#TheWho #BabaORiley #Reaction
You were blown away first listen in 2023. Now try to imagine how it was for us first time 52 years ago in 1971. There was simply nothing else like this around.
Sounded like a UFO pulled up and rolled down the window! 😂
I’m so jealous of someone getting to hear it for the first time! It never gets old!
I saw The Who when they opened for Hermits Hermits. God soooo long ago. This one of my Who favorite
I was born in 72, but my senior year in high school I listened to almost nothing but The Who. I also watched the movie Quadrophenia about 10 times.
@@bedrosnersesyan6975 Lmao so accurate, I gotta use this now! Second best comment I’ve seen on Baba O’Riley was “Hearing this for the first time felt like your first kiss with your crush.”
There are maybe two dozen truly great bands in history. The Who are one of those bands. They were amazing.
Stones, Who, Zep, Santana
Only 2 dozen? I think you must have been living under a rock.
Truly great. They're not wrong. @michaelb2388
@@michaelb2388agreed
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Imagine being 15 years old, living on the streets, and hearing this song for the first time. It pretty much blew me away in 1971. I felt like he was talking to me directly.
It must have felt like a lightning strike.
@@steverakes6182 Kinda, yeah.
I’ve listened to Baba thousands of times since I first heard it in 71….still so fresh, spine tingling, genius.
Definitely a timeless masterpiece
ABSOLUTELY !!!!!
A great example of why Keith Moon is held in such high esteem as a drummer.
Pete Townsend does most of their songwriting. He is truly masterful.
Imagine being a 14-year-old kid putting this LP on the turntable for the first time. This song opens! And the whole album is actually this good!
I was listening to all music back then, and for me, hearing it when it came out was literally transcending.Those notes are so different from anything else at the time, including what LZ was playing,(which represented the tier of blues based hard rock, revolving around a repeating lick and super heavy beat). Many prefer that type of music more. I preferred this back then as it represented something totally different.
One Friday night in late 1979, I became a Who fan instantly by seeing them perform this song live on The Midnight Special (Shepperton Studios, 1978...same recording session as Won't Get Fooled Again). It's another song when they perform it LIVE...it's rock and roll at its best!
For me, it's Daltrey's vocal on this one. The power and authority. As you said, "coming in hot" - and he stays there without hardly screaming (except for maybe "they're all wasted!"). Yeah this is one of the all-timers.
Good old Leather Lungs.....what a voice
The Who are a great British rock band formed in London in 1964. They are considered one of the most influential rock bands of the 20th century & have sold over 100 million records worldwide. They have so many great songs such as "I Can't Explain", "The Kids Are Alright", "My Generation", "Won't Get Fooled Again", "Substitute", "Happy Jack", "I Can See For Miles", "Behind Blue Eyes", "Boris The Spider", "Pictures Of Lily", "Magic Bus", "Who Are You", "Pinball Wizard" etc.
I think Pinball Wizard should be his next reaction. I always think of Elton John's 4 ft boots from the movie. I also like his cover of the song.
"Love, reign o're me" has to be in that list as well!
@@frshunteragreed, and mind as well throw 5:15 on that list as well!
Hey, Dagmar!!
Also The Real Me
Get into them, man. The Who are one of those acts who shaped or even changed the art form. Monumental is one way to describe their influence in rock music.
Yeah, growing up in 60’s-70’s was like this. Week after week, great song after rock great song. It was wonderful.
I grew up with the WHO and they were incredible. Still love listening to them. I was so blessed to have had the great music of the 60s 70s and 80s.
Like many/most of the Who's catalog this one just gets better with volume. Zeppelin's a garden party in an old castle, The Who is a pub brawl.
"Zeppelin's a garden party in an old castle, The Who is a pub brawl." LOVE THIS!!!
Wow, yes!
Deep Purple are cognac in dinner jackets and Sabbath are witches convening in a forest.
When the violin meets the drums...holy smokes. Definitely my favorite Who song.
Ok! Here we go. The Who. My favorite band through my teen years in the 70’s. This is a deep dive! Each member is a genius in their talent. Roger Daltrey, one of the best rock vocalists of all time, Keith Moon, a beast on the drums, one of the best ever; John Entwistle, one of the greatest bassists of all time, and Pete Townshend (pronounced “send”, not “shend”), the mastermind behind most of the writing, arrangements, production, and a hell of a guitarist and keyboard player. Pete plays all the synths.
The next song you listen to should really be “Won’t Get Fooled Again”, their most famous piece. Listen to each member separately in that song. Each one of them is absolutely incredible, like they’re all playing lead at the same time.
“Who’s Next” is one of the best rock albums of all time. Not a bad song on it. But you can’t dive into The Who without experiencing their rock operas. The first being “Tommy”, from 1969 (later made into a movie with various musicians, from Tina Turner, to Elton John). Tommy was very experimental, and groundbreaking at the time. The second is “Quadrophenia” from 1973, many fans’ favorite album. Pete is simply a brilliant song writer.
