The Happy Mondays are one of my favorite bands (seriously) but their videos (and some of their records) were usually woefully thrown together affairs: the band miming lazily while they stand in front of a wall. This one is probably the closest that they came to actually trying. Is there even a reference to Godard’s Two or Three Things I Know About Her? Maybe not.

two or three things

The song is one of their best too. Stay tuned for more Mondays posts.

I think that The Jam are who The Clash had in mind when they sang that line about the new groups in Burton suits turning rebellion into money in White Man in Hammersmith Palais, but they were a great singles act. I’ve heard good things about Paul Weller’s solo material but I’ve never heard a note of it.
