crazy baby

paul weller is coming here on the 26/27th of august holey fucking shit!! i can’t believe i just heard… (thats cuase he isn’t?!!? -he is??!! he isn’t???? i don’t know now…ah well here i go in full excitement anyway…) i’ve been in total love with him since i was 8 i swear to god… slowely cming to know his work over the years.. so in ode i’m gonna play nothin but weller from the jam to style council and his solo stuff *sigh* so starting with one of my favourite songs where he’s blending soul with punk very nicely indeed -from 1980’s sound effects… i’ve named songs from albums -the others were either singles/or from compilation albums ’snap’ is a good overview as is ‘the jam collection’

monday -the jam (sound effects 1980)

start! -the jam (sound effects 1980)

great depression -the jam

town called malice -the jam ( the gift 1983) (nearly almost killed by billy elliot/commercials etc but not quite)

down in the tubestation at midnight -the jam (all mod cons 1978)

going underground -the jam

pretty green -the jam  (sound effects 1980)

eton rifles -the jam (setting sons 1979)

mr clean -the jam (all mod cons 1978)

private hell -the jam (setting sons1979)

funeral pire -the jam

butterfly collectors -the jam (another bitter song -about groupies this time instead of the upperclass)

english rose -the jam - (all mod cons 1978) coversly a beautiful love song

wild wood -paul weller (wild wood 1993)

oh god -that song -so beautiful and has truely seen me through some hard times… *siigh* for many many years -unfortunately i forgot my favourite solo weller album -he’s live with just a guitar and he spans his career -it’s truely stunning… and a nice prelude to his upcoming tour i imagine… anyway here’s the muc villified ’style council’

you’re the best thing -style council (cafe bleu 1984)

long hot summer -style council (introducing the style council…1983)

headstart for happiness -style council (introducing the style council…1983)

i suppose instead of raving on about my enormous crush i could have shared some facts -like he started the jam at about 16yrs old and weidly -not unlike josh homme, with kyuss broke the band up in his early 20’s obviously wanting to go in a more soul direction -which he’d always mixed with the punk but i guess being the eighties and being in love and not an angry teenager anmore resulted in the style council. we have to evolve right? i mean jesus… obviously he recieved a LOT of lfack for it and in the hilarious video for long hot summer you can see on youtube -a very homoerotic video of him punting and oiling his bare chest and stroking the other dudes head -either he’s again making a pointed remark about the upper class or he’s been called a fag from going from punk to sweetness and he’s taking the piss -thats my guess anyhoo… very funny and i wasn’t sure if he had a sense of humour he hates an interview anyway!

ok here’s some songs from his influences and inspirations album i love so… yeeesss i play this song all the fucking time but goddmned it’s just so so good and thanks to the weller i discovered it and early marvin gaye

pretty little baby -marvin gaye

god made me funky -the headhunters

some super sweet pretty beautiful songs before we get into my eighties rant i’ve been threatening… ok phew… now when playing at a party… the single most annoying violence inducing thing someone can say to the dj apart from ‘play something we can dance to” especially when people are dancing or just want to stand around talking shit, is (”play some metellica 9 inch nails” so obviously wrong to warrant attention )-”play some 80’s music!!!” arrggg!!!!!!!!!! sometimes YOU ARE…it’s just not what they’re talking about. And lets face it as much as i like doing dumb erobics moves to ’lets get physical’ it sounds harsh as crap when you aint pissed as a newt, or when people are chatting -what they mean is \play some trash!” which lets face it has it’s place but…rarrr anyhooo here’s some actually decent eighties tunes…*sigh*

spanish stroll -mink de ville (ok 79 but hey)

teardrops -womack and womack

ahhh ok… phew glad i got that off my chest… needed to as i took it out on andrewcheeseontoast on sat by yelling “lay some 80’s music ‘ at him at quay st completely forgettin he didn’t understand the context and that there was deep irony involved -i was just being an obnoxius friend.. hehe… never mind!
