is a cunt.
I did like The Jam. But the way Weller just cut the other two off and out of his life when he chose to finish the band showed an early indication of what a cunt he could be. Just frozen out like they never even existed.
Then – after the pretentious Style Council – Weller was feted and sucked up to big during the Britpop hype. And, the ‘anti-rock star’ behaved like one. Booze, powder, women and all that. Nothing wrong with that, but the way Weller used to sneer at the Rock ‘N’ Roll lifestyle also shows a hypocritical cunt.
It appears, his monumental ego never came down from this mid 90s adulation. And, even his closest friends weren’t immune from his cunt side.
The link touches on it. But, he does come across as a cunt….

Remember in my younger years I thought this was very tricky and funny when quizzically saying Constantinople is a very long word and if you can’t spell it your a dunce.

This country has really punched above it’s weight in musical terms. I could mention a load of obvious greats but how about metal? Metallica? No, that’s just a load of shit. Iron Maiden is the real deal! Check out the Seventh Son of a Seventh Son album and listen to it all the way through. A classic British concept album. A 1988 classic. Paul Weller… who?

Agree about Maiden and Metallica? Metallica are shit.

Weller’s ‘political’ material was nearly as bad and as preachy as Bonio and U2.
Walls Come Tumbling Down, Come To Milton Keynes, Money Go Round, The Lodgers.
Yapping on about Maggie and the working class, when he lives in a swanky pad and has a pop star’s bank account. See also that cunt Billy Bragg
