Understanding Behind Blue Eyes

- Опубликовано: 27 авг 2024
- Is this really the first 12tone video about The Who? Geez, I really should've got on that sooner. Anyway, The Who were one of the most influential bands in the 70s rock scene, bringing a level of virtuosity to their playing that few of their peers could match. They've had lots of hits, and I really could've talked about any of them, but Behind Blue Eyes has always held a special place in my heart. It paints a sympathetic picture of a deeply unsympathetic person, using complex, subtle musical techniques to bring our outcast's story to life. Every element of it is perfectly engineered to draw you into its world, and with that level of craft it's no wonder it still holds up almost 50 years later.

Some additional thoughts/corrections:
1) I should note that I'm somewhat simplifying Tagg's actual loop function model here. For instance, it's not true that the tonic _never_ sets up the incoming chord, it's just the least likely to. It does happen, though: Most often in progressions where _every_ chord is set up, like the Andalusian Cadence (Imi-bVII-bVI-V) or the Wild Thing progression (I-IV-V-IV) but also in some where that's not the case, like the Four-Chord Progression. (I-V-VImi-IV, where the medial doesn't set up the incoming.) My point isn't that it's against the rules, just that it's not expected behavior for tonic function chords in loops, contributing to the overall ambiguity of the section.
2) In case you're wondering, the reason I put the last chord of the verse as A(add9) instead of Asus2 is because, although the guitar isn't playing any C#s, I'm pretty sure the harmony vocals include one, so while the guitar chord is Asus2, that doesn't reflect the overall harmony the entire orchestra is playing.
3) Similarly, if you were watching my breakdown of the bridge and thinking "Isn't that just Mixolydian?" then yeah, it is, but I wasn't really focused on the specific scale. I felt like zooming in on the role of Bmi was a better way of understanding the effect the section had than just labeling it Mixolydian and moving on, but to be clear, yes, that is the scale the bridge is (mostly) in.
Quarantine Anthem
Problem with a Mario cadence is that on the arrival, you always find that your princess is in another cadence
nice
Oh my God I'm dying laughing, thank you for that
this guy uh? great
I see what you did there.
"He seems to have been almost allergic to just playing a straightforward groove" is an amazing description of Keith Moon's drumming.
I remember when I first noticed the same thing. Listening to Won't Get Fooled Again, which despite being nearly 10 minutes long almost never repeats the exact same drum line twice in a row. Heck, it barely repeats any of them anywhere in the song. Every single loop he does has some different unique flourish to it.
(And honestly, that's what made it one of the most fun songs to play drums on in Rock Band)
Right? It's like between his refusal to straight grooves, Entwistle's love of flourishing all around his roots but still hitting them along the way, and Townsend accenting with his crazed solos, it's amazing the Who have *any* cohesion, and yet, it WORKS. Love that about 70's era Who.
That's a big part of what makes The Who so good. Many of their songs stretch over 6 or 7 minutes but constantly keeps things interesting and tells a story. Baba O' Reily Never Looks Back, Behind Blue Eyes perseveres and Won't Get Fooled Again flows much like a riot.

From your parent's cds makes me feel old... I got this from my parent's records... Lol, good breakdown either way!
You want old? I have an original vinyl pressing of the album that I bought new in 1971 or 1972. I think it was $5.98 or something like that. I've been listening to (and playing) Behind Blue Eyes for 50 years, and it's still just as fresh (and intense) as the day it was released.
Townshend's genius was that he had a gift for putting his feelings into music. I doubt that he knew much theory. But he was a master at moving between Stable and Unstable forms. BBE is still fresh after 50 years. I'd wager it will be just as fresh in another 200. It's not hard to imagine a teenager in the year 2222 thinking 'he wrote that just for me'.
When you say the protagonist is opening himself up to outside help, he is only seeking someone to enable his survival as an emotionless being. That's not the help he needs, but it's all he's willing to accept.
Ooh. He is, isn't he? Damn you Pete Townshend, now I'm crying again!
The protagonist effectively being Pete Townsend... I often wondered how Roger Daltrey felt singing Pete's quite personal lyrics.
I dont understand the meaning of this song.
I know that almost any time that Pete takes the lead vocal it’s because Roger found it to personal to act as Pete’s interpreter. So it’s definitely something he thought about.
emotionless?
...
"No one knows what it's like to be the batman"
Appropriate, since The Who did a pretty cool cover of the Batman theme.
The lyric is actually " bad man " .

