Paul Weller has never been a man to mince his words, but the ex-Jam frontman found that even the pithiest of insults wouldn't suffice when it came to his arch nemesis Sting. Weller truly crossed the line from Mod renegade to tramp, when he "gobbed" on a picture of Sting at the Royal Albert Hall- apparently the words "f***ing t***" weren't enough to convey his hatred of the Police frontman.
This charming display prompted the Mirror to highlight the "vitriolic hate campaign" Weller has been orchestrating against Sting, which includes him telling "a magazine" that "he's a f***ing horrible man. Not my cup of tea at all. F***ing rubbish." They have ever more evidence to back up their character assassination of the Gob father (ho ho): Weller has said in previous interviews that he'd rather eat his own bad-word-for-feces than duet with James Blunt, told Bob Geldof to "f*** off and responded to the news that the late Freddie Mercury once wanted to bring ballet to the working classes with the words, "what a c**t". Is anyone else starting to really like Paul Weller?

Weller is awsome. Down in the Tube Station at Midnight just may be the saddest song ever written.
On the other hand it was fun seeing Weller routinely mocked for being a hippie too.

No one sneered likeWeller in the olden days. "Eton Rifles" and such. I thought he had mellowed but obviously not too much

As we age & learn, some of us angry young men just get angrier & angrier & ...
