“They took the keys, and she’ll think it’s me.” is about the most chilling set of lyrics you’ll ever hear. Paul Weller is a lyrical genius.

[@ijustwantcheese1283]

That’s what I thought 😮

[@johnjonesToffeeman]

Yeah,i cottoned on to that line recently, scary

[@KingdomofSiam]

Oh and by the way, "the wine will be flat and the curry's gone cold".

[@Paul-dz6fs]

It's how London Underground was at the time. You took your life in your hands to venture down there after about 10pm. Paul was just writing about what we were experiencing in the real world.

[@andygeorge1]

Remember, Paul Weller was only 19 when he wrote this song….

[@Grimlock1975]

And hasn't stopped since then. From The Jam to The Style Council through to his solo work his work speaks for itself. Makes me proud to be English :)

[@jacobprice8048]

​@@Grimlock1975I'm American, and Paul is my favorite song writer

[@timholder6825]

Kate Bush wrote Wuthering Heights aged 15. Steve Marriott wrote, In My Minds Eye, aged 16. And don't even get me started on Beethoven and Mozart.

[@robertmarriott6767]

​@timholder6825 uncle Steve was awesome.

[@russhaywood6418]

With reference to the lyrics Wormwood Scrubs is a prison in London and 'Have and away day, a cheap holiday, do it today!' was the strap line in an ad campaign by British Rail. The late '70s & early '80s was a violent time to grow up in the UK, with quire a few competing youth cultures. As a young mod I was beaten up a couple of times by gangs of Skinherads!

[@TheWESTSIDE1967]

Great times, apart from the kicking's obviously, 🇬🇧⚒ i was only around 13 14 plus i grew up around the older SKINS in my manor so was safe

[@jkthemod]

The Jam spoke of truth/youth and experience... still beloved decades later for that very reason.

[@daviehudson4270]

The coldest line ‘ they took the keys and she’ll think it’s me ‘

[@stratznhatz]

I’ve listened to this song for the last forty years and it’s taken your comment for me to realise how dark that line is. Such a brilliant songwriter.

[@TheWESTSIDE1967]

True story, in the tube station at midnight was always a risk at that time as a MOD as weller was as it was always lively with SKINS 🇬🇧⚒

[@Jamesfoster48]

The bass player is very good, his name is Bruce Foxton, he's married to my uncle's ex-wife, he's at my family doos. I also grew up in the village where Paul Weller lives and we used to drink in the same pub.

[@Jon-qw2oe]

Fcn hell ,I bet he's got some tales . I used to play the drums and most of my influences back then were from listing to Rick Buckler .

[@PrettyGreen1970]

Paul Weller is a national treasure. One of England’s greatest ever singer songwriters. Genius track.

[@Parmac7]

This song always takes me back to my teenage years in the early 80s driving around with my mates with this blaring out of the stereo full blast ! Wish I could go back

[@gerardmccavana4905]

Love The Jam. This possibly my favourite song by them...definitely my favourite single.

[@dianebrown8046]

LOVE IT !!! got turned on The Jam in 1978, 1st song i heard was David Watts.. was going to Penn State for Art...a Grad Student from UK came in Glass Blowing studio & started playing cassette tape turned me on to them,The Clash & more!!! ( thank you Deidre where ever you are)Will say1978 led me to GREAT Rock life...was on Penn State concert committee,Talking Heads came to play,...I got to sit backstage before concert & talk wiith Tina Weymouth for 15? 20? minutes , mostly about Art,2 Biggest things,she said she was jealous I'd met Dale Chihuly( a Glass Blower was friend of a professor, came in & did Demo) BIG ONE I was wearing a dress I made...,had a bunch of Zippers & Big Shoulder pads, she said she liked it,I said I made it,she told me I should design clothes...so I Did met HUGE amount of Famous by making stage clothes & friends in bands...Met The Jam in 81? Old & years escape me, Was at Club called Emerald City in N.J. ( had Great Neon lights all over)...talked to Bruce Foxton most, Paul was nice but quiet...THANKS for Giving me Smile & Hope You don't Mind OLD Lady's Overshare !! Rock On !!

