must admit when I flipped my copy of going underground my reaction as a 14 yr old was what is this shite, but I was wrong its brilliant, as my 50 yr old self realises.
I sat alone with the dreams of children Weeping willows and tall dark building, and I've caught a fashion from the dreams of children But woke up sweating to this modern nightmare, and I was alone, no one was there I was alone, no one was there I caught a glimpse from the dreams of children I got a feeling of optimism But woke up to a grey and lonely picture The streets below left me feeling dirty, and I was alone, no one was there I was alone, no one was there Something's gonna crack on your dreams tonight You will crack on your dreams tonight You are going to crack on your dreams tonight You will crack on your dreams tonight Something's going to crack up your dreams tonight You will crack on your dreams tonight I fell in love with the dreams of children I saw a vision of all the happy days I've caught a fashion from the dreams of children But woke up sweating from this modern nightmare, and I was alone, no one was there I was alone, no one was there Something's gonna crack on your dreams tonight You will crack on your dreams tonight PAUL WELLER
Beatles, Kinks and Jam probably going to have put on my tombstone.
Great song by the best band ever 😎🎸👍🎶
Double A side straight in at no.1, what a buzz it was !
This song is infectious. You can't play it only once.
No shit i have the single repeat after repeat i hit that needle on that single ....youtube as well
Very few of their choons are playable once anymore than one can eat a single chip/crisp (dep. of which side of the pond one lives).
@@stringlarson1247 Agreed. And it's chips for this Yank.
Only 38k views in ten years - geez
I been listening since it came out, still listening 🎶, your right!!
what a genius weller is! loved all their albums too, powerful, dynamic, and vibrant. real feel good music..
It always bothered me that this didn't get as much recognition amongst many that Going Underground did. This is just as good.
I met Bruce foxten ]
What another fantastic Jam song. Atmospheric
This is one of the songs we appreciate even more when ya 50 eh!?
the piccolo trumpet part, is awesome.
The Jam at the height of their powers.
The holy trinity at their brilliant best!!!
Beatlesesque, Strawberry Fields, this is just as good.
My favourite jam song
Hard hitting even now!
Haven't seen this vid since it was in the charts...
the jam rule even today......

Never underestimate a jam b side, look at Liza Radley .👌😎
Shot on Marylands Adventure Playground in Kilburn
I love Bruce flippin' everyone off at 2:22.
Very underrated song even by Jam fans
I sat alone with the dreams of children
Weeping willows and tall dark building, and
I've caught a fashion from the dreams of children
But woke up sweating to this modern nightmare, and
I was alone, no one was there
I was alone, no one was there
I caught a glimpse from the dreams of children
I got a feeling of optimism
But woke up to a grey and lonely picture
The streets below left me feeling dirty, and
I was alone, no one was there
I was alone, no one was there
Something's gonna crack on your dreams tonight
You will crack on your dreams tonight
You are going to crack on your dreams tonight
You will crack on your dreams tonight
Something's going to crack up your dreams tonight
You will crack on your dreams tonight
I fell in love with the dreams of children
I saw a vision of all the happy days
I've caught a fashion from the dreams of children
But woke up sweating from this modern nightmare, and
I was alone, no one was there
I was alone, no one was there
Something's gonna crack on your dreams tonight
You will crack on your dreams tonight

I like the invisible microphone. 😉
Pop art Mod! 🎯
Brilliant
Back when I first saw this vid in '83 or so, that is the first thing we all noticed...
Cheers!
Great bass line
FAB :)
Bought this single with the free Down in the Tubestation live ep
I think they filmed this at the same time as Going Underground
he just tooked his scarf inside his jacket.
Britain's greatest ever band,fire ans skill ❤
Remember when they called the clash the only band that matters? I always liked The Jam a lot more..
They were better than the clash
@@sheilamcgowan7186
Agreed. Way better.
Is it true that the back-masked samples are from "Thick as Thieves"?
Yes, I believe it was.
haha really, awesome!
2:21 Bruce in the background giving the finger!
Thanks.

He's not flipping the bird. I remember watching the video as a kid which was much clearer, he is waving goodbye as the door closes on him
1980
The guy who directed Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles directed this video.
