  • Puts almost every pop song today to Shame!!!

  • In my entire life I've never had one minute where I was even half as cool as Paul Weller. Style Council indeed.

  • Such a classy song, magic!! All the advertising around the clip spoils it though.

  • Superb Style Council doing what they always did best - a great song, powerful undertone in the lyrics, and brilliant cool music. This was the 80s at their very best.

  • Not only was Maggie Thatcher right to shut down the government subsidised mining industry in the UK, but it also pissed people off enough to make great music like this. Paul Weller might be an economic ignoramus but he's a very talented entertainer.

  • Yes bad times, where did all the unemployed people go? no body ever addressed this great loss that has never been filled, sorry dont want to spoil Pauls singing, xxxxx

  • best 80's music came from the uk....

  • what a cop out!!

  • One day, the lyrics of this song won't make sense anymore.

  • @worotan I sure hope so...

  • @worotan what do you mean?.....of course they will.....its like saying one day the sound of music wont make any sense!

  • 一つの栄光!金字塔!!

  • This is by far the best song from the Vision Quest soundtrack!

  • I still fancy Dee C Lee.....

  • @stevo71109 yeah me too but me bird still loves me :)

  • One of my favs of all time - full blast in the car - always made me feel great!

  • If you dont listen to these tunes often you forget how good they were and still are!

  • They would of smashed that bitch after the vid.

  • @McMeevin If they didn't, I am disappoint.

  • Love this song, but... I like how MIck Talbot looks in this, but Weller and Dee... Oh, the eighties...

  • Comment removed

  • No he's a Who fan.

  • Guy with the dark glasses - Doctor Who fan for sure!

  • @thecityofdomes That's Paul Weller you stupid twat. King of the Mods

  • @davebchester Hahahaha - Brilliant reply!

  • @davebchester This has to be the best response to the unschooled/unwashed that I've seen for a while. How sad that some people simply have no clue, even after all these years. Long live the Modfather.

  • @thecityofdomes "guy with the dark glasses" - are you serious?

  • @elderberry666 are u kidding thats paul weller remember the group called THE JAM remember or do u,hmm maybe not,well its paul weller,paul weller paul weller nuff said.

  • @morseman4 I don't think you understood what I was saying, it was meant to be obvious that I knew it was paul weller, and that I was stunned that @thecityofdomes referred to him as "the guy with the dark glasses", hence the quotation marks on my first comment. Apology accepted.

  • @thecityofdomes

    Ha! Love it when ignorant twats make fools of themselves with dumb comments.  What have you done lately mate?

  • it is about Class difference ... I remember the miners striking and as soldier we were on stand by to fight them ..thank god we did not there would have been a revolution.

  • how good was music in the 80s .this just proves it

  • Moooii Liedjee :D

  • hahaha, Paul looks cool.

  • Jesus Christ, a fucking toilet paper commercial leading into this song...fuck advertisers seriously

  • One of the best songs ever written period.

  • @thubtenchojenyima no dear

  • agree, is quite interesting

  • This is in my top ten, absolutely great tune. We used to blast this in the Well in Gibraltar every Sunday loud

  • hot or wot? xxx

  • Paul likes hot black chicks. Ain't nothing finer than a hot one. Ain't nothing worse than an ugly and/or nasty one. I thank God for hot black chicks every day.

  • @yourgoodsons wow. youre great..

  • @yourgoodsons Amen & Hallelujah brother. D.C. Lee was married to Weller for 10 years...that man has taste

  • If anyone is able to tell me how successful this song was in continental Europe, I would be grateful. Thankyou.

  • No break — how pants should be worn.

  • The piano player is going through speed psychosis...

  • the song is the bomb diggety. chur

  • One of my favourite song, it's always bring me back to my childhood. I've grew up with that song and many others.

  • When you're knocked on your back - an' your life's a flop

    and when you're down on the bottom there's nothing else

    but to shout to the top -- ACE

  • Love this song. makes me upful. LOVE Paul... and Dee looks beautiful.

