As the saying goes, a lead singer, a lead guitarist, a lead bassist, and a lead drummer. A special controlled chaos.
Even though this is a 1978 recording of a live performance, the song is originally from the 1971 album Who’s Next. Absolutely timeless.
IIRC, Jeff Stein (writer/director) had them perform this specifically for the movie The Kids Are Alright. Moon's final concert as it turned out.
“Meet the new boss. Same as the old boss”. Is an extraordinary last line which brilliantly- and simply- encapsulates the entire song.
That line and Daltrey's scream!
"Meet the new boss same as the old boss"...and
"The parting on the right is not a parting on the left"...
Are two of the greatest anti-establishment lines of all time in rock and roll history.
its referring to the political arena meaning both sides Democrat and Republican work for the rich because money runs the world not politicians and neither Democrats or Republicans makes a bit difference but the rich want us to think that they do.
Because after you vote....
"There's nothing in the street looks any different to me and the slogans are effaced by the bye"
Yes one of the best lines in any song ever and so true.
My favorite rock lyric of all. In one of my favorite songs. Because it's Ultimate Truth.
Townshend, you can´t measure how important he was to Rockmusic ... unfiltered guitar, great-grandfather of Punkrock. Entwistle, probably the greatest Rock-Bassist ever. Moon, drummer ... maybe only bowing to Bonham. And Daltrey, what a frontman.
Don't forget Ginger Baker when talking about great drummers of this era.✌️ And Mitch Mitchell of the Jimi Hendrix Experience.
Townshend and Entwistle invented Marshall stacks. Live music changed forever.
In my opinion, the greatest line in rock music history - "Oh I know that the hypnotized never lie... Do ya?" This is almost an entire summary of human nature in one sentence. Stunning!
Nobody seems to notice that....my 2nd favorite part of the song, nothing beats the finale, but Pete's sarcastic snarl of "Do ya" just drives the songs message so hard.
The Who filmed this live performance at Shepperton Studios near London for a movie they would later release called "The Kids Are Alright". In the studio next to where The Who were performing, the movie "Alien" was being filmed. The cast and crew of "Alien" took a break and went over to watch The Who gig. They like the laser show at the end of Won't Get Fooled Again so much, they borrowed the laser equipment and used it in the "Alien" movie. So the next time you watch "Alien", keep an eye out for The Who's lasers. On a different note, a young woman named Chrissie Hynde was in the audience that day. Several years later, Chrissie became famous as the lead singer of the band the Pretenders.
Heh The Who had 3 front men, Townsend, Daltry and yea even Moon the drummer. But standing there stoicly just doing his job is one one the best bass men in the business. Entwistle is the reason the other guys can be all over the place. He was the rock. Here is the isolated video of him on this show, incredible ruclips.net/video/80dsyo2Ox-0/видео.html
Yes, totally agree. Everybody should listen to this. Bass player rarely gets recognition, most important member of the band, bass and drums is the back bone, me thinks !
John "the ox" Entwhistle has always been content to remain in the background just producing some amazing bass lines, but when you see just how busy he is you can see how he has earned the nickname thunderfingers.
Absolutely the best bassist in rock history .
The Who are a great British rock band formed in London in 1964. They are considered one of the most influential rock bands of the 20th century & have sold over 100 million records worldwide. They have so many great songs such as "I Can't Explain", "The Kids Are Alright", "My Generation", "Baba O'Riley", "Who Are You", "Substitute", "Happy Jack", "I Can See For Miles", "Behind Blue Eyes", "Boris The Spider", "Pictures Of Lily", "Magic Bus", "Pinball Wizard" etc.
Must be the best SCREAM in rock history
YYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!
My vote (pun intended :) goes to Ian Gillan in "Child, in Time", though...
The famous US music magazine Rolling Stone has Keith Moon at number two in its list of the 100 Greatest Drummers. They also did a poll to find the best bassist, and John Entwistle came out on top - by a mile. Both now sadly departed.
Was John Bonham number one for drummer?
@@troywilliams2777Yes.
@@troywilliams2777 Yes he was.
