The Who - Eminence Front
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 авг 2024
- The Who a connu plusieurs changements de composition durant son existence.
La formation la plus connue du groupe, active de 1964 à 1978, réunit le chanteur Roger Daltrey, le guitariste Pete Townshend, le bassiste John Entwistle et le batteur Keith Moon.
En 1978, ce dernier meurt accidentellement et Kenney Jones, ex-Small Faces, le remplace jusqu'en 1988.
À partir de cette date, les Who n'ont plus de batteur attitré, et poursuivent en trio jusqu'à la mort d'Entwistle en 2002.
Lui non plus n'est pas remplacé, et le groupe est actuellement réduit au tandem Daltrey-Townshend.

“Dad, I found your old PlayStation. What game is this?”
....it’s...(tears up)...the greatest game and adventure you’ll ever go on.
No kidding
[wipes away tears] All you had to do was follow the damn train, son.
Not quite.
I love this comment. Theres a few Rockstar games I would consider masterpieces and one day I may utter those words. Im already 31 so I better hurry and make a baby 😄
All we had to do was follow the damn train, CJ!
You know those songs that you no longer like because you've heard them a million times? This isn't one of them.
ok now I'm mentioning him
C
Not even for a second.
If only you could go back to the first time you listened to it
Got that right!
This song + doing missions on LV desert = best childhood feeling in memory. Shame those days won't come back
Listen I got the gta trilogy edition san Andreas is endless amounts of fun Nd now additionally all the radio stations are on YT instantly; KDST RadioX you name it; if the police can't stop you must be on the dust !!! Hahrhdhd /maniacal laughter
nostalgia is one of the best and worst feelings
I hear you buddy, so many good times in san andreas.
I'm ready to head to Las Venturas around the railroad track. Hut up the casinos and go to flight school. Lol
You didn't forget

Fuck you toreno! I dont ever want to do this again
This is one of the rare songs that literally kicks ass to the eardrums.
Agreed 💯💯💯.... Such a fking BADASS song!!!!! 🤟🤟
If you Turn it Up 500amp Your finished! Mmm So Good !!!
that's not what literally means, eardrums do not have asses
@@Valhallen002 'kicks ass' is a verb that fits perfectly. 🤣
If the police can’t stop you-
_Haa ha ha haaa!_
-you must be on....
The *Dust.*
Very nice 👆
Fuck yeah dude KDS-T The Dust
I forgot what I was going to bahahahaha what ever
People really do forget no really I always say yes never no I'm serious Haha Haha I ain't nothing but a b o t I mean b t o and who fan all the bands really
That aged excellently.
My Father brought me up with this kind of music. In school I was seen as uncool because of it. Looking back now I know I was the coolest kid there and the rest were the uncool ones.
Cute bird!
Yeah man im 24 and i realized that walking around the hallways of my highschool. You can tell theres a feeling this music gives you the heart and soul someone put just to make this and not giving a fuck who cared about the way it sounded.
Yep!!!
Bingo
NoName ❤️
How many songs start off this funky and deep only to go into a lead guitar solo before even starting into the singing, which in turn, is awesome?
Lou reed ,rock and roll, guitarist let's loose from the get go!!!! Live concert.
@@MK-su6eg this is on the closing credits of Last Exit to Nowhere Gerard Butler Jamiee Fox
Best song opening ever
Most of the who's songs and the door's songs
Coolest song intro ever!!
This is their best song, in my humble opinion.
Love reign per me pretty good to.
This song has swagger for sure! I think its a tie between this song and Squeeze Box IMO.
Definitely
Mine too... ironic, because Pete Townshend considered it a failure
@@hansgoober35 its totally different and awesome. I think GM owns the song now.
People keep mentioning the drumming. This is a masterpiece from one of the greatest bass guitarists ever, John Entwistle. Seriously, listen just to the bass line ... why is no one else mentioning him?
That bassline is funky af
Entwistle DROVE that band. He was a master without peer.
ruth talley Exactly!!
