    Lyrics
    Living on free food tickets
    Water in the milk
    From a hole in the roof
    Where the rain came through
    What can you do, hmmm?
    Tears from your little sister
    Crying because she doesn't have
    A dress without a patch
    For the party to go
    But you know she'll get by
    'Cause she's living in
    The love of the common people
    Smiles from the heart
    Of a family man
    Daddy's gonna buy you
    A dream to cling to
    Mama's gonna love you
    Just as much as she can
    And she can
    It's a good thing
    You don't have bus fare
    It would fall through the hole
    In your pocket and you'd lose it
    In the snow on the ground
    You got to walk into town
    To find a job
    Tryin' to keep your hands warm
    When the hole in your shoe
    Let the snow come through
    And chill you to the bone
    Somehow you'd better go home
    Where it's warm
    Where you can live in
    The love of the common people
    Smile from the heart
    Of a family man
    Daddy's gonna buy you
    A dream to cling to
    Mama's gonna love you
    And she can
    Living on a dream ain't easy
    But the closer the knit
    The tighter the fit
    And the chills stay away
    'Cause we take 'em in stride
    For family pride
    You know that faith
    Is your foundation
    With a whole lot of love
    And a warm conversation
    But don't forget to pray
    It's makin' it strong
    Where you belong
    And we're living in
    The love of the common people
    Smiles from the heart
    Of a family man
    Daddy's gonna buy you
    A dream to cling to
    Mama's gonna love you
    Just as much as she can
    And she can
    Yes, we're living in
    The love of the common people
    Smile's from the heart
    Of a family man
    Daddy's gonna buy you
    A dream to cling to
    Mama's gonna love you
    Just as much as she can
    Living in the love of the common people
    Smiles from the heart
    Of a family man
    Daddy's gonna buy you
    A dream to cling to
    Mama's gonna love you
    Just as much as she can
    Living in the love of the common people
    Smile's really hard
    On a family man
    Daddy's gonna buy you
    A dream to cling to
    Mama's gonna love you
    Just as much as she can
    And she can

    I used to have posters on my wall of Paul Young but my sister said I wasn't allowed to like him like John Taylor from Duran Duran. She said they were her favourites and I wasn't allowed to interfere. This song reminds me of simpler days shopping at the market, being grateful for what we received in difficult financial times. I received one present that year. I was grateful knowing my father was ill.

      If music can bring people together, cheer them up, then why don’t they play the good stuff in the public square. Inquisitive refugees from Afghanistan might just wonder what this amazing, new sound is! Well, if it, among other old tracks, were a radio staple. Western society really knows how to shout itself in the foot today, what with the grim and angry being let to dominate the arts and entertainments. Why oh why?

      "Love Of The Common People" è stato il PRIMO Singolo di Paul Young, il quale, poi, ne ha "sfornati" altri, uno più bello dell'altro, partecipando ANCHE al P,rogetto musicale del SuperGruppo BandAid, con Bob Geldoff e TANTI ALTRI Cantanti, cantando "Do They Know It's Christmas!?", il cui singolo, trasmesso a rotazione sulle Principali Emittenti Radiofoniche Britanniche, ha contribuito, non poco, alla Raccolta di Fondi per aiutare le Popolazioni dell'Africa decimate dalla carestia!!!!

    So here is an interesting story, my mother passed away when I was in my early 20’s. My mother loved Paul young and I grew up listening to his music. One of her favourite song was (Love of the common people). About a year ago, I was feeling low and upset about something driving in my car and I was in tears. Then suddenly this song popped up on a radio1 station!.To be honest, I had not heard this song on a radio for such a long time. So I was very surprised. As I was listening to it, I started to feel a lot calmer and then I went home and listened to the lyrics properly. It was exactly what I needed.’mamma is going to love you as much as she can’, ‘ faith is your foundation’. It was a message from her to say I am here, I see you, I feel your pain❤️🙏🏾

For nearly four decades, I have wondered what a McLintugh is. I had it narrowed down to a big American car or a nice winter jacket. The question now is: do I win Clot Of The Year, or do I just need my ears syringing?
