[lunny5]

[MultiPeaceful1]

Oh come on, stop being precious , it's not a bad version. Wanted Paul Weller to do it though

[prunch72]

Richard Archer?? well Mr Archer you missed the target by a mile here

[prunch72]

Isn't mimicry the ultimate form of flattery? Glory be to the Mod-Father

[stevej061069]

steve craddock shows himself up for the dick he is as well by the way. fancy being paul Weller's sidekick for as long as he has and not even knowing when the chorus to this song starts.

[stevej061069]

who the fuck is this twat???? i would have got up on stage and nutted him for this shite! Weller should have called it to a stop and told him to get the fuck off the stage. Before apologising to everyone for putting them through that. Snotty little CUNT

[brunster64]

"I first felt a fist, and then a kick" - thats the least he should have had for this shite!!

[forestfan3]

@brunster64 lol thatsso true hahaha

[uglybus7]

absolutely fucking wank!!!!! what the fuck was he let near a mic for?? he's terrible and weller should have stuck his size 9's up his arse and kicked him into the moshpit........ruined a classic!!!!!!! pubsinging karaoke at it's finest.

[PsuedoMacro]

CLASSIC SONG. SHITE SINGER.

[adamskidev1l]

the music is quality but the singer... well lets just say callin him terrible would be an understatment.

[DaMnMeSsEdUpKeYbOaRd]

Fuck you Richard Archer... Fuck you very much

[justice4shaun]

wtf!! terrible,shocking in fact.

[bigjoeburke]

Wow - I only made it 23 seconds before realizing this is complete crap.

[goplayupyourownend]

What a shit rendition of a classic song.I have never wished throat cancer on anybody .But!!!

[RGFoster1]

What an utterly shit performance. The singer must be ashamed of himself.

[andyfitz1303]

fuck me. this has to be the worst thing that weller has ever done.

[1q6z]

is he singing the same effin song ? I can't watch :/

[mufcmob]

jesus christ how did this happen?what was weller thinking?

[spitefulload]

Who's the geek? Is he from Ant & Dec

[ascotsmaninusa]

oh Paul why did you let that muppet sing?

[mikehunt4375]

God awful

[selcoboy]

The useless cunt has fucking murdered an all time classic

Can never listen to Hard fi again

[funkybassman2007]

what a load of shit!!! ruined the jams greatest ever track! Weller must've been pissed!

[JosephKemetmuller]

snotty little twat, fuck is weller thinking?

[xXSm1thNLXx]

oh no, what a fuck up , mr weller no , dont let sum twat ruin your masterpiece

[RichardJBroderick]

To be frank I am astonished Paul Weller has allowed this to happen.

[immaculate27]

think a good version

[whenuryoung]

Better watchin from the jam!! without weller more energy, more jam and just as good as 30yrs ago same passion and sound...

[LordHeath1972]

I can't imagine what the experience must have felt like to stand up there on stage with Paul Weller and be given the opportunity to sing this classic Jam song not only in front of him, but also a big crowd.

Unfortunately it only proved one thing.....great for HIM, not so great for US!

If I ever won the lottery I would be up there trying to organise a Jam reunion!!!!!!!!

[07owen77]

what the fuck is this, well and truly spoilt

[hoddlewaddle]

terrible...........

[themusicfella]

Tidy !

Good for him!

[bass234]

lol at wellers face when stevey c comes in too early

[ogdens67]

paul must of had a few beers when he agreed to that one...not good,although to be fair i read an interview where he stated that he wont be playing tube station live again cos it didnt work,so we can thank that twat from hard-fi for that...

[kalderen4321]

Wanker !

[JTKKavanagh]

Ooooooooooooooooooh dear....smalling begalling?

[jyskynoma]

Fuck....

[pmatty77]

oh my god....he's murderd it

[speedpowder]

Archer is fucking awful, why did weller agree to let this mug murder a classic!

[OntheLemo]

Shame on you u twat , shit performance

[nigeandsian]

shocking

[TheLatchford]

the wine was well flat and the curry recycled by the time he rembered its the most important lyric in the song.I wish these kids would do it properly or just sing the shit that they wright

[kirkbyla]

cubt

[delboy67]

think of Jimmy from Quadrophenia as a Fud. . not an never will be wortrhy..in a word embarrassing

[searchformurderclues]

This is a truly shit performance.

