The "Lizard Lounge" version of Def Leppard...YECH!!! Credit where it's due, the black (um, African American....so much for PC) girl has a kick ass voice, just needs more depth.
It def is a top song... i love it..but why is he dancing like that... its hurting my eyes... did we all dance like that back in the day..?? I have a feeling we did actually!!!! :(
Hahaha.. bet we all did... i know for a fact i had hair like that... well something like that... it was a big flick i had... i always wanted the huge flock of seagulls type thingy.. but could never master it....
You knwo the more i watch this the more i am seeing myself at the local disco..dancing just like that!!! OOh dear!
Hahahahaaa not me i was never as feindish as that .. Massive flick lol, I remember one of my mates was a nu-romantic and he said he went as far as to wear a cod piece.... Why : )
It is about the spirit in us and it is about not being a defeatist, but most of all it is a great tune to dance to. 'cause like Jericho, yeah, walls come tumblin down, yeah...'
I just recently downloaded Party Animals with the English actor Matt Smith who has been cast as my beloveth David Tennants replacement on Doctor Who and in the course of Party Animals this song is played and I burst out laughing because I was in love with this song 20 years ago and have not heard it in atleast 20 years..funny how those great flashbacks work. Now listening to it - I don't really see what it is I loved but it still has a neato beat.
To think Dee had to pretend for all that time that she was George Michael's girlfriend....hell I know what to do with that fine stuff !!! Being a "Beard" for George was a waste of time to help him cover his gayness.....
hes kinda alway been that way. Like in the jam they never talked at all and on the last gig in brighton he had an interview on the pier mutch to the annoyance of rick and bruce.
weller is a musical god this song is a attack on 80s thatchers britain for the rich&money boys&girls it was great for the rest of us it was a bad time its good to see this time around there getting f,,,, too by this depression
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thatcher's free-market ideology is finally revealed to be an atrocious doctrine (as many of us already knew). For once, the rich are suffering more than us working-class people. Will it change anything? Maybe pigs are flying... Great song by the way.
It was filmed in a University in, I think Stalingrad well before the end of communism......so rockin'it up with a camera on you just not likely to have happened in those days!
When they are getting off the bus just watch them stare at her coz she's black. That still happens.
Gosh, such a smartass you are!It was filmed in Warsaw merely 4 years before the end of communism in the only one at the time(!) Polish jazz-club Akwarium. The idea behind the clip is vague, one should really ask Weller, as this was generally an anti-capitalistic and anti-Thatcher song...Capitalism eventually prevailed and the legendary club (est. 1970) was bulldozed and replaced by 164 meters high 5star hotel. BTW, there's no such a city as Stalingrad anymore. There's Volgograd. It's in Russia.
And there is a big local move to have it put back to being called Stalingrad, and why not, the hardest and nastiest fighting in modern history that turned the tide of WW2 was Stalingrad.
Even though Stalin was a paranoid control freak mass murderer, who also held up fighting around Warsaw, refused permission for the RAF to do airdrops, so that SS Gruppenfuhrer Jurgen Stroop could annihilate the ghetto, (April 19-May 16, 1943). Stalin won and got away with it!
ps. Before it was Stalingrad it was Tsaritsyn (1589-1925), Stalin was the local commander of the Comintern who won the city for the Bolsheviks during heavy fighting, which is why it was renamed in 1925.
Volgograd Oblast is the region, renamed the city Volgograd by Kruschev in '61 or '62 coz he hated Stalin.
If you need any other information feel free to ask.
Dear Jack, you're quite good in browsing wikipedia. Anyway you're not quite right. Stalin stopped his troops on Vistula bank in Sept 1944 making tactical truce with Hitler. SS commander von den Bach-Zalewski could level down the whole city (and eradicate 250 thousand people by the way) and anihilate main forces of Polish resistance loyal to the government in London (Warsaw Uprising Aug-Oct44). So try harder, Internet is a good source but it's quite handy to have some elementary knowledge too.
None of this is from Wik. My parents and grandparents and all their generation were in the RAF and Navy at this time, and I read a lot of stuff a long time ago.
The Jewish ghetto uprising of '43 was supressed by Stroop, who wrote the 'Stroop Report' for Himmler. Churchill had wanted to airdrop arms and medical supplies but needed to refuel and go thru Russian airspace, and Stalin refused.
The same happened again in '44, again refused by Stalin.
It's a common mistake confusing Ghetto Uprising43 (I recommend a book "Converstions with an executioner") with Warsaw Uprising44 (recommend "Rising 44"). In spring 1943 Red Army was 1000 km eastward, near Charkov, facing the battle of Kursk. There were no Soviet troops, airfields nor airspace near Warsaw at that time. Moreover in 43 RAF had no airbase to carry out such a far airdrop. There were some drops in 44 from Italy finally but too little too late. The'truce'was unspoken & informal.
It was the era, you likely looked like a twat once upon a time, but you simply were not a in a pop band and had a video to track your earlier looks! Cheers
Friends of mine used to sing the chorus "Windows crack and buildings fall, cause Dee C.'s voice is terrible." *rolls eyes* She's not the best but she's not terrible.
Ehhh...she's average at best. Her voice has nothing special to it. But yeah, exchanging bodily fluids with Paul Weller can help keep your place in the band.
Her name is Tracy, she was an artist signed to a record label Paul started up, cannot remember the name of it, she had one minor hit I think. She also sang backup on Beat Surrender.
"they take the profits, you take the blame." it may be that the people have finally had enough, and for once the guilty are going to be held accountable.
I saw Paul Weller play last night. Four years after this Style Council video was made, a certain Wall did come tumbling down. Shame on all apologists for the former Poland, GDR regimes et al!
Even better at 2.59, when you see some dude with his back turned to them, chomping away on his lunch...they were probably tempted in to watch by a baked potatoe and steamed cabbage.

