The negativity isn’t directed so much to the music rather towards him personally. There is a feeling amongst many the he cynically rode the left-wing sentiments amongst many young people in the UK during the 1980s. That is exploited financially this but turned out to be just as big a Capitalist as those he was supposedly decrying. Added to this are the allegations of seemingly random violent outbursts and rumours of domestic violence directed towards his first wife, Dee C Lee.
Saw The Jam, TSC and him in his early solo days but I just can’t anymore. Dialling in passionless performances to finance his divorces and turning into what he once despised.
If he was doing it for the cash alone he would have reformed The Jam before now. Bruce always wanted it and probably still does, Rick might be a more difficult prospect but that would be where the money is.
@@Me-gy7yk he always said his kids would have to be in the gutter to reform The Jam. I suppose he has it both ways as he is always seen as never having sold out by having the balls to split The Jam at the top and to never having reformed them but then again can still make a pound note by releasing awful dross like 66 and bang out a few Jam and TSC numbers in his live set. Fair play to him I suppose but it’s just not for me.
@@nigeats65 Meant to say liked - he just used the term 'comrades' in his introductions - he was brough up in Surrey for Gods Sake in one of the most poshest parts of the country. He is as working class as our current Prime Minister claims to be - they are all champagne socialists and he is probably the worst one of all in the UK other than Billy - I like in a great big mansion on the South Coast - Bragg. Fake people.
Weller had out grown The Jam and wanted to go in a different direction. You can still still see bits of the band but they are stuck in late 70s and early 80s.
@@TheMusicalElitist How original of you, Madame negative. And let's clarify: I did not make a point, but made a statement. That you blab a lot on this video. An extremely accurate statement, so pipe down, dear.
I liked jam stuff but never listened to his other groups or solo stuff. if he did a jam re union i think it would be sold out but its got to be with all three guys wanting to do it but father times not going to wait for them to put there egos to one side.paul needs to admit he might have been in the wrong at some point in his life and may be see his new mate noel Gallagher and ask him for a bit of advice on how to fix the jams brake up

One of the best songs ever. Paul Weller knew how to write a song for the ages.
Music with a conscience. Love it!

Paul Weller = Top Geezer
Lov it melice!!.. 😎🤩❤️🙏
Thanks for the upload. Great camera work
Love this tune ❤❤❤❤❤
JAM stuff was his best by far
Nah. The Jam were good, but Wildwood and Stanley Road were his peak. He wrote great singles in the Jam, he wrote great albums in the 90s.
What a sad little life you must lead....
Sounds fab to me....many a night on the town for me.. whiskey a gogo..Starwood..civic auditorium..
Miss them far away Dayz
Great show last night!!
evergreen great song
The fire has gone, the skill hasn't. Jam fans understand 👏🍻
The Jam split over 40 years ago. Get over it.
@@TheMusicalElitist Absolutely..

Once you lose the hunger it's worthless, seen better tribute bands do this song justice
Well fuck off and watch a tribute band then. 🖕
Going through the motions.

Great performance. Why all the negativity?

@@derin111 Thanks a really interesting perspective. Whilst I’ve always liked his music I’ve known much about his personality.
Cos people are cretins.
@@derin111 Socialists still need to pay the bills.
hi steve
Not sure why he went he has never been appreciated- icon around the world!

Wait until Oasis reunite. After a few gigs, they’ll be dialling it in.

I thought he was just singing?
Comrades! 😂
This guy is no longer lied that much in the UK
What does that mean...?
@@nigeats65I think he meant to type 'liked'.

Russell Hastings does this song so much better Weller really has lost his fire from the first time I saw him in ‘79😃
Sounded far better with The Jam.
Behave Muppet
The Jam are long time gone my friend. Do you still heat your flat with coal and have your toilet in the garden?
@@ignatiuskhan Newer doesn’t necessarily mean better.
@@peterb6053 Neither does older huh?
@@peterb6053it does
He should of let the jam do one more gig
You should have paid more attention at school.
Why TF the jam broke up il never know. Sorry Paul, this is kinda lame , goin thru the motions

Because he wanted to explore other avenues…
I can’t stand people like you. You’re obviously still stuck in your ways….

Looks like my old granny...
Bloody hell, Jimmy Saville can sing........
Anaheim aka the home of Disneyland. Always knew Weller would do that in the end.
Hes morphed into Iggy Pop.
No shame in that
Comrades!!!🤣🤡🤡🤡
Takes himself far too seriously....one day I hope to have enough money to become a socislist🤣🤣🤣
Do shut up.
Wut.. I thought Jimmy Saville was dead???

The guy who has always hated this country is here now to beg for your dollars.
How did he hate the UK?
Wheres the flag gone comrade?? Upset too many yanks?😢

White.
Can't even sing the chorus
Cut him some slack, it’s like 40 years ago
He was expecting you to do it... but you didn't turn up. Too bad.
Singing and playing is not easy and I suppose the lung capacity diminishes as you get beyond 65
Lol people paid?😂😂😂
Agreed he sounds absolutely 💩🫣

Do shut up
Can't believe in the singer. Morrissey is the only one who can convincingly deliver these lyrics.
Huh? It’s a Paul original…
@@piancunningham I can only assume you are getting yourself in a pickle with That’s Entertainment which Moz did indeed cover…
…woefully.
@@piancunningham if you’d seen this performed live back in 1982 you’d have believed in the singer then my friend.
