[@orthodoxblue7252]

This was no 1 for ages in the early 80S when was in my 20’s. Class never dies!

[@mcerruti77]

I can't get over the fact that Fatboy Slim was in this band... Go Norman! :)

What a career Paul Heaton has had either solo or with others 👏

[@nclmkrr]

1:10 singing into wrong end of mic yet no change to sound quality - that's amazing!

[@funguy8801]

No doubt done on purpose in defiance of the BBC's strict mime-only performances on Top of the Pops at the time.

[@himselfe]

You should see what some of the acts used to do to rebel on TOTP because they weren't allowed to sing live. TOTP famously required every act to lip sync.

[@johnwilson9328]

Billy Bragg sang Between the Wars live on TOTP. One of the very few acts to sing live

[@David-sk9vv]

@@funguy8801 Just like Oasis when Noel, or Liam dropped their plectrum on the floor whilst playing the guitar and it just kept playing.

[@CharlestonRat]

@@funguy8801 Didn't Kirt Cobain once decide to deliberately sing "Smells Like Teen Spirit" off-key in protest because the rest of his band weren't allowed to play live?

i don't understand why this isn't considered a xmas song. reminds me of xmas and the girls in chorley standing on the tables in the pub when it came on the jukebox. happy times.

[@mallaka8]

One of my fav songs of the 80s. For some reason when I think of this song I always think of Jackie Wilson Reet Petite. I think they must have been around the same time.

[@jimmyvibes]

They were also both on Now 9

This songs something that's just grown and grown on me ,Paul heaton has done the same ! If there's any1 anywhere that's stood up 4 his own like he has I'd like 2 know who ? From the 1st time I saw him god knows how many years ago he's impressed me no end ; a down 2 earth and very centred lad of real commitment; he was never up 4 the bullshit and glorious make believe superstar world that could make some of lesser credence grab on2 4 all their worth ? Well played Paul you're a diamond and nee bullshit just a brilliant man and a great exponent of a working class lad of great talent but a lad that's never 4gotten his roots ! Ya Ganna dee 4 me son I've been Ganna say this 4 a very Lang time considering I'm an owld rocker I love what you've done with your talent 👏👍🤗

The HM'S were young and credible, they could get away with purposely dressing down and still look cool as fuck. Unlike radio 1 djs who were never young, credible or cool and more than likely to abuse the kids, rather than inspire them. (JP the exception, he knew his place and role as a vehicle to expose the wealth of talent these small islands had to offer. Whilst retaining the look and persona of a much loved geography teacher.)
