@armadillo01, You are correct, very keen eye! By this time, Russ Senior didn't like the direction of the band. And Im a R.S. fan, but he never contributed one fucking song! He should kiss Jarvis' ass that he does not need a day job!!
When I listen to their albums today, I gotta say that every single one got its specific charm.. but I gotta admit that not many albums were able to win favour with me like "TIH" did... "the fear" was just amazing,, and then Dishes... I couldnt believe my ears when I first heard it,, and it still makes me get goose bumps. BEAUTIFUL!
I loved His n Hers but I'd gone off Pulp a bit around the Common People time... Then I saw this performance on telly and instantly loved them again. Went out to buy the LP the next morning. Was slightly disappointed to the quieter guitar on this song, but only slightly.
my husband's initials are JC also and there was only one Jesus and the C stands for a name meaning annointed one in case you wondered. Interesting lyrics, and it seems Jarvis is afraid of getting older. I hope he comes to terms with this, as there are worse things in life than aging. It is just a number and nothing to fear.
I want to make this water, wine but it's impossible... I want to make pulp a band again but is it impossible?
I remember when I was walking down the school and I was singing this as if I was a little school girl, people were smiling at me. Those were the days... the times of yore.
Remember watching this and everyone at school on Monday morning saying how shit it all sounded compared to Different Class. I thought it was good then and it sounds even better now.
I remember thinking at first that This Is Hardcore was overproduced, overblown and coked-out (probably due to the Be Here Now factor) but soon enough, after a few listens, I came to realize it was (and still is) Pulp's masterpiece, and this is an excellent version of a great first track: I'm really liking the added organs.
Jarvis Cocker = JC but not Jesus! One of of the best Pulp lyric song. Other bueatiful songs are "Something Changed", "Little soul". That's my favorite band ever! Viva Pulp!
"This is hardcore" and "I'm a man" are not so lyric as this one. Another awesome lyric song is "Birds in your garden". Also "Underwear" nice one but girls don't like it :)
I'm tryting to share on facebook but it isn't working.

I prefere This Is Hardcore to Different Class just because it is darker and more meaningful. I think it is their best album.
Don't you think Jarvis looks like his music. :)
Allybob101 3 years ago 4
I think Different class is as meanful as This is Hardcore even if TIH's topics are more mature
