MrGuitarmikeg & emmettk --- did it ever occur to you that perhaps Sir Weller was not attempting to better Sister Sledge but to pay homage to a great song and sing it in his own soulful way.......

Much as I love PW This bears no comparison to the Sister Sledge version. No one funks better than Nile, Bernard and Tony. Where's the rhythm white boy?
@MrGuitarmikeg Man, I was shaking my head in agreement while I was reading your comment, then the last two words ruined it for me. I hate when white people do that, and I find it just as unnecessary when we do it.
@emmettk Hi -I'm glad you agree with my sentiment re this version :-) Just for the record I am a white boy! I didn't mean the frivolous comment at the end to sound racist. It's just my observation that the Chic corporation would not have sounded half as funky if they were white guys. The fact they had, in my opinion, the best funk rhythm guitarist in the World ever and the best funk bassist in the World ever made them that bit special :-)
@MrGuitarmikeg Thanks- glad you cleared that up for me. It's all good. I just kinda get tired of getting on Youtube to find great music only to find a bunch of people who get get their kicks stirring up disharmony. Power to the music!
I've always loved the original uptempo version.This is a totally different take on the song- mellowed out. The kind of cover I like- not a remake, but an interpretation.
beautiful, what more can a girl say bout this excellent track.......... next time your about paul my old man would love to chat to you bout this track its his track to me. :D
ha ha...I don't even remember hearing the original of this song, just Paul singing it. And he does it so well, makes it his own. Paul is king. No, sorry, he's the Modfather. Okay, BOTH.
Simply legend. Deserves more respect and credit in music as he is totally underated and you get a lot of shit given record deals and he could kick the fuck out of all of them.
Blandy ftm - wtf this is awesome a totally different version than the original and for the better, these lyrics are fantastic and should be sung like this!! paul - Brilliant as always!!
With you there fella - Have listened to Weller everyday for the last 30 years..and just gets better and better. I thank my lucky stars that I was born in a generation that grew with Paul Weller's music.