They also play "in the city" in this set, the video is somewhere here on youtube, if you think this is bad, watch that video, it will make your ears bleed.

[CHRISAMBIENCE]

Why would such a genius pick such an incapable-at-singing twat to sing lead to such a fantastic song of his, and then sing backing vocals to him!

[cookieboy200754]

nah i don't like his voice at all, sorry.

[janicepjam]

sad...I'm a huge weller fan but this makes me feel ill

[john0chev]

same .......whos the other dude?

[lizthestrummer]

his voice goes right through me

[SullyMcfc2009]

Ruined it

[johlufc]

Sorry,maybe i should qualify that as i have been out of the uk for a while but who is that talentless cant?

[kirkbyla]

you could have been on mars for years and still have vomited at this injustice

[johlufc]

'Scuse my french but who the FECK is this TWAT??????

[Weerich91]

Not worthy to share a stage with Paul Weller ... Can't believe Weller let this prick sing. He's such a better singer himself. Proper tune ruined by a shit singer.

[GerryinSingapore]

a dubious performance by Archer, but a noble effort, reminding us that the great music was made by our elders. Everything I hear these days is a version thereof.

[srdsol]

Still the best 3 piece band ever, not even Weller can better it despite years spent trying. Shame he is too arogant now to reform with Rick and Bruce, do a sell out tour at major venues and give the people what they really want.

[wolfmans46]

I disagree with you all. Paul was on stage and this guy is good and remindes me of The Undertones. And my Cousin Kevin agrees

[adamskidev1l]

ithink the tunes mint and "down in the tubestation" is a quality song and so are the jam but i agree with many people here this singer is rubbish paul weller rocks

[5hits2009]

go on weller!

but wot a cunt whos singing, from a wank band! embarrasing, weller shud do them on his own or with oasis.............anyone jus not shit two bit indie bands...............

[websterpne]

Everyone slagging off Richard Archer have obviousl heard me sing this on karoke.

[kakdapps]

hard fi are wank

[kalamikid]

Utter drivel!

[DylanOB]

shocking

[janicepjam]

embarrassing

[LordHeath1972]

Regarding your comment on the "Tube Station" clip where you simply said "embarrassing"........I couldn't agree with you more.....what a prat - to stand in front of The Jam's front man and "sing" like a twat.

You don't go on stage and perform such a classic song as this and fuck it up - for fucks sake man if you are given such a privelege as that you do it properly.

The Jam ROCK!

[SunnBurn]

Did someone happen to notice that this version isn't...well...very good?

[SmithersJones87]

To be fair, wouldn't you shudder if Paul Weller, a man hitting his 50s, dusted off his old Rickenbacker and started pretending to be 21yrs old again?

Which explains why he gets Richard Archer to (more or less) do it. Nothing wrong with Hard-Fi either, even though their 2nd album was a tad disappointing compared to their debut.

Decent performance actually.

[KingBison]

fuckin disgustin cudnt even watch it all, theres a reason hard-fi lasted about 2mins COS THE SINGER SUCKS

[RDVP1969]

Cant sing, dont know the words, what an abortion of one of Wellers finest songs -what a complete wanker - rather have a bunch of wasps fly up my arse than listen to this cunt

[jerndy1969]

jesus he murdered that, that was dreadful!!! it was like watching X factor. my ears feel  raped :/

[kpthfaith]

This is a really good version and Richard Archer sounds great too.

[jerndy1969]

are you joking, man he sang it like shit!!!

[TheMusicalElitist]

I agree. Its just extremely bad. Hence why Hard-Fi are so amazingly shite.

[Harrylechat01]

Can't find anything good to say about the way this guy has ruined a great song - even with Paul Weller providing the best backing available anywhere. Awful, he can't even sing half the time, it's just out of breath talking. DIRE

[kershawmassive]

paul, its you we want to sing, not a twat!!!

[elsoda]

@kershawmassive fucking aaaaaa...the destroyed the song and not in a good way...

[kershawmassive]

how can a man like sir paul my uncle sing a song ilke tihs

[lomasca]

its not great but tbh it could be alot worse.

