Met Weller in New York when this was filmed in 2007 - what a few days. Brilliant set of 3 concerts in 3 days and an acoustic set in Times Square Virgin store - Happy days
One of Wellers last best band set ups, Steve White Drums, Steve Cradock Guitar, a Damon Minchella on Bass, the current line up.... a bunck of hanger ons and chancers, better luck on battle of the bands, they are pulling Weller down the pan.
Yeah but, there are certain songs that he should stay away from singing again like this one because now it's devoid of all the passion, rage, sadness and urgency of his youth. BTW, he doesn't play Going Underground for reasons similar to the ones I stated.
Weller was and is brilliant. Whenever you look at what he’s doing. Of course this isn’t the jam. Time passes for everyone but no punk rocker or anyone from that era wrote as much songs as diverse and as good. No one. Not even Robert smith or David Byrne. Btw, he plays those songs out of respect for his old fan base not for new ones.
That is total shit Weller-Why do you think you are so much better without Rick and Bruce? YOU DEFINITELY AREN'T !! YES YOU MAY HAVE WROTE MOST OF THE SONGS BUT THEIR MUSIC MADE YOU SOUND MUCH BETTER THAT YOU REALLY ARE!!!
Fair play to you Mr Weller, you wrote the soundtrack to my (and many others) youth.

@msangh2003 Steve White is a brilliant drummer.
Sounds good , shame its cut short.
Young Weller used to spit these words out with poisonous contempt - Old Wellers just too comfortable.
Steve we all grow up and out of it eventually.

Happens to us all 😉
100% agree
if a TV show is gonna get someone as great as Paul Weller is, play the whole fucking song you muppets!
oh dear, thankfully cut short.
Fuck what great songs the Jam wrote. They were real!
Pure class
Always the best.
you are the best, Paul!
id die for this man ..weller i fucking adore ya
is that steve cradock
This song should be played d r i v e n!
xfactor playing the jam paul weller has taken the loyalty of the jam fan to the extreme
..and like the perfect Lone Ranger, you run away...
those were the days......when we were thick as thieves

I'm surprised white the drummer didn't break into a jazz infused beat.
I sorry but this has no comparison to jam version
Craddock 's guitar overpowers it. really only need Paul's guitar
Like in The Jam
none of his solo stuff compares to the stuff he produced in this era
Bloodarm. Too slow. No drive
Mess
The British invasion. Steve needs to lose weight and change his hair.
Weller ruining yet another Jam Classic....
Get a decent backing band instead of burnt out gits

why is steve cradock wearing shades to look cool? leave that to the real star steve lol,too slow in pace so it dont catch the jam's drive!!!! shame?