@@ficacar99 Of course I get the joke . It's older than you are . You missed the erie deep meaning of Peter Townsend's music. Look up the background of this song .
my man really missed the opportunity to call this video "behind behind blue eyes"
I've loved this song for many years but I never realized just how complex it was. Especially because when I think of groups that created music that was more complex than it seems on the first listen, The Who don't immediately come to mind. You've really opened my (not blue, as it happens) eyes.
Your description of Keith Moon is absolutely perfect.
I've been listening to this song all week for the past week, it's lyrics really speak to me, and then you come here with this, amazing timing! Thank you!
One reason that the drum "fills" fit together so well is that the crash on 1 ties it together but is continuous and draws less attention. Then when he starts going to what im gonna call the "actual fills" the crashes change place and punctuate other parts.
These videos are magic. I've been listening to these songs so many times they practically became part of my personality, and yet I never knew what laid below. This makes me look at them from yet another angle, something i thought was pretty much impossible at this point lol. Thank you so much for using your knowledge and expertise in this amazing way
I usually call the “Mario cadence” the “schlager ending” for the tendency in old Eurovision/“schlager” to end songs in that fashion. (the original term for Eurovision Song Contest in Swedish is “Eurovisionsschlagerfestivalen”) You can hear it featured in the ending of “Främling” by Carola for example (one of the more known older Swedish Eurovision songs. She didn’t win with that but she did win with “Fångad av en stormvind” a couper of years later”)
There are lots of things I enjoy about this channel, but I really love all the geek-culture references. If something is rare, it's visualized as the Periodic Table entry for Technicium. If there is a 6 in the explanation (and other times as in this video) we get to see the Pennyfarthing bicycle from The Prisoner. I could go on but I'll just leave with this parting thought: THERE. ARE. FOUR. LIGHTS!
Great theory video for a great song. When my now 32 year old son was small he loved it when I played Behind Blue Eyes. Besides liking the song, he thought the lyric was "bat" man. Then you went and drew a bat man. Made my day. Awesome.

How the hell do you produce these videos? Do you come up with the script then figure out what doodles go where? How do you sync everything up so it matches with what you are saying? Considering how much is going on, it's amazing that you're able to make these videos at all.
Here's a guess, based on my limited experience with video editing. I think he writes and records the vocal script first, and then edits out all the pauses. I suspect that he doesn't think a lot about what the doodles will be, because he can pretty much turn any fragment of an English sentence into a doodle. (He turns a single sentence into 4-5 doodles. There's a doodle every 1-2 seconds.) Then he scripts and draws all the doodles. At that point it's probably relatively easy to chop up the doodle video into fragments and speed them up to sync up to the sentence fragments. He does need to be careful to move the paper as little as possible while he's drawing. He might tape the paper to the table. That would make producing the video a lot easier. I bet it's a slow, tedious process to draw all the doodles, though (and edit them). The videos are fantastic.
This song sure evokes memories. I knew the first part but had not learned the middle. We were jamming at a party where I met Cindy, who said she knew how to play the second part...so we just went into it, and by the time my fist clenched I was in love.
Problem was, my then-girlfriend Kathleen was in attendance, and she also twigged onto what was happening. She was an otherwise very quiet and shy person, but upon leaving she said in a soft voice: "I was ready to take that guitar out of Cindy's hands smash that guitar over her head."
"What makes him so great?" - brilliant pun!
The thumbnail is adorable
“Self-inflicted loneliness”
I see what you did there.
The diversion to the harmonically fast riff (A>G>D) just before the outro _very_ strongly resembles the riff from "Won't Get Fooled Again", which sort of helps set up the song. (Wikipedia does mention this, but I also noticed it when I first listened to the song. Townshend reeeeaaally likes leitmotifs.)
I love this song
One of the most underrated songs
That isolated guitar opening has a very Metallica-ish feel...
... oh and that little sketch of the Who's Next album cover was perfect.
Couldn't help it when you drew the bass: "What's up, ANGLERS?" OMG. EPICO.
Mmmm. That's good bass!
I first heard this song in the Limp Bizkit version. When I heard the start of the original for the first time I was somewhat put off but when I first heard that "bridge", as you call it, I was immediately enamoured, mostly because of Keith's drums and John's bass. Never went back to Limp Bizkit for that song!
Yeah I heard the limp bizkit version and kinda very much disliked it lol, not my favorite cover to say the least. This song is gold on it's own, and doesnt really translate well to another style
It makes me slightly ill that such a poor imitation exists, and worse yet, that some people only know that inferior version. Truly sad. Truly, truly, a travesty of musical justice.
My DiL has been sharing music with me fans frequently she'll show me something that I know but by a cover band.
What a great analysis of a terrific song! I wish Pete Townshend would watch this video...I can predict his response: "Um...yeh."
I'm pretty sure Pete didnt put that much theory into playing.
@@richvanek1363 not consciously, at least
Perfect. As a huge fan for over 35 years, in my mind that is exactly how Pete would respond. In Kids are alright, he’s presented with an analysis of one of his song, and that is his actual response, “Um....yeh.” In a very unenthusiastic tone,
@@richvanek1363 yeah he did. probably subconsciously though
Hell yeah! Really interesting analysis on a fantastic song. Thanks! Keep the Who videos coming!
Nice how you tie what's going on with the music to what's the lyric is about. I can think of other channels that try to tell us why a song is great without once mentioning the words!
The Mario Cadence is over the line “(empty) as my conscience seems to be” I never read that as hopeful - more like the false smile of a sociopath. Either way, it’s brilliant.
Yes it seems to brighten up in the bridge as the narrator finally starts asking for help - but then reality comes crashing back and you're forced to realize the "help" he asked for was _'Don't let me feel anything'_
Thanks man... I'm not sure how you do it, but I'm always captivated by the entire production... I've learned, more about my favorite songs, than I thought was even possible ... you awesome!!
A Mario cadence is also called a Picardi Third and is one of my favorite musical ideas

