    A little about me and this channel:
    My name is James Aubrey IV and I just recently graduated college from Iowa State University. After college I decided to take a leap of faith. So I moved to San Diego California to pursue my passion for videography/ UA-cam. Overall I'm a pretty chill person, outside of UA-cam I like to longboard, dance, play video games, lift weights and hangout with my friends. I know that success on UA-cam won't happen overnight but I'm willing to stay patient and put in the work to try to prefect my craft daily. This UA-cam channel will be centered around my life after college. You will be able to see all of the ups and downs on my journey to success. So if you like the content make sure you subscribe so you can be apart of the Rome Life Family. (Let's build our own personal Rome's together.)
    What is the Rome Life ? And What does it mean to be apart of it?
    Rome Life is something I started during my Sophomore year of high school (one of the worst times in my life) it started off as me documenting my journey to recovery from my shoulder surgery but eventually it turned into a platform that I could use to encourage myself as well as others to chase our dreams.
    Rome Life isn't just a saying it's a way of life and for the people who want to be apart of it have to realize that. Rome wasn't built in a day it took a lot of handwork time and most importantly patience. So you can't expect your dreams to be any different

      In addition to the Sex Pistols aspect of the song, Pete has also mentioned the song is sort of a prayer begging the question of God: "Who Are You?". Regarding the prayer part I think Pete refers to the line: "I know there's a place you walk where love falls from the trees. My heart is like a broken cup, I only feel right on my knees. I spit out like a sewer hole, yet still receive your kiss. How can I measure up to anyone now after such a love as this?". Pete has also described the song "Bargain" as a prayer.

    "Pinball Wizard" is probably my favorite Who tune; they did a rock opera called "Tommy", and that song was in it. It was made into a movie that starred several celebrities, like Tina Turner and Eric Clapton. Check it out!

    The Who are in the same Rock Pantheon as The Beatles, The Rolling Stone and Led Zeppelin. They have been a favorite of mine since the early 60's and thoroughly enjoyed them at Woodstock. Spent time with them in Leeds in 73 and 74. They spent millions to equip a studio back then on what can easily be accomplished with a stroke of a keyboard today. Would recommend listening to these albums in their entirety: The Rock Opera Tommy and Quadrophenia. Their individual talent abounds. Keith Moon was the Jimmi Hendrix of the drum kit, rarely ever setting up a high hat and using three rows and a total of 13 toms, including concert toms and timbales. The Ox was John Entwistle, who designed a four string bass and played an eight string bass. He was also known as Thunderfingers and is unparalleled by any other bass player to this day. The voice of Roger Daltrey is an instrument that no other band benefits from as much as The Who. Pete Townhend was not only the lead guitarist, but the principal composer of their music. Another trademark of The Who is that they are performance artists, whether smashing a guitar on stage, or pioneering laser lighting as part of their concert. My favorite Who Song is "Behind Blue Eyes", but it has many other near equals, as Townhend composed over 100 songs

    Keith Moon was an absolute god at the drums. One of those who died way too soon. He's sitting straddled on that chair in this photo because his alcoholism had caused him to gain weight. He died from an overdose of prescription pills he was using to try to fight his alcohol cravings.
    He died in the same apartment in London as Mama Cass Elliott, four years before.
    The Who now tour with drummer Zak Starkey, who is Ringo Starr's son.

    "Who Are You" is used as the theme song to most international versions of the mystery singing competition series The Masked Singer including the American version.
    "Who Are You" was used as background music in scene from the Nicolas Roeg movie Bad Timing.
    "Who Are You" is the theme to the TV show CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. Furthermore, an episode even took its title from the song (Season 1 Episode 6). Also in the series 150th episode, Roger Daltrey himself guest-starred (in the season 7 episode "Living Legend"[7]).

    I'm going to have to upload a reaction-reaction to this video. I was listening along and moving, and EVERY SINGLE TIME i opened my eyes and looked at you, we were doing the exact same motions. It was almost eerie in the precision, and I've always had an interest in why we instinctively 'move our bodies' certain ways to specific sounds (whether it's cultural, biological, or 'learned' somehow) but this is like the 9th video of yours that I've noticed it, and I have to believe it's happened to lots of other people too.
    You do a GREAT job 'feeling' the music, by the way. As a piano/voice teacher and performer, I will feel surprised if you don't find yourself dabbling in music (singing or an instrument) in the next few years. I think you'd have natural advantage--your intuition is physical. It would be more a matter of 'doing' rather than 'thinking' I suspect. :)

    Yep, Who songs were used for all the CSI shows. The singer Roger Daltrey even played in an episode or two of the original CSI which was Las Vegas. This was the opening to that show. I think Won't Get Fooled Again was the opening for CSI: Miami and Baba O'Riley for CSI: NY. The Who also just released their updated "The Who Sell Out" yesterday and Pete Townshend is hosting Sirius Deep Tracks over the weekend. "Love, Reign O'er Me" is a really good song.

    This is their best track AND it was Pete Townsend's reaction to new punk groups like the Sex Pistols & The Clash (1977) calling out old rock bands for not doing anything new; so he did...
