I can't think of anyone who deserves to be in Hall of Fame before Paul Weller. Love him or hate him he has been making critical acclaimed albums
for 40 years and his a brilliant songwriter and musician.

An unmatched carear over 40 years,,, If Weller is not in then it is a daming indictment on the whole place!

No way
He is nothing special
His music sounds like a million similar bands.

The man is a legend! The fact that he hasn't even been considered is just one more reason the Hall of Fame is utter crap. And anyone who says he is not innovative clearly has never listened to his solo stuff from the last 15 years or The Style Council. He should be held up with the likes of Paul McCartney, David Bowie, etc...Weller forever!

Embarrassing Paul Weller hasn't been nominated. Seriously talented song writer and musician over the last 40 years plus. Just plain silly which make the rock and roll hall of fame a joke.

It's beyond a disgrace that garbage bands like Journey, Cheap Trick and Def Leppard, which pandered to the mediocre tastes of the seething masses is in the Hall but a musical visionary like Paul Weller is not. What a joke.

Paul Weller the man is a music genius and he should be in the rock n roll hall of fame since the 2000s his gave the public over 40 years of great music from modern/soul/classical/britpop and still writes his own music
Living legend I give you The Modfather

That he isn't included says more about the HOF than it does about him. Year after year, generic crap artists are invited. The Hall has no credability. I'm with these guys (copied and pasted from AI).

Sex Pistols (2006): Referred to the museum as a "piss stain" and refused to attend their induction, calling it a "mausoleum".

Ozzy Osbourne (2006): Before Black Sabbath was inducted, he demanded they be removed from the ballot, calling the honor "meaningless".

Steve Miller (2016): Ranted against the institution after his induction, calling it "unpleasant" and criticizing the lack of female representation and the business side of the event.

Neil Young (1997): Skipped the Buffalo Springfield induction, criticizing the event as a televised "cheap awards show".

Dire Straits (2018): Mark Knopfler refused to attend.

Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull): Dismissed the institution, suggesting it is more about "Americana" than rock.

What a load of crap how is someone ten times more talented and had a far better career than say some one from his generation Billy Idol that Paul Weller is not at least nominated. The Jam The Style Council Solo. Just plain stupidity no wonder people think the rock and roll hall of fame is complete shite.