  • This video is mint-condition. It's rare to find 80's music and visuals this classic.

  • Saw these at Glasto 1985. Paul Weller great singer and guitar player

  • he looks like rodney trotter. quality tune.

  • cool as penguin piss

  • @samsokphai

    Alongside "Nuttier then squirrel turd",my personal favourite . That has got to be the best analogy ever sir .

  • This song helped me through the most challenging time of my life. It still helps me to this day.

  • dc lee mmmmmmmmmmm lovely

  • @TheJohnnyh61 mmmmmmmm urright

  • EPIC¡¡

  • mick talbot intense or what !!!

  • how come weller is so cool????

  • vision quest .

  • this song is so catchy.

  • ..... .shout to the top ... shout¡

  • Mick Talbot is so angry, to emphasise the angst of working class towns across the land. The time this was written was a very grim time in the UK. If u check out the lyrics it's about not trusting the Tory (conservative) political Party. The large painting is of coal miners & Maggie Thatcher was closing down all the Govt. subsidised coal mines across the country back then.

  • @agentsharpe99 Still hateing thatcher i am.

  • @agentsharpe99 - some things never change, eh? Still can't trust the damn Tories and their failed, fucked up "austerity" programs.

  • @agentsharpe99

    Kinda ironic then, that this song was heavily featured at the 2009 Conservative Party UK annual conference . . .

  • I love it!!! Its brings me back to my youth, when everything was without worries!!

    It makes me wanna go out and dance ill forever!!

  • dont make fun of mic talbot! hes expressing himself through his sporadic motions...... oh no wait i think a saw a girl under the piano doing something.... ewe

  • Musica!!!! en toda la extensión de la palabra

  • Black chick = hott

  • This music still rulez today, especially compared to that amount of shit that radios playing today.

  • Thats how you play the F$%K out of a piano!

  • Everytime I hear this song, I feel better:) I need to dance! Move!

  • Fantastic!

  • Beautiful and great !!!!!

  • killer hoody

  • colorado by we are trees sounds like this song

  • @tcvicesquad Cant you just appreciate her for her singing?

    On the plus side, awesome tune :) love it!!!

  • buenisimaaa cancion....bravo

  • fuck you vevo and fuck you SC for using them fucking losers! I will not watch videos that go through vevo!

  • DEE CEE LEE!! <3<3<3

  • the murals are depicting the year long coal miners strike in which thatcher got the working men fighting againsyt working men the bitch

  • @LewisDF that anti union bitch should die with all other anti-unionists!!!!!

  • i like the big picture behind

  • VEVO once again u block me WANKERS y u stopping me watching MY EVER CHANGING MOODS ? punck of cock sukers

  • VEVO lick my hair ass u bunch of wankers

  • Even seeing this video in a current context, I would believe if someone told me that this video was recorded recently.

  • Anyone know where this was filmed. Love the murals!

  • the pianist is adorable..

  • why is he wearing lipstick

  • The best bit about this video isn't the murals of stoic working class life, nor is it even Paul Weller. It's that pianist giving it everything!

  • paul weller is the most talented singer songwriter britain has had the pleasure of ! the modfather himself

  • @debim123 I agree wholeheartedly! :)

  • Who's paul weller??

    '

  • we need to shot to the top

  • so cool!!!  ;)

    (^。^)y-.。o〇>Masayoshi Taruguchi

    from Osaka,Japan

  • I love the beginning of this song.. :)

  • I've been wondering where my Persol shades had gone these last 25 years

  • I've been wondering where my Persol shades had gone these last 25 years

  • What's with Mick at the beginning of this? He looks like he's ready smash up the piano.

  • I love the top Paul Weller is wearing.

  • TWO minutes of advertisements to watch a three minute clip???!! Are you FUCKING INSANE?

  • Passionate !

  • MAN ITS SO SAD these guys died on 911 Fuck it really makes yea think huh?

