afraid to die
I get scared of giving and I must find the faith to beat it
Yeah, yeah yeah
Must be me that's rushing by
Time just lingers on the wind
Bristlin' through my open fears
I wonder what it's going to bring
Above the clouds, what's to be found
I have to wonder, will I be around
Run and hide, run and hide
I catch the sail at evening tide
Run and hide, run and hide
I catch the sail at evening tide
Run and hide, run and hide
I catch the sail at evening tide
Thanks!
@@angelarezende124 you’re welcome! Happy New Year🎉 ✌️ & ❤

I saw this at barralands Glasgow last night (2024) not lost a beat man.
My favourite artist ever!!

Spot on pal,i totally agree!👏
I can listen to this both while I'm drinking and while I'm hung over, rare quality, that.
One of the best ever written songs in decades of making music...timeless great...in my opinion...thanks Paul!!!and marvelous Band!!!

In my eyes the man can do no wrong.... but the look on his face when he sings the wrong words - priceless!
StWadge I love the smirk. He did that when I saw him two weeks ago, too.
Help me out, cause the only one who is talkin the wrong words imo is you.
he did wrong splitting the Jam thinking he was a soul boy only wrote a few good songs after this one included
@@joeblack5661 he originally sang "will I last?"
He's done it a few times.
Always makes me smile.
a remarkable account of dealing with depression, "when you're scared of living but afraid to die" thank you, Paul

Must become a Knight of the Realm for his contribution to Music. LEGEND!!!
He turned down OBE

This shows he's not just great song writer and singer but also superb guitarist with these jazzy licks. Nice interplay with steve craddock.
So underrated as a guitarist imho.
First solo album was perfect. Paul Weller Movement, Town and Country club, Kentish Town 1992.
This sums Paul Weller up perfectly.
... for me his greatest tune...honest and humble xx
Agree. He even sounds like Marvin Gaye at times.
Thank you Paul this is the song I also will be playing at my funeral love to you all the band ❤🎉 my ever change in moods ❤
I cannot get enough of his soulful strings vibrates through mine .This guy is unstoppable.
0:53 - Wouldn't you smile to yourself too if you'd written a song like this? One of his best tracks (Jam & TSC stuff
included)
He got the lyric wrong and laughed to himself
@@corneliustalmage8303 Like he always does. Saw him in Toronto and he goes Oh fuck I 've forgot the lyrics....to ever changing mood.....we helped him along....love this guy
Her on bass is cool asf, Yolande u legend!

My best live band in a very long time. Certainly his best drummer ever,
Still sounds fresh today in 2021- what a version
and still in 2023
Pure class 2024 hope to see him at yhe barrowlands
The Bacon Brothers did a very nice version of this song with Daryl Hall on Live at Daryl's House web page, but nothing beats the original. Paul's voice is pure heaven.
Also a very nice version of this song from the Bacon Brothers, thanks to Daryl Hall ...
I've heard the Bacon Bro's version as well and it is excellent. BTW how good is Daryl Hall? What a legend!
Sound advice to all men , infact music has covered everything in life great song gread singer great backing Brilliant
I still think this is one of Paul's best solo songs.
Can't believe this song's 30 years old......wow time really does fly.
Paul Weller un gran hombre, un gran cantante y un gran compositor 👋👋👋
Weller at his best, legend of the decades👏👏
Love this song, best from paul weller imho
Thanks Jeff, for all the beautiful songs you've given us over the years.
He’s so cute and an amazing artist
I used to take long walks with this song on repeat 💜
今のライヴでもこういう昔の隠れた？名曲をどんどんやってほしいなぁ・・・
哀愁があって、本当に好きな曲。スティーブホワイトのドラムもいいよね。
Will never tire of listening to this.
Found my grandads old funeral paper from nearly 15 years ago and this was the first song played got to say he’s got good taste
still amazing - great song, great musicians and straight from the heart
First solo albums pure gold. Went downhill from there IMO, but those albums are some of the greatest contemproary music of the last 50 years.
Classic Weller.
Sure feel this. He has an awesome voice and what an experience to hear this majestic…..
Incredible performance!
In my top three Weller songs for sure. Pure magic. And Weller live is untouchable.
1:33 - 1:58 = goosebumps. One of the greatest songwriters ever.
Song sums up the way I feel when I’m desperate to know what the future holds for me, particularly when I’m down. What an incredible musician.
PAUL AT HIS BEST GREAT GREAT SOUL IN PERFECTION
Fantastico bravissimo❤
Absolutely best version , brilliant!
Paul Weller, for sheer variety in music. what a a singer.
I think it's his best )))
the best version easily..studio or live..this version nails it..so soulful..takes you to wherever you wanna go..genuis Paul!!🎶🎶🎶
how is this not Marvin Gaye? GENIUS!!!! what a song
This song tells of lost love so so hauntingly well, so bittersweet ❤️ . What a genuis Paddy is.
his soul shines bright thru this song
just beautiful both lyrics and melody
One of my favourite Weller songs….if not the favourite
My god this is so good. Being from the states I didn't know much about him and started learning all about his huge career with the Style Council and the Jam. I had only heard this song prior to that. Way WAY UNDERRATED !
Just beautiful.
Love how it goes to a black-white vision fits this most beautiful song well...as if in the cloud and then above it! Pure transcenDANCE!
i'm gutted we're all getting old the next generation won't have this class
😭😭😭 😂 Totally
You're so right been a fan for 42 years now I count myself very lucky to have been around seen him live 25 times both in the jam and solo.
Quality stuff here..the voice..the words..the music.
Always makes me cry so beautiful ........... Paul you are a genius
What would we do without Paul Weller? The man is a genius.
Stupendo bravissimo❤
Paul Weller creates such beautiful music that it transports you ❤
Mr. Weller...you are the best!!!
Love when he get's the words crossed end of first verse and cracks up. Worth the watch!
I Don't know why but every song since The Jam today I can just say that he's one of the greatest ever!
che dire..pochi accordi..un testo poetico...ed ecco il capolavoro
Paul is the best, nothing more nothing less !
I hope he'll come back one next day in south west of France as he used to do some years ago...
This guy is unforgetable. Chapeau bas et merci beaucoup ! This song is my Paul's ever favourite !
Still listening may 2021
I agree...I never tire of that version (and the lovely version of English Rose that preceeds it).
Treated my daughter and myself to two tickets for his Jun23 in Telford, i soo hope he plays this track, i've lost count of how many times i've watched this clip, absolutely enchanting song.
14 years late, but did he? :) It's perhaps my favourite song.
First time listening to this song, but it won't be the last fantastic !
going to see Paul Weller this October . Boston , Mass
perfect song i love paul and his drummer from the style council some years lol
good god man !! This is next level craftsmanship on every front, every level. Astounding, awesome, SUBLIME.

My favourite Weller tune. Play it on the ipod every time I fly. Thanks for posting.
My teacher showed this to me today......boy am I glad he did.
One of his best songs and lyrics
If i could only hear one song for the rest of my life i would choose this one. LOVE IT.
C'Est ci Bon, rather wonderful... I love Mr PW at his best, with an excellent band, playing tight licks as usual...Rather superb, very moving too.
This song is perfection
