THE WHO You better you bet REACTION - Their power always overpowers you! First time hearing

[@sheilathailand1903]

To the sound of old T Rex, and Who's Next. Love that line ❤

[@rmac8008]

Kenny Jones from the small faces on drums RIP Keith

[@chrisjohnson3694]

I remember this song came out in 1981 when MTv first started & this video being played over and over and over as they didn't have that many videos at the start. Since I love The Who, I was plenty happy.

[@julilla1]

Yes, that was when I was exposed to The Who, early MTV. I am a lifelong fan now.

[@BClarke]

Me too! Got a lot of Pete’s “Let My Love Open The Door” at that time on MTV as well, which I also love. This is a great track that I think gets criminally overlooked.

[@chrisjohnson3694]

@@BClarke I forgot about solo Townshend Townshend like the "Rough Boys" in the pool hall...and, yes, "Let My Love..." Good call!!!!

[@julilla1]

@@chrisjohnson3694 yes, "Rough Boys"! Has Harri done "Slit Skirts"?

[@chrisjohnson3694]

@@julilla1 I'm going to check that right now. I think maybe that's my favorite Townshend solo tune. That and "Give Blood" which has a live version on KZbin.

[@njwho68]

Excellent reaction (couldn't agree with you more!) to an excellent Who tune...my favorite band since I was 10 years old!!

[@javier3585]

The Who's soul was lost, Keith Moon had passed away in 1978.

[@kennethfrazee2540]

It's good that they retained the aggressive drums after Moon passed away.

[@davebzen795]

This is one of my favorite Who songs and a mighty fine submission, Daniel. Thank you Daniel and Harri and happy holidays to both of you.

[@danielvolk237]

Thanks DaveBZen. Hope you have a happy holiday. Look forward to your New Year picks.

[@keithroberts4952]

Kenny Jones - legend! He played drums for the small faces as well as the Faces. He played the drums on the Rolling stones "it's only rock 'n' roll" and he played for the Who. Oh, and he played at Live Aid.

[@timothybush9633]

Hi Harri, So many Great songs from the WHO, hard to pick my favorite but "LOVE REIGN O"ER ME" is up there😎

[@keithschofield1158]

This is the first album with out Moon it was pretty good I liked another tricky day but The Who were my favorite band it was a tough pill to swallow the sad thing was Roger Was taking Keith to the gym Keith was willing to give up his lifestyle to remain The Who’s drummer

[@miker4141]

First night of MTV. I was I think 16. This played soon after the bugglrs. Omfg. Takes me back

[@lancevaughn432]

Check out some John Entwhistle lead vocal songs, “My Wife”, “Boris The Spider”.

[@julilla1]

His bass work on Boris The Spider is incredible.

[@marybaillie8907]

Kenney Jones had big shoes to fill, coming into an established band and trying to replace Keith Moon. This is a great Who song. Roger Daltrey leading the way with exceptional vocals with harmonies with Townshend. The tempo so upbeat and catchy. The instruments are all wonderfully The Who. It was their last single to make the Billboard Top 100's in England. Great reaction Harri. Thanks Harri and Daniel. Right on.🎅🎅🎄🎄🎶🎶 Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

I sure miss the face reactions tho but yeah, agree, did a good job but was a much more calmed down version at least in this video. But as far as his talent, right on with that. Enjoy your holidays!

[@Prof_Jeff]

I was aware of The Who's '60s and early '70s hits, but this one just jumped out and grabbed me as a teenager. Plus I've always thought it sounded very similar to Townshend's "Let My Love Open the Door". Maybe it's just that Townshend wrote both, but it also could be that they also are from the same period of time (he recorded Empty Glass late '79 to early '80 while Face Dances was recorded the last half of '80). Makes me wonder if he had "You Better, You Bet" for his solo album but decided it would work better as a Who song. 🤔

[@minkhollow]

Solidly post-Keith song; I believe the drummer at this point was Kenny Jones. When the Who started touring again in the '90s they picked up Zak Starkey (fun fact: Ringo Starr's son!) as their drummer, and he lives up to Keith's legacy. My parents semi-jokingly hold this up as 'their song,' which I think has more to do with my mom's first marriage than their (considerably more successful) one.

[@dellafenton2417]

Another fun fact - Keith Moon bought Zac Starkeys first set of drums....

[@chitownlee]

That's Kenny Jones on the drums, this is after Keith Moon died.

[@diane-]

I love the Who and this is a great song.

[@Imadrummin]

You better know imadrummin is a big fan of the Who, a fan of Daniel Volk and obviously a big fan of Sir Harri...... the supreme Bestie of us all.

