How Squeeze Wrote The Perfect Song (Up The Junction)

Up The Junction by Squeeze was an unlikely hit for Glenn Tilbrook and Chris Difford. The song has no chorus, for starters: something almost unheard of for a pop song in the 70s. Yet, it reached number 2 in the UK charts and stands as an excellent example of songwriting, capturing working class life in London. This video explores how Tilbrook and Difford crafted Up The Junction. ❤️❤️❤️SUPPORT ME❤️❤️❤️ ❤️If you think this video was worth $3, join my Patreon to support me as a creator.
