    The Who is one of those bands where you can tell exactly what decade it is just by how they are styled and dressed. Some bands are stuck in the same decade they broke through for their entire career, but the Who distinctly dressed and looked like they fit right into the style of every decade they performed together.

      The addition of the orchestra seemed to make the music come alive in an even more powerful manner. I fully admit to tearing up during some songs as the renditions were so freakin' beautiful. I saw it in Toronto and I think they had difficulty selling tickets due to the Raptors going all the way and the concert being rescheduled until October of 2019. Got our tickets for only $59 each!!!

    I'm Latina, came to this amazing Country many years ago, never ever heard this song before until I started dating my fiancé. Every time he said I was beautiful or he loved me or missed me, I used to hugged him hard, kissing his face annoyingly and say you better say that... then he started playing this song, saying it was my song. He passed away 2 months ago, since then, I haven't been able to go anywhere, I work from home, so I spend my days between my bedroom and my office. Today, I decided to go to the mall to return something and I was looking at a pretty dress, talking to him, saying I bet you would of like me to wear this for you, all of the sudden I felt like someone grabbed me, I turned around and there was nobody there, but noticed this song was playing.... I almost lost it! Oh God, I miss him.... Love you forever Guapo ❤ Until I see you again in Heaven, I guess 🙏🏻 RIP Jim 🙏🏻
