Total respect for Paul. When everyone of his era is out flogging old material, he continues to tour with new recordings. And he turned down a place on the honours list. Good man Paul, you are one of a kind.
Great to see proper bands and guitar tunes like this and what Liam Gallagher & John Squire are doing getting the spotlight. Paul continues to deliver and have an impact, which speaks volumes 40-ish years and three careers after we first encountered him as that angsty young mod in the Jam.
There's a lot of songs on 66 that vocally and song wise sounds like David Bowie's Black Star album. A few people have noticed this, and they both broke up their first successful bands to change directions, Jam, and Ziggy and the Spiders. Paul's got a son called Bowie too. Both consistently changed direction. I may not always like it, but respect it. This is my favourite from the new album.
The first single I brought was Funeral Pyre - it played and played in our old record player cabinet... 66 is doing the same thing on Spotify - everywhere I go. What a lucky world we are to have Paul Weller. Thank you. The best keeps getting better.
Paul is like a good red wine, the older he gets and the longer he makes music, the better he gets. But his band is also fantastic and I was able to experience that in Cologne in 2023.
Wellers voice just gets better and better..this tune is so unique..and that requires genius..PW's back catelogue is unparalleled within the British music industry..perhaps the world.
Great song… again:) Nice changes and that guitar sound…. Yeah!!! The fact that Weller is still functioning on such a high level is a testament to his commitment to the art:) No famous oldies tour BS. Respect:)
Love ❤️ is all So is truth Truth is ... Men have died for love. For ever. Let gay people be Balances equals. Everyone has their person. Wars equal profit. Stop dying for love. Start living for it. Xxx
Paul weller doesn't let songs fall out of the sky for him, he creates, innovates and he'sj just a complete mastermind. He's one of those guys that just know what to do like sting, johnny marr, Roland Orzabal. etc.. A true artist.
I totally agree,The Jam was the first band and music I ever got into way back in the 1970’s but I couldn’t get into the solo stuff like I thought I would?….dont get me wrong,there’s some really good songs but I find a lot of it a bit dreary and middle of the road etc
@@71ibanez A mate of mine got me into "Wild Wood". I really like that and one or two other songs that I can't even remember their titles but, yeah his solo stuff is just a bit dull, isn't it?
Doubtless the Beeb said no and quite right ! Cannot believe he had that flag when he toured ? I know a load of hardcore fans were hacked off bout that and understandably so. I was a mega fans for decades gigs/records/ clothing labels now to hell with him ! Wouldn't go if i had a free ticket and many i know feel the same ! ! I think most of us knew he wasn't the brightest light in the room but really ? 🙄🙄🙄