great tune, brilliant music in fact . The bird was welllers bird too despie his skinnymalink physique and her rabid sexiness . Great music in the muscial wasteland that was the 80s . Kpt a lot of us sane and sustained hope .
but the fucking hair . Oi..weller...your gay hair..what the fuck happened your hair . Looks like elton john and robbie williams had a roller disco extravaganza in your barnet
Communism, the most oppresive ideology of all time, look at the faces in the video, there is no greater violation of human rights than the state to control every aspect of your life.
great lyrics,it said everthing about the feeling for the bitch thatcher pity the youth of today cant stand up like we did,but i guess they are to interested in killing eachother ESTABLISHMENT 1 WORKINGCLASS 0
I just saw a statistical analysis of the Economy of the UK which showed huge growth in prosperity for all classes in the UK from 1980-1989. I'm in the States so I have no experience firsthad, but how do you explain? It was by a noted University BTW....not rigged by the politicians. Irregardless..Weller kicks ass. Great song!
F***ing hell can Paul Weller write a song or what? This is such an incredible tune. The Jam/Style Council/Paul Weller is very much under appreciated in the States, although I hear they/he has a near cult like status in the UK.
he is a national icon and a much loved campaigner for peoples rights.i love the man,glad he didnt play at the mandela concert with all those love me i love myself washed up self rightous pricks
its got nothing 2 do with eastern europe!!!!!!!it was about the tory goverment at the time(1985)...so if u go away and read the lyrics it says public enemy no.10 meaning 10 downend street.dah!!!!!!!
Love this song so much but it is so alarming how at the time this song was so anti Tory, now can so easily be attributed to the Labour government we have now!
believe it or not Paul weller married her a few months after this video . Her name was Dee C lee , used to sing backing vocals for Wham/george michael . No chance of that poofter marrying her . But beautiful with a great voice , total soul girl who suited the style council perfectly.
Yes She Sure did. Check out 'Young Guns (Go For it)' on Top of the Pops 1982. Miss Diane (D) Sealey (C Lee) was there and recognise her sweet tone "What the Hell's got into you?"
How exactly is Come As you Are a "dangerous" song? Because it mentions bleach which is a corrosive cleaning agent, ooooooh riske. I never knew what the hell kurt was singing about anyway? Do you know what that song is about?
not only are you wrong (which of course you can be - in your case it actually quite suits you) but you're also a CRUSHING BORE. Go away mate. You sound like a frustrated music journo. "I expect danger" !!! Get off the net and go find some you little tart.

believe it or not Paul weller married her a few months after this video . Her name was Dee C lee , used to sing backing vocals for Wham/george michael . No chance of that poofter marrying her . But beautiful with a great voice , total soul girl who suited the style council perfectly.

Yes She Sure did. Check out 'Young Guns (Go For it)' on Top of the Pops 1982. Miss Diane (D) Sealey (C Lee) was there and recognise her sweet tone "What the Hell's got into you?"

not only are you wrong (which of course you can be - in your case it actually quite suits you) but you're also a CRUSHING BORE. Go away mate. You sound like a frustrated music journo. "I expect danger" !!! Get off the net and go find some you little tart.
