Dude, you got to do the studio version as well. It's a crisper, clearer version. Trust me you will not be disappointed. ua-cam.com/video/_NzLs-xSss0/v-deo.html
Roger Daltrey on vocals, Pete Townsend on lead guitar, and writer of the vast majority of the band's songs...the late great Keith Moon on drums and probably the greatest bass guitarist who ever lived, the late great John Entwhistle. What could possibly go wrong! The Who were one of the UK's greatest ever musical exports and one of the greatest live acts we ever produced.
We all think to remember 1970s music was so much better than today (and I include myself) and there's a lot of indeed great music and live music was actually live music: but it helps that we forget the majority of the garbage that was also released in the 60s and 70s... Won't give examples but just dig a bit around 😂❤❤
John "Ox" Entwhistle didn't move around on stage like Pete or Roger, but his fingers sure move. My favourite bass guitar player. Also called "Thunderfingers".
Keith Moon was an absolute one of a kind. Completely daft mind you, but we never minded his antics. And like most talented originals, gone far too soon.
Keith Moon, the drummer, was so wild on the drums he actually duct taped his headphones to his head to keep them from falling off while playing. Go back and watch it- you can see it in this video. He’s also considered one of the greatest drummers of all time. You MUST do “My Generation”. “Baba O’Reily” is another great one.
Do the Live version of "My Generation" from the Smothers Brothers TV Show in 1967. In that version you can see them all leave the greatest calling card of all time! Especially Keith. That show made them in the USA. The Who were the first band to start smashing their instruments. Lots of bands copied them.
Is anyone paying attention to the American presidential election? I am. The two candidates are the same? You lame weak puppet people who say they believe that are childish.
And THAT my young son....is where the term ROCK STAR came from. In every sense....songwriting, recording, musicianship and especially live performance...NOBODY has ever done it better! 🇬🇧
@@tracytomczak8390 : When your body refuses to comprehend it's just a video. I get it. I was there too, every reaction I see to this. All my friends then, whatever genre they were into (and that covers every major genre then) liked this song when it came out. I think it speaks to the reality of how Freedom is an ongoing process and how frustrating it can be, so it's best fought knowing we'll always be in the middle of that process.
When the light show ends and you hear the scream and Pete Townsend slides across the floor towards the camera in slow motion is the coolest moment in rock ever. IMHO. I get goose bumps every time.
The Who started the smashing. They were playing in a club with a low ceiling and Townsend broke the neck of his guitar hitting the ceiling, smashed up the rest of it and that was the beginning of the smashing. They're also THE catalyst of the stereotype of rock stars destroying hotel rooms - and driving cars into hotel swimming pools.
The Who were the first band to smash their instruments. And the first act to use Marshall amps (they helped design the speaker boxes) and the first to use really big amp stacks on stage. They were the first act to use lasers, and the first major rock act to use synthesisers as an instrument. Arguably the first punk band. They sounded like no other band before them and no other band has sounded anything like them since. One of the most influential bands of all time. Roger Daltrey: vocals, harmonica Pete Townshend: guitar, vocals (and primary songwriter) John Entwistle: bass, vocals, horns (and secondary songwriter) Keith Moon: drums Greatest. Band. Ever.
I couldn't begin to list these guys smash hits...but... "Baba O'Reilly" "My Generation" "Pinball Wizard" "Magic Bus" "Who Are You" "Love REign Oer Me" "I can't Explain" "You Better You Bet" ...so MANY more!!!! that was really fun!!!!!!
They started the breaking of instruments on stage. The windmill strum of the guitar, the swinging of the microphone cord and they are my number one favorite band of all time. Thank you for doing this. PLEASE READ THE LYRICS!!!!
Hey MollyBoyTV, There are many people, me among them, that consider this song, especially live, is the epitome of rock music. It's punk, defiant, political, angry, proud, and strong. There is not a musician of this era that did not hear this song and step up their game.
I am 72 years old and have loved The Who since "I Can See For Miles", which was their first singles released in the States. British Invasion indeed! It was a stone cold takeover of the rock music scene here!
