Root-de-doo-de-doo, a-root-de-doot-de doy di
Rather appropriate for today.


It is indeed a song for our time.
I like this one you posed a little less than the ones I posted, as yours drifts into that air space where English rock meets music hall, a zone that is ultimately too foreign to this yank. Some Jam and Who stuff is like that to me, too. Something like "Eaton Rifles" I find downright impenetrable, in terms of it's lyric.

Yeah, regarding the music hall touch, I know what you mean but I guess there is a bit of nostalgia in it for me.
I'm not familiar with Paul Weller and the Jam. I was more about the music end of things and how it sounded back then (late '60s) rather than deep meaningful lyric. I was all about the Beatles and then there was everything else.
