I used to think he was singing livin is f*cked, lol. Their song Love, Reign O’er Me is intense.
david coverdale and jimmy page converged on an album and it was fire.. you should check out the best track ua-cam.com/video/2_--l7CPc7E/v-deo.html
I’m so glad some other people recognize how freaking bad ass this song is!!! I’m the only person I know who likes this song! The Who’s top 3 Best 🐐
Their last great hit. When everyone thought they were done they pulled this Mona Lisa out of the hat.
This song always puts me into a trance. Such a great keyboard loop and rhythm.
The isolated bass on this song is insane.
Ya,reminds me of the classic t.v. show " Barney Miller" the hooks all over still got me. A reaction to Yamama's Hash cookies/brownies is still a pivotal moment in T.V. history 😂😮😅😂
I remember when Cadillac used this song in their car commercials. Talk about delicious irony. Pete must have been laughing all the way to the bank.
I remember thinking the entire team behind that commercial must not have known or cared about the lyrics. And how fitting it was. Perfect!
Polo the reason why they sound different is evolution. The Who is a 60s English Band. They were part of the English Invasion. And like the Stones, the Who evolved with each passing decade. You are now listening to 80s Who.
Also the guitarist Pete Townsend is doing the vocals in this one while most of their originals had the frontman Rodger Daltrey singing.
The Who:
Lead vocals Rodger Daltrey
Lead Bass John Entwistle
Lead Drums Keith Moon
Rhythm Guitar. Pete Townsend😂
Keith Moon had been dead for a couple of years by the time this was recorded
Exactly and Pete Townsend is singing lead on this… truly one of their funkier tunes. So glad to see you embracing one of the best groups of my generation so wholly.
Please react to The Who's 'Love Reign O're Me'! It's a classic!! Roger's vocals are stellar!!
I saw them live! Years ago. It prepared me be deaf enough to deal with teenagers later in life.
🤣🤣🤣
They were very loud live!!!
I was living in a fraternity house in college and the guy next door to my room played this song in a loop all day - for like 6 months. He blew out his stereo twice as played it very loud. I fixed his stereo each time so he could keep playing it - never got sick of it.
Johns bass is so sick on this track! He’s so underrated!
Underrated by whom? He’s widely regarded as the greatest bass player ever….Lemmy called him the Godfather!
I agree. John and Chris Squire from Yes are two of the best bassists of this generation.
No he’s not. You’ve really opened a can of worms for yourself. 😂
Underrated? Give over 🤣🤣
Rolling Stone 2011. Voted greatest bass guitarist.
I missed them in 1970 at college because I didn't have the $4.50 for the ticket. 50 years later I finally got to see them but the ticket now cost me $450!😂 Worth every penny!❤
My first time was the Who Are You tour, '80 I think ($15 general admission, a week after the Cleveland tragedy)... half the staff where I worked went to the show, boss said he couldn't spare me, I went anyway. Skipped school but went there anyway to pick up some doobage and got kicked out by my first hour teacher...LOL... Was an awesome day. Listened to the show on the way home too! WRIF did a tape delay broadcast. Last memory of that night was the parking lot where our group met to carpool to the show, stereo blasting out live "the Who" and us playing air guitar jumping off the top of dumpsters (as if they were Marshall stacks) doing Pete's windmill. Good times!
You love bass: "The Real Me," is a must.
The guitar is excellent in that song, as well. A rocker
Definitely 🔥
Yeah. The intro just blasts out, The Who!
Agree
@@smd2169 and the drums!
I tapped on this video as fast as I could. I KNEW you would absolutely love it. The song was a bit controversial among many of The Who's fans for being disco-ish, but I don't care what anybody labels this song; I just label it as being one of the greatest songs this band ever did. The groove is strong and undeniable, Pete Townsend sings with such soul and conviction, his guitar playing is subtle and amazing, and overall this song just rocks extremely steady.
All of the major British invasion bands of the 60s, beginning (of course) with The Beatles, majorly expanded their initial sounds way beyond what anyone could have predicted for any of them. Even the Rolling Stones, who have remained remarkably stable in their music, have expanded their sound big-time at various times in their legendary 60+ year career. As I've been saying now for many years, Americans invented Rock and Roll, but the British perfected it. It's been absolutely wonderful.
When this album came out it blew us all away.
This is my favorite Who song. It's my go to song for nighttime summertime driving with the windows down.
This is the song you start your day on when you want to destroy any challenge that comes your way.
Thanks polo. Listened to this 40 years and now hearing m&m funk.
The Who movie THE KIDS ARE ALRIGHT was a favorite at the midnight movies in the early 80's. The lights would go down,the movie starts and the joint's were fired up. Great memories ❤
Happy Jack, Boris the Spider, Long Live Rock, My Wife, Mobile, Squeeze Box, Slip Kid, Bargain, Pure and Easy....... So many great tunes from this band, and a couple of Rock Operas.
