Wonderful. Just let this wash over me for 5 minutes as I reflected on the 40years of my life that have elapsed since I first heard it. Where did it go?
I'm 29, and never lived in England or through the times Weller shared his social commentary via his music, but the fact that I now have access to 2 great versions of a meaningful song by my favourite songwriter/musician thrills me.
Absolutely fuckin' stunning song. Lyrically, this is one of his best and this orchestral arrangement makes it even better. When I first heard this version a few weeks ago I was reduced to tears, as it reminded me of my own "Private Hell". I'm 53 years old with 2 grown up children and I can so identify with the main character within this song. Bravo Mr Weller.
How did he have so much insight into the stark reality of 'real life' at such a young age ? Love this version and for all viewers watching this in black and white ..'this one is in Technicolor...,
IAN DAINTON Agree with you .. I was at the recent Southbank concert and after walking towards Westminster all his songs came back to remind me of his knowledge of real life .. Inc A Bomb In Wardour Street. Etc. Sadly we are now in a time of pathetic boy & girl bands ..reality TV .. & no idea of how brutal life can be. At his age of writing PRI ate Hell most of his peer group probably had posters of motorbikes and page 3 girls in there bedrooms and living at home with Mum .. Still in puberty and excited by the prospect of going to University.. Whilst Weller gave us compositions which still evoke goose bumps ! Thank you for your comment .. I hope I have not bored you !
@@tinsoldier1983 I think the point being made is that this particular song is written from the point of view of a middle age housewife stuck in a dreary marriage. It isn't a "teen anthem"
i was at the 1st concert at the festival hall in london! this brought tears to my eyes! been a jam fan for going on 37 years, would have never thought weller could sing private hell again after the jam but wow just wow!
Never heard a Jam song I didn't love. B sides were all brilliant too. Even changing the arrangement doesn't destroy this fantastic song. Makes you want to go back in time to live through it all again.
I'm actually really pleased about this one. There's no way you can match The Jam '79 but still ... a beautiful version of a brutal track from a brilliant album 💪🏼
Was just listening to Setting Sons extended edition and heard the original version of this song, with the aid of headphones every lyric spat back at me - where did he actually get the lyrics - he was probably younger than said "Edward" still at college - I love this version, it just blew me away (I doubt if I could POGO round the room anymore !!!!) Then i looked and saw the bold Steve Craddock backing up - As he said himself the Jam is done and dusted and the version of the Private Hell that they sang was raw and angry. Now a more mature Weller twists this song to a more lyrical classic - now its twisted and the lyrics are far more twisted and meaningful - just wonderful that the same song 40 years later can be heard in a different way - two version both brilliant (hasn't escaped me that he is wearing a rugby shirt !!! but that's for another day) - Paul Weller just keep rocking, keep writing, keep singing and for the love of Mike keep touring !
from one Johnny to another ... agree with you. I have uploaded more footage in hd of the Royal Festival Hall and Bham concert should you be interested on my page !
I have uploaded the concert from The Royal Festival Hall in hd including this track should you wish to have a look at some more of this very exclusive and great performance !
Sad how many people on here don't get this as just a different version and want to be 17 again, get over it I was there in the 70s and can still appreciate both versions as just that VERSIONS of a great tune.
Thank you for making this comment ... the negative comments seem to be from people who want to be 17 again but are more likely to be in a world of there own at age 50+. They try (and fail) to be critic"s and probably still have issues of smash hits plastered over the bedroom walls and living with Mummy at home . !
I was lucky to have been in the audience for the 2 concerts at Royal Festival Hall in August and have uploaded some hd footage of it on my page should you "wish" to come true !! hope you will enjoy , but more importantly share the experience. I am more than happy to try and help anyone who may have missed the opportunity to experience the one in a lifetime concert in London.
I bought this over 30 years ago and was blown away - now last night I watched this and was blown away again. Great arrangement and would buy again today. Awesome
absolutely brilliant IMO... the lyrics are more in the foreground and audible compared the original Jam version... how did he have such insight into the lives of middle aged couples at age 20-21? was he watching his own parents relationship? anyway, I love the reinterpretation of that classic song, would love to hear him record a whole album of Jam songs reimagined with a string quartet or orchestra...English Rose, Liza Radley, Tales From The Riverbank, Man In The Corner Shop, Tonight At Noon, Carnation, Set The House Ablaze, etc etc and he could call the album "classical jam" awesome!
Almost word for word identical as my comment a few weeks ago... He seemed to have so much knowledge of real life and the shit which goes with it at such a young age. Tonight at Noon with those two words "Time and Tears" may fav. Nice to read your comment .. would be great if someone could make a movie with all his songs called "from the cradle to the grave " (sound effects album pic."
Daltrey and Townsend still 'BOUNCE' around as does Jagger and they're a lot older than Weller so please stop brown nosing him and talking bollocks. Weller has turned into a very boring old fart and his music is yawwwwwwwwwn these days!!
amazing so haunting he is still the best i have ever heard and i have been to a few from the jam concerts but no one can do his songs like he can Russell Hastings is just a pretend as no one can be Paul
The seventies was a shit decade to grow up in but we had Weller. Thank you Paul and all the other great musicians of the seventies for providing colour in a grey decade.
Liked this version better than the original, I believe this has got more feel than the original one, I mean just listen to the line where he says "you see it SMASH". But, that may also be because I heard this song before heard the original(yes, I had been living under a rock). Anyway, this is one hell of a song and Paul Weller still got that fire in his voice. Marvellous, just Marvellous!
Good observation on the the way he performed this reflective reality of life. I was lucky enough to be at the Festoval Hall gig in London 13th October 2018 & have uploaded it on my channel should you want to experience more of the concert. Nice to see a Singh who likes this .. as a second generation Punjabi there are not many of our type .
@@johnnyuppal7878 Likewise Johnny. I am sure it must be a grand feeling listening to such great orchestra live. I wish to experience the same. And I am a Rajasthani Singh (Rajput), not Punjabi.
@@arvindsinghkaviya3031 Thanks for your comment.. I also prefer the festival hall version. Rajistan ? I kind of know the area as my sisters daughter who is a model and lives in mumbai works a lot in that part of India !

