      Also, Jarvis has the talent to back up his demeanor, but he can be just as cocky / smarmy in person as Noel is but in an "art school" kind of way rather than "talented kid from council estate" way.
      Essentially the whole britpop "rivalries" are mostly about class. Pulp / Blur being middle class and Noel/Liam being working class.

      @@bretthackett3357 I don’t know man I think Noel Gallagher’s song writing is utter shite. He never wrote about anything important. Pulp did. The fact Noel is from a council estate means shit all he’s still an arrogant twat IMO. The only difference is that Jarvis cocker any interview or whatever where he was arrogant is outnumbered by the amount of self deprecating interviews to the point you can tell he is being arrogant for a laugh. Noel Gallagher just liked to make being from a council estate his personality because he had nothing else to him.

He told us his favourite band was Jethro Tull (didn't mean anything to us!) Outside of school he used to take us fishing and tell us cool stories. Will never ever forget that man.

    Help the aged,
    One time they were just like you
    Drinking, smoking cigs and sniffing glue
    Help the aged
    Don't just put them in a home
    Can't have much fun when they're all on their own
    Give a hand, if you can
    Try and help them to unwind
    Give them hope and give them comfort
    'Cause they're running out of time
    In the meantime we try
    Try to forget that nothing lasts forever
    No big deal, so give us all a feel
    Funny how it all falls away
    When did you first realize?
    It's time you took an older lover, baby
    Teach you stuff, although he's looking rough
    Funny how it all falls away
    Help the aged
    'Cause one day you'll be older too
    You might need someone who can pull you through
    And if you look very hard
    Behind those lines upon their face
    You may see where you are headed
    And it's such a lonely place, oh
    In the meantime we try
    Try to forget that nothing lasts forever
    No big deal so give us all a feel
    Funny how it all falls away
    When did you first realize?
    It's time you took an older lover baby
    Teach you stuff although he's looking rough
    Funny how it all falls away
    You can dye your hair but it's the one thing you can't change
    Can't run away from yourself, yourself, yours-s-s-s-self
    In the meantime we try
    Try to forget that nothing lasts forever
    No big deal, so give us all a feel
    Funny how it all falls away.
    When did you first realize?
    It's time you took an older lover, baby
    Teach you stuff, although he's looking rough
    Funny how it all falls away

    I got into this album when I was about 20. I was going through some personal stuff at the time and the album helped me through it, even though the content wasn't relative to my own ongoing experiences. But now I'm rapidly approaching 30, listening back, the songs are too close to the bone and way more real than they were back then.

    Got an underrated reception at the time, because it's lower key in many ways than Common People was - it was often viewed as a let down as a follow up (even Russell Senior of Pulp didn't get it). But it's got a nagging genius to it, and the chorus hook especially gets in your head.
    Glad This Is Hardcore generally as an album has had the positive reappraisal it deserves in recent years.

    Help the aged
    One time they were just like you
    Drinking, smoking cigs and sniffing glue
    Help the aged
    Don't just put them in a home
    Can't have much fun in there all on their own
    Give a hand, if you can
    Try and help them to unwind
    Give them hope & give them comfort 'cause they're running out of time
    In the meantime we try
    Try to forget that nothing lasts forever
    No big deal so give us all a feel
    Funny how it all falls away
    When did you first realize?
    It's time you took an older lover baby to teach you stuff
    Although he's looking rough
    Funny how it all falls away
    Help the aged
    'Cause one day you'll be older too
    You might need someone who can pull you through
    And if you look very hard
    Behind the lines upon their face you may see where you are headed
    And it's such a lonely place
    In the meantime we try
    Try to forget that nothing lasts forever
    No big deal so give us all a feel
    Funny how it all falls away
    When did you first realize?
    It's time you took an older lover baby to teach you stuff
    Although he's looking rough
    Funny how it all falls away
    You can dye your hair
    But it's the one thing you can't change
    Can't run away from yourself, yourself
    Yourself, self, self, self, self, self, self, self, self, self, self
    In the meantime we try
    Try to forget that nothing lasts forever
    No big deal so give us all a feel
    Funny how it all falls away
    Oh and when did you first realize?
    It's time you took an older lover baby to teach you stuff
    Although he's looking rough
    Funny how it all falls away
    Funny how it all falls away
    It's funny how it all falls away
    Funny how it all, it all falls away

    It's inspired by A Matter of Life and Death, a classic that you really should check out. In the film, the main character falls in love with a radio operator as he's plunging to his death in his spitfire. When you die you take an escalator into heaven's waiting room and you get checked in by reception. Only this time there's been a mistake...

      Yes, and now years later after watching Powell & Pressburger's 1946 British masterpiece, I've only just realised that at the end of the video with the change into black and white and the shots of all the 'stair-lifts' to Heaven (the film was marketed as 'Stairway to Heaven' when it was shown in America) and the band rising on the pedestal in the final 'arena', the video director is clearly homaging similar shots in the Heaven parts of the film, which you can see glimpses of in this new trailer for the recent 4K restoration. th-cam.com/video/S0veuSLLWZ0/w-d-xo.html
