    It truly was a long hot Summer in ‘83 and such a memorable time of my life. Falling deeply in love with my first ever girlfriend (Clare) and I still hold those happy memories in my heart till this day. My first job, earning money and the whole world was your oyster. The ones that you love were still alive and healthy. 40 years later since the release of this song and it still affects me today the same way that it did then. It takes a genius to compose such a powerful and beautiful song that transports you straight to a happier point in place and time.

    I play out my role
    Why I've even been out walking
    They tell me that it helps
    But I know when I'm beaten
    All those lonely films
    And all those lonely parties
    But now the feeling is off-screen
    An' the tears for real not acted, anymore
    I'm all mixed up inside
    I want to run but I can't hide
    And however much we try
    We can't escape the truth and the fact is
    Don't matter what I do
    It don't matter what I do
    Don't matter what I do
    Don't matter what I do
    Don't matter what I do
    'Cause I end up hurting you
    One more covered sigh
    And one more glance you know means goodbye
    Can't you see that's why
    We're dashing ourselves against the rocks of a lifetime
    What once was pleasure now's pain for us all
    (In my heart only shadows fall)
    I once stood proud now I feel so small
    (I don't know whether to laugh or cry)
    The long hot summer just passed me by

Shout to the top by Style Council, the 1st Lloyd Cole album, The Cure in between days, Tears For Fears, Howard Jones, Culture Club, FGTH... You Brits definitely ruled in those years. And all the radio stations here in the West of the Continent played it all.

I shared music with my siblings so I had Punk, New Wave, New Romantics, Techno, Disco, Reggae, Mods, Metal all mixed in with R&B, Motown, Jazz, Jazz Funk, Jazz Fusion, Soft Rock and may more, so I appreciated it all and went to see tons of live bands as was lucky enough to live 25 minutes from central London so would hop on the tube and be at some of the best live gigs in town!

      Totally agreed. I think the backlash was symptomatic of the snobbish attitude the predominantly white musical press had towards soul and pop music at the time (i.e. basically anything that wasn't a rock song played by a bunch of white guys on guitar). But like you say, this song and the band are class.

      That's because The Jam had a fan base of teenage boys. Of course they weren't happy Paul decided The Jam were in a artistic dead end and split the band. The more open minded embraced The Style Council. The last few singles by The Jam were not too different to the first few singles by Paul's new group.

      My guess is that the video came on the internet during the whole justin bieber craze considering it's about 11 years old it wouldn't be too far fetched if it was a bunch of JB or black eyed peas fangirls but that is just speculation really
      Also i love Paul's hair in the video

    Here are your beautiful lyrics:
    I play out my role
    Why I've even been out walking
    They tell me that it helps
    But I know when I'm beaten
    All those lonely films
    And all those lonely parties
    But now the feeling is off-screen
    An' the tears for real not acted, anymore
    I'm all mixed up inside
    I want to run but I can't hide
    And however much we try
    We can't escape the truth and the fact is
    Don't matter what I do
    It don't matter what I do
    Don't matter what I do
    Don't matter what I do
    Don't matter what I do
    'Cause I end up hurting you
    One more covered sigh
    And one more glance you know means goodbye
    Can't you see that's why
    We're dashing ourselves against the rocks of a lifetime
    Don't matter what I do
    It don't matter what I do
    Don't matter what I do
    Don't matter what I do
    Don't matter what I do
    'Cause I end up hurting you
    (In my mind different voices call)
    What once was pleasure now's pain for us all
    (In my heart only shadows fall)
    I once stood proud now I feel so small
    (I don't know whether to laugh or cry)
    The long hot summer just passed me by
    Don't matter what I do
    It don't matter what I do
    Don't matter what I do
    Don't matter what I do
    Don't matter what I do
    'Cause I end up hurting you

    Love this tune & video. I was only 3 in 1983 & have to admit that it wasn’t until 2003 when I watched the video & in doing so discovered The Style Council thanks I seem to remember to an ‘I love 1983’ programme. Paul Weller for me up to this point was all about the solo stuff in the 90s (I knew a little about The Jam). Pivotal moment in my musical education.

    • @yfmt
      @yfmt 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I was really lucky, I was born in 1990 and my mum was a massive Paul Weller fan, so she'd play the Jam, Style Council and his solo stuff. Great to read your new love!