[@andyf2837]

As a Jam fan from the late 70s inaging my joy hearing a Town Called Malice being played at Fenway Park in 07 during a red sox game. Boston gets UK music!

[@robt7199]

Paul Weller is the MODFATHER

[@KingdomofSiam]

"I first felt a fist. And then a kick. I could now smell their breath."

[@Lee_River]

I’ve always found this song extremely moving. Weller is a master of pathos, and The Jam made powerful music.

[@patriciabyrne7391]

Greatest lyrics of a song ever!

[@gerardmccavana4905]

Loving your reaction by the way 👍 You guys are well tuned into the Jam and Weller sound. The lyrics and music so important.

[@jono.pom-downunder]

This was The Jams early stuff it was sharper, harder edged than their later,soft bluesy, Motown stuff. This is the quintessential Jam track. The story of being attacked whilst on the way home. Paul's story telling lost that raw "something" in later years.😢

[@jackthelad5366]

Paul weller wrote his best songs after a chat with the late great joe strummer when Paul was suffering from writer’s block, good old joe ❤

[@jameskellard5075]

England in 1979-80 was very violent, as expressed in the music, in a strange sort of way I miss those days. You had to walk tall and show no fear, no weakness. Everyone boxed, everyone fought and knew how to handle themselves and those who didn't stayed in or became victims

[@jonlight670]

“Wormwood Scrubs” is a London Prison.

[@vivwindsor4055]

I really relate to this song, living in London in the late 1970's, it was really dangerous times with the rise of the National Front and other right wing groups. If you looked or dressed a little different from the norm you risked violence and abuse. I have spent many times 'down in the tube staion at midnight' hoping I would get home safe.

[@MrNemo-oi8cl]

Pure S*ite. Jam were great tho'. Dangerous times!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol

[@vivwindsor4055]

@@MrNemo-oi8cl Yeah right you are a pure sh^te head troll.

[@anything3328]

Paul weller is king I’m 28 and he’s my favourite singer song writer ever I relate to so many of his songs

[@leefairhurst9058]

One of the best tunes of my youth and that was a golden era of music . Paul weller a genius....simples !

[@Jonathan-Sund]

Do more covers of British music from that era, the Jam, the Clash, Joy Division etc. The Jam were more of a mod/Indie band, not technically punk. That's Entertainment also a great Jam song

[@markgreen4745]

The Jam, Style council or his solo career. He's never made a bad track, they're all relatable

[@PeterJPickles]

Love your reaction.

[@TheTruthstalker]

I love your enthusiasm it's contagious!

[@mac1975]

Imagine, it’s midnight, in a London and you are on your way home. On the tube. You get attacked, you lose your meal you lose your keys. You think about your wife being at home alone..

[@dazzabazza1970]

If you watch ,"This is England" the movie. You will see the era of The Jam enacted

[@drum253]

It's not too great even nowadays, but, in late 70's early 80's, as a teenager, I definitely didn't want to have to be at a tube station at midnight. Never felt safe there at that time of the evening. PS the line "..they smelt of pubs and Wormwood Srubs and too many right wing meetings.."....Wormwood Srubs is a famous London prison.

[@_Dei_]

Just how good was Bruce's bass...

[@MrLyonroar]

An absolute legend of song writer weller

[@paulgee1952]

At the time it meant more , if you lived in London in the 70's and 80's, where supporting the wrong team or wearing something that stood out, on the wrong platform, could get a kicking or worse, not so much knives , but razor blades , knives were for threat , being cut /marked was more common . Gang bashing is understated in the song, well penned , since once you go down after the initial flurry , not much you can do except adopt the foetal. cover up and try not to scream abuse to encourage 'em. Getting confronted , being asked what team you support was usually as much of the conversation as needed to here , when alone after dark. Don't wanna go !

[@glastonbury4304]

Where is DEI from as he doesn't seem to understand what music genre 'The Jam' are, there MOD's not Punks ...

[@iconcanada3660]

The Jam are legendary

[@Simon-lw4uc]

Welcome to the 80s ! He always painted a realistic picture of those times in England

[@larrycable1827]

You should try A bomb in Wordour street nice jam song with a shitload of social commentary.