Along with Led Zep and the Beatles, this is one of the very rare bands where all four members are famous. Daltry and Townsend grab your attention first, but Moon is a manic genius, and Entwistle stands still while Townsend and Daltry are everywhere, but his hands dance around that bass like mad. The studio version is worth a listen, post it or not, but the song is loud and complex enough that the clean audio is nice. Of course, that performance is something to behold, too, so not complaining about the live version.
Yeah, but I really thing Entwistle should have been even more recognized. Really great bass players are not common. We must appreciate them when we can.
Not sure John Paul Jones would be recognised by the general public, when you say every member of the band is famous. But, all members from the bands you mention are all-time greats. Personally I'd add Queen, and in my book it's a three way tie or three way discussion, between The Who, Led Zeppelin, and Queen, for the greatest rock band. Greatest rock and roll band is The Rolling Stones. The Beatles are, of course, the greatest ever band. Imo.
@@MikePhillips-pl6ov John said with Roger swinging the mic around, Pete running all over the place and swinging his arm around and Keith just everywhere, it was best for him to stay out of the way!
Quadrophenia changed all our lives Mollyboy these tunes and reactions will make you a millionaire 😊 the British scooter scene is the biggest in the world keep it up
Time to take a trip back to the 60’s and listen to British bands like The Who, The Kinks, Rolling Stones, Small Faces and The Beatles, etc when they were just starting out. The way they all evolved in just a few years is incredible.
As a 62 year old, I can't tell you what a pleasure it is for me to see you enjoy this music in the same way when we first listened to it 50 years ago for the first time!
Isn't Molly Boy English? I don't understand how it's possible never to have heard this. Even if it's not his style of music, it must be played everywhere still.
I agree. It's really amazing that the, I think, the 3 greatest bands in history,Beatles,Stones, and the Who, all came out at roughly the same time from the UK about 60 years ago!!!!
Pete Townsend (guitar) and Roger Daltry (vocals) are still with us, Molly. Keith Moon (drums) and John Entwistle (bass) have passed on. Each one is a master, if not THE master, of what they did. The Who is in the same stratosphere as the Stones, Led Zep, and the Beatles. And they’re at their peak here!
If you'll notice, they had to tape the drummer's (Keith Moon) headphones on his head because he moved around so much they would fly off. Check out, "Love rain o're me" The original recording. Your reactions are great, Bro. PJ
One of my favorite Album's "Tommy" and "Pinball Wizard" Great song. Roger Daltry one of the great performers, he really puts on a good show!😅 the movie Tommy with the Who, Sir Elton John, Tina Turner and more the Who was really on the top in the 60's & 70's they were really the rage at Woodstock 1969. Peace☮️ your 70 year old forever Young Hippie Gary😊 Great Reaction👍 😊✌️
This great grandma is so enjoying your channel. I get to be Young inside and happy and free from an old body that don’t work no more. Thank you. Young man you are going to grow in so many ways and your understanding of music is only going to get better and better.
I’m only a grand at 70, but I could have written EVERY WORD that you did. I’m also having fun watching MB. I would love showing this to my grandchildren if it weren’t for the language.
Smashing stuff???? The Who, 1967, The Smothers Brothers TV show, Keith had some explosive in his bass drum exploded - permanently damaging Pete's hearing. Fun times.
Oh yes!!! Smothers Brothers 'My Generation' will BLOW YOUR MIND!!!! (Also known to cause power outages and fainting spells) 😂😂😂 Love the intro..."My friends call me Keith, you can call me John"
I saw them in 1967 at The Fillmore East. Keith Moon had "Glow in the Dark" drumsticks, and when the lights were turned off, all you could see was the sticks dancing across the drum kit. Then of course, the kit exploded. He was THE Wild Man of the drums , and the band rocked. I loved their pre- Tommy period, especially the album, "The Who Sell Out"!
The lead singer Roger Daltrey is 80 years old and still performing! He is not only a singer but an accomplished actor too. He has acted in 49 plus movies. Two of my favorites is Tommy and The Legacy.
And they didn't kill each other, but only because Pete knew to not push Roger too hard, and everybody knew not to push the Ox, and Keith was too busy killing himself with booze and drugs.
