The fifth studio album by the English rock band, originally released in October 1995. The inspiration for the title came to frontman Jarvis Cocker in Smashing, a club night that ran during the early 1990s in Eve's Club on Regent Street in London. Cocker had a friend who used the phrase 'different class' to describe something that was 'in a class of its own'. Cocker liked the double meaning, with its allusions to the British social class system, which was a theme of some of the songs on the album.

ReviewsIncluded in Rolling Stone's "Essential Recordings of the 90's.", "The genius of “Common People” is the way its fist-punch chorus and frantic surge rouses unity and release even as its socially acerbic lyric speaks of division and tension.", Ranked #3 on Spin's List of the "20 Best Albums of '96.", 9 (out of 10) - "...Jarvis Cocker is the most observant, quotable British lyricist since Morrissey and Neil Tennant....Pulp elevate themselves to a level...supportive of Cocker's minutely detailed narratives and excessively theatrical delivery. The new-wave arrangements stay focused...", Ranked #46 in Q's "100 Greatest British Albums", Included in Q's 50 Best Albums of 1995., "...A Vivacious Extravaganza of Mod, Melodramatic Fun...", Ranked #23 in Q's "Best 50 Albums of Q's Lifetime", Ranked #4 in Q Magazine's "10 Essential Reissues of 2006.", 4 Stars (out of 5) - "...the range of DIFFERENT CLASS is impressive: `Live Bed Show' is the sort of brooding ballad Nick Cave might favour...tracks such as this and `Feelings Called Love,' render more redundant than ever the view of Pulp as kitsch...", Included in Q Magazine's "90 Best Albums of the 1990s.", 5 stars out of 5 -- "Middle-class snobbery, the beauty and banality of rave and the endless cycle of hedonistic desperation are all grist to the tragicomic mill.", Ranked #39 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "This was a bigger and brighter work, with brilliantly drawn, era-defining vignettes...", 4 Stars Out of 5 -- "An Album That Deserved Its Huge Success. It Defined the Mood of the Day.", 4 Stars (out of 5) - "...a brilliant, eccentric, irresistible pop album about fucking and fucking up...", Tied for #1 on Melody Maker's List of 1995's `Albums of the Year.', Bloody Essential - "...at once richly evocative of a quintessentially English pop past and yet as irreducible, idiosyncratic and NOW! as...The Smiths in their heyday. Pulp, in fact, are The Smiths if they hadn't been so appallingly disco-phobic...", Ranked #7 in NME's `Top 50 Albums Of The Year' for 1995 - "...A call to arms for the misfits and the misunderstood...", Ranked #10 in the Village Voice's 1996 Pazz & Jop Critics' Poll., Ranked #1 in Spin Magazine's "90 Greatest Albums of the '90s."