[janicepjam]

cant believe paul weller wd let this guy sing such a classic, its complete shit

[uglybus7]

he murders this song and sounds camp when singing it!!! no fire in his voice and i dont rate his band hard fi!! we do a better version on my site than this..get in there son!

[shamblesparty]

weller is a legend anyone who slags him off is a complete wanker get out of country pricks and rich archer is mint aswell

[paul36uk]

You think he would learn the words at least!

[ominslash123k]

personally i think hes trying to hard to sound like paul, =/

[gymnosophy]

karioke

[seandrumzmusic]

it would annoy me to see paul weller playing this song but not singing all of it.

[camboy38]

mistimed backing by craddy???!!!!

it was in another decade hahaha

legends though weller and craddock!!!

[EtonRiflesWeller]

i cant believe your slating weller for doing this. you should be lucky hes even doing it at all. ok it aint the best version, but think yourself lucky anyway

[Spiv62]

oh nooooo

[logos120]

give the kid a chance - "Come Together" - different style , but there u Go !! ..... "Give PEACE a CHANCE" !!! - He Tried his Best.

[ivortheengine74]

Richard Archer Who? Kick out the Style,m bring back The Jam!!!

[Shesmad]

How dare this untalented little brat sing such a classic.

It only serves to hightlight Paul's real talent compared to the 'rockstars' of today.

[SEPHIROTH2AWAKES]

Paul should of shoved him of and sang the rest, he so shite lol

[davb015]

what you doing with this cunt paul

[downintubestation]

what a cunt...what the fuck is weller doin with that twat gracing the same stage as him...tut tut paul!!!

[walshy009]

What the fcuk was that

[oneeyedjill]

Roger Daltrey recently quote on one of their VH1 specials that it's not whether or not he hits the note but the intent. I suppose it's the same for Richard. I'm sure if Weller were offended and was in dislike of Richard and his works, this wouldn't even be something we could sit about and critique.

[seerauberjohnny]

It's not the intent or even the intonation that's in question here but that Archers phrasing is simply horrible and mangled...

[fatuesque]

This is absolute shite.I hope the singer gets run over.

[saltrad1]

What the fucking hell was that? I can only think they must have something on him..

[wellerfella]

i feel the need to comment......yep....Archer is a cunt

i rest my case.

[higherpie9]

richard archer. what a nonce.

hard fi are good

but they arent the jam.

i love you paul, civil partership me!

[meza1975]

Cheers for the video.

[meza1975]

HAHA - watch Weller smile at Craddock when he blows the back up vocals, no wonder ocean colour scene fell down the toilet. ;)

[PhilSupernova88]

OCS are still going. Okay, not as strong as they were 11 years but still going.

[kalamikid]

Utter CRAP!! Seems Mr Archer spent too much time standing in front of the mirror pretending to be Paul Weller.

[bootjangler]

Gotta say that in that concert Weller let a few others perform the lyrics of old Jam songs and it was a mistake, particularly here.

The voice is all wrong, there is no urgency and Weller has to join in to beef it up. It was worse in another song which escapes me at the moment.

[verbusen]

Damn you Brit's are livin in the past! That cover was awesome live, and Weller was involved, I loved it! If I was at that concert I would have been so blitz from booze and seeing Weller I could have died happy from there on! Great post!

[annamolly101]

he just killed an absolute classic what a cock

[Pressureproductions]

i hate that bastards voice like wtf lol plz let weller sing that man its a classic

[Bwana14]

This wa a marriage made in "Netto" Wank Wellerman!

[xxxxDeansy66xxxx]

WTF was that?.

[Doyubi]

Make this faggot shut up. We should all gang up on him and send his ass down the tube station at midnight.

[kizasullen]

fuck me that was horrible

richard archer live = terrible

and i seriously love the jam

so i was bound to say that

but it really was terrible

[mrblunden]

Wow, how to murder a classic. This is sung with non of the passion that marks the origional, it's dreadfull.

[SmithersJones87]

'Tis ok, but covers are rarely as god as the original by default anyway.

Mind you, if he had it 'spot on' he'd be accused of trying too hard to be Paul Weller anyway!

[lottietotty]

DIATSAM was one of the first singles I bought.

I love Paul Weller.

Richard Archer is so amazing I fail to understand how anyone can slate this performance?!

[beevapatrol]

Check out Jaymod69's site, he's done a version of this that is really clever.