I was lucky enough to see them live on four occasions, including once at the old Wembley Stadium; I had been comped and viewed from the Royal Box (albeit no Royals being present) where I got into a brawl with a drunken Scotsman! I have to say however, that their best performance I saw was at the old Valley football ground (capacity 90,000), home of Charlton Athletic F.C. in (I think) 1975 where they also utilised lasers, The Who being the first private owners of laser technology in the UK. It was epic!
These guys were crazy back in the day! Wrecking their equipment, partying super hard, beating the hell out of each other and all the while being insanely talented!
????? I figured of all people, YOU would have been a huge fan of Keith Moon!! The man was great, sense of humor that was just outrageous, and he didn't play the drums....he ATTACKED them!! One of the top 3 best drummers of all time. Great reaction, kiddo!!!!
I watched a UA-cam short yesterday. Alice Cooper saying that only 30% of what we've heard about him, Ozzy Osbourne and Marilyn Manson is true, but everything we've heard about Keith Moon is true, and we've only heard 10%. Said Moon came to stay with him, Alice and wife came home to find Moon in a French maid outfit dusting.😊
They are loud, they are ripping, they are legends. Royalty. Watching your face from the "scream and slide" to the end was so incredible. You knew you had entered a new realm of rock awesomeness. Welcome!
One of the greatest demonstrations of all time on how to properly rock and roll. These lads are from your neighborhood as well, MB. Somewhere on that bloody island. You're surrounded by greatness. They prob live a few blocks from you, RIGHT NOW!! Imagine finding Roger Daultry and getting him to come on your channel??? You'd be a legend, bro.
They are probably about 100 miles away, but yes. I saw a very young band from Las Vegas (The Dollheads) at a small gig in Woking, and said that The Jam were from Woking, and Keith Moon lived a few miles away near Chertsey. A ton of rock stars (including John Lennon at one time) lived a few miles north in the Ascot/Sunningdale area. Away from music, the Pizza Express used by Prince Andrew as an alibi was 100 yards up the road from the venue.
@@RevStickleback I suppose I'm just thinking like an American when I say they are prob MB's neighbors. 100 miles is nothing in the States, as you prob know.
Man i really really love your Rewinds, like you're allowing yourself to absorb the most of the song. We heard this shi hundreds of times, why can't you just listen twice???? Anyway, i hope you read this, i love your reactions. Don't twist your essence for anyone. Music is awesome, let's fuckin goooo
Keith Moon was a BEAST on the drums....John Entwistle on BASS (known as Thunderfingers)....Roger Daltrey on vocals, and Pete Townshend on guitar - OMG: ALL these guys are JUST SO EXTREMELY TALENTED!! SO MANY BANGERS!!! ENJOY!!!
I remember being a sophomore in high school and I went to the Who in 1976 in St. Paul, MN with a friend. I thought that our seats behind the stage were going to stink but OMG!! We were about 8 feet above the level of the stage behind the drums and I'll never forget Roger Daltrey and the iconic microphone swing! Best seats in the house! 😁 Great times! Great review!😊❤ Deep rabbit hole there!😉
The Who-A Quick One (while he’s away) live at The Rolling Stones Rock n Roll Circus is in my top 3 live performances of all time and literally changed my life seeing it as a teenager, Other great one is Grand Funk Railroad - Inside looking out live from 1969.
In that performance, when they play "Forgiven", the backing vocals they sing are "cello cello cello cello" as a dig at their management who had refused to shell out for cellists!
My favorite thing about the Who is that you have Keith Moon, absolute Madman on the drums, Pete Townsend, another absolute madman on guitar, Roger Daltrey on vocals like the Golden Rock God he was, and then theres John Entwistle , also a god on the bass, but just kinda chillin and enjoying the groove.
I saw the Who in your home town MollyBoy at the NEC. It still stands out as one of the best concerts I've been to. They have so many great performances, Woodstock being one of them, and so many hit songs. Yet another brilliant band to emerge from this country in the 60s.