This is a deep rabbit hole. Enjoy! Looking forward to it!
I agree with all you said, 'cept for Zeppelin being my fav in my teens, lol. it really is astonishing and almost scandalous (!) that SalvoG has not yet ridden on The Magic Bus! I couldn't agree more that "Wont get fooled again" should be next for him. Gobsmack him proper-like, right? SO much more after that as well, as you correctly point out with the two Rock Operas and then all the rest! Sal loves him some synth, so he'll especially dig the wild ones that Pete came up with!
@@joescott8877 Funny you said that about Led Zeppelin. I remember in high school back then, there was always a friendly debate between the fans of Led Zeppelin and The Who, arguing which was better. I love them both now, but The Who holds a special place in my heart. And speaking of Magic Bus, “Live At Leeds” is another must hear album!
The Who are one of the greatest rock bands ever (arguably Top 10). This is one of their greatest songs ever (also arguably Top 10 for them). So what's that make this...simply one of the greatest rock songs ever written.
The Who appear as the theme songs for all the CSI franchises
1. The Who - Who Are You
Opening theme of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (2000-2015)
2. The Who - Won't Get Fooled Again
Opening theme of CSI: Miami (2002-2012).
3. The Who - Baba O'Riley
Opening theme of CSI: New York
4. The Who - I Can See For Miles
Opening theme of CSI: Cyber (2015-2016).
Townshend, Davies, Lennon, McCartney, Wilson, Lightfoot, and few others were among the greatest composers of the 20th century. All different, but incredibly prolific as well as brilliant.
The Who were one of the great bands of all time. Other masterpieces include "Love Reign O'er Me," "Won't Get Fooled Again," "Pinball Wizard" and for live performances, try the album "Live at Leeds."
Yup, the Live version of MAGIC BUS is one of my favorites.
This synth sound throughout this song was actually a Lowrey Berkshire Deluxe TBO-1 home organ, that Pete Townshend set to the Marimba Repeat setting. It sounds like a sequencer setting on a synthesizer.
Roger Daltrey is easily in the running for best rock vocalist ever!
Daltrey was an early rock screamer. Did a tremendous job. 1971, a time of some progressive songs in rock.
Peter Townsend and the Who frequently sang about alienation among young people in the 1960s. It's one of the underlying themes of their great rock opera, “Tommy.” For an earlier take on the theme, listen to “My Generation,” considered by some to be the Who's signature song. It is also on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame list of 500 songs that shaped rock and roll, and it ranks #11 on the Rolling Stone list of the 500 greatest songs of all time. Try listening to the extended live version on their 1970 concert album, “Live at Leeds.” I must have worn out the grooves on my vinyl copy of that album in my teens.
I love your use of the word 'aura'. This song definitely has an aura around it and I don't think it's possible to get tired of it. It's just epic.
If you've ever watched any of the CSI shows they all use Who songs as their theme songs. The original CSI and the reboot uses "Who Are You", CSI: Miami used "Won't Get Fooled Again", and CSI: New York used this one..."Baba O'Riley". Every time I hear one of the songs it always brings to mind the show it's on.
Wow…. Loved your reaction… it really is fun to see reactions to simply amazing songs from an era when the musicians worked hard with melody and creativity. Such an obvious contrast to the newer…. “music.” There are still tons and tons of songs for you! I’ve noticed that you love keyboards. There’s a song from 1970 by a group called Sugarloaf. It’s called ‘Green eyed lady.’ They didn’t have a lot of hits but this song was awesome!!! It has a good organ solo in it that I know you would appreciate. Maybe someday you will give it a listen! Thank you for your reactions! 😀⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Judging from his reaction, he likes violin too. Dust in the Wind by Kansas would be a good one to listen to as well.
I think he would love that!
Pleas do "Who Are You" next, it's so powerful. Love when the piano comes in on the third verse. Perfection.
Yeah, this song is a masterpiece. This is one of the songs that helped push rock forward and a must hear for any serious music lover. Fortunately, there are many many 70's songs that are so important to understanding music that was to come. So glad you're enjoying this experiencing roots rock. It's quite a pleasant journey.
You cannot loose with any of the 70s music..It's a wonderful trip. 😊
@@judyturner3850 I agree!
Another epic song from the golden era of Rock music. Compare the amazing texture and complexity and pure musicality of this to anything being produced now. No contest. The Who was at the top of their game here.
One of the greatest rock bands ever--Pete Townshend is a genius songwriter, Keith Moon was the greatest drummer ever, John Entwistle was the best bassist ever, and Roger Daltrey's vocals ROCK. You can't beat that combination. You must hear "Won't Get Fooled Again" next--it will blow you away!!!