Defend the drumming - sounds like friggin' gun shots - fits the song perfectly - Kenny was tight AF, he was in a no win position and did a great job

Cruising the deserts with my tuned-up Remington. Bouncing with the hydraulics up.
nice I got a jeep wrangler with a 50 cal buttefly trigger swivel mount on the back
It was all about tricked out stallions with me, cruising the beach side freeway in los santos
This track reminds me of cruising in the Hydra with a six-star wanted level over the restricted area of the desert, dodging missles from the base and from other Hydra and returning fire. I can hear all the sound effects in my head. Those were the days of a carefree childhood.
if you remember the place on the photo, you are a legend
@Age Restrictions What was so bad about him? I don't remember him very well (I played the game about 3-4 years ago) but from what I remember, he wasn't that bad of a guy
GTA San Andreas
The place of the big stunt jump of the dessert,legendary place bro
Verdant Meadows?
Ardhito N. Verdant Meadows would be the dessert airfield
Something really special about the sound of that snare. So powerful.
That slap back echo
It feels so classic. Idk why. This song just feels like a disco song or something
YESSS 💪🏾❤️❤️❤️
Reverse gated reverb... It became even bigger later on into the 80's... This was an early use. But other than that the drum recording is very straightforward... Kenny Jones is a Rock solid drummer and he knows how to tune his kit.
@@garthkolbeck8674 ohhhh it's a REVERSE sound! thanks, I was wondering how they get that gradual decay and then gradual attack (like a gap with the air being sucked out and then returning) before the full body of the signal returns - of course it's just reversed halfway through! I was thinking maybe it was an array of parallel reverbs tuned with with different predelays, or maybe some weird sidechain compression trick. it sounds so, so fucking good for this kind of aesthetic. i normally hate the '80s gated verbs on drums with a passion but when the song has enough space (like it does here) so that it doesn't become cluttered and mushy, and it's done tastefully, it can sound so good.
This song reminds me of when I quit my job and did roadtrip through the US. I was driving somewhere east of Cali through the desert when this song came in the radio. I felt like a hundred percent in the flow with the road and life. Since then everytime I hear this song I feel that unbelievable freedom again.
I drove from Cali to Oklahoma city when i was 21 by myself. Im 40 now. Its a great song. Cheers!
Yeah, I've done 3 east to west coast road trips. Sometimes, when a certain song comes on, and you're in that freedom of the moment, it's really profound.
Fair play sometime you just gotta go for it...
This song caused me to exceed 100mph
For me it was driving west across the Great Salt Lake Desert with two friends in Summer '87, song miraculously came on the radio... not one of us spoke throughout... beautiful moment.
I actually can’t even describe how I feel about THIS song. THAT’s how good it is to me!
I love how the picture manifests a cultural bridge between generations.
"I discovered this of a radio-to-8track bootleg when I was 14!"
"LeL, I discovered this looking for Big Foot in San Andreas"
I could play this song 100 times in a row & still want to hear it again ♡ I never get sick of this song
Agree...never bores😀
this music makes me wanna follow the damn train
all you have to do
for all you youngsters out there, get a copy of "The WHO-Live At Leeds" and hear what they were playing in 1970!
Now, you're cool!
Roger....that Leeds album was explosive!! Moon
Still got the album
Amazing especialy their version of summertime blues
If the cops show up, the volume is set right.
Love it
Best album I own. On my 3rd copy.
Thank you Brian Cranston for being the infiltrator... And blasting this song into my ears... Thank you Brian Cranston for being Heisenberg too...
Thank you for reminding me to watch The Infiltrator, haven't finished it yet.
@@metalmugen great movie isn't it
Yes! I did know this one before seeing the movie but it truly fit in it as well.
I cannot even describe how much I love this song.
Right back at ya Matt! Cranking it loud tonight..
By a landslide, my favorite song by The Who. A masterpiece of musicianship and recording excellence.
I spent years as a sonar operator, seeking submarines in the depths through sound; sorting and sifting the sounds apart until I found what lurked below. This entire song is overwhelming - all the shards and bits fit together in a remarkable symphony.
Has that 70’s recording style. Cool 😎
This should be on guardians ehhhh
@@gordonaverageguy9556 Exactly. This is the 80's when they didn't have the computers, etc., of today. A genius. If he was Beethoven in a past life, it wouldn't surprise me.
Sort of caps it off.
that bass is criminal
Thank you San Andreas for introducing me to the 80s. You completely changed my perspective on music❤️
My Dad...taught me some sincere appreciation of a great tune. My kids lost their Big Daddy way too soon. Love u Dad, Happy B’day a few days early.
Tiffany Ellis I lost my dad too way to early but this song makes me remember him. Cheers mate!
A year later, i tip my cap and pour out a little liquor for your dad. Much love.
