I love that I remember every word to these songs. All of them, but I couldn’t remember if I ate today...

The Who are FANTASTIC. Their rabbit hole is awesome,,,,the deeper the better,,,,👍🔥👍🔥👍😎 Long Live Rock,,,💥💥💥

'My dreams aren't as empty, as my conscience seems to be.' Such meaningful words in my life.

You know what's really fun? Knowing what's coming up, and also knowing you have no clue. That makes for a great reaction, as it should!

The Who have done a lot more than rock songs. You have many many years of material....but if you want to hear a song written & sung by Pete Townsend that will touch your heart and see he is so much more than that - then listen to this from one of his solo albums - a track called "And I Moved" - It's about after the death of Keith Moon & reduces me to tears everytime.....Behind Blue Eyes is such a wonderful track. Thankyou for choosing it.

One of the greatest songs ever written from one of the greatest records ever made.

Close to the Edge, down by the river...............YES.

Tears..goosebumps...that’s rock 🤟

I Love that young people are so blown away by this GREAT music that we had and that will never happen again. It can't ,there is no one really as good as this era, and the artists of the 70's

At Last.!!!😃 Have been with you guys from the start. Waiting for you to dig into some Who classics. Try Won't get fooled again or Barbara o reply. I hope you will listen to the Masterpieces QUADROPHENIA and TOMMY from start to finish. It will blow you away boys I do so enjoy watching your reactions and education of good music. I WAS LUCKY TO BE BORN TO SEE THE LIKES OF PINK FLOYD DIRE STRAITS LIVE. YOU REMIND ME HOW SPECIAL IT WAS TO HEAR THESE BANDS FOR THE FIRST. I ENVY YOU OF THE GOLD THAT IS WAITING TO BE DISCOVERED FOR YOU BOTH😄 (p.s.Alvin Lee. The bluest blue . Think you need to hear it😉 THANK YOU For letting me share your discoveries especially now you have unearthed Dire Straits. Happy Easter from England and all of you stay safe😷

Growing up with this music was great..so free back in the late 60s and 70s

Every song on "Who's Next" is a classic. The album is one of their masterpieces. The whole song is The Who, that is Pete Townsend's genius.

Seeing them LIVE is something I can never forget ... I experienced The Who at the Cow Palace, Oakland, CA, early 70's 😊👌

You just have to realize that you don't have to understand every lyric every time! Just go with it and enjoy it for the genius that it is!🙂

Love you guys reacting to the WHO! I was at the official launch of the Who's Next album when they opened the new rock concert hall The Rainbow in London and, of course, blew us all away, especially on the synthesiser driven tracks of Baba O'Riley and Wont Get Fooled Again; which always blows you away live! I figured Behind Blues Eyes was Roger's song because of his amazing blue eyes... The Who, great live, great on albums...

Just let the video go and talk after...that way you don't have to worry about when to pause it or when not to pause it. Just let it go, it's more enjoying to listen to!! 🧡 YES...ROUNDABOUT...Guaranteed HIT!! You guys will LOVE IT!! Just let it go!! 😁

Amazing vocal performance by Roger Daltrey, expresses such a wide range of emotions. Great that you guys noticed the phenomenal background vocals and harmonies. Now you have to do Who Are You, the unedited version!

See Me, Feel Me is a great song by them, always loved it! I think you two would enjoy it!Keep On Rockin`

The Who ~ "Who are You"...! "I woke up in SoHo doorway, a policeman knew my name..."

This is my second favorite Who song. Just love it. "Love Reign O'er Me" is awesome too. Thanks, Bro's.❤🇨🇦

Hi Patrick and George you handsome guys. No one will ever be GREATER than the BeeGee ever ever ever Oct11 2022 Tuesday

This song and most of the songs on Who's Next were originally part of a massive concept album that Townshend was writing called "Lifehouse." The project proved too daunting to pull off so The Who decided to release selected songs instead.

Fantastic track - The Who were such an incredible band.

You need to listen to the whole album it will make sense. Love you guys Liking the music I grew up on.

WELCOME TO THE WHO. 🇬🇧 I’ve seen them live twice AMAZING.

I gotta admit, this is probably my favorite song by them.

Bargain is another amazing song by them. 🎧🔥

The Who are always included in a discussion of the most important bands in rock history. In 1964 they were combining contemporary African American music with European avant-garde art concepts. They can rock as hard as the Stones (although they don't roll as well!), and they can absolutely be as Britishsweet as the Kinks. While many people praise them for their concept albums and 'opera', what makes them so brilliant to me is that you don't have to know any of the stories to get the songs. They are magnificent, fierce, breath-holding and brutish on their own. Don't get me wrong; Quadrophenia is always going to be a high point in music for me (I actually have the LP still, with the photos). But there are songs on both Quadrophenia and Who's Next that can make you cry, or make you rock out with orgasmic abandon without knowing the backstory. I'm not sure how much this particular song was involved in Lighthouse, but it just proves the point... FYI: the documentary The Kids Are Alright is really a must-see for rock fans, a wonderful way to get the basic education on this band that was a little bit different and a lot bit great. By the way, I wrote this before watching your review-I know you'll really be moved: I've loved this song since I was about 13 years old.

