[@robthornton6288]

They are probably THE best live rock band of all time. You're right about them experimenting with sounds, Pete Townshend was probably the first lead guitarist to use feedback on stage and was heavily into the technology of synthesizers and amps so understood how to get the best out of sounds, in the studio, but also live. You will often see him adjusting the settings of not only his guitar, but his amps.

[@habcats]

Raw emotion. A Fucking masterpiece! I’ve heard this song thousands of times and it always give me goosebumps

[@thegreypigeon]

These guys were leaders from the mid 60's... great musicianship .. try wont get fooled again. by this band

[@spadams999]

Yes - listen to Won't Get Fooled Again! It contains the best scream in rock music ever. After that, Pinball Wizard.

[@btXplosion]

Another great song off this album to listen to next is The Real Me. There is an excellent groove with John Entwistle’s bass and Keith Moons drums.

[@surlechapeau]

Bro's, you'll love their "Won't Get Fooled Again", "Baba O'Riley" and "Who Are You". Huge catalog. The big three in rock, imo: The Who, Led Zeppelin and The Rolling Stones, vocals- Roger Daltrey, Robert Plant and Mick Jagger.

[@jimdavis8864]

Young Man Blues (live)

[@dr.juerdotitsgo5119]

Wow, no Beatles? ☺Although my absolute favorite are The Kinks.

[@LA-fz5qw]

When I saw them in 94 it was a hot July day and it absolutely poured on us in the afternoon torrential afternoon thunderstorms in the Northeast. They change the Setlist around in the first song they played when they came out was this song and it was amazing.

[@cwilliamrose]

This song is from the rock opera 'Quadrophenia'. You should probably listen to the entire album start to finish to put the pieces of the story into context.

[@OzarkTroutBum]

See the movie if you can find it. Sting from the Police as as Ace Face.

[@Wolverines77]

This is the one song that can completely survive being pulled out of the story line and live off its own merits. It is a beautiful love song that I actually used at my wedding party (with complete blessings from my wife). Our families were mildly shocked that we included this in our song list as well as "Thank You" by Led Zeppelin...

[@doplinger1]

I love the play on words between “reign” and “rain”.- very different words yet can almost be interchanged here in this song.

[@guidosarducci]

'rain ON me' or 'reign o'er me' I LOVE it...........

[@T3rratubby]

Just as an aside. UNKLE (James Lavelle) with Ian Brown (Stone Roses) did the same 'Reign' thing. Used in Formula 1 video game but that's worth a listen.

[@theblackcat5416]

The Who journey begins !!! "Baba O'Reilly", "Won't Get Fooled Again", "Who Are You"...... the list goes on and on !!! Great job guys !!! ✌❤🌻😷🎶

[@MrBaiter65]

This album is a masterpiece!!! Do yourselves a favor and listen to this album from start to finish, even if it is on "your own time." Trust me, you won't regret it!

[@bettykemp7122]

I think it’s “the sweat of lovers laying in the fields”

[@remedy9648]

Dude you’re young and there’s tons of time to pick it up again. Knowing piano opens the doors to all other instruments and I bet it’ll be like riding a bike once you start. I’m 53 and all I ever wanted to be was a rock singer and mom, I’m a mom and my singing sucks ass now but back in the day I could belt this out all day. I gave it up, I’m to old, you’re not. Go for it! 💜🎵💜

[@willasacco9898]

Good advice - I’m 65 and I started riding a bike again, for the first time since the early 70’s. It felt odd and I fell down twice, but then I got better and it was OK.

[@scottderechinsky9896]

LONG LIVE THE WHO!!!! So many phenomenal songs to listen to. Won't Get Fooled Again, Baba O'Riley, The Real Me, Join Together, Who Are You......

[@poobum9857]

sung with Power and Passion ...

[@flubblert]

Terrible timing for that final pause, but otherwise great reaction as always.Once again, please consider backing it up a few clicks when you pause so as to not interrupt the flow. Check out 'Behind Blue Eyes' by them next.

[@Cheshirecat-nx9zn]

Behind Blue Eyes is my favorite from The Who's Next album.

[@thorsluter7835]

It's probably been said, but you guys cut the song off before the end. You just missed the greatest primal scream in rock history.

[@ragingmong5593]

The real me - the who! Another quadrophenia classic

[@14gilbertst]

'The Punk and the Godfather', '5:15', 'Doctor Jimmy', 'The Real Me'.....all Epic tunes from this album.

[@davescurry69]

What a choice guys. In my humble opinion, the greatest band of them all. Check out more of their stuff. You will love it.

[@teresakoslosky3053]

This song I heard with my one truest love when it came out!!! I miss him so much, he was shot and killed and this song makes me cry every time!!! Thanks for playing it for me!!!

[@DanielMcHale-ci4gc]

Perhaps thee best love song ever written.

[@tsmmike6904]

To me, this is their greatest song but they have so many. You can check out the entire Rock Opera Quadrophenia or any of their classics from the 60's, 70's and 80's like Won't Get Fooled Again. Behind Blue Eyes, Baba O'Reily Who Are You, Pinball Wizard. So many to choose from!