Happy birthday to your Dads gents.
I’m only 20 years old, I didn’t grow listening to this I only heard it in a GM car commercial. But I understand what the song is saying clearly. “People forget to have fun and enjoy life”
It's about people doing lots of cocaine and putting on a front to make themselves appear more important than they really are. It's about the dangers of ego and cocaine
aw man i thought this was gonna be some crazy 8-minute version I'd never heard
One of the most awesome songs ever written and the meaning behind the lyrics of applys even more in the year 2020
So true
Brilliant musicianship.
One of the best guitarist to ever pick up a guitar
@Gina Mori thanks Gina you're better than grammarly love Chris
Was on 2nd shift in a print shop when I 1st heard this. Almost 40 years ago and I can still "see" everyone there.
Before knowing this was The Who I tough it was a funk band and they where singing "living in the funk" instead of eminence front.
Marco Zuleta hah this happens to me sometimes. I can hear that now. it’s really cool when your mind adapts to it being one thing and when you stand corrected at some future point it doesn’t ruin it but makes it good in a new way.
Dude Bro I Feel Like You.
My Dad Corrected Me Thusly.
I thought it was Peter Gabriel!
I thought they were saying "everythings F@cKed"
The best I've seen of the misheard lyrics::
It's in Eminem's Butt
It's in Eminem's Butt
It's a Footlong
If there is a Who song that is under rated this is it.
EXACTLY
Not sure this is underrated. It’s one of their greatest hits
Indeed. My favourite.
"I need you" off of "A quick one" that's so underrated I bet this is the first time you've heard of it
Got that right, thought it was just me !!!!
the best drop ever in music history....when I say drop I mean the drop when all the music comes together and the beat drops 0:39
No .. the break at 3:20!
0:39 it is
This is the original version with Roger Daltrey being way ahead of Pete Townshend when Pete says Behind an Eminence Front
One of the bests. You can’t forget ‘Money for Nothing’ by Dire Straits.
It was not often you heard The Who track with Townshend on a vocals, but when he stepped up - you knew he was gonna blow you away.
The best band to come out of west London, no questions asked no quarter given.
I remember seeing them in concert early on after this song came out. The hall was totally dark and for about 5 minutes the stacatto punches from the organ was all you heard. Then a light started pulsing out of the stage in perfect synchronicity with the organ. The whole thing went on about 10 minutes and I was absolutely hypnotized. It was really a climactic part when the singing started. Great night.
I showed this song to my Ford F150 now it's a GMC Sierra.
Awesome comment!!!!!!!
"Christmas isn't about making money, it's about making a shit ton of money homie are you trying to get a lamb chop or Lamborghini come on my boy let's talk the dirty." -Santa Claus
Pete sold this to GM, and they ran it for three years. Pete probably earned a good chunk of money for doing so. Good for him! And after all that, I'm still here, deep in the groove...
If you went to the GMC display at any car show during that ad campaign, they were literally blasting this on a constant loop all day. You could hear it everywhere.
Funny. A song about people doing cocaine to hide their dissatisfaction and boredom of life. Quite the way to sell an over priced Chevy truck (aka GMC).
I'm 21, it's 2019, and nothing compares to this song. Wish I could hear it on the radio!
I’m 23, it’s 2019. But they play the shit on the classic rock station sometimes.
Dear Mr. Austin. Went to the "record" store in '83 and bought the 45. Loved it then and now!!
@@jeanetteduda6611 lucky
i’m 18 turning 19 next month, i grew up listening to rock from the 60s-2000s cause of the radio. all my mom listened to
They still play it on the radio. You'll be lucky to catch it though.
In the old days I just loved this song..Now I listen to it and know what Pete was trying to tell us..Good stuff!
People talking about the drums, others talking about the bassline. Both are amazing but what makes this song great is that its 100% complete every part plays off each other it's perfect in every way
Have you heard the isolated bass? It's awesome! RUclips baby!
One of the best songs ever.
The material here is classic. The band is classic. Timeless♥️
Still sounds great here on the verge of Dec.1st 2019
@T P Hehe
Sounds great on 8 January 2020
Great sound in GTA San Andreas!
I cant believe anyone could dislike this.
Pete Townsend showing the world what he can do with his voice and a drummer that does what he wants. Pure passion for the craft.
I'm 51 and grew up in the 80s for those who weren't there u missed the greatest decade of all !!!!!