Pete Townsend, first known musician to smash up his guitar on stage - 1964. He must have enjoyed it. Drummer Keith Moon was a maniac. Joe Walsh (the somewhat nuts guitarist with the bandana on Eagles Hotel California vid you've reacted to) said the scariest thing that ever happened to him was when Keith decided he liked him. Moon used to smash through hotel walls to ask the person on the other side if they'd like to drink with him. Check out the YT vid of them in the studio doing "Who Are You?" - it's great and their personalities really show through. But they've got a massive catalogue. They've always been the working lad's version of rock. LIke they just rolled out of the pub and decided to either do a song or find a fight.
The greatest thing about being old is I got to see some great bands and yes that means the Who who've I seen a number of times they've been going strong since the sixties
The Who, are incredible. 🤘 Please react to loads of them. Bargain, is my favourite song. But there's so many bangers. Behind Blue Eyes, is a different softer side. Eminence Front, is a groovy eighties dance track. And, Love Reign O'er Me, is something else entirely. Probably a good one to do down the road. Cheers man.
Never forget your countrymen brought that to the world. In America, the blues were played and heard. The British took that and gave us so very much. Thank you for reacting to The Who!!!
So glad you liked it. I saw them a few years back. Older now, not smashing guitars, but still exceptional. Hope you get to experience any part of them live. They've adapted to age and are still exceptional.
I saw The Who 5 times and I saw them do this song 3 times. Keith was still alive for 4 of the 5 shows. All of the shows were cataclysmic. Your reaction to this performance was fun to watch. They are one of the absolute superstar Rock bands. I was curious what you would think of them. In my heart I knew you'd like them because you have that rock and glint in your eyes. Cheers to you, MollyBoy, from Boston, USA.
Pete Townshend is the originator of the windmill move and with breaking up the instruments and such. My favorite of theirs is Love Reign O'er Me. They really have a lot of outstanding music.
Eddie Vedder has always said that The Who, Pete Townshend in particular, saved his life. Oh, and Keith Moon was the inspiration for Animal, the muppet drummer.
It took you long enough! Roger and Pete, the lead singer and the lead guitar player were always trying to outdo each other, they had tons of fun when they were on stage! The drummer is so energetic he has to tape his headphones to his head! Not a bad light show for the 1970's hey! You have a deep dive with this catalog!
Lmaolmaolollol, just laughing my ass off and grinning from ear-to-ear at your reaction at each next thing. So many iconic moments here. And such a heavy influence in so many different directions to especially alternative bands and punk bands emerging a bit later. Definitely check out the studio version of this at some point but dang, man, it's such a deep rabbit hole, because they had a lot of hits early on in the late sixties. And then they just kept getting bigger and bigger and they were a household name in the US easily by the early seventies, and all over the world. At least as early as I can remember as a little kid. They have so many incredible hits and songs and fan favorites along the way - it's impossible man, there's just so much. Baba O'Riley might be a good one for you to check out next. And it's a huge favorite and so I know it would do well. But really there are so many.
This reaction made my day. This is the Who...100% every song.. every time...every member....high energy and LOUD! Known for smashing instruments and hotel rooms....so much documented mayhem and mind blowing music!
Your face when Roger Daltry screamed - OMG - PRICELESS!! I was waiting for that! Brilliant reaction - as always! Geddy Lee (Rush) named this song when asked what song he wishes he would have written ... the Who were one of his favorite and most influential bands
...and there is is, the most famous scream in the history of Rock'n'Roll!
immigrant song, imo...
Dude, you got to do the studio version as well. It's a crisper, clearer version. Trust me you will not be disappointed. ua-cam.com/video/_NzLs-xSss0/v-deo.html

@@freddiejamscat Huh, did not know that.
Best non-metal scream ever recorded IMO
Every person of age was on the edge of their seat waiting in anticipation for you to hear that iconic scream.
LMAO....I FF'd just to get to it! 🤣🤣🤘
And Townsend's knee slide
The ending credit soundtrack to "CSI Miami"
“Person of age” is a kind way of saying “old as shit”. I feel attacked. Not really.😅
Roger Daltrey on vocals, Pete Townsend on lead guitar, and writer of the vast majority of the band's songs...the late great Keith Moon on drums and probably the greatest bass guitarist who ever lived, the late great John Entwhistle. What could possibly go wrong! The Who were one of the UK's greatest ever musical exports and one of the greatest live acts we ever produced.

