Great quality vid!! Saw them in Brighton in 1980.

All Mod Cons: just a classic.

Thanks.

[rockdatjack]

lyrical genius for such a young paul weller

[ssssbill]

The jam rock

[rocko2k8]

Weller is top man!!

[ssssbill]

This is my favorite song of all !

[steelyman08]

Never forget them seeing them in Brighton during the Setting Suns era.

This is one of their best. Top Of The Pops used to be worth watching! Just look at the stiffs in the audience.

[kev002222]

Mr Weller is just a legend, this song and this ere just Fucking rock.........

[MeganTheStrange]

Am I The Youngest Person Here?

[ClancyMod]

F**k all this - Go see SECRET AFFAIR play Camden Centre, May 30th 2009.

From The Jam they are not.

[Gixersan]

for all of you talking about what the BBC had before Digi Cameras ..... HOW SAD ARE YOU?

I lived thisera and we did not give a monkey's. is all we hoped is that they would be on TOTP that week as that was the only way we got too see them.

Suggest, head out of your backsides and just listen to the greatest, gutsiest band you could wish for

[AidanLunn]

for all of you talking 9i.e. me). I do have a life. I'm a trainee television camera operator and i have to know about these things. It's part of my training.

There was a lot of video microphony during the BBC's broadcast of Live Aid in 1985.

:33 to :37

[punkrockxzz]

i love how creepy this song is. I also love how paul uses the Pickup selector on his RIC in the studio to get that breaking up signal between verses

[AidanLunn]

don't you know? Before the BBC got digital cameras in 1991, they always mimed on TOTP? Loud noises caused "video microphony" in old analogue electronic cameras.

[dehfaudeh82]

yes!!!

[glassofpop]

This tune fuckin rules.I love it man

[uglybus7]

glassofpop can you check my bands cover and let me know what you think? cheers man.

[LeedsUnitedLoyal]

Is this....mimed??

[thesplage]

of course it is... this is totp

[AidanLunn]

yep. Before 1991 (when the BBC got digital studio cameras) they always mimed. Loud noises caused "video microphony" with analogue electronic cameras.

[BurnellsBass]

this song perfectly portrays what the facist scum of this country are like

[Co1lin]

"..The last thing i last saw as i lay there on the floor was jesus saves painted by atheist nutter..." the lyrics of this song are awesome! One of the greatest bands of the Era.

[SunnBurn]

What? No Rickenbackers! Great song, but anything by the Jam is best played live.

[stigjig]

could you imagine the garbage of today writing a song like this no chance.

[geop444]

the jam at their best

[alzopunk]

Love this song!!

[jackcoffey]

one of wellers finest tunes!!