Hey this is a great song, excited for this reaction!
A snippet of this song was used in the movie "Law Abiding Citizen". I hadn't heard the song before so I looked up the music credits in the movie. I loved what I had heard and love it still!
'83..left my dead-end job/life in the Midwest..decided to try the West Coast..pulling out of Amarillo (or some city in TX in my car)..finally headed west..and this song came on the radio...never forget it..interesting how music can do that to you
How things turn out?
One of my favorite Who songs! Townshed really shines on this one!
The bass Entwistle lays down is Sick. Saw them on this tour, their energy filled a whole stadium.
We just saw them live 2 years ago and they did not disappoint nor have they lost their edge.
Check out "Real Me" from The Who. One of the most amazing bass performances in rock.
I second this recommendation. The Real Me has an amazing driving bass line.
Couldn’t agree more
Ok. I’ve heard this a million times and always thought he was singing “litta bit a funk, a little funk” and I’m 63 and today is the day I learned what he was saying!! 😂😂😂❤
The reason this song sounds different from the others you did by The Who is Pete Townshend (lead guitar and composer) is singing the lead on thios one. Roger Daltrrey, the bands lead singer did the vocals on the other ones you did. Also, Kenny Jones is the drummer on this. He replaced Keith Moon who passed away after the Who Are You album.
I will never unhear "M&M funk." 😂😂😂
Ahhh my favourite song about yuppies doing blow. Lol
Summer, 1990, Joe Robbie Stadium (now called Hard Rock) we had The Who. Quite simply the best live performance I have ever seen. Period. And Eminence Front? Man, what a VIBE live!!
These guys are outrageously talented. We had ~53,000 people Who will, I am certain, never forget this concert.😎
That intro is legit pure 80’s Casio keyboard.
The fans have got your back. Pete Townshend on vocals and Kenny Jones on drums are a different version of the Who. Pete has some solo work out there as well. Maybe check out "Let My Love Open the Door" or "Lost Boys" from the Empty Glass album.
“Rough Boys”, but yes.
Give blood!
Slit Skirts
This is the genius of Pete Townshend! As production and sound systems improved from the 1960’s into the 1980’s as this song was done in the early’89’s, Pete was able to add deeper synths and other instruments!
This is my favorite jam from the who, they shake it up you'll never hear the same song twice, hope you like, it's unique.. mind-blowing 💪
Awesome reaction. So glad that you listened to the studio version first. When the drums drop, it is SO powerful. Lastly, don't overlooked is the bass line at 4:50.
I got to see this live at the Los Angeles Forum 3rd row at 17 years old with my best friend RIP . One of my favorite memories of my life
When I used to go on long runs this was my last song I’d put on. I’d be about a 1/2 mile from home. I’d start picking up the pase then the last 1/4 mile sprint. I ran cross country in high school and the last little bit your trained to sprint to the finish line. This song never ever fails to pump me up. This is my favorite Who song for sure.
My favorite Who song. Thanks
A whole new generation of young people discovered them when all the CSI series used their music for their theme songs! Interesting in the WHO skyrocketed!❤
The layering in this song is epic.
I got chills watching you even though I've listened to this song 300 times.
This song was basically a diss track to Disco. They made a disco style song in their own way and lyrically went after disco and the culture.
Great reaction and song 👏👏👏
The Seeker or The Real Me really deserve to come up soon on your Who journey
Love this song, it's on my playlist. Thank you for your review. 🎉
One of my favorite Who songs.
I've been hearing this song for 40 years but when I hear it now it will forever remind me of when I stole a motorcycle and explored San Andreas for the first time. It was nighttime, and it started to rain...
This song shows up in various TV shows and movies from time to time as background music. If you remember the 80s show Miami Vice, it was used in that show. It was also in the movie "Infiltrator" from 2016
Great song, I was just listening to this the other day, but I remember from when I was a kid. The music of the 1970s man and early 80s, it was just great. Such a prolific era ! Will a time like that ever return ?
One of my all time favorites by them
I’m 69 years old and this opening is still my all time favorite. Back when I played high school basketball (1972) I wished that this was around for the pregame layup line.
One of my favs. Welcome to traveling down the rabbit hole as hippies would say. This song was made later on but we still groove to it to this day ❤
I remember my cousin and I listening to this in 1979 smoking bud and we concluded he was saying "living in a spud", lol. It's still one of my favorite songs.
Brother, I swear, this song IS the "trailer song" of the 80's... the ENTIRE 80's... Sound AND Lyrics...
The song you could hear daily.
I love this song, just is one of my favorites from this band! Enjoy Polo 💙
You mentioned theme song.... Every time i hear this i cant help but think of Miami Vice. This song was used and was a perfect fit for that show back in the 80's
One of my very favourite, if not my favourite Who song 🎶 Great lyrics too. ❤
YES! This song hits HARD! GREAT driving song 🔥
Saw The WHO for the first time on this tour, "It's Hard", The Centrum Worcester, Mass., with David Johansson as the opening act. Electric environment. Best song, with incredible lighting, was "Sister Disco". Check a video of that if you can. "Eminence Front" was another major song at that show, for sure. Thanks for the memories.
