John William "Paul" Weller, Jr. (born 25 May 1958) is an English singer, songwriter and musician. Weller achieved fame with the punk rock band The Jam (1976–82). He had further success pursuing a blue-eyed soul style of music with The Style Council (1983–89), before establishing himself as a solo artist in 1991.
Despite widespread critical recognition as a singer, lyricist and guitarist, Weller has remained a national rather than an international star, and much of his songwriting is rooted in British culture. He is also the principal figure of the 1970s and 1980s mod revival, and is often referred to as The Modfather.
The Daily Telegraph has said of Weller: "Apart from David Bowie, it’s hard to think of any British solo artist who’s had as varied, long-lasting and determinedly forward-looking a career." The BBC described Weller in 2007 as "one of the most revered music writers and performers of the past 30 years". He has received four Brit Awards—winning the award for Best British Male twice, and the 2006 Brit Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music.

Paul Weller (born 3 April 1959) is an Australian politician and the Nationals member for Rodney in the Victorian Legislative Assembly from 2006 to 2014.
Weller won pre-selection for Rodney after the retirement of Noel Maughan. Despite unfavourable preferences from the Labor Party, Weller won 40% of the primary vote and 54% of the two-party-preferred vote against the Liberal candidate.
In February 2014, he was elected Deputy Speaker of the Legislative Assembly under Christine Fyffe. His seat was abolished before the 2014 election and he contested the Legislative Council seat of Northern Victoria in the unwinnable fourth position on the Coalition ticket.

Paul Weller is Paul Weller's first solo album, released in 1992.
After disbanding The Style Council and leaving label Polydor in 1989, Weller formed The Paul Weller Movement in 1990, releasing a single, Into Tomorrow, on his own Freedom High record label, in October 1991. Its success - reaching #36 in the UK chart - led to Weller being offered a new record deal with Go! Discs, and the resulting album was released on 1 September 1992, reaching #8 on the UK album chart.
Before the UK-edition of the album, it had already been released in Japan on 29 April 1992. The track listing differs from subsequent releases, and the running order is altered. The track New Thing (a different recording of Here's A New Thing from the Into Tomorrow single) was replaced by The Strange Museum on all other versions. Until 2009 New Thing was unique to this release.
In addition to Into Tomorrow, included on the album, two further singles were released from the album - Uh Huh Oh Yeh, on 15 August 1992, reaching #18, and Above The Clouds on 10 October 1992, reaching #47.

"I think people are just really disappointed, disappointed with Blair as well, who's just like Bush's lapdog. I think everyone's just disillusioned with politics in our country, and it must be the same in your country."
"I think politicians are so far out of step with what people really want."
"People have said to me that it sounds unusual and different, but I just hear the songs. That's all I'm really interested in. Writing good songs and making them sound as fresh and timeless as possible. You know, if you stumble on something new along the way that's great. But I'm not into new sounds just for the sake of it. I'm a songwriter."
"To me, there's this false veneer of democracy - I suppose we have our say and our votes and all that, but to no avail really. I mean, they made their minds up that they wanted to march into someone else's country, and they're going to do it, with their agendas, and that's that. There were millions of people out on the streets in America and all over the world last year, and it didn't make any difference."
"I still love you, too,"
"It's Thursday evening in Toronto -- I had to actually ask the drummer -- but for us, it's Friday night."
"It was a very formative time for me when I was getting into music. It was the year of the concept album and there were so many fantastic singles."
"I was only 21. I was just trying to take everyday subjects and write about things other people weren't writing about - working-class life and culture."
"I've not had Botox, no."
"I get labelled as just being about one thing, but there's lots of layers to what I do."
"Being a musician is a noble profession."
"I want to hear as much music as I possibly can before I leave this mortal coil but it's impossible to hear it all because there's so much of it."
"Nothing wrong with pop!"
"Everyone gets frustrated and aggressive, and I'd sooner take my aggression out on a guitar than on a person."

The Poacher
by: Paul WellerWas fresh and bright and early
I went towards the river
But nothing still has altered just the seasons ring a change
There stood this old timer
For all the world's first poacher
His mind upon his tackle
And these words upon his mind:
Bring me fish with eyes of jewels
And mirrors on their bodies
Bring them strong and bring them bigger
Than a newborn child
Well I've no use for riches
And I've no use for power
And I've no use for a broken heart
I'll let this world go by
There stood this old timer
For all the world's first poacher
His mind upon his tackle
And these words upon his mind:
Bring me fish with eyes of jewels
And mirrors on their bodies
Bring them strong and bring them bigger