If you had to distill all of rock music down to one moment, the drum and scream at the end might well be that moment, Superlative band, superlative song and a great thoughtful reaction. Thank you
If i may, if you've never heard this where the eff have you been for the last 40 freakn years. This is one of the best songs in rock and roll. Musta been a good party under that rock.
Finally, reactors who strongly appreciate the lyrics, and have the same interest in message music as I do.
Love your compassion and empathy for all of us under the same old boss! An anthem for all times because little ever changes. I think the Who match the Beatles for the fantastic chemistry between four different characters and great musicians. This was something that Pete Townsend drew on for their album Quadrophenia.
Great reaction, you understood the lyrics more than any reactions I've seen. Your knowledge is impressive, as well as your command of the English language. Better than many English people and certainly better than most Americans 😂😂. The Who are a terrific British Rock band with a huge catalogue of hits. Songs I think you would love include Baba O'Reilly, Love Reign O'er Me, Behind Blue Eyes, My Generation, Pinball Wizard and many many more. I look forward to seeing you react to The Who again....but don't get fooled again 😉😂🤣
“Certainly better then most Americans “?, it’s idiot thinking like this why the world is in such sad shape
Very good review and your English is great, both of you.
We're all hoping for change, brother. Don't give up! And always vote, people. Solidarity. ✌
Things are the same today as then. The rich and powerful try to stay rich and powerful and set up systems and laws to protect them and keep the middle class and the poor down. That will never change. Money talks.
No, "money doesn't talk, it swears" (Bob Dylan)
Vote Orangeman, changes in Nov. ?
I Hope you do not get fooled again, I would love to sit and have a chat with you both , love the way you interact . x
Kieth Moon was one of Rocks greatest Drummers RIP
Hey guys!!! Thanks for this reaction!!! An unic band. They played in 69's Woodstock. There's a few TV series with their music at the begining. CIS, CSI Miami, CSI New York, etc they are amazing!! Greettings from Argentina. Keith, the drum player, RIP, was awesome!!!
You're right about it being an angry song! They were living and performing all through the "consciousness revolution" of the 60s, they were at the famous Woodstock festival, and by 1970 what had changed? They also created the amazing _Quadrophenia_ double album around this time, all about growing up poor, young and working class in London, which is just as angry in a different way. Amazing band, and some of their songs are actual comedy, but mostly it's full of anger and regret.
As per Roger, some bands played music for lovers, The Who played music for fighters.
No worries - it's a LOT worse today!
The very definition of ROCK.
Excellent analysis, feel free to vote but... yeah.
That last line was like a slap in the face, hey wake up people!
It is high quality audio & video because it was being filmed for use in a movie "The Kids Are Alright".
OMFG i, born 1981 and never saw this thank you for this. >3
IM BORN IN THE WRONG CENTURY
I, sorry for caps lock but still its that powerful to me
Really insightful point about the ‘different energies’ in the band. They were famous for almost coming to blows on stage. But somehow it all worked. And it was an energy on a different level as a consequence.
Good job. I agree
Greatest rock band that ever rock America
Rocked BRITAIN then the WORLD!
You just hit my favourite by them and it still has what it takes as we are today! 1971 from the album Who's Next originally. The old rocker approves. 👍👍🤟🤟
It's good to hear a good discussion of the lyrics 👍
This clip was filmed for a documentary about the Who called "The Kids are Alright", so it was filmed in 35mm I believe, the same used for actual movies. It also allows for cleaning up the footage over time, and why this looks so good being so old, as I believe this is the remastered version. The Who was also very much a visual band, and they filmed almost everything they ever did, which was great for the history of the band. Sadly, a group like Van Halen as an example have almost next to zero quality archival footage of their earliest years. Which is such a shame, as Eddie is one of the best to ever play, and not seeing and hearing those early shows is almost criminal.
Great discussion in regards to the politics of the song, as I've been on both sides of the argument in my 51 years. Until 2018, I had voted once in my life, and that was as a person of color who heard time and time again growing up, how much others had sacrificed for that right. After I voted that one time, I saw nothing change, and figured why bother? My wife who is white and a few years younger than me, had pretty much the same experiences(had only voted once ages ago). Enter 2018, and we saw first hand how fragile this all is, and we have been voting ever since. You really can't say things NEVER change, because if that was the case, women still wouldn't be allowed to vote, blacks would still be slaves and gays/interracial couples wouldn't be allowed to marry(just to name a few). Things always change, maybe just not as fast as we would often like. Thanks for the reaction as well as the commentary.