[@TheWESTSIDE1967]

Smell of brown leather refers to the Dr Martens he was kicked in the head with, some also had steel toe caps for the rival football fans that was at it's hype 80,s etc 🇬🇧⚒

[@AndrewEdmunds-s7p]

Paul Weller said its based on a business friend who was assaulted and robbed in the tube station while on way home one evening

[@neilryan8401]

The thing with the knives and machetes comes from the National Rifle Association..

[@Malfie657]

Agreed. It's true that London's tube stations weren't always the nicest places to be on your own late at night back when this came out, but muggings were relatively rare - and I don't recall seeing marauding packs armed with machetes then or now!

[@rajnirvan3336]

One of these songs

[@raesmith145]

Try the song ohh do u fink u r. Written by Paul weller last year, and recorded as a duet with suggs from Madness.

[@_Dei_]

@geoffkinna9166 I've decided, Geoff. If the Dad's do another cover, this song... this is such the right song. This is right up the Dad's alley, though that bass line is maybe the most intense bass I've ever heard. Love Paul, but Bruce was a beast...

[@bryanforis1839]

Good song great live band music sounds great 👍

[@paulhadfield7909]

ive been jumped twice when i was younger, by thugs, you just have to avoid those situations, never be alone,at night

[@tonyfromfrance5595]

Paul Weller is a genius, with the jam, and style council too, but he was not a Punk, he always was a MODS and they are not Punk, Rockers or skinhead. In solo Paul Weller is known all over the world.

[@johnjonesToffeeman]

AKA I should have got a taxi

[@Owlstretchingtime78]

The Jam were never a punk band, and yet this myth continues to exist, especially in America. Yes they emerged during that era, and Weller had his angry young man moments, but The Jam were an articulate bunch of classy musicians, who had more in common with the melodic nous of the sixties. I hope this paints a clearer picture of a much misunderstood band!

[@mazzolaro1]

They are not a punk band but of in the style of late mod era 60s

[@charlesbull6188]

Show me a year 19 year old today who could write this just amazing nothing woke here

[@victorbortolussi2964]

Unfortunately they were a bit too British for the U. S. audiences.

[@alanstrom2221]

What a load of crap mate. There were dozens of very British Bands that were very successful in the USA. The Beatles, The Stones, The Kinks, the list goes on and on and on............Led Zeppelin were very British as well. The too British comment is totally baseless.

[@charliegeorge9393]

@@alanstrom2221 no it's not! They are a quintessential British band that didn't quite cross over along with T Rex, Smiths, Oasis, Manics etc.

[@lewistravel1]

Use call paul weller the modfather.

[@garygeorgelewin3757]

The jam was a mod band not punk sorry great channel

[@VonLigenstein]

They ARE NOT PUNK.... SO are The Pogues Punk, What about the Smiths..... Check out Funeral PYRE by The JAM

[@daviddring2365]

More mod than punk

[@bannjaxx]

Not only do the right wing thugs jump him, they kill him, steal his keys and presumably now know his address from ID in his wallet "they've got the keys and she'll think it's me" he thinks as life ebbs away.........dark af, great song tho.

[@gavinoneill3044]

Gettin jumped! No fun brah. Try being a new waver in America in the 80's.

[@timarmstrong3251]

Unless the tube station in question was Mile End and you were dressed in full Millwall FC regalia including a hat with an 'all West Ham fans are gay' sign on it, this story was very unlikely. And The Jam were very far from being punks, they were mods. Their heroes were the Small Faces and the Who (mods) and the Kinks (not mods, but very snappy dresser and similar style music). To be fair, the punks mostly loved those mod bands, too. They just hated Genesis , ELP and Pink Floyd, mainly.

[@robsawalker]

As a mod in the 80s, this was absolutely likely back then. You could take a pasting just for wearing a parka if you weren't careful.

[@pflynn581]

Not really punk.More Mod.

[@jamesgibson9919]

Mods, not punk.

[@paulhyne9971]

Can you just stop talking.

[@KinkKeeNUFC]

One of the best songs ever written.
