Squeeze box. Mine and my late husbands song. R.I.P. Terry Alan Farmer. I'll always be your squeeze box. 5 years gone. What a sad life it is without you my love.😘😘🥰🥰
I used to dance with my colicky son to this song. It was on a cassette tape, so had to rewind it several times and replay it over and over. When I would stop he would fuss until I played it again and again.
I know this is a silly song compared to most of The Who's songs, but it's always been my fave. They're so legendary, they certainly have the right to be silly. Bet THIS 1 never gets used as a "CSI" opening theme, though!
Actually, the TV show "Two and a Half Men" spoofed CSI for one of their episodes (Fish in a Drawer) while Charlie Sheen was still with the show. Also starred Robert Wagner and Jenny McCarthy. They used "Squeeze Box as the theme, I think near the end of the show. George Eads made a cameo.

He's another one that's on another level from the countless other artists and bands that were fabulous in their own way but like Petes mates the stones and himself and the who etc it's no shame at all standing back in admiration and witnessing the greatest level of the rock world
Mama's got a squeeze box She wears on her chest And when daddy comes home He never gets no rest 'Cause she's playing all night And the music's all right Mama's got a squeeze box Daddy never sleeps at night Well the kids don't eat And the dog can't sleep There's no escape from the music In the whole damn street 'Cause she's playing all night And the music's all right Mama's got a squeeze box Daddy never sleeps at night She goes in and out and in And out and in and out and in and out She's playing all night And the music's all right Mama's got a squeeze box Daddy never sleeps at night She goes, squeeze me, come on and squeeze me Come on and tease me like you do I'm so in love with you Mama's got a squeeze box Daddy never sleeps at night She goes in and out and in and out And in and out and in and out 'Cause she's playing all night And the music's all right Mama's got a squeeze box Daddy never sleeps at night
I believe this is the show from Toronto, right? In any case, this was a major deal here in Canada as the final show of their "farewell" tour was at the legendary Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto. I remember recording it on VHS from a live television broadcast. Man, I wore that tape right out! Love the new waver fashions and haircuts that Pete and Roger are sporting too.
My great grandmother had 14 kids.! 10 boys 4 girls. Sorry this song was not Ready to be published Yet. I met almost all of great grandmothers kids . All but 4 . They were all fun lovers of family . Worked hard . Gave love to us.
Mental picture of a woman who has taken up the accordion and who plays it loudly and constantly. It makes her happy, so much so that they haven't the heart to ask her to stop.
I agree with you Sharp 1972 however its a Schecter Telecaster also made in California. Tom Keckler was their top luthier and he now lives and works in Memphis.
Guess my mind is in the gutter. I knew the first time when I heard the song, what they were referring!!! And yes, I knew it also was referring to an accordion, but with their play of words you knew which "box" they werent referring.
I think this song is supposed to be written from a child's point of view, and this is how the parents explained it to the kid.. lol "in and out and in and outtt" classic line
For years I thought he was singing about a women's mammary glands ! Just goes to show how gullible we can all be ! Now I'm reassured that the who ( whoever they the " who " is ) tell us it's about an accordion !
oh yeah, just saw them again on the Quadrophenia tour in Manchester last July....absolutely fucking brilliant! As for this gig...I watched it simulcast on tv/radio way back wnen....too bad they've never released a FULL DVD concert vic - the VHS one cuts a bunch of great songs out...x
Its about an accordian, even singing about how she wears it on her chest. Never once does the song elude to the idea thst they are talking about her pussy.
Whenever I play this song, my mom always gives me a dirty look and I say "IT'S A BOUT AN ACCORDIAN!!!" I'm not too convincing when he starts singing "She's goes in and out and in and out..."

