Was a punk in 1976 aged 16 and saw all the bands it was a great time to be young and living in London

Paul Weller is most definitely one of the preemptive songwriting legends of his and any generation.

今😃56歳 高校生のとき よく聴いたなぁ 懐かしい

At the end of the Radio 4 news when the newsreader says, "In the City..." my head goes, "there's a thousand things I want to say to you." Every. Single. Day. Not complaining :)

My love for The Jam is huge. What a band!

Two amazing frontmen who have so much swag and then theres Rick who always make me smile....... he is so in control and makes it look like a cakewalk. What a band, pure class.

I was lucky enough to be at the high school when The jam was just making it, and even luckier to meet them getting on a coach after they'd played at Bridlington spa, I don't think they could really understand my broad Yorkshire accent but I think they and I got the jist of it all.

Well shot video. Of course, with this band, just get out of the way, and let them shine. This song could be uninteresting in another band's hands, but the energy, tightness, and Weller's huge voice, and smart lyrics make it go the distance to great. What a rhythm section. Explosive. That Rickenbacker is really something else. This is the Byrds mixed with the Ramones. The engineer NAILED the drum, snare and bass sound. SO well produced, a good sight better than many other punk rock recordings. Must've been someone REAL good at Polydor who actually got how good this band could be.

So much intensity in this performance...jam bammm!!! Paul, Bruce & Rick..👏👏👏

Absolute amazing track! takes me back to teenage years being rebel and trying to escape everywhere and only finding peace in art class listening to this music when painting..

I loved Down In The Tube Station At Midnight.

How good is this. From a 19 year old. Legend

Since I was 15 (I am nearly 17 now but 16 at the moment) I listen to them everyday best band ever!

These lads made so much sound you'd think there were 5 of 'em.

Holidays in the sun

Have to be the best band ever, nobody can top these boys ever ever ever

For the English people who read this: there are bands from your country (like this one), that are so, so good, that I don't understand why they weren't ultra successful in America. Other great examples: The Cult, Bauhaus, Adam and the Ants, Joy Division, T. Rex, King Crimson...

About the young Idea...The energy on The album is incredible.

The best band ever.

This is another band I’d love to reform just a Album & British Tour . Tickets would go in minutes .

Old men who try to simply replay the glory of their youth really do risk spoiling both the past, and the present... I think Weller in particular is much too clever to ever consider such an anathema - a bunch of elders shouting about A Town Called Malice and Down In a Tube Station?....In the lifetime, since, Weller has given not one indication of being the type of man who's interested in anything that even resembles that, so I don't think so.

Also the S3x pistols as you like to call them were not talentless and had one of the best frontmen in all of rock history and one of the 100 best guitarists of all time according to rolling stone. They only recorded one official album that is still praised as one of the best albums of all time and have had an iconic legacy for decades now and they hold a well deserved place in the rock and roll hall of fame as do the Ramones. And the Jam did?

The jam refresh the parts other bands cannot reach

Rediscovering this again. What a flippin bass line! I can hear Small Faces and Dr Feelgood.

Punk rock my arse! Accomplished musicians all!!

They have influenced many youngsters in Japan; thus some good Japanese bands were born during Showa and Heisei era; The Roosters, Sheena and the Rockets, Boowy, Thee Michelle Gun Elephant, etc.

Bought this single back in high school.And I like their dress style.Suits and ties fantastic. Blows away the sloppiness of today's youth.

Tried to get my hair like that - never quite managed it. Still got Weller's autograph on an old pound note.
