The Style Council - You're The Best Thing: Video

[milesbjameson]

The Style Council were the Tenessee Williams of pop music in the 80's. Keeps On Burning!

[milesbjameson]

Quit beating up Paul Weller. He was gifted with a brain years ahead of his time. At least he did something with it as apposed to the rest of you. Avant Garde in thought and nature, let's appreciate Paul's contribution to music and be happy that someone can speak the words that have most men running scared. Bravo Paul!

Hate to burst your bubble but this is not a love song- the genius of this song is that you can interpret it that way.

[kdoclub]

[CYNLAGASCA]

This song and the video has remained refreshing and exciting for me. Imagine back in the '80s I used to record it in a tape recorder from the radio. This is now the age of DVDs and internet. Wow! Real classic. I love it!

[MountLongdon82]

Classic.

[wonkeywombat]

Weller, what a range and talent. I remember listening to him as a kid twenty plus years ago. We used to sing this song, trying to win ladies, in the hallways at high school (USA). He stands the test of time. Brilliant.

[mdelair420]

[solitudesblind]

When I first found out who performed this song, I couldn't believe that the lead singer of the Jam sang it.

[Doobie1975]

This song came out in 1984? I thought it came out much later than that, this song sure is way ahead of its time, great song

[parsifal6000]

è un meraviglioso brano intramontabile !

[Seanogoals]

Such a chilled song this is.

The sort of song you could listen to 100 times over and not be bored of it.

Great song and I agree extremely smooth.

[GUARUJA70]

So Beautifull... essa musica é maravilhosa...

[larkk22]

Mr. 08,

Americans have horrible taste in music? That's funny coming from across the water...there is plenty of poor taste to go around. The western landscape has its own perspective. The Jam quality work, but the Style Council? Great name, but the music...there is plenty of American pop that sounds just like this song, of which I'm not bragging...wisdom!

[s2kx2]

REAL MUSIC! ... Keep all that mindless hip-hop rap crap away from me!

[pobaldy66]

know what you mean. rich punk, rock, metal, country, crunchy and r'n'b and all.

[LSFfB]

TSC is one of the best thing that happens to me

[hidiable]

This song makes me feel like i'm in love!

[WoodRatGirl]

Brilliant and definitely alot of style.

[mssheltonffss]

This was the first song at our wedding - love it!

[WorldExpoBlog]

Oh I love this tune. Takes me back.

[sloppyjakekisses]

Great song! Great memories!

[wetsailer]

the song is beautiful however bluejacket15 is a sick fuck

[alexrebuxx]

KTF

[kr241168]

that was real good music !

[silverscreenname]

America this, America that. They only had two great songs, that makes it hard to get traction in the market. And before you blame Reagan politics for all this, this band is really the old The Jam which was pro British Empire back in the day. All you 80s bashers, were you anything more than just sperm back then?

[pontoehvirgula]

I looooove this song!!!!

[moondogg43]

Timeless...fuking timeless

[hidiable]

Love this song. so sweet and sexy.

[kidhollis]

The Next best band in the evolution of Paul Weller...The Jam remains number 1 but the body of Style Council's work comes a close second. He has the ear for the RnB/Jazzy feel to this track.....Brilliant!!!!!!!!!

[pzucchel]

it is beautiful

[bluejacket15]

Takes me back in time. 'You're the Best Thing' - One of my favorite lines to unsuspecting pre-teens!

[wetsailer]

your a sick fuck

[onlooker510]

I'm a Conservative and these guys were smokin' during the '80s, but you Ellismortonson are correct, no airtime in a ROCK airwave here. Still, these guys ROCKED!!!!!!!!

[tyoonz]

Truly timeless tune!! This is such a delight to see and hear, again! Such a sophistication it has! Why is it that these guys weren't any more popular in the US? They exhibit more taste and talent in the introduction of this piece than most of the popular bands did in their entire careers. It has been duly "favorited," And thank you for sharing it with us!

[ellismortonson]

Style Council were never as popular in the US as in the UK because US radio didn't promote them heavily. So many other acts from the "British Invasion" of the 80s, even very poor ones, received a ton more airplay. The average American didn't "get" the music or come close to understanding the politics. It was the Reagan era.. I've always wondered why the bril Squeeze never developed more than a very dedicated cult following in the states.

[moondogg43]

Cuz most people over here-in the states-had, expecially when the Council were big in the UK, horrible taste, just dont seem to "get it", if that makes sense, overall Americans have horrible taste in music. And considering so much stuff, music, originated here, just doesnt make sense..

[goonercrew08]

I had no idea overall Americans have a horrible taste in music and you are the exception to that.Next time I buy a cd,I'll ask you if an American would buy it or you would buy it.

[davherex]

Dedicated to my sweet princess, Becca. She's the best thing that ever happened to me. xoxoxo

[Apachahokee]

Not bad!