It's great to hear that Patrick is playing guitar. He really does have a good voice, and he captures these styles very quickly, without any background in singing rock songs. Get it going while you are young. Jim Morrison had no experience either, and look how it worked out for him. As for Pete Townshend, there is a large back story there. Mostly, it was The Kinks Ray Davies who sparked him to write these introspective songs. Ray was the best British songwriter of them all and he never had to pretend that he was from anywhere else!

This album works wonders for those who listened 50+ years earlier. Time makes it better.

Yes! One of my all time favorites 💯

This is about someone who fought in the war. The story through his eyes. Listen again to the lyrics. My dreams aren’t as empty as my conscience seems to be. Watch over each other. If I shiver give me a blanket. Listen again. Thanks for everything guys. Appreciate you.

In 1970 our music teacher said it was time for a change from classical music and played the Who - Tommy album, amazing!

When they took the stage for the Concert for New York for the 9/11 tragedy they blew all the other acts away - even the Stones! It was 2001 & they were older; but Wow!!

You guys need to try some of the awesome songs from ‘Quadrophenia’ and ‘Tommy’. Also ‘I Can See For Miles’ one of their earliest hits (67-68)

My son recently sang this at his HS talent show..never been prouder more who classics... "The Seeker You Better You Bet" "Squeeze Box"

Daltry made a punk out of the other British front men of his time. That voice could go high, then turn to gravel. Pure gold.

This is a beautiful song from The Who, I can't remember hearing it before but I think I must have. It was on their Who's Next album released in 1971. Very melodic and a bit emotional, the lyrics are quite dark and I think can be interpreted in different ways. Other songs by The Who - Substitute, I Can't Explain and Pinball Wizard. Loads more of course. Good luck with your guitar playing and singing, Patrick, keep us up to date with how you're getting on. Yes, it is great that you have this second channel where other types of music can be reacted to, and other content as well which makes it more flexible if you like. This channel, as you say, is for classic rock music which is why I certainly subscribed! Many thanks, guys for this reaction, cheers.

I saw the Who in concert..so awesome dude

Love this song 🤘you need to listen to BARGAIN.

Hoping one day you guys will be reacting to FOCUS to their great and mind blowing " Hocus Pocus "

Watch the Who - Young Man Blues - Isle of Wight 1970 live, music to make a twenty year old happy as I was then.

From the album “ Who’s Next”...one of the best albums of all time.Back when this was written in the 70’s ,songs would not be played much on the radio if they lasted over 4 minutes...unfortunately.

Pete’s an amazing songwriter

The other side of The Who always amazing

5:15 is one of their best Tunes, a guaranteed Banger!

So many of your reactions are to British (specifically English) bands - The Who, The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Queen, Elton John, The Animals, The Bee Gees, Oasis, Black Sabbath, Genesis, Cream, Dire Straits, David Bowie, Deep Purple, The Police, Radiohead etc etc etc. Very proud to be English 😃

Love what you do - & Discovering music is a journey - Not a destination. Enjoy the journey as we are enjoying it with you.

Such a great song. Probably my fave by the Who -- along with Eminence Front. Guys, if you haven't already, you MUST listen to Sympathy for the Devil by the Rolling Stones. Tells an amazing story. If you can find the video that has the lyrics, like this one does, it's even better.

LIKE THAT FRAME PHOTO OF THE BAND BEHIND YOU, THAT'SSSSS EARLY EARLY WHO, 64-65 WHO :) MY GENERATION, MAGIC BUS, CAN'T EXPLAIN! THERE'S 3 FOR YOU GEORGE AND PATRICK! :)

Guys, I'm new to your channel. Watch "The Who The Real me Live at the Royal Albert Hall" They are older here, Keith Moon died, Ringo Starr (Beatles) son Zak Starkey is the drummer. AMAZING LIVE show. They rocked harder at 60 years old than most bands in their 20s. You'll love it!

A quick one while he's away , Pinball Wizard , I don't even know myself , Magic bus , Substitute , Happy jack It's cool if you react

Who-style was also different! Go to their rock-opera Tommy and check out 'See Me, Feel Me'. And absolutely a must is their trademark song, called 'My Generation'!

It`s already been suggested but "Young Man Blues" live at the IOW 1970 is a must see.

We were just teenagers having friends over, turning our strobe lights on to psychedelic posters, dropping a album down and contemplating the same thing guys!! Lol

Took my son to see “ a great guitarist “. The ticket read - Eric Clapton, with special guest Roger Daltry. Had no clue we would get an entire set from Roger Daltry.....my son heard legends that night, the look on his face- priceless. ❤️🎼love music and 🤘 rock on. Singing along.....warms my heart every time .....please keep singing! Great reaction!

Hope you guys will get to Steely Dan one day.

If you're digging prog, then Emerson, Lake & Palmer is a necessary rabbit hole to fall down. "Trilogy" or "The Endless Enigma" (all three parts, totaling around 10 minutes) will give you a good taste of what they're about, and then you can hit "Tarkus" or "Karn Evil 9" when you're in the mood for a marathon.

