"Precious" is a song composed by Paul Weller and performed by the British band The Jam.
Details
It appeared on The Jam's 1982 album, The Gift, and also as a double A-side single along with "Town Called Malice". It reached number one in the UK Singles Chart, although the song received much less airplay than "Town Called Malice". It was a departure for the band from their punk and mod roots, involving a funk-like sound that the band had not previously explored. Uncut described the track as "hypnotically itchy punk-funk". Some fans and critics have noticed the song contains a number of similarities to "Papa's Got a Brand New Pigbag", which was a relatively new release itself at the time. Weller himself was to admit in 1998 he had used that song as part of the inspiration for "Precious".