  • Has he got Lippy on?????

  • i think the Ginger on the piano has an anger management problem....fukin' awesome somg though!

  • @unclerickie1 I believe the song is about pissed off people "shouting to the top".....we are angry and we are shouting to the top...plus, look at the pictures in the video....this is the theme/message I think...or maybe I am just pissed off and want to shout to the top about how crazy our current President and Congress are! URRRRRR! Shout to the Top mate.

  • The dude playing the piano... what's his freakin' problem?

  • @komikero ...Ha, ha, ha! That's funny! His expression is definitely unique. Real musicians who feel passionate about their melodies, express facial & hand contortions. A great pianist FEELS every note within

    his soul, and transfers this INTENSITY to his fingers (along with his face).

  • @zub28 i get that same feeling banging on the steering wheel, listening to this booming out of the car speakers lol

  • @komikero He's into the song, dumbass.

  • @komikero

    Hemorrhoids apparently...

  • @komikero That's called passion for his craft. And his name is Mick Talbot.

  • @komikero it's called passion mate

  • @komikero he's having an orgasm

  • @komikero really scary how people are so unaware of the name of the song and the pictures on the video that obviously relate to social unrest caused by England's class system (which hasn't died)...something which is still going on today in the news (if you read)

  • @komikero his on gear, thought that was quite evident ;)

  • @SuperBIGTEL "clearly" 

  • @komikero I think he's trying to be expressive ;)

  • @komikero Yeah!... It seems he must go to the bathroom but they force him to play...

  • @komikero He's a total wanker who thought being in a band with Weller made him automatically cool.

  • Muito, muito bom !!!!

    Bons tempos.

  • This is really gay...

  • @rcuberrr and you would know, rump ranger.

  • Heard this on the car radio driving home..

  • Absolute quality :)

  • This is a pretty futuristic sound. Much like Here Comes the Sun sounded really futuristic in the '60s or whenever it was recorded...

  • I like this i can't believe this from the 80's it's soooo good!

  • I know this is extremely annoying but I am trying my hardest to gain an audience. I'm UniqueEverlasting and I post daily vlogs and it would be wholeheartedly appreciated if you could view,thumbs up/ comment my videos and subscribe if you find them enjoyable.

    It's truly appreciated, thank you. (:

  • VEVO GO FUCK YOURSELF

  • it a nice video, the council rocks

  • LOL!!! that pianist is like fucking the piano! 0:30

  • Good !

  • UNA PUTA OBRA!!!!

  • the backup singer is Paul Weller's wife back in the 80's

  • @Roo2221 Dee Cee was nobody's back up singer, mate.

  • La très très grande classe!...

  • That backup chick is SMOKIN"

  • yeah

  • I need to dress like these two.

  • Vevo may be Satan ... Paul is the King of England

  • Piano, lyrics, the moves, sheer cool. In a decade where nobody could argue against music being called 'original' they stepped out and brought us something beyond original. Still sounds great today.

  • What's the Social Network guy doing on the piano? Facebook?

  • @guinnesstrail Fucking great comment.

  • If people aren't prepared to put up with VEVO, the simple solution is to go into a store and pay for music you want to listen to. VEVO is here because the music producing companies are fed up with people freely listening and downloading their music over the internet. And it's fair enough too, they're music COMPANIES, not CHARITIES. Personally, I feel privileged to be able to listen to great music for free whenever and wherever I want.

  • they are like the 80's british version of the balck eyed peas

  • Weller's a dude, always has been always will be

  • Are they British?

  • @frey663 Yes they are

  • なつかしいな

  • なつかしいな

    

  • When will VEVO fuck off??!?!?

    ALWAYS thumb down VEVO parasite videos... regardless of how good the content is.

    Fuck Off VEVO

  • @MeatCloud But c'mon, thier giving you free music! Thats always nice, is it?

    :D

  • Yep how fit is DC Lee..Top Work Paul

  • d.c lee, essex bird. luv it.
