    As a teen in the 80's, we had awesome music! I remember hearing this song and being blown away. So, I sat patiently until it was played again so I could record it with my cassette player.
    YES! We made our own MIX tapes!!!!

      I love The Who songs like "Wont' get fooled again" and "Baba O'Riley" but this is just a fantastic pop song. I'm a computer and electronics girl and made my own MP3 doorbell - the chorus of this is one of my door chimes 🥰

    • @FudgeYeahLinusLAN
      @FudgeYeahLinusLAN 2 года назад +3

      Ironically, this live version is actually better produced than the original album version. They applied some sort of weird phase shifting on the bass guitar on the album which made it less punchy on regular speakers. Can't do that in live settings because live venues are essentially "mono". Centering the bass in the mid/side field really helps the song.

    As a kid growing up in the 1960s in DC, black folks were primarily focused on Motown and Stax records, but when the British invasion hit, it wasn't only about the Beatles, the Who made its mark, too. Pete Townsend had his respect and now he has reached legendary status. Hats off to one of the greatest to ever do it.

    When people keep repeating
    That you'll never fall in love
    When everybody keeps retreating
    But you can't seem to get enough
    Let my love open the door
    Let my love open the door
    Let my love open the door
    To your heart (let my love open the door, ooh)
    (Let my love open the door)
    (Let my love open the door, ooh)
    (Let my love open the door)
    When everything feels all over
    Everybody seems unkind
    I'll give you a four-leaf clover
    Take all worry out of your mind
    Let my love open the door
    Let my love open the door
    Let my love open the door
    To your heart (let my love open the door, ooh)
    To your heart (let my love open the door, ooh)
    (Let my love open the door, ooh)
    (Let my love open the door, ooh)
    The only key to your heart
    That can stop you falling apart
    Try today, you'll find this way
    Come on and give me a chance to say
    Let my love open the door
    It's all I'm livin' for
    Release yourself from misery
    There's only one thing gonna set you free
    That's my love
    That's my love
    Let my love open the door (ooh)
    Let my love open the door (ooh)
    Let my love open the door (ooh)
    Let my love open the door
    When tragedy befalls you (ooh)
    Don't let it drag you down
    Love can cure your problems (ooh)
    You're so lucky I'm around
    Let my love open the door
    Let my love open the door
    Let my love open the door
    To your heart

Well worth a listen if you can find it.
