I'm One - The Who

[artmacify]

this is a very nice song to leacing to when you are chilling

[301b0y]

0:38 - 0:52 is the greatest musical moment for me as a listener. That bit just speaks to me somehow...and so does the rest of the song.

[ThePogle]

bell boy! big hug for keith love light and laughter peace!

[ThePogle]

dont you just live it/love it?

[ylwf]

Excellent sound...

[301b0y]

"I got a Gibson without a case, but I can't get that even tanned look on my face."

[ylwf]

@301b0y Illfitting clothes, and I blend in the crowd, fingers so clumsy, voice too loud. But I'm one

[JohnnyCxviii]

No band spoke to my teenage years better than the Who. All my anxiety & rage, love & hate comes through in the music of the Who. Pete's words are gold, as his voice.

[JohnnyCxviii]

Moon feels out this song so well. His drumming is just perfect.

[poodlepants2008]

the BEST !

[StonesFloydZepPurple]

Every year is the same And I feel it again, I'm a loser - no chance to win. Leaves start falling, Come down is calling, Loneliness starts sinking in. But I'm one. I am one. And I can see That this is me, And I will be, You'll all see I'm the one. Where do you get Those blue blue jeans Faded patched secret so tight. Where do you get That walk oh so lean Your shoes and your shirts All just right. But I'm one etc. I got a Gibson Without a case But I can't get that even tanned look on my face <3

[ultimateshield4ever]

[StonesFloydZepPurple]

@ultimateshield4ever

[MrDboyle100]

The Who at there prime!

[ChristineLeakeyMusic]

one of my favourite albums growing up... it helped to define me. :)

[Vertigo2903]

This album is very special to me

[otaviotheman]

This is what makes good lyrics... if you can identify with them.

I feel as if Pete was singing about me.

One of the best songs ever writen.

[theslipknotfan111]

@otaviotheman I so get where you're coming from man!

[jhoch5]

best album of all time, easily

[MickMould1]

Anyone living on the breadline will be able to identify with this song,Pete has such a genius way of connecting with your average joe in the street,thats what i admire so much about his songwriting..Quadrophenia is my favourite album of all time..breathtakingly brilliant.

[pennstatefan]

This is an awesome tune found on one of rock and roll's greatest rock operas and sung from one of rock and roll's greatest bands.

[Fethemod]

I`m not alone... we're a bunch!!!!

[AntarcticAnt]

Every year, every autumn, I listen to this song. Not their best song, but it genuinely makes me cry, but bloody hell, how it boosts my confidence.

[Gruntfuttock100]

Townshend is a golden god

[thornhead1994]

The Who are by far my favourite band. I feel that I have a real personal connection with Pete's music and the band, it's almost as if they're speaking to me. Whenever I hear The Who mentioned on T.V or on the radio, my ears prick up as though I just heard the name of a friend. Truly, one of the greatest bands ever, in my opinion

[toiwin]

brilliant !

[SWmarko]

Freaks And Geeks, Quadrophenia :D :D my favourite band

[miwar2468]

The Who Is Great, however never ever ever discredit The Stones or The Beatles

That is just wrong!

[centerforce2]

Kinda surprised Pete hasn't let Levi use this on a commercial or something.

[HumanPapilloma]

Beatles suck. Stones suck. I'll take more of The Who any day.

[DavePerry2012]

@HumanPapilloma Why "suck"? They were all great bands from the 60's-'70's.

[Mr11MUSICMAN]

@HumanPapilloma They're amazing, you fuck. Just as amazing as The Who.

[DiZBlOwZ]

@HumanPapilloma STTTTTTTTUUUUUUUUUPPPPPPPIIIDD­DDDDDD

[HumanPapilloma]

@DiZBlOwZ Beatles fan.

[invaderzimgirl14]

♥...love it...

[lauallred]

as a 20 something I find myself attracted to older music like The Who... Screw all this Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber crap. Hail the era where recording artists held talent!

[grantjames333]

@lauallred I was very much the same way in my twenties, and there is sooooo much great music that newer generations will never, ever hear because they will never have exposure to it and won't seek it out on their own. You have good taste!

[woodiestone]

First album I ever bought.Cut 4 lawns to buy it and I still have it.Long live rock!!

[lpohjala40]

freaks and geeks brought me here. i love bill

[8DoverNJ]

Look, the Beatles and the Stones were okay and had some good songs BUT THE WHO had a different connection to something a bit beyond in our conscience. You Who fans know what i'm talking about. But for the rest of ya, when you hear that redundant question about "The Beatles or The Stones?," just answer THE WHO!!!!!!!! No apologies!!!!!

[scottmackeen]

@8DoverNJ Disagree. To me, The Beatles were the band that "had a different connection to something a bit beyond in our conscience." But yeah, The Who were/are also brilliant. Townshend is a genius songwriter; one of the best.

[JohnnyCxviii]

@8DoverNJ They're great bands all of them. I'm not a big Stones fan, so when I hear the question I usually say that my two fave bands are the Beatles and the Who. As a teen, I adored the Beatles, but as I've matured the Who have taken on greater prominence. Both bands have meant a great deal to me in different ways. I usually hate comparing/rating bands--it's all how a band speaks to an individual. I could see how the Stones would be a person's #1 band depending on that person's upbringing.

[8DoverNJ]

@JohnnyCxviii Yeah, it's all preference in the end. Everyone has a different life experience. I have much respect for the Beatles but I definitely connected a great deal with The Who's music especially during my years in Indoctrination Camp aka High School. Your comment about Pete's voice being perfect for "I'm One" is well said, btw. Many Thanks.

[toiwin]

@8DoverNJ my 12 yr old and 10 yer old love the old heavy rock, they think just cos it is on their guitar hero game that they are the ones that know it all and not us

[LordJolliffe]

@8DoverNJ Beatles, Stones, The Who - It's all Rock 'N Roll to me man

[JohnnyCxviii]

This song was made for Pete's voice and no one else's. "I'm a loser, no chance to win." I felt like that during my teen years. Everyone else's life seemed so much easier, as if they knew the script and I did not. It takes a vulnerable yet angry voice to do this song justice. Pete nails it.

[glennfs1954]

@JohnnyCxviii

echos my teen years too. I had some dark times then but this always seemed to help me through them

[TDJCCSGC]

Every year it's the same and I feel it again I'm a loser no chance to win...

The sound of my adolescence, pickled and preserved. Thank you Mr Townshend.

[frederickus]

You're never alone with a quadropenic!!!

[frederickus]

@frederickus oops....quadrophenic!!!

[HerComesMax]
