abstract
  • %22Common People%22 is a song by English alternative rock band Pulp, taken from their 1995 studio album Different Class. It was released as a single in May 1995, reaching number two on the UK singles chart. The song is one of the defining tracks of Britpop, and features in the 2003 compilation album, Live Forever: The Rise and Fall of Brit Pop.The song is about those who were perceived by the songwriter as wanting to be %22like common people%22 and who ascribe glamour to poverty. This phenomenon is commonly referred to as slumming or %22class tourism%22. The song was written by the band members Nick Banks, Jarvis Cocker, Candida Doyle, Steve Mackey and Russell Senior. In 2004, a cover version by William Shatner and produced by Ben Folds brought the song to new audiences outside Europe.