Yes , They Missed Out On A Lot Of Cool Music The 80's Was The Shit !!!
I'm almost 65, Woodstock generation, we had the very best music of all. Can't argue with that fact.
San Diego sports arena! 1978. 9? What a concert!!! Still got my ticket stub!!! Yeeaaahhh, daltrey, guitar, drums, bass, rockin full tilt, well bass man, he be chilling, but hands fingers going up and down!!!! Thanks!,,
The bass makes this song and having a sound system that vibrated paint off the walls when cranked up made this song worth every penny spent on the album worth it. This song ROCKS! Pete Townsend is the shit, but damn how "The Who" made my youth priceless is EVERYTHING!
Just saw The Who two nights ago. They still rock like maniacs.
i seriously doubt that. whatrthey rockin? ensure
Love that
Saw them in Tampa Stadium in the 90's when they sang only love will bring the rain It started raining They were Awesome
Driving to the airport today in penticton bc , and this song came on ...love it
I am 54 and still loving this song and group. Sounds so much better than the music of my daughters generation
Played this tune in an excellent cover band......
I could hardly believe how well it went over and how much I freakin' LOVED performing it!!!
Evidently Mark Cuban really likes this song, it gets played every time they introduce the players (Dallas Mavericks) before the game. I'm kind of partial to it too!
I discovered this song when I was eight I believe...epic
Missing you terribly!! I'll never hear this song and not think of you, my angel. You were taken too soon Wayne- but NEVER forgotten!! Love you Always 💗
Sorry for you loss.
@@moserr11 - thank you 💗

Cool beans!
I'm here to say THANK YOU for the time you took to write the words! It is so profound , I know,,it's saying " LOOK AT THESE AWESOME LYRICS TO THIS SONG. DON'T FORGET WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT. HOW FRIGGIN KOOL. YEP. THANKS BUDDY. I HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN, NOR WILL I. ✌ Kay
It's 'spring time'...
Not spray flies, just saying.
I forgot this song had (or needed) lyrics. Hands down their best song!!
K-DST, the best station to listen when driving through the desert!
Somebody said that rock is dead. It will never be dead as long as these kind of grooves continue to vibrate. Hard as a rock.
John Allen LONG LIVE ROCK!
Good to listen to The Who cranked to the max but you only hear the nuances when you listen via decent headphones.
The Who are on another level!
This sound is serious man in the desert material. I don't reckon anyone could be stopped while listening to this
Bad ass
what are you talking about
Carol weidig thriving in a barren environment. Adaptable and able to overcome with whatever sustenance you can scrape out of this wretched existence. Those people are hard to stop, and that dude feels this song expresses that quality.
@@Str8kazm how and why did you scrape my name out of this barren environment...love the music, i do declare
oh i see now.....thanks for the explanation...like it...
We all learned to crawl before we walked. The WHO entered Woodstock era and opened the ears of everyone. This is their exclamation mark to bid fare well to their fans. Roger Daltrey took a backup and played the organ on this to the great, underrated Pete Townsend. Thank you 'The Who' for 60 years of music. Remember 'quadrophenia' and 'tommy'. The Lewis and Clark of rock and roll.
A friend was killed few years back. He was little a little brother. This was his song. I think of him all the time. This songs helps
This is a great road trip song. Just listen to it and enjoy the scenery. It makes this song that much better. It is a masterpiece of music!🎶🎸
Flying across BONE COUNTY in a plane ✈
KRMA VDMarne That sounds relaxing.....
KRMA VDMarne are you???
KRMA VDMarne Bend over for a bone of your own.
Que recuerdos :')
Are spraying today?
That view 💯😭 take me back!!
I like to play this when I’m getting ready for work and leaving the house heading down the road fresh and clean and ready for the day.😎
Fresh and clean yeah.
It's a deodorant front.
It's a put on ... your clothes.
It is a kickass song, dude. Can get you ready for almost anything, well.
Tony Tafoya lol
Joseph LaBella 🤗👍🏻
Me to lol this a head banger
My mom was a dancer at la chambre in michigan in the early 80's and danced to this song !!!
Very HardCore. If you listen n here that bass slammn away. Badass drumbeat..great use of organ..superb. TheWho are EPIC
That's not an organ, it's an ARP Synthesizer.