This song was created the year I was born... the fact that it's still relevant in 2024 is astounding... anyway... the song is great outside of the politics!!! Another great reaction! ❤
Ihr beide seid so sympathisch, es macht Spaß euch zuzusehen 👍
Greetings from Germany
Michael
Congrads !! 52 subscribers . Your Coffee mates have very good choices of bands. Pete Townsend (guitar)"Who" inducted Pink Floyd into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Gilmour has played with Pete before. hope to buy about 10 more coffees with P.F. and Gilmour
You said this song was from 1978, that's actually when this live performance was filmed. The SONG was written and recorded in 1971, when the Vietnam War was going on, when there was promises to end the War by US Presidents (Nixon), and so The Who, although English, were speaking about these empty lying politicians like Nixon, who promised to end the war, but actually increased the war and killed Americans for 5 more years and bombed the hell out of innocent civilians in Cambodia and Vietnam for no gain. I'm not saying this song was specifically about that, its more general obviously and applies to the English govt also. (Note John Lennon spoke out against the Vietnam War in songs like Give Peace a Chance, Imagine etc). This was their statement at the frustration of empty promises.
La cancion pertenece al LP who's next del año 1971, esta grabación corresponde al film The kids are alright de 1979, y este concierto es de 1978. The Who es la expresión única del rock, adelantados años luz a otras bandas de su época.
Excellent reaction !
The greatest rock band in the world.
I will only vote when there is someone worth voting for,
Voting is so important that here in Australia registering to vote is mandatory and voting is compulsory at the federal and state levels (not for local councils) and fines are imposed for not doing so. It is a Westminster form of government ( except that the upper house at the federal level is a US style senate) with a preference voting system ( placing 1, 2, 3, etc alongside the candidates names on the ballot paper) and candidates must accrue 50%+ 1 of the votes to be elected. This ensures that those old enough to vote are involved and that all candidates are elected with a clear majority of the votes cast. On average 95% of those eligible vote. Compare this to the US where less than 75% are registered and the voter turn out, on average, is less than 60% of those who have registered. The last federal election had a roughly 69% participation rate and that is a record. The essence of Pete Townsend's great lyrics are so true, before, when and since they were written.
Voting is important for the legitimacy of the Rich Men North of Richmond - but not so much for democracy. I fully understand why your State is forcing you to vote - making voting voluntary, as in a free society, would reveal the lack of respect those people deserve.
@@HenrikRClausen Voting in Australia has been compulsory since 1924. My state, South Australia, when it was still a British colony, was one of the first places in the World to grant the vote to women in the 1890s. Modern democracy is about getting a decision from the biggest possible majority. That can't happen if people don't register or bother to vote. The voting system in Australia may look like "forcing" but it is the same as having laws about speed limits on roads, it is necessary with some aspects to set an applicable standard and enforce it to get people to do the right thing.
The BLOODY WHO !
🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
This was for a documentary film, shot in 35MM, hence the great quality.
Pete Townshend: bounds about the stage
Keith Moon: beats the s?!t outta his drums
Roger Daltrey: sings his lungs out
John Entwistle: “Did I turn the oven off before I left the house?”
John Entwistle 🎉Bass 🔥🎇 Keith Moon🥁, Pete🎸, a dramatic guitarist, besides Floyd, LedZep, Purple, Rainbow and Fleetwood Mac the supegroup...
The loudest band in the world (Guinness book)were pioneering hard rock...
Deep Purple is the loudest :)
One of the BEST bands ever! Who's Next album was a Masterpiece! Every song a gem!! This is a great performance!!❤
Imagine a world where the politics were about civility and humanity instead of blame and bashing! Great song that is timeless, for the more things change the more they stay the same.
Yes a great line from a Rush song. Also very true as well.
@@2727rogersvery old French saying - Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose.
