Coming from a Hip Hop world, your ears are trained to find that dope part, and put it on repeat and leave it going. But rock songwriting from this era was all about dynamics and having contrast. The reason that the verse section you like so much can hit as hard as it does, is because the chorus lulls you into relaxing, before smacking you in the head again. Dynamics, contrast, light and dark, loud and quiet, etc…

As the story goes, Pete (Townsend, lead guitarist and musical genius) was out drinking with 2 members of the Sex Pistols, got into a fight, got thrown out, passed out in a "Soho Doorway", woke up when a cop found him and recognized who he was, and told him he could go home if he could just walk away. That intro that bugged Ryan so much was in there because Pete had just discovered the electronic synthesizer and loved doing cool stuff on it (As in Baba O'Reily).

@calkelpdiver 10 ай бұрын
Townsend had used synthesizers a lot before the Who Are You album came out in 1978. He used them on Tommy, Quadrophenia, and Who's Next in late 60's/early 70's. For Baba O'Reilly it was a Lowrey Berkshire Deluxe TBO-1 model organ, which sounded like a Moog synthesizer. This album is Keith Moon's last before he passed away. Some of his best drumming is on "Who are You" the song itself.

Wow a lot to unpack from that reaction. As a white early 60's aged guy raised on classic rock I did enjoy the reaction gentlemen. I most enjoyed your comments on how you grew up and the differences we all experience in music, life, etc. I think when music was released (the year) is very important in regards to your experience hearing it. The tunes stay the same forever. The times we live in are constantly changing. The who released this LP twelve days before my 18th birthday. This Who album was ok in my book back then but not like most of the iconic albums before it. As a song "Who Are You" was an absolute mind blower back then. An absolute masterpiece that grabbed you and rocked your ass hard. For all of us back then we didn't know what was about to happen to the band. Less than 30 days after this album was released Keith Moon was dead. In my opinion it was the end of The Who I had grown up with. Unlike Led Zeppelin who called it quits just after John Bonham passed just two years later. The Who kept playing. Here's an rock folklore fact. Take a look at the cover of the Who Are You album. Find Keith Moon and see what's printed on the chair he's sitting on. Crazy shit. Keith's drumming is legendary. One last note on this song which carries heavy weight with me is how this song inspired someone very special and dear in my life back in the early 90's. That person had a real serious problem with drugs & alcohol. One day while driving in their car the "Who Are You" tune started playing on their radio. It made them really think about who they really were. So much so that they decided right then and there they were going to change their life. So they got help and completely beat all their addictions and went on to be a wonderful parent and human being still to this day. RIP Keith & John 🙏🩶

This song is based on a day in the life of Pete Townshend. It began with a very long meeting dealing with royalties for his songs: "Eleven hours in the Tin Pan, God, there's got to be another way." The "Tin Pan" he is referring to is "Tin Pan Alley" which is the name given to the collection of New York City-centered music publishers and songwriters who dominated the popular music of the United States. After this excruciating meeting he received a large check for royalties, left and went to a bar and got completely drunk. In that bar he encountered Paul Cook and Steve Jones of The Sex Pistols, who thought very highly of Pete for paving the way for Punk rock music. Townshend was conflicted because he feared The Who had sold out, and seeing The Sex Pistols, who were icons of rebellion, exasperated him even more. Pete left that bar and passed out in a random doorway in Soho (a part of New York). A policeman recognized him ("A policeman knew my name") and being kind, woke him and and told him, "You can go sleep at home tonight (instead of a jail cell), if you can get up and walk away." Pete's response: "Who the f--k are you?"

As someone told me years ago, and it has become truer the more I hear them, the Who is a band who all play a song of solos but have such great control, it ends up with a rythmn

The intro is like their earlier '60's British Invasion sound then it crashes into late '70's hard rock perfection, hard rock in that era had a great sense of groove and cadence, the '80's came and kind of streamlined that out with more 4/4 style rock, this coming in late '78 became like a high water mark for '70s rock.

If it weren't for that "Who are you" bit, the song wouldn't be fly at all 😂 You need that bit for the contrast.

Well said guys. I'm mexican and I actually didn't even start listening to mexican music till these past two years or so. I found yall back when you covered Logic however long ago but you've exposed me to so much music and got me into country and rock and you've made me realize that people that look like us can still enjoy those genres of music. Thanks so much for all you guys do. Keep it up!

The drumming on this is fireee. That last fill that George loved hit harder cause he played it in triplets, which is another trick to play with the rhythm without changing the tempo, next to going in half time. Anyway, guys, check out Dirty Loops - Rock You. These dudes are heavily cosigned by QUINCY JONES, shit's funky and groovy as hell.

A couple things to remember about Pete Townshend’s: 1) So many of his songs - from the album Tommy in 1969, onwards - have a layer of subtext in regard to Meher Baba, his guru. I don’t fully understand it, but that whole “my heart is an open cup / I only feel right on my knees” part is the seeker/spiritual aspect of this song. 2) The other thing is that Townshend has always seen his songwriting as something he does in service to others: to the audience, he gives a reflection of themselves…to Daltrey, he gives him a vocal part to sound tough….to Entwistle, room enough for him to maneuver…to Moon, the beginnings of a drum part got him to let loose on.

I think what you have to realize is that white kids in the 60’s and 70’s grew up with Motown. We knew Smokey, and The Temptations, Earth Wind and Fire etc. We recognized that rock music was born out of R&B. So when we heard the rhythm and funk of songs like this, we weren’t surprised. In fact, we expected it

The contrast between the groove and the chorus is what makes this song so delicious imho. The groove is a reward for those willing to give the song a chance. This song was shown to me as an example of delayed gratification. Those who can't hang get nothing but a misunderstanding of the Who, are you, who who, whowho 😀 Great reaction guys, thanks for all the fun!!

The WHO were master songwriters. The tag aka the cornball part is essential. Besides being catchy and becoming its own groove later in the song when combined with a beat and the lead vocals, it creates a sense of tension and contrast to make you yearn for the section you guys love so much aka the fly part. Understand, guys of this caliber are very aware of what they are doing. Love your vids gents! Keep crushing

The who kicked all the ass all the time. Great seeing you guys dig this. Ten of us jumped in a conversion van in 1980/81 when we were barely old enough to drive, lied to our parents about spending the night at each others house for the weekend, drove from Miami to Orlando snuck into the concert to see the who. Joan Jett and the B-52s opened.