He was the Ox, indeed.

The Who were the first band to smash their instruments. And the first act to use Marshall amps (they helped design the speaker boxes) and the first to use really big amp stacks on stage. They were the first act to use lasers, and the first major rock act to use synthesisers as an instrument. Arguably the first punk band. They sounded like no other band before them and no other band has sounded anything like them since. One of the most influential bands of all time.

@KenPearsonPearsonsPicks I thought I was going to have to wait a lot longer for him to do this one. I'm very happy this happened today
My first exposure to the WHO’s music was when a friend let me borrow his “Live at Leeds” album in the early 70’s.
I haven’t been the same since !
Swinging the mic by its cord and slinging it in the air was Roger Daltry’s signature move.

Another classic. The Who - "Behind Blue Eyes" and "Love Reign O'r Me" next.
Of all things The Who's song behind blue eyes had a fantastic cover by limp biszkat. So please also check that one out one day.

@@wadehines9971 Pete and Roger had physical fights. Roger usually won them though... they were Mods from Shepherd's Bush, good ol' West London Boys!
I was lucky enough to see them live on four occasions, including once at the old Wembley Stadium; I had been comped and viewed from the Royal Box (albeit no Royals being present) where I got into a brawl with a drunken Scotsman! I have to say however, that their best performance I saw was at the old Valley football ground (capacity 90,000), home of Charlton Athletic F.C. in (I think) 1975 where they also utilised lasers, The Who being the first private owners of laser technology in the UK. It was epic!
These guys were crazy back in the day! Wrecking their equipment, partying super hard, beating the hell out of each other and all the while being insanely talented!
????? I figured of all people, YOU would have been a huge fan of Keith Moon!! The man was great, sense of humor that was just outrageous, and he didn't play the drums....he ATTACKED them!! One of the top 3 best drummers of all time. Great reaction, kiddo!!!!
I watched a UA-cam short yesterday. Alice Cooper saying that only 30% of what we've heard about him, Ozzy Osbourne and Marilyn Manson is true, but everything we've heard about Keith Moon is true, and we've only heard 10%.
Said Moon came to stay with him, Alice and wife came home to find Moon in a French maid outfit dusting.😊
Keith Moon's drumming style was so bombastic that he didn't use Hi-Hats, just Ride and Crash cymbals!
"Moon the Loon"
Pause and rewind all you want, my brother. This is one of the great anthems in the history of rock and roll.
They are loud, they are ripping, they are legends. Royalty.
Watching your face from the "scream and slide" to the end was so incredible. You knew you had entered a new realm of rock awesomeness. Welcome!
One of the greatest demonstrations of all time on how to properly rock and roll. These lads are from your neighborhood as well, MB. Somewhere on that bloody island. You're surrounded by greatness. They prob live a few blocks from you, RIGHT NOW!! Imagine finding Roger Daultry and getting him to come on your channel??? You'd be a legend, bro.
They’re from London. I think Molly Boy is more northern. .
They are probably about 100 miles away, but yes. I saw a very young band from Las Vegas (The Dollheads) at a small gig in Woking, and said that The Jam were from Woking, and Keith Moon lived a few miles away near Chertsey. A ton of rock stars (including John Lennon at one time) lived a few miles north in the Ascot/Sunningdale area. Away from music, the Pizza Express used by Prince Andrew as an alibi was 100 yards up the road from the venue.
@@TheDivayenta That's why I said, "somewhere on that bloody island". Everyone is a neighbor compared to the US.
@@RevStickleback I suppose I'm just thinking like an American when I say they are prob MB's neighbors. 100 miles is nothing in the States, as you prob know.
@@snakeinthegrass7443 Yeah. England has 57 million people in an area almost exactly the same size as Alabama.
Their 1971 album, "Who's Next" has always been one of my favorites and includes many hits including the one you just displayed.
Oh wow. This is what Rock stars can only dream they could have been like
Man i really really love your Rewinds, like you're allowing yourself to absorb the most of the song.
We heard this shi hundreds of times, why can't you just listen twice????
