Kevin Shields pretty much makes this song his own, but then again that's to be expected if you do a colab with him. Still, a brilliant song, and an odd mix between two great artists.
Stunning. Weller is up there with U2 and Madonna at being a master of change and reinvention. That's why he has remained so relevant and popular all these years
i'm not on anything. i don't have a need to be cool like all these hipsters on here. i've liked those guys since i was a teenager. it's all music, if it makes you feel good that's all that matters.
I thought Weller hated football, he said on jonothan ross' radio that he had no interest in it anyway, it's not about George Best.... reads to me like it's about politics
the footballer in the song is francis lee it refers to a crossword puzzle the strikers name is 7 and 3 letters washing his hands while he walks away refers to him having a mania for washing his hands all the time ! true !
Really? I had it in my head that it was a reference to some Nostradamus prediction or something haha shows what I know! just seems like a bit of a heavy song to be about football, sounds like the worlds ending in the solo!
fuck, i wasnt expecting this. sounds like a voodoo nuersery rhyme crossed with the white album. only complaint is that the vocals are a bit buried in all thats going on there, but im really looking forward to the next album, i hope he follows this kind of direction on it.
On first listen i love the layers of sounds he's got, wasn't keen on the lack of depth in the voice. But yeah, a real grower, fuckin love it now! It's like a bigger development of Echoes round the Sun. Excited for the new album!!!
pauls best song by far.... this should be a hit

I live in Michigan, but Paul's been one of my heroes since I was about 14 or so, when I heard the compilation lp 'SNAP!' By The Jam.

The new album at first is like "Wow this is good :)" now after a few days its like "FUCK THIS IS GOOD!" It's a grower and a half :)