1st song I ever got in trouble for listening to. I was 15. Still trying to convince my 81 yr old mama that its a song about an accordion 😂😂😂😂
🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣
Squeeze me grandma
When I was 9 I thought it was about an accordian 😂
When I was 9 I thought it was about an accordian 😂 my name is joanne btw
Good luck with that.
Squeeze box. Mine and my late husbands song. R.I.P. Terry Alan Farmer. I'll always be your squeeze box. 5 years gone. What a sad life it is without you my love.😘😘🥰🥰
What a sweet comment about your husband ! Every one deserves love like that !
Sorry for your loss. Sounds like you had a great life together.
Sorry for your loss but hold on to memories God bless you
Awww, I'm sorry, baby girl !! Such a sweet comment to your late great !! 😢♥️ Hugs !! 😍
Very good memories for ya!! A true two way street, when it comes to love, is something to be treasured!! Hang in there. ❤
One of, and most people don’t realize it, best love songs ever. Nuff said!
Crazy or not, this has always been one of my favorite songs.
Mine as well
Me too.

My Mama used to sing this song when I was little. I had no idea it was The Who. She always was cool like that.
Awesome 71 still love this tune
.......stunning video, of a stunning show...I especially liked the 9.4 second break by Peter....../s
Townshend's playing is so effortless. Just looks so natural
I'm 99% certain there is also a "ghost guitarist" not only Pete.
@@MonksonMotorbikes lol
Best live version of this song 🎸
One of their best A.M. radio top '40's era songs.....I remember it as a kid🎸😀
Possible correction: Weird Al covered it. With a squeezebox!
Love how at 1:48, Townsend puts his pick between his lips to finger pick the banjo part, then at 2:00 grabs it to use for the rest of his guitar solo.
Michael Rawlins he is the best !!!
Awesome
I recorded this on cassette when it was on the radio, still sounds good...
Amazing what we used to do with cassettes back then !! 😉✌🏻
You 're Absolutley Right. ❤ Perfect Song

@@derrickleblanc603 Wow, I didn't know that. Thanks for letting me know, & for your reply.
The Who are playing all night! And their music's all right!
I’m 63 & still listening 🎧
muy buen rola me gusto mucho su cancion eminence front alla x 1983 estaba en la secundaria me toco una epoca chida con estos cuates nunca la voy a olvidar
What a great song. I saw you guys back in your young days. Great entertainers
Pete's solo is awesome! what a musician!
He's another one that's on another level from the countless other artists and bands that were fabulous in their own way but like Petes mates the stones and himself and the who etc it's no shame at all standing back in admiration and witnessing the greatest level of the rock world
Mama's got a squeeze box
She wears on her chest
And when daddy comes home
He never gets no rest
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's all right
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night
Well the kids don't eat
And the dog can't sleep
There's no escape from the music
In the whole damn street
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's all right
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night
She goes in and out and in
And out and in and out and in and out
She's playing all night
And the music's all right
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night
She goes, squeeze me, come on and squeeze me
Come on and tease me like you do
I'm so in love with you
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night
She goes in and out and in and out
And in and out and in and out
'Cause she's playing all night
And the music's all right
Mama's got a squeeze box
Daddy never sleeps at night
Married sex with your husband is the best!
Love this song :)
Cause mamas taking care off daddy nuff said!
That was an impressive guitar solo by Pete!
I agree
sure did
The whole song's impressive mate. No
need for specifics. Settle for flattery.
One of the best solos he ever played
Pete could really play banjo after all. This is in my opinion his best recorded solo.

Heard this on SiriusXM 70s on 7 yesterday. 1st time for what seemed like a lifetime
Singing along while driving my 16 year old son to school.
Him: Is that song as dirty as I think it is?
Me: Oh, yeah!
This my favorite song by The Who.
Awesome song from a great band!
I like that song Mama's Got A Squeeze Box daddy never sleeps at night😅
I was 15 years old too when I got in trouble with this song

Gave love to us.
Praise God for happy Grammies . To inspire us to love and laughter.