Anyway, i hope you read this, i love your reactions. Don't twist your essence for anyone.
Music is awesome, let's fuckin goooo
You should listen to "Baba O'Riley" next. It'll make your head spin. :D
FOR SURE!!
You know it's a great tune when Pearl Jam covers it at almost every show for YEARS ❤
The real name of that song ought to be "Teenage Wasteland".
@ says every single person that has ever heard it. But it's not.
Yep. That's how we rocked back in the 70's.
Pete Townsend !!!!! Another great !!!! ❤
The Who were the dog's bollocks. Unmatched. Unequalled. Unsurpassed.
You need to check out the Movie... Tommy......a real Rockstar Movie.😎
Keith Moon was a BEAST on the drums....John Entwistle on BASS (known as Thunderfingers)....Roger Daltrey on vocals, and Pete Townshend on guitar - OMG: ALL these guys are JUST SO EXTREMELY TALENTED!! SO MANY BANGERS!!! ENJOY!!!
They were innovators. You're right, each one of them gave 100% all the time, they were known for it
For Daltry being pint sized he sure has a GIANT voice. John Entwistle is always a treat to listen to.
I remember being a sophomore in high school and I went to the Who in 1976 in St. Paul, MN with a friend. I thought that our seats behind the stage were going to stink but OMG!! We were about 8 feet above the level of the stage behind the drums and I'll never forget Roger Daltrey and the iconic microphone swing! Best seats in the house! 😁 Great times! Great review!😊❤ Deep rabbit hole there!😉
The Who-A Quick One (while he’s away) live at The Rolling Stones Rock n Roll Circus is in my top 3 live performances of all time and literally changed my life seeing it as a teenager, Other great one is Grand Funk Railroad - Inside looking out live from 1969.
I've suggested the Grand Funk .. that performance is epic!
This !!!
In that performance, when they play "Forgiven", the backing vocals they sing are "cello cello cello cello" as a dig at their management who had refused to shell out for cellists!
My favorite thing about the Who is that you have Keith Moon, absolute Madman on the drums, Pete Townsend, another absolute madman on guitar, Roger Daltrey on vocals like the Golden Rock God he was, and then theres John Entwistle , also a god on the bass, but just kinda chillin and enjoying the groove.
The who are amazing and i dont lie when i say they are amazing and are full of great songs, such as behind blue eyes and my generation🔥🤘
I saw the Who in your home town MollyBoy at the NEC. It still stands out as one of the best concerts I've been to. They have so many great performances, Woodstock being one of them, and so many hit songs. Yet another brilliant band to emerge from this country in the 60s.
Every "be kind and rewind" was Perfect!
Pete Townsend, first known musician to smash up his guitar on stage - 1964. He must have enjoyed it. Drummer Keith Moon was a maniac. Joe Walsh (the somewhat nuts guitarist with the bandana on Eagles Hotel California vid you've reacted to) said the scariest thing that ever happened to him was when Keith decided he liked him. Moon used to smash through hotel walls to ask the person on the other side if they'd like to drink with him. Check out the YT vid of them in the studio doing "Who Are You?" - it's great and their personalities really show through. But they've got a massive catalogue. They've always been the working lad's version of rock. LIke they just rolled out of the pub and decided to either do a song or find a fight.
Yesssssss! Bought my first Who album (Who's Next) in 1971 and love them still. Roger Daltry and Pete Townsend are amazing 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
The greatest thing about being old is I got to see some great bands and yes that means the Who who've I seen a number of times they've been going strong since the sixties
One of the best bands you will ever hear.
The Who, are incredible. 🤘 Please react to loads of them. Bargain, is my favourite song. But there's so many bangers. Behind Blue Eyes, is a different softer side. Eminence Front, is a groovy eighties dance track. And, Love Reign O'er Me, is something else entirely.
Probably a good one to do down the road.
Cheers man.
Never forget your countrymen brought that to the world. In America, the blues were played and heard. The British took that and gave us so very much. Thank you for reacting to The Who!!!
So glad you liked it.
I saw them a few years back. Older now, not smashing guitars, but still exceptional.
