Our Favourite Shop is the second album from the band The Style Council. The majority of the album's material was released (with different sequencing and packaged in an entirely different cover design) in the USA as Internationalists by Geffen Records. Lyrical targets include racism, excessive consumerism, the effects of self-serving governments, the suicide of one of Weller's friends and what the band saw as an exasperating lack of opposition to the status quo.

- Our Favourite Shop is the second album from the band The Style Council. The majority of the album's material was released (with different sequencing and packaged in an entirely different cover design) in the USA as Internationalists by Geffen Records. Lyrical targets include racism, excessive consumerism, the effects of self-serving governments, the suicide of one of Weller's friends and what the band saw as an exasperating lack of opposition to the status quo. All of this pessimism is countered with an overarching sense of hope and delight that alternatives do actually exist -- if only they can be seen. The album contained the Top 10 singles "Shout To The Top", which reached #7 in the UK, and "Walls Come Tumbling Down!", which reached #6 in the UK. The US version titled "Internationalists was also available as a Columbia Record & Tape House selection for the issue year 1985. The contained musical styles are also far-ranging. Soul, rap, jazz and rock stylings all occur on the album.
- Our Favourite Shop è il secondo album del gruppo degli Style Council. La maggior parte del materiale in esso contenuto è uscito sul mercato statunitense con il titolo di Internationalists per l'etichetta Geffen, con copertina diversa e differente ordine dei brani. I testi delle canzoni toccano argomenti come il razzismo, il consumismo smodato, le conseguenze dei governi asserviti solo ai propri interessi, la mancanza di spinta a modificare lo status quo, il suicidio di uno degli amici di Paul Weller. I toni pessimistici sono però controbilanciati da un sovrastante senso di speranza e di gioia per il fatto che le alternative esistono, se solo si desidera vederle. Gli stili musicali di riferimento dell'album variano molto: si va dal soul, al rap, al jazz fino al rock.
