Uploaded on Oct 13, 2008

Written by Pete Townshend
Recorded at IBC Studios, Pye Studios and Regent Sound, London in the autumn of 1966. Pete's first rock opera contains six separate songs, 'Her Man's Gone', 'Crying Town', 'We Have A Remedy', 'Ivor The Engine Driver', 'Soon Be Home', and 'You Are Forgiven'. Along the way the unnamed heroine pines for her absent lover, selects Ivor as a substitute, regrets her folly when her man returns, confesses her indiscretion and is ultimately forgiven.John:"We wanted to put 'cellos on the track but Kit Lambert said we couldn't afford it. That's why we sing 'cello, cello, cello, cello,'...where we thought they should be."

    Green Day's versions of anything, especially their own songs, suck.

    He posted a reply which said 'Dookie - 1994. This year - 2013. 2013 - 1994 = 9 years.' He quickly deleted it. ^^

    Lay off, he might be a time traveler that got confused about the era he was in. Or he just doesn't know his green day.