Hope you get to experience any part of them live. They've adapted to age and are still exceptional.
One of the greatest bands ever!
I saw The Who 5 times and I saw them do this song 3 times. Keith was still alive for 4 of the 5 shows. All of the shows were cataclysmic.
Your reaction to this performance was fun to watch. They are one of the absolute superstar Rock bands.
I was curious what you would think of them. In my heart I knew you'd like them because you have that rock and glint in your eyes.
Cheers to you, MollyBoy, from Boston, USA.
Yessssssss! Thank you @Mollyboy! ❤ These guys are the definition of the word rockstar, and their music is pure Rock n Roll.
Oh and next, Baba O’Reilly, but the studio version!
You can't miss out on "The Who". There seems to be people who won't let you miss out.
Pete Townshend is the originator of the windmill move and with breaking up the instruments and such. My favorite of theirs is Love Reign O'er Me. They really have a lot of outstanding music.
Keith Moon has his headset duct taped to his head. Love it.
Los ponía con una cinta adhesiva para mantener su pelo ordenado, jajajaja 🤣🤣...lo sigo adorando, aunque era hiperkinetico y algo depresivo 😢
I love it! Yeeeaaahhh! The original punk band. Also one of the first to incorporate the new synth ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The music back then was simply pure talent and amazing. This band is great! Enjoy, MOLLYBOY💙 GO DOWN THAT RABBIT HOLE✌️
i'm very excited for you. you've never heard the freakin who! omg. you're so lucky to have it all ahead of you. love them.
Eddie Vedder has always said that The Who, Pete Townshend in particular, saved his life. Oh, and Keith Moon was the inspiration for Animal, the muppet drummer.
I'm so glad you like The Who. They started out over 50 years ago and they kept us dancing and jumping for decades.
It took you long enough! Roger and Pete, the lead singer and the lead guitar player were always trying to outdo each other, they had tons of fun when they were on stage! The drummer is so energetic he has to tape his headphones to his head! Not a bad light show for the 1970's hey! You have a deep dive with this catalog!
Thank you for the heart, I appreciate it!
I hope you like them so you want to listen to their song behind blue eyes.. I think its their best song
Easily my favorite Who song. Nice taste.
Behind Blue Eyes is mellow-er. You hear the vocals and melodies. It isn't just all out rock. It shows their depth. Highly recommend!
My fave as well ❤️
Bassist, John Entwistle,went solo...great tunes👍🏼👍🏼
It's time to go down the rabbit hole!!
Lmaolmaolollol, just laughing my ass off and grinning from ear-to-ear at your reaction at each next thing. So many iconic moments here. And such a heavy influence in so many different directions to especially alternative bands and punk bands emerging a bit later.
Definitely check out the studio version of this at some point but dang, man, it's such a deep rabbit hole, because they had a lot of hits early on in the late sixties. And then they just kept getting bigger and bigger and they were a household name in the US easily by the early seventies, and all over the world. At least as early as I can remember as a little kid.
They have so many incredible hits and songs and fan favorites along the way - it's impossible man, there's just so much.
Baba O'Riley might be a good one for you to check out next. And it's a huge favorite and so I know it would do well. But really there are so many.
Love Reign O’Er Me should be next on your upcoming Who journey. Epic song and perhaps the greatest rock vocal performance ever
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ The Who! I was there and this is time travel for me!
They are amazing.. keep going with the reactions.. so many brilliant songs!!! British bands are incredible.
This reaction made my day. This is the Who...100% every song.. every time...every member....high energy and LOUD! Known for smashing instruments and hotel rooms....so much documented mayhem and mind blowing music!
I knew you'd love this one. They're rocking out. I was lucky enough to see them live, awesome concert. This song is a favorite of mine
Their bassist and drummer both have claim to be in the conversation for best of all time
Love Reign o'er Me is absolute 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Roger Daltrey's vocals are insane!!
Your face when Roger Daltry screamed - OMG - PRICELESS!! I was waiting for that! Brilliant reaction - as always! Geddy Lee (Rush) named this song when asked what song he wishes he would have written ... the Who were one of his favorite and most influential bands
WHO? The Who that's WHO!!!
