I was one of a group, under the guidance of the late Michael Howells, who painted the backdrop. We got the job and had 3 days to produce and psint the whole thing. We did it but didn't sleep for 3 days. I delivered all the painted flats to the location and fell asleep in the van going around Shepherds Bush roundabout @ 6am. When we woz young!!@

This song is a masterpiece. I´m a guy from Vienna, was 20 and at the military then. Unbelievable, how the British bands delivered during the 80ies. So independent, talented, creative and cool. Real musicians, real bands, real enthusiasm. No computers, no fucking effects, no people as part of the show - and nobody knows, what´s their role and why they are here. If I think of 80ies music, more than 50% of the songs I remember, are from bands like Style Council.Paul Weller is a genius and was a great influencer of British music during these times.

[@davidcarrol110]

Mass unemployment in Britain in the early 1980s lead to people forming bands to make money. Hence the Second British Invasion was born. All part of Thatcher's plan. Great music, though!

[@bobbysausagefingers4405]

I'm always proud of the creativity of this mediocre island

[@t.n.3819]

British musicians were definitely using computers and effects for music production, even in the 1980s. Don't blame the technology for the blandness of modern music when the issue is a lack of creativity and an industry that chooses to churn out derivative, overproduced garbage rather than take risks.

[@veganath]

Also 20 in 84 & in the military in Australia, this song and so many others like it were transformative an optimistic time to be alive, I feel for the young kids of today indoctrinated to be fearful, pessimistic, & so angry, where are the songs that give hope.... nothing...

[@gardengeek3041]

2023, & I am an old guy, in Canada, and suddenly a new fan of this song. Thanks to KZbin, am able to view several old tapes of Style Council & Weller performing this song over the years. This version is by far the CLEAREST where we can hear the genius of the lyrics matched to rhythms . Like so many here overseas, I don't understand why the group did not get more play at the time. Of course we knew of the song and their other UK hits, but it was mainly played in dance clubs. And now, thanks to archives & KZbin, it's fascinating to learn details of what led up to Style Council, details of the band members lives, and where they are at today.

涙が出るほど懐かしい コーラスの女性がクール 本当、大好きな曲

[@malena2467]

This is a F A N T A S T I C song. I love it🥰

[@irwinwesley8297]

I was 13 yrs old in 1984...In TORONTO..best time of my life a teenager in the 80s decade.

[@jrogriggs2840]

This song is about Keep Going.....get up and keep going. I was watching 'Vision Quest' the other night and this song came on. I love this song. This tune still kicks ass after more than three decades, just like Weller

[@bigkozlov]

This is the best song to test your stereo system to. Full range of instruments, frequencies and vocals. I used to carry the vinyl with me when buying systems worth thousands of dollars.

Was that trading your food stamps?🤔😂

This song just shows how good the eighties was

[@seagreentangerine2065]

Paul Weller is one of funniest, loveliest men in music. I randomly found myself next to him at the hairdressers in Selfridges, he is very funny and relaxed, nothing starry or precious!

永遠に大好きな曲。 元気がでます。

[@antonellabolognesi4674]

Fantastici i Mitici anni 80 .Questo brano se non ero risale al 1985 .Lo ballavo sempre in Discoteca , con il mio fidanzato di allora .Anni spensierati ,belli .Per una nostalgica come me ,ogni tanto fa ' bene un tuffo nel passato

It's thanks to all the shite weather they have in the UK - they've got no choice but to stay indoors most of the time learning to play their musical instruments. Mind you, New Zealand has an inordinate amount of brillo music too, & we're only 4.5 million people, at last count (though heaps of us are UK descendants too, so that supports your theory)! :-)

[@rommelbernardo4204]

I love it how Mick seems like he is agonizing while playing.

This song I see Weller being truer to himself more than any other song that he made. It’s up there with the best songs he ever performed.

The vibes on this record are off the charts Pure gold

[@cyblade888]

Only music can make you feel a wide range of feelings, even very different from each other, all together. And if you listen to a song that belongs to your life, this feeling expands even more.

[@cyblade888]

I miss you brother.....
