Editing Different Class (section)

==Background and release==
The album was released in the UK at the height of [[Britpop]]. It followed from the success of their breakthrough album ''[[His 'n' Hers]]'' the previous year. Two of the singles on the album – "[[Common People]]" (which reached number two on the [[UK Singles Chart]]) and "[[Disco 2000 (song)|Disco 2000]]" (which reached number seven) – were especially notable, and helped propel Pulp to nationwide fame. A "deluxe edition" of ''Different Class'' was released on 11 September 2006. It contains a second disc of [[B-sides]], demos and rarities.

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.<ref>{{Cite episode |title=Different Class |series=Classic Albums of the 90s |first=Steve (host) |last=Lamacq |author-link=Steve Lamacq |network=[[BBC Radio 1]] |location=London |date=8 February 1999 |transcript=The Different Class Story |transcript-url=http://www.acrylicafternoons.com/pulp.html}}</ref> A message on the back of the record also references this idea:
