I’m 15 but I have fallen in love with 80s Music from The Smiths, Aztec Camera, and Style Council. I have figured out that this music heals you when you are down and makes you feel happy. This is by far better than rap and current pop today.

You have excellent taste. Music is good for healing. Xxx

[@randyw7237]

Congrats! The 80s were a time of optimism, fun, and the entrance into the digital age in everyday life. The music reflects this blossoming. It was the last decade of innocence before the internet went mainstream.

I must confess to being a late arrival to The Style Council sound on just discovering this gem in Jan 2016. Funny thing though, I have been an unknowing Paul Weller fan from way back in 1982 when I was living in Trinidad and first heard The Jam with "That's Entertainment". Loved that tune and played it endlessly. Fast forward to 2016 and I was doing a google search for the genre that Swing Out Sister played and discovered the term "Sophisti-Pop" that was also played by bands like the The Style Council. I almost pasted up on checking the link but took the time to see what the Council was about and then found "You're The Best Thing"..... been playing it for the past two days - love it! Coming full circle 34 years later... Paul Weller of the Jam has another hit with me. Great stuff.

Oh Edmond... well come sir! Welcome! better late then never! :)

Alex Gayle I agreee

"Lying on riverbanks with Mick Talbot"- CLASSIC! It was Paul on his "Brideshead Revisited" and "Maurice" preppy trip, no doubt. Pop today is so foul and sick, anything this romantic would be shut down by record labels, in their bid to degrade any human within earshot. Great story, Edmundo - a classic KZbin rediscovery tale

me too

Hello, how are you doing? It is nice seeing you here.

My goodness Paul was so darn sexy during The Style COuncil years. What a phenomenal band of such high standard musicianship crafted so beautifully.

Made a mix tape for a girl . Didn't we all? Loads of guys were trying this out. I recorded this as Track 1 side 1 Track 1 Side 2. 1 song was all that was needed . Melted her heart .....dated for a few years drifted apart after college but still my best friend 38 years after meeting her. Pretty smooth for a 16 year old with no game but an incredible music collection.

[@suzanmiller558]

Still listening in April 2024. Forty some years ago. I’m speechless

[@terrybranigan9514]

This is the song that my lovely wife and I danced to at our wedding in November 1985. Nobody else knew the song, but got rave reviews. It still brings tears to my eyes all these years later....

[@frederickyongtong]

Truly beautiful song, one of Weller's finest among many others...

[@wolfgangbarnyb2216]

I love it, as I did 36 years ago - nothing more to say...

[@KOKINGWAYNE]

Does get played by Smooth Jazz stations every now and then! Sublime!

[@jamesdoyle3885]

That guitar is simply beautiful. Not many great players have that sense of melody

[@soniamariamiliano3687]

Em 1985, essa música tocava muito nas rádios. Adorava!!!

We just call this The Song. (our wedding song) When times are rough we say, "Put on the song." and we dance. Thanks Paul Weller!