[@danielvolk237]

Thanks Imadrummin. Your opinion always matters. Have a Happy Holiday my friend. 🎄🎁🎅🤶🎀☃️❄️🇺🇸🇨🇦🇬🇧🤴

[@frugalseverin2282]

This is the shorter single version, I prefer the longer album version. This album came out in '81 when I was living in England so I got to see them on that tour, my 1st rock concert ever. Daltrey is deadly with that microphone, he put out a lamp 20 feet above the stage that night.

[@julilla1]

I love that story! 😂

[@Prof_Jeff]

I've heard that he's knocked out heckler's teeth with a mic and kept on going!

[@John_Locke_108]

Crazy that was post Moon. Those drums are so tight.

[@whooligan7159]

This video was the fourth video played on MTV, but was the first one they repeated.

[@debbiechang5781]

Thanks for this request Daniel. I often let The Who get lost in the jumble of so many great bands of the times. Thanks Harri 🎄🎁🎄

[@danielvolk237]

Thanks Debbie for the kind comment. 👍🙃🎄🎁🎅🤶🎀☃️❄️🇨🇦🇺🇸🇬🇧🤴

[@unclephil7650]

My exact thoughts Harri....he was ok, but he was no Keith Moon.....Keith was a force of nature.

[@romeosyne]

He was way better than ok...he could keep metronomic time and create a grooving drum track. I also admire Moon though. Both are legends in my book! No aggression intended, this is what makes music great, the debates, the back-and-forth...you know. Cheers to all, we are all tuned in to some great music!

[@JAMESMOORE-gq4vv]

At the time, they said Kenny was the only drummer to replace Keith.

[@jasonmarquis7586]

They were some of the predecessors of Punk. Speaking of Punk, I keep recommending one of Industrial Punks best - Skinny Puppy - ‘Tin Omen’. And I’m still waiting 😊 you’ll love it when you finally listen to them, just be sure to use subtitles.

[@joelliebler5690]

Great tune with one other really good tune on that album!Hari try Another Tricky Day from the same album .

[@dishields7808]

One of my favorites of theirs

[@danielvolk237]

The Who were famous for sometimes hating each other. There was an incident where Pete Townshend smashed his guitar over Roger Daltrey's head. Roger gathered himself and casually walked up and punched Pete knocking him out cold. 🙃

[@Prof_Jeff]

Daltrey is one tough cookie, that's for sure.

[@susanneg2824]

This is my favorite Who song, it’s almost a “ditty.” Sort of silly but charming all the same.

[@EvanWeber1234]

To the sound of old T. Rex!

[@JAMESMOORE-gq4vv]

Pete FACE THE FACE.

[@erickent3557]

Was young when this was out, didn't understand the sentiment, but the sound and energy impacted me.. spring '81? Disappeared from the radiowaves too quick. Always LOVED the drums, regardless that folks expect something "more" if it was Keith Moon.

[@jonathanmurphy3141]

After Keith's death, they invited Kenny Jones to drum, from The Small Faces/The Faces. He is a fine drummer -but Roger didn't feel that he fit the band after a while. Keith, with his AD-HD was more erratic and innovative in his drum rhythm -Kenny was more traditional. This album "Face Dances" had several quality tunes -check out "Another tricky Day" which was filmed in the same way, monochrome. The next album with Kenny, 'It's Hard" has a gem or two, but not really a solid effort -The Who broke up after that tour in 1983,...to do various reunions, and later recordings up until now. "You better you bet" they do play on tours today.

[@julilla1]

"Eminence Front" is getting a lot of play on other reaction channels lately. It's a solid banger.

[@gregfagan199]

Jones and Entwistle make a great rhythm section. The Ox is the greatest of all bassists, and Jones filled in admirably for Keith. Moon was a madman on the drums; Jones was more precise.

[@BigC.]

Great line-up. No replacing Keith Moon but they were still in their prime. Saw them in 1978 and was very impressed with Kenny Jones.

[@danielvolk237]

The bass player is the longtime original great bass guitarist Roger Entwistle. RIP. ☹️

[@julilla1]

"The Quiet One" my a$$, that man thundered like nobody else. He was more deserving of his other nickname "The Ox". The great thing about The Who is that individually and as a band, nobody sounded like them. John's bass was unique, Pete's lead guitar and lyrics are unique, Roger's voice is absolutely unique and Keith Moon was from the moon. 😂

[@dellafenton2417]

That'll be John Entwistle, also known as The Ox...

[@bryanlennicx7031]

Take a listen to Pete Townsend “ Slit Skirts” and “ Give Blood “. Listen to Give Blood live, it’s David Gilmour on Guitar from Pink Floyd. Soooooo amazing. I’ll send you the link

I have always really liked this song. Im sure Keith would have made a difference; maybe this would never have been written. It always reminded me of songs from his solo 'Empty Glass' lbum...

[@Prof_Jeff]

Ha! I posted that sentiment under another comment. It reminds me a lot of "Let My Love Open the Door".