Granny’s got a squeeze box, granny never sleeps at night
That was great, remember when 💯
Mental picture of a woman who has taken up the accordion and who plays it loudly and constantly. It makes her happy, so much so that they haven't the heart to ask her to stop.
The Tune says it all and makes it feel good too...
I'm trying to play it sitting down, and Kieth is jumping up and down! What a master!
Always loved this
i love the who and whatever the song means its awsome!
Pete Townsend what a music man
This song is crazy great
One of favourite who songs
Great song!!
I love this song!
I agree with you Sharp 1972 however its a Schecter Telecaster also made in California. Tom Keckler was their top luthier and he now lives and works in Memphis.
I think they're talking about an accordion
FREAKS AND GEEKS YESS
Emily Kurszewski yes, i started watching that show last Saturday and i loved it so much i finished it in 4 days and im going to watch it again soon
lindsay that song is pornigraphic "dad dont be a prude
"In and off,what it's going"lol
Golbez it's also a reference to a vagina
Brilliant. But I always think that Pete misses Keith being there.
Guess my mind is in the gutter. I knew the first time when I heard the song, what they were referring!!! And yes, I knew it also was referring to an accordion, but with their play of words you knew which "box" they werent referring.
My Late husband used to sing this to me all the time! But, He I am sure was thinking the same!! 😂😂😍
The Who are one of the greatest songs ever
Love this song!
Where did 50 year's Go ❤🎉
CLASSIC ! Townsend never sounded better.
jen
jenniferstackell Roger Daley is on vocals
I starting to think this song isn't about a Squeeze Box. 😜
First time i heard this song was my first time in a strip bar.. i was 17 lol. Great song Great memories
my most favourite Who song ever.
I think this song is supposed to be written from a child's point of view, and this is how the parents explained it to the kid.. lol "in and out and in and outtt" classic line
who first sang mommas got a squeezebox
Ms Crow, this is how it's suppose to be sung
Brilliant band.
love this song
Poor daddy, maybe he sleeps at work. LOL
This is just a great song.
When I watch this now I realize they were one empty shell of what the original Who was. Kinda' sad
Dang Kenney's arms tho
Grande los Who!!
When I was little, I thought this was a song about a woman with a torture devise that she put her husband in at night.
lol
shinobi1kenobi75 lol
Proverbs 5:15-21 . Drink At your own cisterns. Let her breasts always SATISFY !!
Words from Solomon.
So enjoy with the truth.
I love this song!!!
Very cool lead.
they could make a gem out of three simple chords
Just is NOT the same without Keith Moon. None of their songs. Moon made it signature and owned it.
they made that song look so simple
awesome song just learned how to play it at guitar lessons man pete is the best on guitar would love to have that shector
fuck yeah! I watched this video at least 50 times on VHS, drove my girl crazy....
THIS WAS AWESOME - THANKS LUCY FOR POST Ô¿Ô
This must be around the time Roger Daltrey would fight with the wind.
Awesome.Lol what if Mama had a chainsaw and daddy never slept all night
She goes in & out in & out...Fucking class..So c'mon Squeeze me like you do...
For years I thought he was singing about a women's mammary glands ! Just goes to show how gullible we can all be ! Now I'm reassured that the who ( whoever they the " who " is ) tell us it's about an accordion !

Funny song. Love it!
Let's get this straight. A Squeeze Box is an acordian. So, it's about an acordian.
Maybe a concertina
😂😂😂 Uh huh !! 😘🙋🏻♀️💋
Its about an accordian, even singing about how she wears it on her chest. Never once does the song elude to the idea thst they are talking about her pussy.
i have always thought they looked similar!! but this REALLY shows it!! :-p
@imdoubtful "The drummer playing in this video is beneath jones and moon"
Um...the drummer in this video IS Jones.
My fave WHO song
Wow what get Tune remembered it well
Best who song ever .😎
Sometimes, fret marking dots are on the SIDE of the neck not on the fretboard.
Negrea christian : Pete asks, " Do you wanna hear some more about it?" I always chuckle :)
The theme song to "Stiffs". 😀
This is how I like to dance around the house.
Fantastic song
beautiffull solo at 1.50. Nice song.
Hey I am Loria I love to dance to this song I love it in2022
Octorina small 8 sided with a small bellows. That's a squeeze box.
Might be using it for this song cause Telecasters can have that twangy country sound.
brilliant from the guys
Me too
Yes bro from pa i was in the fast food down the street y'all go bro and I am black
THE WHO IS GREAT EVERY TIME!! TOWNSHEND'S GONNA TRASH THE STAGE AGAIN!, the dj
Great Clip! Thanks for posting!!
My mom had a fit! And band me from singing it.😂
Whenever I play this song, my mom always gives me a dirty look and I say "IT'S A BOUT AN ACCORDIAN!!!" I'm not too convincing when he starts singing "She's goes in and out and in and out..."