Glad you are back with some more Who, take a listen to The Real Me, an education in bass guitar supremacy

The Who has so many great songs.....love all of em 💗. This song is so awesome as it's sad 😓. Would love to see your reaction to Tommy Pinball Wizard 💖🎶

This is exactly how I feel Lol 😳💖🙏

The lyrics are from the mind of Pete Townsend. He wrote all the Who's songs. He had definate opinions about society, the Vietnam War, everything.

My favorite Who’s. Blue, brown, green ... eyes....the world makes it really hard to to keep the fists unclench. For every angry young men, for the disenfranchised, for the lost boys....

Yea. Keep going. The Who is in top 5 in just about everyone's list.

Love Reign Oe'r Me is my favorite Who song. This one is a close second.

The scooter boys,the follow on from the mods,always had that target on their parkas We always had a few batteries in our jackets,made it easy to line them up when they drove thru our town on their way to a scooter rally My old man was a rocker,myself heavy rock,old rivalry

Great song. Great reaction. I enjoyed it. Thanks.

Sugarloaf > Song is - Green-Eyed Lady.. I think you guys will like if you not yet heard.. "Green-eyed lady, ocean lady Child of nature, friend of man" 1970.. Chill smooth funky groove..

Lots of songs from this period were shorter 3-4 minutes to meet the demands of commercial radio format of 3 songs in 10-12 minutes followed by 3-5 minutes of commercials. This is also why songs of this period are also likely to fade out since it made it easier for radio disc jockeys to blend into the next song.

You guys still need to see them live. I suggest Young Man Blues from Isle of Wight festival in 1970.

For the the same intensity, Four Non Blondes What’s Up and Springsteen and Tom Morello performance of Ghost of Tom Joad at the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame 25th anniversary. Oh, and Hunger Strike by two legends.

Who's Next is a masterpiece.

Love the addition of the lyrics

No sappy BS from the who! Straight on beautiful lyrics and rock n roll. Once in a life time vocals. Insane drumming, bass, and lead guitar with an attitude. I've heard many great writers say it doesn't matter what the lyrics mean to them. Once they write and perform it, it then belongs to the listener to decide what it means to them. Great pick for a song today! Thanks.! You better you better, you bet:-)

Since Pete Townsend wrote every Who song but one, you have to assume he's writing about himself. He's saying that a woman broke his heart. Everyone can relate to that. Nice to see the Dude Bros liking this great music. I subscribed. Good stuff.

love you listening to the Who !

Great song!🤟

This is the perfect song.

All the members of The Who grew up in London, just after world War 2. It was a pretty dismal time to be a kid. The streets were rough, the country was trying to rebuild after the bombings. Teens are angry by nature, and the circumstances of their youth made it even rougher. This explains the lyrics a bit.

Great job guys

I think you guys would really enjoy 'Join Together' by The Who. There is a promo video for the song right here on RU-vid. The video featured fan club members only as the audience.

George you are funny you make me smile and Patiko you have a sweet singing voice, you two are amazing love your channel!! ❤️🤘🎸🥁🎶

Love the who and this song

The Who has so many bangers in their repertoire

FYI: Both Peter and Roger both had blue eyes separate from the rest of the band members

This is such a great song!

🎸💯🤯 "Roundabout"‼🔥🤟

According to Pete Townsend, the song was originally written for a musical/rock opera that never happened ( ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_v4F_XHdz6o.html. ) It depicted a spy, a double agent, never able to voice his own thoughts and feelings. This also adds meaning to "if I swallow something evil" (reference to cyanide capsules) and "keep me warm, let me wear your coat" a reference to both the concept of owning up to being a spy (sometimes called coming in from the cold) and possibly not being honest even then, as "let me wear your coat" is like wearing the enemy's uniform so you blend in - the origin of the concept of a "turncoat."

You changed your opening music! I like it 🎶

The best from The Who!!!!:😍😍😍

YES SONGS-Must Hear/Should React to first: Owner of A Lonely Heart I’ve Seen All Good Things Starship Trooper Changes Leave It City of Love

Limp Biscuit covered Behind Blue Eyes and hit #1 with it in the USA.

The song was originally conceived to be from the perspective of a villain (in a concept album that wasn't created in the end). That's why some parts are - objectively speaking - emotionally immature. But nevertheless, it's very genuine and emotional impact is real. P.S. I don't think they meant "love" as specifically romantic love, just human emotions and relationships in general.

This is only one of the gems from this fantastic album. 2 seconds left in the song... ‘Hold on!’... LOL... all good guys! You are reacting to greatness!

One of their deepest darkest songs. Love it!! PS... Patrick repeating the last two words of every other line is a bit annoying but it's your channel. Just putting it out there.

Just seen your reaction. OK listen to who are you assoon as possible 🤪

And BTW, keep rocking on!!!

The rage is always there, somewhere, with The Who.

Class lads,the who are special my father seen them Glasgow early seventies I think at Celtic football club,he got my into them