It appears you infer that you are “musically educated” which unless you reveal yourself as an iconic artist/writer etc and justify your comments I will maintain that this is absolutely crap and better left full of energy in the period it was written
I have been listening to music my entire life from artists and singers who would wipe the floor with this pretentious prick. I am very musically educated thank you very much and the learning has taught me that this performance is total shit!
what an amazing songwriter weller is only lennon and mcartney, Ray davis in front of him. loved his music since the jam days style council stuff was great too. guys a legend
Beautiful we all gain weight as we age or get skinny don't matter our hart's is what matters. Thank God my mind an health is great, not bad looking ether for my age, lol some people think differently but I don't care, I love my self and that's all that matters
Joy Tackett It would be nice if more people could think about life like you. There but for the grace of the almighty is in my head when I feel I am having a hard life and I think about others who are inflicted with a whole array of real problems... Self pity..self serving .. Nah ! Not for me !
and the content and how it actually makes you reflect upon the "real world" still there after 30 + years of writing it shows the test of time. At such a young age he had so much insight and I hope that your son has at least listened to it as it will make him one step ahead of what other"s at University "think" they know.
Where once he was pointing the finger at an older woman and her lot from the perspective of a young man now Paul sees it from the perspective of the woman and the man themselves which makes the song both poignant and a little threatening.
Me, singing: Look what he's done to my song ma Look what he's done to my song It's the only thing I could do alright And he turned it upside down ma Look what he's done to my song Sorry, Paul. That's way too much.
Marvellous. Weller's lyrical ability in his solo work has never really been as acute and pointed as it was in his Jam / Style Council work...... possibly because it didn't need to be. Still haunting after all these years, "Private Hell" works brilliantly in this arrangement.
Spot on with your comment .. it is indeed haunting -- a private hell haunting which every single one of us will experience. They say the only thing in life which is a certainty is death , this song reflects some of that journey...
Not Out, intact and polished. Not the velocity, nor venom of the past; but a deeper and more solvent presentation. It (the song...) still has bite, just tempered and gently served for your contemporary audience. He's fought the past for decades, tried to escape his youth, tried to be true to both himself AND his followers. the Jam was long ago friend, we move on...
jkthemod I take part of that but to do an orchestral version of Private Hell is not moving on,; for example I was ok with the philharmonic doing a version of old Elvis tracks, as he is dead and can’t add anything more ;but they did keep the energy of the original song : maybe we will appreciate Paul Weller more when he’s gone , but hopefully we will remember him for his early stuff and not for the Cotton Trader era
that's fair... I'm a huge "fan" of velocity, aggression, angst; all missing from THIS. but I also get that perhaps he's rethought approaches; all greats do it, and he's trying to get the message across in a new way? may make it more palatable for him; we may see/hear more of the beloved Jam catalog in a new variation.@@graemeraw8894
Yeah !.. the drummers don"t add anything .. and do not look like they actually want to be there. The concert at Festival Hall was good and during one of the songs you can see the women playing the violins are actually laughing at them .. rocking forward and backwards .. complete with man boobs ! Almost more embarrassing as Mick Talbot in the Style Council "Shout to the top " video where he looks like he is not hitting the keyboard between his legs !
@@neilbillybob3065 Yes it was very good ! A mission to get a ticket but one of those events which was a "must". I have uploaded a number of hd footage on my youtube account and I have also uploaded clips from the concert he did about 3 weeks before at the Birmingham Genting Arena Festival .. which will give you a chance to "compare and contrast" them both.
I did not know what you "ERXPECTED" but what I think you should do first is learn how to spell in English .. it is as follows "expected" but perhaps you have a special relationship with your namesake Mr Donald Duck ? or you might be thinking of the Looney Tunes version... or perhaps Donald Trump who is well known to have no idea what he is quacking about ..
I don’t know why he gets so angry about Clapton comparisons. Jesus, if I’d somehow been able to see this version in 79 I wouldn’t have believed it. Garbage.
Both of them are now in the "not so exclusive" fellowship of "one day at a time" .. total abstinence of the Demon Drink. Eric Clapton attends a function every new year eve in .. Woking, Paul Wellers home town.
when i watched this on iplayer i was quite surprised by the lack of enthusiasm for it! It certainly kicks Mallice's arse. I really like this version, to me it's caught most of the original feel, maybe lost a bit of the different colour (compared to the original at " think of Emma, wonder what she's doing......." But what i'm more concerned about is the rugby shirt and superstar hiTops! Unfortunately for me, most of the the gig was a bit of a bore for me, ..... a man of great promise stood out but the rest i've heard too many times.

