Although it did not appear on any of the band's studio albums, it reached number 4 in the UK Singles Chart.[1] The song was named after the Colin MacInnes novel of the same name. The book was one of songwriter Paul Weller's favourites, being chosen by him when he appeared on Desert Island Discs.[2] Tales from the Riverbank appeared as the B-side. The band's record company Polydor later stated that they believed Tales from the Riverbank should have been released as the A-side. The video to the song was filmed in the vicinity of Nomis studios, Shepherd's Bush.[3]The song also appeared on the soundtrack for the 1997 film Grosse Pointe Blank.[4] References1. ^{{cite book| first= David| last= Roberts| year= 2006| title= British Hit Singles & Albums| edition= 19th| publisher= Guinness World Records Limited | location= London| isbn= 1-904994-10-5| page= 277}} 2. ^{{cite web |author= |url=http://www.mojo4music.com/blog/2007/12/paul_wellers_desert_island_dis.html |title=Paul Weller's Desert Island Discs |work=MOJO |year= |accessdate=29 June 2011}} 3. ^That's Entertainment: My Life in The Jam pp. 151-152 4. ^[https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119229/soundtrack IMDB.com: Grosse Pointe Blank] External links
