In these strange uncertain confusing times this song offers hope, faith and a soulful solace...Each time I listen to it I am healed and enhanced by its beauty...Thank you Stone Foundation and Paul Weller for sharing your music with the World ✊🏾
grown up with this man --- and seen him grow and mature ---- the way he sings the chorus 'off beat' is just beautiful ... bought all sound foundation albums on back of this ---- music is so important and it's eternal and affects us all - beautiful !
I love watching the magic happen , I glad he gave us the opportunity to sit in on this session . Watching a studio session is to me better than a concert for this is where they need to be perfect . watching them interact with each other and the timing is priceless
ALL the planets and stars must have been aligned when these Gentlemen entered the studio and decided to collaborate on this song in particular. I may as well turn off my amp, deck and other audio components and hang up my headphones because If this is not perfection then it's as close to it as I am likely, ever, to hear. No more chasing that elusive, musical Holy Grail because here it is. Listen at your own risk: THIS Sound affects!
Wowsas! Well...who knew ay...love this tuuuune! Just checking out da tracks on da album, nuff top top tuuuunes on it. Bless up. Musta been FUN recording it! 🙏🏾🎶😎👍🏽
Saw the man in the AB in Brussels last time he was there. Magnificent Weller, always loved him, when I was younger in the eighties, with The Style Council especially, but what a marvelous career afterwards. As a composer a genius, marvelous voice ! Mod father!
What a beautiful,stunning tune, so uplifting.The effect this tune has on me is brilliant,calm,healing and improves my mood in a instant.. Thank you for such class.
Moved by an action that changes the pattern of things Simple reactions that pass people by on the wind Make your words go on forever Let your kindness show no measure Keep on breathing your life into evey little thing And your balloon is rising Way up to the clouds This could be the start of something So don't let it down Don't let it down Fooled by an image of mornings that dance into spring Every second is wasted by turning your back on every little thing Make your word count for something Let your kindness show your loving Cause you're breathing new life all into the world And your balloon is rising Way up to the clouds This could really be the start of something So don't let it down Yeah your balloon, oh, is rising Way up to the clouds And this could be the start of something So don't let it down Time moves faster every day Don't be alarmed heaven awaits Your balloon, your balloon is rising Way up to the clouds This could really be the start of something Don't let it down And your balloon is rising Yes your balloon is rising
What a Song! Instantly memorable and sing-able! Mark Baxter was absolutely correct about you!!! Instant Classic sound. Huge kudos to Mr. Weller. He KNOWS good music!!!
Really looking forward to receiving my signed copy of the album. Been a Weller fan forever. Only recently come across Stone Foundation. Can't wait to see them in Coventry in May. It's just amazing how music can lift your spirits and churn real emotion. WHAT A TUNE!!!!
come on, man. Apart from David Bowie, who ia the other Guy that is able to chage ALL aspects of his music from one album for the next. And Weller os always making awesome New music, not Just living from his past, just like other awesome bands or artists. don't geral me wrong. I love Macca, Stones, etc. but they Just living these days with the music id their past. Ia te music classic and good? Of course, but they can do better.
Will I ever get fed up with listening to this? I think not ! absolutely superb Mr Weller 😁👍
What a great gift to discover this artist and song on my 58th bday. Life is good.

A nice new one from Stone Foundation feat. Mssr. Paul Weller on vocals - the best song the Style Council never recorded? The Cappuccino Kid redux...
I love watching the magic happen , I glad he gave us the opportunity to sit in on this session . Watching a studio session is to me better than a concert for this is where they need to be perfect . watching them interact with each other and the timing is priceless
Paul once asked the question: "Has my fire really gone out?". Answer: "NO" !!!!!!!
I definitely will!

Moved by an action that changes the pattern of things
Simple reactions that pass people by on the wind
Make your words go on forever
Let your kindness show no measure
Keep on breathing your life into evey little thing
And your balloon is rising
Way up to the clouds
This could be the start of something
So don't let it down
Don't let it down
Fooled by an image of mornings that dance into spring
Every second is wasted by turning your back on every little thing
Make your word count for something
Let your kindness show your loving
Cause you're breathing new life all into the world
And your balloon is rising
Way up to the clouds
This could really be the start of something
So don't let it down
Yeah your balloon, oh, is rising
Way up to the clouds
And this could be the start of something
So don't let it down
Time moves faster every day
Don't be alarmed heaven awaits
Your balloon, your balloon is rising
Way up to the clouds
This could really be the start of something
Don't let it down
And your balloon is rising
Yes your balloon is rising