He’s been feeding us all since the seventies, he can jam out jam classics however he likes with whom ever he likes.🤷🏼♂️✌️🤘🎸🦊
Per me forse il miglior pezzo dei Jam, bello anche in questa versione❤
Setting Sons was The Jam's finest hour. This version of Private Hell did it proud. Very happy
love this version.......bass, drums, clarity - how can someone write this so young? sanity at last
I often think the same , he was wise for his years
I've been thinking same for years ...not just this song but every jam song.....so young and being able to write what he did ....
How did he have so much insight into the stark reality of 'real life' at such a young age ? Love this version and for all viewers watching this in black and white ..'this one is in Technicolor...,

Did you get in for Royal Festival Hall in October ?
Great tune sums up how good a song writer and performer Paul Weller is. Like Private Hell also amazing song writing. Respect weller

This is the kind of lyric that Townshend used to come up with, and it's full of bitter insight. A simply great song, performed with passion and style.

Gosh listened to this in my teenage years my message is get out of bed and make a difference x

Nah, The Gift
For me All Mod Cons, and then Setting Sons. Love the Burning Sky demo more than the Setting Sons version.
Gotta be setting sons for me to
Sound affects for me. Set the house ablaze is just amazing
john santa greatest warrior
superb 👌
Haunting and a superb version
I bought this over 30 years ago and was blown away - now last night I watched this and was blown away again. Great arrangement and would buy again today. Awesome
Damn was it really that long ago must check for some more grey hair 😂😂😂 what a great show
seasoned musicians at their best and I love the new trainers cheers Paul

Lacks the raw aggression of the original but still has feeling.
wow !! so cool
It's such a bombastic song on Setting Sons - wow!
amazing so haunting he is still the best i have ever heard and i have been to a few from the jam concerts but no one can do his songs like he can Russell Hastings is just a pretend as no one can be Paul

Brilliant 👌

And I hope we can all agree that rugby shirts are cool!
SAFE AT LAST....SANITY AT LAST.......unbelievably profound lyrics

Pol is the best British music writer
Maravilha 😘😘😘
Fucking OUTSTANDING!
To all you doubters the lyrics make the song so good not the arrangement that's why he is a genius
Clearly a thrill to work with some great musos, such a shame they don't get the energy and mood of the original,
is this Joel Stoker (The Rifles)? left from Paul Weller.
Bril what a narrator
Brilliant. To think he was a mere 24 when The Jam split up ...astonishing version
Wrote when he was 21 not the same person in his 60s,time takes everything from us.
He is writing about you .... not himself .
Not sure... wish he'd revisted "Fly" "Liza Radley" or "Tonight At Noon" -
Simon Wells agree with you .. Tonight at noon could be considered as being the present Gravity track !
Where once he was pointing the finger at an older woman and her lot from the perspective of a young man now Paul sees it from the perspective of the woman and the man themselves which makes the song both poignant and a little threatening.
a classy private hell
Brilliant. But loved the original more
Eleanor Rigbyfied, fucking great version 🔥
Me, singing:
Look what he's done to my song ma
Look what he's done to my song
It's the only thing I could do alright
And he turned it upside down ma
Look what he's done to my song
Sorry, Paul. That's way too much.
Love Weller----This version is good but--prefer the original
It's too slow... lacks the emotion and statement the original made.
Agree@@kiwikid4688
Much prefer the original version, but 1 has to admire weller improvising and putting a different spin on 1 of the many great songs that hes written.

Prick as well......

when i watched this on iplayer i was quite surprised by the lack of enthusiasm for it!
It certainly kicks Mallice's arse.
I really like this version, to me it's caught most of the original feel, maybe lost a bit of the different colour (compared to the original at " think of Emma, wonder what she's doing......."
But what i'm more concerned about is the rugby shirt and superstar hiTops!
Unfortunately for me, most of the the gig was a bit of a bore for me, ..... a man of great promise stood out but the rest i've heard too many times.
Seems to have lost some energy.
