[@mandymarshall9220]

There's nothing like seeing two legends join each other on stage to play a classic song from a classic era.

[@MrStevemarc]

Paul's voice just sounds perfect.... Grew up with The JAM, and so on...

[@mikemike8142]

I am so glad I got to see Paul Last year..... Very impressed! Paul was coming out on stage, grabbed his guitar then looked at us in the front and said "ok, let's rock", Too Cool... it was like being in a private party with Paul Weller...Too Cool

[@Chrisdavies33]

And stop apologizing for the things you've never done 'Cause time is short and life is cruel but it's up to us to change This town called malice

[@iansamwell6874]

I think there is a melancholic poetry to some of Paul Weller's songs such as this song and That's Entertainment in particular.

[@rolandgustavsson6015]

There where times when it was real music not as today, Paul Weller is one of the best sing/songwriter in my opinion, just litsten to all The Jam songs and Style Council 😉

[@jacobr5627]

The Style Council had a few good songs like "My Ever Changing Moods" (The acoustic version), "Long Hot Summer" & "You're The Best Thing" but The Jam was far better.

[@michaelrogers526]

The Style Council were awful. Terrible career choice.

[@philruane5575]

The Jam helped me get off my arse. I was 16 in 1982, saw the jam live. Unemployed in Merseyside, we all went darn south n done ok

[@irene34ify]

You mean Dan Sauf me ole cockney pud

[@tsayer6858]

Quite simply the best song ever written!!!

[@anthonykerr311]

Love Paul Weller jam the best

[@chrisgreene2623]

One of the greatest songs of that era- when " punk" went pop, but the lyrics in this song still ring true. ,

[@Sam_Green____4114]

He sang " to either cut down on gear or the kid's new beer " when it should have been " to either cut down on beer or the kid's new gear ? !! And this is the man that wrote the song !

[@michaelsmall7316]

Think it was deliberate - parents now on “the gear”, and kids drinking beer

[@ronsterronster2408]

The ultimate British song .it should be the working classes national anthem .

[@kingsrd1]

True words spoken

[@markpyrah5477]

This is a brilliant idea

[@TheSmithDorian]

Fantastic stuff - top drawer.

[@lucypeach8794]

Omg I love Paul and Jools together!

[@edwardking8629]

My brothers and I singing my mums called Alice with tears running down our faces as she chased us to stop

[@erndog64]

Nostalgic song. Miss those days.

[@tmukltd]

Wow that's awesome.

[@sniperbluey]

@2:21 "to either cut down on gear or the kids new beer" - think a lot of us get this line wrong including Paul hahaha

[@barrystewart8056]

How to take an emotive song and rip the guts out of it . A classic from The Jam .

[@philipegan1806]

Thank you, ready for coffee 🤫😘🤗🇮🇪

[@philruane5575]

I saw The Jam live at liverpool royatl court

[@dontassumemyfender9866]

"A whole streets belief in Sundays roast beef." It doesn't get any more British than that lyric. As a child, I would count down the days till my next roast dinner.

[@petersaternusbrazil]

fantastic!

[@davidjones6470]

CLASSIC

[@GeorgeRobertson-yk9pj]

I'm sure I've heard Paul doing this with Noel Gallagher but can't find it anywhere

[@fabriziochiapelli4101]

Just Brilliant Paul ❤

[@chrismac2234]

So few of these types of musicians left. Just recording singers now. They can't even sing live.

[@deanholmes8337]

So either cut down on gear or the kids new beer ? Not how I remember it

[@QuadMochaMatti]

Early onset Alzheimer's. Or indifference. Unfortunate if either is the case.

[@ajs41]

@@QuadMochaMatti Surely the original songwriter can change the lyrics whenever they feel like it.

[@colingeddes2172]

Great song from a great songwriter from a great band. My only gripe, being a diehard jam fan , is this is their most commercial song they ever did, and people of a certain age just associate with billy elliott. I wonder what weller makes of that.

[@paulmccormick2639]

Did you spot the mistake ?.

[@thom2185]

Love how Paul Weller won't get The Jam back togeather spouting nonsense about musically he doesn't go back and blah blah .. Then anytime he does a concert he plays The Jam songs ( And there the ones that get biggest cheers)

[@themidnightspecial4676]

Anyone got the chords for this version?

[@ajs41]

Stopped Golden Brown from reaching number one.

[@user-vl2xe2kh4n]

スタイル・カウンシル!

[@mattkent2651]

Is it me, or is it really annoying when Jools Holland 'honky-tonks' all these British classics. But then I guess, it was 2001. Can''t imagine Weller doing this now.

[@vincentb4659]

:)

[@neonskyline1]

Should have left the piano off it did nowt for the song, or got Rick wakeman to play it with him

[@gerardkenny7682]

Recommend Noel Gallagher

[@williewagtail4846]

Cut down on gear or the kids new beer!!! 😀

[@henrivanrooyen4891]

Ever notice how most of us oldies can still sing along knowledgably but NOBODY can do that with today's bloomin` rubbish.

[@paulisblue7187]

He gets beer and gear in the wrong order……. Just saying

[@daniels.2720]

Wayyy 'over-played' by Jools...but hey, its not my show...

[@davidbaker7100]

Absolutely amazing

[@MemskiBobSki]

Another song ruined by Jools honky tonk.