Still listening in '2019'
Search the Vevo live version!
why do people keep asking this stupid question for old music?
you know it
One of my favorite songs ever! I feel like it doesn’t get enough praise but I’m okay with that,
It's annoying that so many people only know about classic rock through videos games and TV shows. I grew up on this stuff, and I'm a millennial. But maybe I was just lucky in that sense.
I don't see the problem though.
At the end we all enjoy the song so what's the problem with which way you discovered this song or not ?
The beginning of this song makes a great ringtone 🤭
I never knew that this was The Who. Always been a fan of them, and always liked this song, but never thought that this band made it.
Franck, tu es décidément le roi des DJs ! Des morceaux inconnus, des découvertes, tout ce qu'il faut pour ravir un honnête rocker. Continue, ça fait du bien. JF
I’ve been playing this for 2 days days straight now…
Such a solid Who tune, like most were. They entertained, but they entertained themselves by each letting go to different faccits of what their fans might dig- and in this song- Pete let loose licks along with Entwistle and created a masterpiece. Roger held his own with backup duties, and it worked, oh so well. The piano, bass and Pete killing it was and still is astounding. 🤙⚡🤘👌👍🖕✔️, KC
Great description
Maybe my favorite Who tune.
Growing up in the 1990s was probably the best time to be a kid, there was a lot you could do. I remember going to the mall and hanging out at the arcade. Great music like this would play and the rest is history 👌
This song is on a plane none have ever visited before. Thunder Fingers Entwhistle on that bass though is untouchable.
This song was out when i was 11 years old in 82 , this is early 80s rock pop funk so cool
June Richardson why do you double space , this isn't an essay.
2 fun knee
I was 21 then playing in the band...Any band.
I was 13, wow!
@@shawns.2851 No im not a anal , i love women only .
I remember once when the sun was setting and it was 85 degrees in Las Vegas and I was heading to the strip with my windows down , this song came on and it gives me that feeling again every time I hear this song . High on life and alive and conscious .
I do not know if I am the only one who brings back memories of the desert or of San Fierro this song, brings me nostalgia, I love this music. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😢😢😢
Zooming along at dawn in a Hydra from Los Santos to Las Venturas- all while blaring this on max volume..happier times Xx
My favorite who tune.
I saw them 1963 Swindon UK while stationed there.
Sorry 1964
Also saw the Yardbirds while there.
I told everybody that 800,000 American citizens vanished without explanation. In a matter of 12 hours, they forgot. 🍻
I was a big fan of The Who when I was young. When this came out I wasn’t really feeling it. Now I think it’s my favorite Who song ever
Excellence. 🎼 {my GOD, the BASS in this recording!!!!!!!!!}
This Song has a very memorable memory to me, Last Song I heard before I boarded that bus to MCRD. And started my new Life in the Marine Corp. At 18 yrs old.
tim wilde one of the first songs i fell in love with as a lil kid :) cheers
Way to go Devil Dog
I can only imagine the awesome music my father enjoyed when he enlisted in the USMC in 1965. That was great music back during that Vietnam era. If only I had been born 5 years earlier.
Hey Fellow Marine, "Come and join our party, Dressed to Kill" Come on, Chesty would totally Rock that Song to PFT' s.... It's a Put On... Semp. Fi
From a navy corpsman, thanks for everything that you did Marine! And yes, GTA San Andreas is the greatest GTA!
I discovered this song as an addict a few years ago. It's even more beautiful without the drugs too lol
Congrats on being sober my guy 💪
One of the greatest pieces of music ever recorded. Hits just as great every single time
This is sung by Pete. Always surprising to see him singing instead of Roger when you watch them live. 🤘
I don’t like the fact 3.4M people listen to the same music as me… >:(
Add another 400K and more to come. Something about great minds....
Keith moon and his drum work
kenny jones
Keith passed before the making of this track. It's Kenny Jones whose filling in the meantime.
Keith Moon would have made the track way less linear, but I reckon Kenny nailed the beat of the song
what a trip... every instrument shine in its own way... brilliant
I love this song and didn't realize that the who sang it so I've been listening to it everyday 💕💕💕
Early high school memories, I remember having to wait a year for it to come out for the Original Xbox. It was fucking worth it.
THIS BASS LINE IS SICK👍🎸💪
Absolutely
Entwistle was a master!!!
One of the 10 best intros to a rock song.
The days are here now. Don't shame. What part of life would you ever want to live? The past you can't change or the future you can? This is the never ending of our future to change it. Think about it.
