  1. And who would forget what Brexit Daltrey held for true a couple of years ago. I wonder whether he is seeing any connection between his political views back then and the songs he's singing.

  2. No one knows what it's like
    To be the bad man
    To be the sad man
    Behind blue eyes
    And no one knows what it's like
    To be hated
    To be fated to telling only lies
    But my dreams they aren't as empty
    As my conscience seems to be

  3. That was better than I expected - his voice is still strong. I've watched a lot of RITFW covers but I think that's the 1st one to feature violins.

    Who's Next is one of my favourite albums of all time, and Behind Blue Eyes is a highlight. My mother didn't approve of the album sleeve though, so had to keep it out of sight mostly, alongside Sticky Fingers :-)