Great reaction! Keep them coming! 😁🇺🇸
I'm 74 and I've always voted. Do what I do: Hold your nose and vote.
The drummer? You never mentioned the drummer! The greatest drummer ever, Keith Moon, who inspired every drummer since. Still love you both in your reactions X
Freedom... Freedom ...
The song was originally recorded in 1971 and you really need to react to that! The WHO was the most iconic rock band in history. Many try to copy or achieve that level and none ever did!
Loudest recorded scream in concert. Guinness book for many years.
They recorded this shot and Baba O'Riley at Film Studios Shepperton/London for the movie The Kids Are Alright, that's why the quality is so good. There is also a soundtrack for it.
Never lose hope, maybe you have to start small with yourself and in your own environment. But you have 100% right👍❤!
Baba, 6570. Pedants Rus.
Thanks, blackout. Have fun with good music!@@blackbob3358
Love your reaction! Interesting note, as I know you both love Pink Floyd. Pete Townsend and David Gilmour are good friends. Gilmour has played on several songs of solo Townsend albums. And the Quadrophenia live show .. I believe at Wembley stadium. Doing the lead vocals on " The Dirty Jobs"
Dominica, you want to understand The Who? Take four superlative artists in their own right. Now tell each artist that their task is to provide a performance that upstages all the other artists. This is The Who.
There is a video on You Tube where John Entwistle's bass is separated from all the other instruments in this video. When you realise what John was contributing, you begin to realise why he was the finest bassist in the world. Even Lemmy of Motorhead was asked who is the greatest bassist in the world? Lemmys response was, 'No contest at all....John Entwistle.'
Pete Townshend (lead guitar) would taunt John by saying, 'Can you play this?' John would play Pete's challenge, and then say, 'Now can you play this?' And Pete couldn't! Truly the greatest bassist there has ever been.
GREAT REACTION!! Share BOTH of you thoughts on the matter: One votes, seemingly, for the lesser of two evils and it still doesn't matter - they all seem to be AWFUL! Makes me sad and angry, all at the same time. It is discouraging that a 40-some-odd year old tune STILL APPLIES to our world, today. Musically: AWESOME TUNE! Lyrically: AWESOME TUNE - very thought provoking. If we could just CHANGE it all, somehow, to give hope for the future! HUGS to YOU, BOTH!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Greatest rock band ever 👍
This was shot on film in a film studio live in front of an audience so the picture and audio quality is as good as 1978 can get - film will scan to modern video very high, whereas if it was on videotape, the quality would suffer greatly.
Hello cousins, you remind of visiting with my family happy chatty times together ❤
You nailed it. Bravo!
I'm loving your reactions, guys. Both in general and to this one in particular. The Who are the greatest for me. They innovated and they took chances. They pretty much wrote the book for rock bands. That song was originally released in 1971. You should check it out. It's from their WHO'S NEXT ALBUM.
If you like his voice, Please listen to Ride a rock horse, I'm sure you will not be disappointed, love your reactions , All the best from Wales . U K :)
Such a prophetic song. The world was screwed up back then. Look at the world today. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. Just pick up a guitar and play😂
Great reaction. Really enjoyed it.
Enjoy, it's only rock.
As others have said, "meet the new boss, same as the old boss" is one of the best rock lyrics. summarizes things in just a few words, how often our leaders let the people down. or even worse---authoritarianism, oppression, corruption, etc.
Hello from Australia to my favourite reviewers - you guys are great! AND you don't spend all our time drinking coffe or whatever and actually watch the vidio instead of yourself trying to look cool. You should try "Baba O'Riley" and "I Can See For Miles" at least but all their songs are brilliant. Highlights for me were John Entwhislte (Bass) standing well out of the way of the mic being thrown everywhere by Roger Daltrey (you can it flashimg past him) and a Keith Moon classic - taping his headphones on and knocking a cymbal of and then Pete Townhend smahing it with his guitar - classic! Saw them in Ausralia once and it's one of my favourite concerts. Thanks again!
Great antiwar song and yeah we did get fooled again didn’t we
Excellent reaction video. It would be great if the surviving Who members did a song called “We Did Get Fooled Again.”
