Pete Townsend Crashing by Design

[plasticweapon]

my favorite pete townshend song.amazing how he fuses depressing lyrics with a wonderful upbeat melody(also the song could have been written about my father).

[pdbordelon]

Great song...HATE this picture/video...wtf? Ruined because of this.

[bigchickenfu]

song about the U.S. and world economies . The N.W.O. @ work !

[nmm2122]

This song takes on a good bit of his spiritualty also. Listen to lyrics and imagine this at the Jersey Show house. And realize what we are becoming.

[genesisroy]

regards from the octoberfest in munich/germany

VERY underrated song. One of his solo best.

[dersh65]

Pete takes me to a different space and time....that's why I love him.

[06juli1811]

@dersh65 that makes two of us! :-))

[robbugman]

Come on kids,*** T O W N S H E N D *** is the proper spelling of his name..lets show a little respect......

[0marigolds]

@robbugman whoah, not only is the "H" silent, it became invisible. Thanks for pointing this out and I do consider myself an individual that reads, but whoah, my day is complete having learned this one new thing.

[qdog568]

@0marigolds The H is not silent. Towns-Hend.

[COMMACK4KEV]
