could be wrong, but it seems like this song related to you in the form of a relationship. i bring that up because i bought this album february 2002, and for a couple months after i bought this album this was my favorite song and for some odd reason it made me think of the girl i was madly in love with at the time. i think its amazing that an album written 25+ years ago can still become relevent to present times. thank you for posting this video.
"The White City, that's a JOKE of a name!" fuking song just crushes. Hard to believe that only a few thousand people have looked this one up, compared to millions for schlock.
The White City is the name of the Housing Project that Peter , of the Who , grew up in. It was poor, but Pete was fond of it. He has always cared about the plight of urban youth. A great song, from a great album, of the same name. THUMBS UP!!
When I saw it listed in the search results, I have to admit I expected the video to suck. But I was really taken by how good your work was. Not Hollywood, don't get me wrong, but there is a sad joy in this song that you seem to have captured beautifully.
Townshend is the SHIT!!!!!

I'm really digging the video too. The hardscrabble background, the innocence set in concrete....
The girl twirling round and round at the start of the loud section is spot on. Nice job.

This is a great song. I had this album in constant rotation, when I was young, and the world was still fairly new to me.
