‘OOH
DO
U
FINK
U
R’
is
A
gloriously
sunny,
optimistic
and
defiant
Motown
and
‘60’s
R&B
influenced
stomper
drawing
on
Suggs
and
Weller’s
upbringing
in
Britain’s
1970’s
comprehensive
school
system
in
London
and
Woking
respectively.
Having
known
each
other
on-and-off
over
the
last
four
decades,
the
seeds
of
this
collaboration
emerged
in
2019
when
Weller
joined
Suggs
on
his
Radio
Four
series
‘Love
Letters
To
London’
to
talk
about
an
ever
changing
Soho.
As
the
world
subsequently
went
into
lockdown
in
2020,
the
pair
started
chatting
more
and
more
frequently
about
music,
clothes
and
football,
eventually
exchanging
half-finished
songs,
demos
and
sketches
of
lyrics.
With
its
working
class
aesthetic,
Motown
influenced
stomp,
and
uplifting
brass,
it’s
an
intuitive
collaboration
that
sits
neatly
as
a
welcome
addition
to
both
men’s
great
songbooks.