[@simply_psi]

Such a great song worthy poll winner, The Who are so talented, and totally insane live.

[@davidpost428]

Glad that you listened to requests forThe Who ! "Won't Get Fooled Again" is my all-time favorite Who song - it will rock you. They have so many great songs with Keith Moon - one of the best rock drummers of all time, Pete Towshend, a genius on guitar and lead singer Roger Daltrey. Bass player John Entwisle was one of rock's best with the bass guitar. He woud stand stock still on stage while the other three were going crazy. Their live performances are the best in rock. Watch: you will see.

[@keithetherington4824]

Love is one emotion that can take you so high that you never want to come down from it and so low that your hole body suffers from wanting it. It's the only thing that matters in my opinion, you can't buy it , you can't steal it, it can only be given.

[@stevehughes6627]

Forget the Stones, these are the real rock group of their era!

[@mizzwinter28]

Hi Bros! You just came upon one of the most legendary crew of ROCKERS in the history of EVER. I ❤️ The Who. You're both in for a treat; Roger Daltry's gravelly screams & Pete Townsend's insane guitar style. My top 3 faves are this one u did, Behind Blue Eyes, and See Me, Feel Me. See Me, Feel Me live ❤️❤️❤️: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHm3laWGgZdlY7s

[@parissimons6385]

For some people growing up in North America in the mid-1960s, the first "British Invasion" in popular music was led by The Beatles, and with them The Rolling Stones, The Who, and The Kinks in that first wave. There were many more, but those ones seemed to make the deepest ongoing impact at the time. And all of those bands evolved and the sound of their songs changed, even if The Beatles stopped in 1970. The Who had already been active together, recording and playing concerts, for eight years when Pete Townsend finished writing and the group recorded the 'rock opera' Quadrophenia. And that composition is a whole, so taking songs from it out of context is challenging. That said, "The Real Me", "5:15", and "Love, Reign O'er Me" are now considered amongst rock and roll classics.

[@anniegoodrich262]

WELCOME TO THE WHO! Now let's get down in it with Baba O'Reily, Won't Get Fooled Again, Who Are You, Magic Bus, My Generation, You Better You Bet. Let's do it!

[@melissayost4888]

The double album ‘Quadrophenia’ is an F’ing masterpiece. You need to listen to the entire album to put this in context. It’s a concept album

[@elsievickie]

Led Zeppelin honored at Kennedy center. Best cover of Song. Stairway to Heaven. Heart sings song. Fantastic loved seeing the boys, great tribute!!!!

[@markb3186]

you guys recognize the great stuff there is gold in those few years 64-late 70's unlike any other era and there had NEVER been anything like the explosion of talent starting with the beatles, of course i was a beatlemaniac

[@DawnSuttonfabfour]

I still am. Their music is 98% of my funeral rites! Weeping, yes obviously I am a great loss (ahem) but in your grief you will hear some of the best music ever made and you will, WILL sing along. I am being cremated so I should finally go out to "Both Ends Burning" by Roxy Music but am having Across the Universe to go through the final curtain. I know I know but if you don't get this stuff sorted before you go, lord knows what you might get sent off to. Kajagoogoo? Kiley? Jason Donovan? The hideous possibilities are endless, lol. Locked down peace, love & music from East Coast of England. Sorry to go on; I don't get out much lately....I'll get my coat...

[@bettybaby63]

Great reaction. I saw them live in NY in I think ‘80 lol. Great show. Now get back on that piano!

[@elsievickie]

In the tribute, drummer is his son. You can feel the love between father and son.

[@Chepo90]

Behind blue eyes, incredible song!.

[@nickier3248]

So excited you guys are on to The Who! Seen them 5 times & sound amazing live! "Who Are You", "Won't Get Fooled Again" & "Baba O'Reilly" must be next ❤

[@keithetherington4824]

The Who have a huge collection of songs. You will get as many reaction requests from this group as any other. They are rock legends, you will enjoy them a lot. I request the song, Slip Kid !!

[@alabhaois]

What a stunning song 👍👍👍!!

[@junietunes2148]

Really good reaction guys. This is the final song on the rock opera "Quadrophenia" which tells the story of a young man who society has given up on. He's sad and angry and ready to give up, but in the end, he decides that he doesn't want to live with fear, anger and hate any more and he wants love to be is guide, he wants love to reign over him. It's incredibly beautiful and my favorite song of all time. I highly recommend listening to the full album!

[@helenarcarvalho]

The greatest song they wrote!!!

[@peoplesmedicinedrum9916]

Eminent Front, Pinball Wizard, The Seeker, Behind Blue Eyes, are more killer tunes from The Who. The 70's seemed to be full of power rock bands. All had their own lane, but competed against each other and all still were top bands. Obviously the GOATs being Zeppelin. You had The Who, Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, AC/DC, Black Sabbath, Ozzy Osbourne, Dio, Queen, David Bowie, Jimi Hendrix, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Eagles, this list could go for some time. The point is, they all are still relevant today and influenced many of our 80s and 90s music. Most of these bands will never be forgotten.

