| Yes to clarify Paul Weller did write this song when in the Jam.... and what a fooking song it is!!! I LOVE Noels version though, i think its all about everyone having similar aspirations through life, wanting to be in the limelight lapping up the fame. but what it comes down to at the end of the day is that we are all made of the same material, no matter what happens, we should just all concentrate on enjoying our lives... making the most of what you've got. Having a nice time!!! a couple of changes to the lines that i have on a live version are as follows: - "getting DRUGGED UP with my trendy friends" "and I CANT AFFORD A TAXI, SO I'LL have to walk love this song. | |
