The lyrics after "It blended in with the weather" I have only just found out and this has impressed me even more than the words I already knew. no explanation of how they would know his address though) but it does mean he has no thought of getting back anytime soon.

The sound of an Underground train at the beginning and end of the song was recorded at St John's Wood Station. Finally, and this is speculative and I may very well be wrong in this assumption, but is the London underground not shut at midnight? He heard the crackle of a radio, then the doors hissed closed and the train pulled out of the station and into the dark tunnel. On the back cover was a portrait photograph of Keith Moon who had died a month prior to the single's release. Tension is heightened by a heartbeat audio effect in the left stereo channel at points during the song.Do this with all the vocabulary and, over time, this will help improve all your English skills — reading, writing, speaking and listening.

You could be onto something, in the Seventies the tube closed much earlier but at midnight it would be around the time of the last train, hence more isolated. There's no way they'd lock him in, so the only explaination is that its a crime-scene and his body has not yet been moved. Tony from BelfastNowhere in the song does Weller mention skinheads and he was a great admirer of the origianl skinhead and sudehead movements with it's emphasis on black music and sharp clothes. It wasn’t too far — sometimes he took a taxi — but other times he walked and the streets were empty with strange shadows creeping across between the houses.With the nostalgic sentiment and the overall tone of the song, I think Keane is attempting to express a Portuguese term known as 'saudade', which does not have a direct English translation but roughly means "that which we remember because it is gone. Cause they took the keys, and she'll think it's me" I view this as him stating that the thugs will then go to his house and cause great harm to his wife -- when she hears the door open with the keys, she will think it is her husband but rather it will be a Clockwork Orange. Feelings that may be universal, without necessarily being totally specific to us, or a place, or a time. Maybe we would have come around to recording it later on in the project, but he'd just reached that point of 'Oh bollocks, this isn't working, it's a load of crap.

So it was legitimately at 0000, as the pubs would have chucked out at 2330 (2345 to allow for 15 minutes drinking up time). This sentence feels as if the only thing it wants to convey is their history together, namely, husband and wife. Now it is usually held right after the funeral, but in most celtiic countries the wake is held before the funeral. Originally, Paul Weller had wanted to exclude the song from the All Mod Cons album, [2] on the grounds that the arrangement had not sufficiently developed during the recording sessions.There is in my mind no song that expresses the harsh reality of prejudice and senseless violence so vividly. John nodded at the train guard — he recognised him from the dozens of times he had seen him before but could not remember his name. Despite having a BBC airplay ban due to its "disturbing nature," it became The Jam's second UK Top 20 hit. An overflowing rubbish bin with discarded fast-food wrappers and fizzy-pop cans at the bottom of it. Down in the Tube Station at Midnight" is a single by the Jam, and was the second single from their third album, All Mod Cons.