[@Wolverines77]

Make sure, 100% for sure, that you are IN LOVE with whomever you play this song for if you are trying to win them over... Learned the hard way in my early 20's that this song is akin to asking someone to marry you... Check out Asia and their song Without You...

[@craigproctor9560]

The who album quadrophenia was made in to a movie in 1979

[@reesezpeecez08]

Listening to them in the 60's and 70's you never heard the same type of song and they all rocked. They were on the cutting edge of music and were ALL super talented. I feel they and Deep Purple were underrated back then.

[@tomward6689]

It was in a movie, the Who's "Quadrophenia". Several other great one's from the sound track. But their perfect album is "Who's Next"

[@tsmmike6904]

Actually it was a Rock Opera created by Townsend. It was later made in to a movie.

[@justasurfer8596]

Guys listen to the whole quadroohenia album. You'll hear great music and you'll see where this song fits into the whole story of the album. We'll worth the time

[@ElwoodShort]

probably their most well known track is Pinball Wizard... which still sounds amazing .

[@johntarnowski9086]

This is from the album Quadrophenia one of the greatest albums of all time. Give it a listen

[@calguy3838]

This was the final song of a rock opera called "Quadrophenia" that was the basis for an excellent movie later in the 70's. Every song on "Quadrophenia" is worth a listen, but the opening song, "The Real Me" is definitely not to be missed.

[@extdiso]

Daltrey’s vocal is AMAZING!!!!

[@jeffmartin1026]

This is from their 2nd "rock opera" Quadrophenia. The main character has realized that over anything else he has tried to obtain in lifr that Love is the most important. You should listen to some of their earlier (mid-60's) songs - Magic Bus, Substitue, My Generation and I Can see For Miles are all great songs.

[@lisamorrison2149]

One of my favorite songs of all time! Love Daltreys vocals.. Great review and perspective! ❤💥

[@Yosef1952]

Bros, you need to listen to Quadrophenia, start to finish. This song is the last number on the album, and heard in context, it's even more powerful.

[@grannysgonerabid7425]

If you're going to watch/listen to Baby O'Riley or "Won't Get Fooled Again" look for the video from Shepperton Studios for the documentary The Kids Are Alright. Those two clips of the Who performing those two songs live is EPIC!

[@spectatecomment7306]

Probably most viewers of this are fans of the who or at least this song. I will say that regardless of being a fan, you can't deny the passion that Roger put in this song. Pete wrote it but Roger was very intentional to be sincere with all his singing.

[@Carpythesharky]

Yo! I recommend you try to slowly get back into piano a bit. I took it as a kid for 8ish years and didn't like it, and never understood why I was made to play it. I'm ~30 and got myself a cheap electric board and realized that it was much more enjoyable on my own time, when I was playing for myself. It obviously doesn't come back as easily as riding a bike, but I think you'll be surprised with how much muscle memory you will still have. It's been a fun experience for me to revisit piano playing now that I'm older and have a greater appreciation for music as a whole. Cheers!

[@josephregester7780]

Quadrophenia is a true work of art. I recommend you try The Real Me. Very unique and will show a very new way to play music.

[@izzonj]

This song is the closing piece from a 90 minute rock opera on which the main character is sitting at waters edge deciding whether to commit suicide to to let love save him. That's why it's so dramatic. Plus it's the Who.

[@MegaGameHunter]

Dude, you can still get back to the piano!!! When you played it as young, you just refresh your skills

The Who one of the roughest rock group and among the gods of Rock n' Roll....

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

One of the biggest bands in rock history, bro’s! They hit a couple of years before Zeppelin. Before Robert Plant, Roger Daltrey was no doubt the best vocalist in rock....and many would argue that he was better than Plant. And some think that Plant copied Daltrey’s stage persona. But Roger says “no” to that.....Plant was all Plant. In any case, The Who have a HUGE discography....including TWO “rock operas”, one of which, Tommy, was the first such undertaking in the Rock genre. The energy they put out in their live shows was off the charts. They were never “my band”, but that didn’t mean I didn’t respect their place in Rock history. The Who are right up there with Zeppelin, The Stones, the Beatles, Floyd, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple. One of the BIG ones. It’s good that you are getting around to them.

[@mikeyrebs8259]

Saw them in 78 at MSG first tour after Moon Died and Roger sang this song running in place the whole song I don't don't how he did it but I was there and saw it and this song was for Keith that night

[@grannysgonerabid7425]

That drum fill by Keith at the end? There aren't many drummers that have the stamina to do it. In fact, if you listen to the entire album Quadrophenia Moonie's drumming is mind bogglingly hard to do.

The WHO….. “The Kids Are Alright” Tour 1989. Rich Stadium Buffalo N.Y…….. AWESOME After the concert the Who were being interviewed on the local radio station and the DJ asked the band…. “So what do you think about that new RAP music coming out”…. Roger Daltrey laughed and started to answer when John Entwistle said….. “let me answer this one….. It seems to me that if you can’t write music, can’t play music, can’t sing music, if you know absolutely nothing at all about music, well then, you do rap now don’t you”….. Then. Pete Townshend said….. “If Hitler was going to come back and torture the world again he would use rap music. Roger Daltrey laughed and said…. “Isn’t that the truth”