Another legendary protest song from the Vietnam era was “Effigy,” by Creedence Clearwater Revival. I think you would like it.
The problem with the voting system these days is that it is mainly theatre to give us hope. All of the parties are working for the same corporate elites, it's these that need dealing with. "If voting made any difference they wouldn't let us do it" - Mark Twain
When you ask for a Transformers (Zeppelin), and you get a Go-Bot.
I would love you to go down "The Who"'s rabbit hole. They have such wonderful songs. We took our 11year old daughter to a Who concert back in 1991. Such energy! You should watch the movie Tommy. It is a rock opera they wrote. It's pretty amazing! As always, great rection! God Bless!🐢
That's why you have to vote Because They're hoping you don't vote and then you give up and then they're free to do whatever they want
🤘🤘
buna dimineata good morning
Try Led Zeppelin live at Madison Square Garden 1973.. talk about stage presence… Robert Plant lead singer!!
Are you 16 . Wtf you've never heard Won't t Get Fooled Again THEE BEST Rock Anthem ever .
It was the 70's and also The Who were famous for destroying their equipment on stage.
Yes, the pioneers of instrument destruction, copied so many times.
They also destroyed there hotel rooms lol
Talking of people using music to express their political views, check out the following artists: Rage Against the Machine; Akala; Stiff Little Fingers; Bad Religion.
you really should watch a show when at the end of the show they rip the whole stage apart. Drum's and all .
I don't think Townshend had hurt his finger, I think he's holding a red plectrum.
One of the most muted reactions to That Scream I've ever seen!!
Roger did a good job of pretending to be out of control. Pete did not need to pretend.
Are you kidding (I think not, unfortunately) with your observation?
Chystal clear color film quality & audio pre-dates 1978 by almost fifty years by that year of 1978.
The Beatles "GET BACK" (2021) Alan Jackson documentary color footage is entirely from what was shot in January 1969 and onwards "fer chrissakes"!!
This tune is part of what was initially intended as a double album where the recording/writing sessions began in1970.."Lifehouse/Whos Next", is perhaps Rock n Rolls' first experimental journey into synthesizer territory..Pete Townsend suffered a tyoe of mental breakdown during recording, and considered "Who's Next" a failure..Yet, the album achieved gold record status in 1971-(year of original release.)..
Who's Next, is an album where every song on it is exceptional..
There is far more interesting "stuff" involving The Who, and will be great research for you both..✌️
it was recorded on Acetate(film)...just sayin':)
You are correct, some people get richer and richer, but only on paper/stockmarket, that doesn't make you a better person.
The real problem starts when people who got famous/rich think that their opinion is more important than the opinion of the
old retired bricklayer in the pub.
The drummer once drove a Rolls Royce into a swimming pool....
Have tried the group "Jinjer", try the song Pisces? You'll enjoy it, I promise
Yes, we did react to a couple of their songs on our channel. Check out our videos 😁
if I might suggest another stop on your introduction to The Who, try 'A Quick One (While He's Away)' from The Rolling Stones Rock And Roll Circus performance
If you want to have fun with a song by The Who you should check out "Squeeze Box". But if you want to get a little rougher, I recommend the hole album "Live At Leeds" -> thats a documentation of Rock history from them. Anyway, I'll stay tuned and thank you for sharing. Best regards @all from hamburg (germany)
I believe they used 35 mm film for this.
The fabulous Who, most all of whose songs have a powerful message. As a USA citizen, I'll just say this about the democratic voting process: people certainly have the right to vote or not, & it IS often a choice of the lesser of 2 evils. I always think, though, of places where there IS no opportunity to vote, & there's no chance that things will EVER change. We can be grateful we have that opportunity. Thanks for your reaction.
You hit on it. What this song is really about: voting changes nothing. George Carlin said it best, the table is tilted the game is rigged. Voting just gives us the illusion that we have a choice. We don't. The new boss is always the same as the old boss.
Should have went for the original studio album version.
Oh: Being out of Romania, you have an advantage: You know how to recognize corruption, and deal with us. We north Europeans have a lot harder time facing up to that problem.
R & R only