This is favorite Who tune. Was waiting for you to react to it. Real bad ass.👏👏
I typically play this track at least twice every time I play it.
"And I moved", from Townsend's solo album Empty Glass.
One of the best drops ever
As a pocket drummer, I very much appreciate this song more than the Keith Moon played songs. This is Kenney Jones playing drums, and Pete Townsend singing lead instead of Roger Daltrey.
And Entwistle's bass!
Really impressed by The Who hear. Love it.
My favorite song from them !!! 👍🏻🌼💛
I didn't even need to watch this, I saw the song and was already like... you're going to love the opening groove to this song. It's so damn infectious. Great reaction man.
Love listening to this tune in the car. When the drums start the next groove it gives me chills every time!
I always picture a big body Cadillac when I hear this song. It has a pimp feel
"Livin in Funk" and i'll never change it ;)
First heard this as a 13 year old in 1982 . . Yep I was that weird black kid who was into rock metal and punk ! My second concert was for Motley Crue for the Shout At The Devil tour . Back then thought my current age of 55 was really old 😂🤣. Glad it stood the test of time to still be a great song !!
SO MANY,but Join Together With The Band has a special vibe for me,reminds of the beauty that got away as she loved it,I love it too.
Also,5.15 by them,and as for live,the set they did at Leeds,England in 1970 is legendary and it’s legendary for the unique sound they got from that venue and the pure energy in every song.
*must be the deluxe version though The Who Live at Leeds.
One of the top 3 live albums in history imo.
Good stuff - M&M funk had me crying 🤣
They played at my job and now this song is in my playlist 😂😂😂
Fun to track all of the different interpretations of what they're singing. My favorite is "Living in the Bronx"...
Got to see them on their first of many farewell tours the one I saw them on was in 1982 at Toronto's Maple Leaf Gardens that concert was broadcast across Canada and the USA I think it was close to Christmas like 16th or 17th ( I got the ticket as a early Christmas present) it was a Friday night I remember that much
Great, now I'm gonna hear "M&M Funk" every time I listen now.
Love love love this song
sssssssssssick tune! 🤘
This is my favorite Who song!! I saw them live in the early 80's.
This is used in the film 'The Infiltrator'. Played in a montage when his undercover persona is revealed to a drugs baron. Hence his eminence front is blown ;)
There's a movie with Adam Sandler called "Reign over me" with other phenomenal actors and the soundtrack features that Who song by the movie title. I might be wrong but the movie itself is great and you add the song 🎵. Deep Deep movie. Great reaction and love your channel. Correction, it's called Love, Reign O'er me, if you haven't reacted them I hope you do and give the movie a try because it is an emotional Adam Sandler sleeper. 💯💯💯👍👍👍🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️
Great film !
Definitely a great movie and something definitely unexpected for an Adam Sandler movie. Showed he was capable of more than comedy. Don Cheadle was in this movie and the two of them were great together in it. Love, Reign Over Me by The Who was the icing on the cake in this one for sure.
Absolutely great film and amazing soundtrack.
My favorite from The Who!
✌🏻❤️from Texas
My favorite Who song! I think the beginning part was used in the train seen in Risky Business.
P L A Y L I S T on Errbody's Funk Jam list! OMG that Bass line from "The Ox!" This song drives your speakers into "Oh Shit" mode!!
Polo!!!! M&M FUNK! Can you not see Pete Townsend riffing on the guitar with the 2 M&M guys dancing in front of him and singing M&M funk! Pete stops and theyre still signing.....hilarious
And who said the boomers only took??? Yeah, I thought so...73 now and this still rocks!
72 in a couple weeks....Rock On!
🥊
LOVE this song. That arcade game on the cover of the album was called "Space Duel," and it was such a fun game.
My friends in NY used to think that he is singing *Living in the Bronx* 😂
The song does have a cinematic quality, Michael Mann used in a number of “Miami Vice” episodes
I listened to this yesterday and decided to do so again this morning. I always loved this song but really never knew it was The Who. I love your reaction to the various changes in the sound until they got to the singing. Seeing you look at us is precious. Makes me smile too. Thanks for re-exposing me to The Who.
Ah! One of my most favourite The Who songs. So glad you reviewed it. Wait until you hear the rock opera Tommy.
The older I get the more I appreciate the who
I finally got you on a "live". You'll probably like it!
I'm officially calling this song "M&M Funk" from now on 😂
Wow. 250K!
I had roommates who were CONVINCED the line was “M&Ms Truck” instead of Emminence Front”
So satisfying to enjoy new listeners encountering this artists and songs for the first time.
Woooou, yeah!
Get ready people, you gonna enjoy this one.... Play that guy!❤🎸🥁❤💯🕺🏻
