Excellent tune! Graham Maby’s bass is just pounding throughout!

That guy has some of the best bass tone ever. Cuts right through the mix.

One of THE best introductory albums ever produced - JOE JACKSON, LOOK SHARP

Joe Jackson, when punk finally had matured into something we wanted to hear!

One of our greatest song writers

Brilliant time for music , absolutely loved it

That period of music transitioning from the 70s to 80s had its own brief unique style, love it.

One of my favorite albums! Thank God for my dad's taste in music! Will always remember the first time hearing "Look Sharp" and that album cover. The drummer, bass player, and Joe Jackson's style! Ecstacy!

Joe Jackson has always been ahead of his time

one of the most underrated musicians ...

my fav song this when i was younger i was so nosey and into everry ones bussiness my nickname was sunday paper

Can't believe 40 years are gone...

Oh yeah I love this song buddy

dat bassline... pure poetry

Send me back in time so I can see this show.

Look Sharp is one heck of an album.

Classic album I love Sunday Papers I’m from New York City Joe Jackson he’s the man I’ll be 43 on Monday the bassline and the sarcastic lyrics and the key tar kicks ass

Blew away a room full of karaoke people the other night by wearing an outfit close to what Joe wore for the Look Sharp! album cover and singing this. I wish I had recorded it. Classic. Vital. Backbone. Joe's songs give you all this.

BRILLIANT!! Thanks for sharing. Saw Joe and his band at Ashbury Park, New Jersey on August 1980. One of the best live acts of the punk era. I also saw The Ramones the night before at another venue in Ashbury Park. Needless to say, a memorable weekend 😑😎🤯

Absolutely 💯 Brilliant 👏 🎶 🎵

He puts on a great live show.

Oh my goodness! I lived in the same road as you when we were kids 😮 happy memories 😊

Look sharp is a awesome album still listening at 52

First time listening and it sounds as good today as it did in the 80s

Young Joe at his best. Great show.

"They wouldn't print it if if wasn't true"...1980. This guy is a genius. A musical genius, a song writing genius. London 2020, I can assure you that the truth stays safe on Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, Wed.. Well.. we're f@ckd.....

I love this guy and his Sunday Papers lots of talent for sure

Crazy this over 30 years old!! I was a Junior in HS!! wish I was a teenager again back then though. Everything sucks now!!!!

Love this tune!

The lyrics are spot on!!! I miss the Sunday paper!!!!

Mother doesn't go out anymore Just sits at home and rolls her spastic eyes But every weekend through the door Come words of wisdom from the world outside If you want to know 'bout the bishop and the actress If you want to know how to be a star If you want to know 'bout the stains on the mattress You can read it in the Sunday papers Sunday papers Mother's wheelchair stays out in the hall Why should she go out when the TV's on? Whatever moves beyond these walls She'll know the facts when Sunday comes along If you want to know 'bout the mad punk rockers* If you want to know how to play guitar If you want to know 'bout any other suckers You can read it in the Sunday papers Read it in the Sunday papers Sunday papers, don't ask no questions Sunday papers, don't get no lies Sunday papers, don't raise objections Sunday papers, ain't got no eyes Brother's headin' that way now, I guess He just read somethin', made his face turn blue Well I got nothin' 'gainst the press They wouldn't print it if it wasn't true If you want to know 'bout the gay politician (oh yeah!) If you want to know how to drive your car If you want to know 'bout the new sex position You can read it in the Sunday papers Read it in the Sunday papers Sunday papers, don't ask no questions Sunday papers, don't get no lies Sunday papers, don't raise objections Sunday papers, ain't got no eyes Sunday papers, don't ask no questions Sunday papers, don't get no lies Sunday papers, don't raise objections Sunday papers, ain't got no eyes Read all about it, Sunday papers Get your Sunday paper, get your Sunday paper, get your

Simply awesome. I will be seeing him live for the first time next Friday the 30th!

A pure genius. I even have the soundtrack album Joe made for the movie "Mike's Murder", with Debra Winger and Jack Lemmon. That is how much of a fan I am. I have all the albums and they are still in the plastic sleeves. I just used a pin to open them way back when. The early albums should be collectors items.

Some Punk Rock/New Wave and Ska. A very good mix by Joe Jackson and his backing band.

Brilliant!!! Brilliant!!! Brilliant!!! Brilliant!!! Brilliant!!!

First heard Is She Really Going Out w Him in 79 on my parents car radio in Hartselle Alabama. He w other acts at the time changed my life. Thx Joe!!

Still a great song after all these years

Grew up on Joe Jackson music its so nice hearing it again and watching this on KZfaq Yes we had MTV in the 80s. But i dont ever remember them airing any of his performances or videos if he made any ? I always thought his music and lyrics were brilliant for the time this was the “New Wave” music in the day

Awesome stuff... & people forget that even 35yrs on, it's still the same; BS Papers everywhere (politicians too)

great rock voice!

Joe Jackson rocks and I'm American. NOT offended.

OMG....IT'S SO GOOD

I love you JOE!

Joe is still too cool 4 school!

Great Great LP and great performance!

his voice is literally addicting

love that hes got a suit on

WOW JOE ROCKS!

Those were the day's. Love it!!!

Love it! Avant Garde satire of the defunct News of the World - in the 1980's +Joe Jackson - The irony + Leon Gettler

It’s just now occurring to me that Joe was way more interesting than I ever gave him credit for.

GREAT TO LISTEN TO, GREATER TO SEE.

Great band

What a bassline ? lovely stuff gove-na!

Who would of thought a song Sunday paper would be a very song and music 🎵

Freaking awesome!

Great version of this song still very current

Sunday papers on sunday!

More relevant than ever

Wasn’t punk... but it was... wasn’t reggae... but it was.... wasn’t top 40..... but it was. Talk about a band with a hardon for defying genres. Song writing at its best right here.

Great song!

He was just on tour, in fact. Never really stopped.

JOE AT Vancouver Expo' 86 Legend.

oh , in those days when the paper was relevant .

It appears Joe's stage act was a blast

I still have my vinyl and a cool smaller vinyl, complete with Look Sharp pin

how cool was this...and" I'm the man" (they so jam on that)..what a great show!

Bass !

Bass !! Bass !! Bass !!

Look Sharp!!!

I always think todays headline is yesterdays news I always think todays outcry is yesterdays views

Wonderfull

They wouldn't print it if it wasn't true!

MELODICA...... HUGE W!

luv it-lost my hair around that time too-lol!! peace - happy new year 2015

Always loved this tune. It's very nasty and a bit venomous.

LOL. for a while I thought the lyrics were the "Funny Papers" in reference to the comics section. Joe rocks...

Looks like MTV classic VJ, Martha Quinn on the front row.

brilliantly caustic, this one coulda been written by costello

yeah!!!!

Fender Love!

Awesome!!!

Wtf happened to VH1 Classic and fantastic programming as this. I loved watching this channel and then as with all rock related television stations it goes away.

why should she go out, when the TV's on. loved joe since the beginning. WHERE is he. need a nostalgia tour. ALTHOUGH, his songs are timeless. still make sense today.

with a little practice, that bass player might be pretty good someday........

Génial!!!

yes Brilliant!

3:39 took one off the noggin and stared the fool down like the boss