My sister is a massive fan of The Who, and her two favorite albums are Who's Next and Quadrophenia.
I like that you did pan the instrumentation in the beginning to the side. I was able to flip my iPhone over and hear the sound skip briefly to the other side lol.
I'm starting to think Google is listening to me through my phone even when it's locked. I've been whistling this to myself all morning. I turn on the computer, go to RUclips, and look what's in my recommendations.
Great job! I love it when you pick songs which are important to you. It's reflected strongly in your analysis and makes great videos.
Pete Townshend loves his sus chords. Bargain is a great example too (I think it’s actually a m7 sus4?)
That’s probably why I love his music so much.
Ending on the Asus2 chord is just pure genius. It's like he's still questioning his existence as the bad man.
Keith Moon added so much to the Who's sound. It seems like even when he played a straight rhythm, he'd get bored and do a fill.
A good example of that is The Real Me. When Roger starts singing he speeds up the tempo. Pete's guitar chords don't spread up, but the drums def. do. It gives it a sense of urgency.
Man, these videos are great! So interesting to analyze the songs that I grew up loving.

Listening to this video was exhausting! I’ll have to wait a few minutes before I watch another one of his videos...
Wow. Like, totally intense. In such a good way.
You are.....WONDERFUL!!!
Thank you.
Also another note: the intro Esus4 voicing on B plays over the final Bmaj chord, so it may be a little harder to analyze. Asus2 also functions as another voicing of Esus4, so while it still feels unresolved, it may not be as much as you think.
The bridge section harmony can also be explained as the IV V I chords you get from an E mixolydian scale.
Wow, I'll just listen to the music, thank you.
Keith Moon is one of my favorite drummers.
But I never could figure out why he was so unique.
Until it dawned on me one day.
If you look at his drum set it's flat and the symbols are arranged higher than the drum set itself.
Plus he plays with a lot of drum fills and uses a lot of wild arm movements.
And I couldn't figure out why it set was so different to everybody else's.
Until in an interview about Keith Moon. I can't remember who was talking about him.
Either someone from The who or a family member.
Instead you played with a marching band.
he's not classically trained in jazz or classical drumming.
It's straight up marching band drumming playing.
Just look at footage of drummers from marching bands.
And you will see the similarities
Between Keith Moon and there playing.
Because when a drummer from a March band plays his drum set attached to his shoulders and lots of drum fills and look how they twirl their sticks....
that explains why he was constantly kicking the shit out of his drum kit.
Damn...brilliant breakdown! Favorite song and things I never knew.
7:00 - "Mario Cadence" - See "Bee Gees" :)
I love your analysis! Sorry if this is unsolicited but there's one thing I think could really help demonstrate your points- after the analysis for each section if you played the sample again i think it would be really helpful- I always find myself rewinding to listen again for the concepts you're talking about and I wonder if others do the same.
"No one knows what's it's like to be the bad man, to be the sad man, behind blue eyes...white dragon..." ("And I blame Yug...")
Great video 🎉
Who's Next, in my opinion, second best album of all time
I-SEE-FOUR-LIGHTS!!! --Capt Jean-Luc Picard
Pete Townshend is one of the most harmonically creative songwriters when he wants to be (which isn't always). The bridge feels like it's constantly shifting, especially when it goes to the D major chord, but overall, the section still works really well. Unfortunately, after Tommy and Who's Next, I feel like he really stopped it with this super creative stuff and ended up relying on some of the same three or four chord progressions for all of his songs.
I love The Who, but it could be argued that Pete based a big part of his career on the flat 7, 4, 1 progression.
I found you through the suggested videos. First, your videos are very fruitful. I just made a RUclips channel about melody writing so l ‘m definitely doing my research. Thanks for all your help. Please keep it up! Just subbed!
Id love you to talk about Baba Oreily, it's got so much going on that you can listen to it several times and take something new from it.
Great song!, For good or bad, this song was my first karaoke video that I posted, (the oldest)...However, for my "video" I tied this songs musical arc to a pictorial story arc of a particular green building, which I thought had an interesting musical history and backstory.
Can I add something else to the arguement? I had just realized that the band have not used very complicated chords with out-of-the-blue extensions, which I think also helps the audience connect much more intimately to the "bad" protagonist of the song.
You rock!!
D is always the home I'm trying to find
I'm currently flipping back and forth between this video and the track. I'm trying to correlate; so far, I've determined that that Mario Cadence
(7:00), coincides with the lyrics "conscience seems to be" :)
Holy fuck, I just searched Behind Blue Eyes on Google, and the default result was the Limp Bizkit cover. Shut it down. Shut everything down. The internet is a failed experiment.

