Boy Rabbit, "Can I no do the maths?" Can you speak English?
Weller was rocking long before Oasis were but a gleam in their farther's eyes and will be when they are long forgotten. Noel's good but that brother of his...what a twat!
stop fuckin bickering and realise that paul weller and noel gallagher are both fucking legends, they are both shit-hot songwriters and guitarists. always have & always will be!!!!!!!!!!! GOD BLESS BRITISH ROCK & ROLL
Hear Hear, mate - A voice of reason amongst the ceaseless chatter. We got lucky, we have TWO genius singer songwriters !!! (There are others too, yes, before someone gets all music critic on me ass )
first seen Weller in 1982 the year The Jam split up ....i had to wait till 1995 to see another band to equal them ....its know 2009 n Oasis are still goin strong..MORE THAN 10 YEARS.....tssk can you no do the maths
Cant Believe what im hearin Paul Weller is awesome yes but who the fuck are you guys to bad mouth noel! hes in my eyes the greatest song writer of all time! A legend, my idol, the king!
Just listened to the Chicago 98 set.. Sounds just the same to me, Just does not work mate.. The Jam nail that track and NG pulls out the nail and tries to hammer in a mushroom.... Each to their own though!!
Personally, although I'm no particular fan, I like his version. To me The Jam version is not so much 'nailed' as like being hit over the head with a sonic hammer.
no comparison between the two songs the 1st is a poor, in your bedroom cover of a classic, my mate daz does it better by the way, the second is pure class.
'alone on my expensive yacht' - the mere fact that Gallacher in late 30's couldn't come to terms with the vision of Weller at 20 shows the massive gulf in talent, vision and intellect - I reckon Weller lets him hang about like good looking girls do with fat pals - makes them look even better.
Beautiful man, absolutely beautiful. I know the Weller fans wont like this but I reckon Gallagher owned To Be Somenone and as for No One In The World, what else can be said but pure class.
no way! the jam version is much better! noel gallagher doesn't really get the message of the song across! his vocals sound dreary and drag on at times, at other times he sings softly. in the jam's version we hear the anger of the disillusionment of fame over a well-balanced sound ranging from the early dreamy sounds/vocals to the raw wailing guitar snaps leading up to the third verse acompanied by wellers fierce stabbing vocals which gets the point across perfectly!
The Dreams Of Children certainly came true for Noel... imagine playing with the genius of Paul Weller....

I think it's more likely that Damon sounds like Weller. Erm. Who came 1st, I wonder.
That said, mid 90s Blur were very good, and 'noone in the world' is one of my all-time favourie Jam songs.

The second is probably the most underrated Jam tune ever. Think this version's good? The original from his Jam days is on the 'Extras' CD.