[lottietotty]

Doh! I already did silly x

[JPplano]

Might as well be Jeffrey Archer!

[JPplano]

When he mumbles "I first felt a fist" I was expecting him to get one. He deserves it! Cretin! Weller is so out of touch.

[beevapatrol]

Check out a version of this by a guy with a site Jaymod69 really interesting version.

[JPplano]

Dire!

[bluebottle08]

9981A. Hang your head in shame!

[SGQFilms]

HAHAHA that was so bad.Why did Weller let him do that to his song?

[flippered9999]

Not a bad version at all. Thanks for posting it up.

[Cazbaz18]

What is a plum?

[bengine12]

absolute crap!!! that guy shud work in an abitoir cause he butchered that!!

[maximusv1]

Ha ha.

[nuttydreadlock]

mate i know u r  trying your best but no

[sdappo1]

fukin hell leave the bloke alone hes singin a song wiv one of his idols! and probly alot than most of you lot!

[jjgoldie]

hey , cool down, everyone knows wellers version is best , but other people can av a go too and try and put their spin on it ,thats ok surley ?

[drnooky]

This talentless git from Hard Fi is killing that classic tune....

[shakermaker88]

fuckin dreadful!

[johnw456]

paul weller was on guitar and invited richard archer from hard fi to sing. perhaps any negative comments can be sent to paul weller and might also tell you to fuck off, oh and....... FUCK OFF

[kirkbyla]

fuckin hell dick van dyke kills my teen years

[grundy901]

fucking ruins it man singing like a retarded retard

[GallagherWellerBrown]

Does the song justice. Really good aggressive style of singing.

[calummcgill]

Hey I'm just happy this absolute classic is gettin a hearing!!!Weller playin it anyway he wants!

[badwolf1965]

Mr Weller looks happy enough playing along doesn't he? So get over it.....!

[fergal24kinney]

why is this moron singing this, its not even the standard of an incredibly poor tribute band

[drakebell1990]

i agree

[tuzzzzzz]

absolute disgrace ... whats he playin at :S

[mod69]

awful

[sorchaken]

Awful, awful, awful, awful, aaargh.

What arrogance to think he can sing like PW.

Paul - sorry man but a really bad decision here. You are the best and always will be.

Take this video away!!!!!!!!!!!

[lofc06]

wtf

[hayzeboy71]

only one man can pull this of and thats weller him self, a true legend and singer.

[walley0218]

it luks like weller's playin it with hard-fi, he's fuckin killed a great song there like, dus he need to sing through his nose so much?

[nuttydreadlock]

mate your crap fucked a classic what a dinlo

[stuartandkai]

Who has damaged this classic,,,at least keep to the ORIGINAL vocals. Dunno who is singing, but it should be Weller....ALWAYS

[nilsonwheels123]

i hate this stupid cunt! who's he think he is? why the fuck has weller allowed him to rape one of his best songs?? this cunt ant sing, he's a fukin chav - not a mod, Hard-fi r awful, run-of-the mill indie-pop bunch of cunts who try and act hard by pretending to be cockneys!least the likes of the rifles and the enemy are talented bands, they may come across as bands honouring the jam, but theyve got some good numbers. if i ever see this guy in the street, imgoing to say, "Oi! Yourea wanker!"

[RickDaBodyguard]

Thanks for da bad language! Did you see who was playing guitar? Yup. Mr W... Muppet.

[nuttydreadlock]

what r these all about

[igavin]

Why did I have to look at this??

Today is a bad day...

[ChesterHartley]

DIRE!

Weller's voice is fine, why ain't he singing!?

From the Jam were far better than this prick!

[rockdoctor10]

An absolute shambles - and Weller doesn't seem to give a toss.

Bruce and Rick are the only ones willing and able to play this music as it should be played - see the FTJ version (third on the related videos list to the right) thats how it should be done!

[RonWeller]

Richard Archer aint the best singer. But I f**king hate this (the hopeless ones)from The Jam hysteria. If the twats were playing in my front garden I wouldn't open the curtains to see them - there still living of Weller's amazing talents even now - f**king sad or what?

[rockdoctor10]

Depends on your point of view -as a Jam fan or a Paul Weller fan. I'm guessing you're the latter.