@@PrisonKilljoy thanku im happy u enjoyed my joke
The song is essentially hymnal. Although Gmaj and Dmaj are diatonic to E natural minor, the harmonic rhythm implies a IV-I in D which is now going to behave like bVII and head to bVI (C) then to ambiguous Asus2 back to Emin (Amen!). The second section is indeed Gmaj and the little Mario trick with Emaj sets us up for another churchy plagal resolution to Bmin (Amen, again).
One of these days I'm going to join your patreon and request some cool songs.

1:23 petition to start saying "sus chords sound sus"
I'd like to push back on your analysis of the intro. I agree that the first two bars are definitely Esus, but I feel the third and fourth as dominant. As soon as the B pedal comes in, I hear the chord as B7sus4, a common dominant chord in folk and rock-the tonic serving to avoid a strong resolution. The insistent returni to the B in the bass of the guitar promises a return to the low E soon, which we get.
It's not difficult to play. You finger Esus4 for the entire intro, and just pick different strings to get the melody. Switching to the Em for the nurse only requires you to move 1 finger, and then switching to G is a well practiced change for most guitarists.
Adam Neely and David Bennet have both made videos talking about certain books they felt influenced them. Have you thought about about making a ‘books i like’ video?
I often sing behind blue eyes to my daughter. Once she's old enough to understand it she'll also understand how messed up I am...
Love your analysis and illustrations as always, but the guitar string/ “fret noise” at 10:27 really threw me off lmao. did you program that as midi?
I’ll be honest I never knew the song was originally by The Who, I’d only ever known of the Limp Bizkit version
Have you done sound of silence. Either the og or disturbed?
Ah yes, so this is what I meant when I told my friends it was a good song
Yes
How does the Limp Bizkit cover differ?
LOVE the Star Trek reference
Are you sure those notes are named right in A=440 relative to what we hear ? Or that the guitar you used wasn't out of tune ? Cause I was playing along on my guitar with the video and it sounds really out of tune, and my guitar is definitely perfectly tuned. Any perfect pitch boys ?
4:38 did you just "so" to the A in the A chord?
There are 4 lights!
I overwhelmingly associate this song with Romeo from Minecraft Story Mode. After Season 2, with Xara's help, he stops being depressed, but it takes 4 weeks, and he tries to kill himself twice, and he's unable to realize that he's not trapped in the loneliness that he's both used to and afraid of any more until his depression is completely gone.
OMG PAST ME WTF 😩
Sega DMCA takedown at 3:15 😂
what you've labeled as the chorus, is not exactly acting as a chorus. the hook line come at the end of the verse, making your "chorus" act more like a bridge or a "B part"
What does the ant mean?
Nice video! But isn’t the harmonic analysis a bit overconstructed? Couldn’t you just say that the tonic is D major?
And that the song is made to resemble traditional folk music; which means that it isn’t really based on modern function harmony. So, for example, you’d be surprised find resolution appearing randomly in the middle of phrases.
Me and my two sisters used to call it the Pi$$ album.
7:32 - Hmm. This sounds like it's being 'strummed' as three times the rate of the track (?)
Fascinating when you play it with the minor as opposed to the suspended fourth. I never quite understood the whole jargony terminalogy of calling it sus 4th? Since it is playing almost the same role why not call it an augmented third? I know just enough about music to know what I like but not enough to know why so these are fun to watch!