This is my favorite song of all time! My Baba O' Riley story...I was at a concert back in 1982. During intermission all of a sudden Baba O' Riley started playing. The crowd erupted in a huge roar and the sound engineers cranked up the volume. One of my best concert memories!
"Anthemic" I believe might categorize it. I saw them the night after the Cincinnati stampede in 1979. This song seemed to have added impact when they played it (given the 11 deaths the night before)
There is more perfection on their "Quadrophenia" album. It's a Rock Opera, so play it from beginning to end. The song "5:15" is a favorite! or "Love, Reign o'er Me" can't be passed over! React to and experience those tunes, you'll love it.
Quadrophenia is my #1 Favorite Album!! A masterpiece!!!
5:15 and The Real Me are masterpieces
I concur.....
Love Reign O'er Me will always have a special place in my heart... One of my favorite two concerts that I ever attended was the Who's 25th anniversary tour of Tommy (the other one was the 70s Superfest) anyway back to the Who it was held at the old Foxboro stadium in Massachusetts and the concert was delayed over an hour because of rain, there were distant rumbles of thunder and you could see puddles on various tarps with wires running across... Everyone was praying that it wouldn't be cancelled.... Anyway the rain stopped, they took the stage and launched into Love Reign O'er Me as a rainbow lit the sky ( an actual one not staged effects) An incredible beginning to a magnificent concert
Now that you have some “The Who” under your belt, it’s time to tackle their 1969 rock opera double album “Tommy”! It’s #@&%$*#~@% astounding and was later turned into a stage musical and all star cast movie with Elton John, Tina Turner, Ann Margaret and Jack Nicholson among others. An all original music, multi-platinum selling album with some pretty innovative stuff. Welcome to “The Who”!
They are definitely one of the GOAT bands
Try Who are you or Behind blue eyes one day
The Who’s albums are storytelling from first song to last. Pete Townsend writes songs& plays guitar like the rock God he is
'Behind Blue Eyes' is a haunting Who masterpiece.
The opening is a Lowrey organ rigged up in a way that turned it into a sort of pioneering sequencer. The louder, rougher voice is Roger and the quieter bridge is sung by Pete (who also arranged the Who's songs). If you love this, you've got to hear "Won't Get Fooled Again" - it's basically "Baba O'Riley"'s bigger brother. I'd also recommend the official video of "Who Are You" which shows their studio dynamic as well as being a damn fine song.
Keith Moon is one of the main pioneers of hard-rock drumming.
One of my favorite Who tunes...love the violin, but I'm A Kansas fan... love rock violin.
Thanks for listening!
Top 10 songs of all time for me. You've got it right, it's not one section or another, it's how it is structured and plays out. It's epic.
The seamless transitions in this song are an absolute tribute to Townsend's genius in songwriting.
Teenage wasteland was the phrase that came to Townshend's mind when he looked out across the rubbish left behind at end of Isle of Wight pop festival in 1970 where The Who headlined with an epic show. Jimi Hendrix also there, died soon after
My FAVORITE BAND. I love your reaction on the preview of the video. LOL! Perfect second song. Pete Townsend was the one that sang "Don't cry, don't raise your eyes...". Roger Daltry has the heavy duty pipes and I had a MAJOR crush on him in my teens. Pete Townsend is the one that arranged the song, he arranged and wrote the majority of the songs AND wrote two rock operas. At some point after reacting to so many more of The Who songs, you MUST react to "Tommy" and "Quadrophenia", the two rock operas. Quadrophenia and Who's Next are my favorites. When you see them in concert, which they are retiring after this current tour, the crowd sings the chorus with them. You need to react to "Won't Get Fooled Again", "Long Live Rock", "Love Reign O'er Me", "Who Are You", "I'm One", "5:15", "Going Mobile", "See Me Feel Me", "Getting in Tune" and SO MUCH MORE.
"Who are You"(promo video) is a must watch. A great picture of the friendship the band had.
Yes! By his reaction to this, I think he’ll love Who Are You, too.
You said "when you hear something special....you kinda just know it." Man oh man, you actually made me re-connect with how great this song is. I take it for granted! I've heard so many times since it came out, I barely can "hear" the song anymore, if you know what i mean. Man oh man, what a mindblower this is. This whole album is a great one, it's a lot like "Led Zeppelin IV", an album that's been played so much on the radio to the point of overplaying. And so watching a reaction like this brings me back to the fundamentals: this is a masterpiece. The LYRICS. The sound. The performances. THANKS, SALVO. You are a GREAT music reactor.
From what I've read, the violin wasn't planned, Pete ran into the violinist, an acquaintance, on a break from recording, and basically said come on over and throw something on the track. The rest is legendary.
Definitely do more Who. Of Course. I would probably do "Who are you" because it is more in the same feel as Baba O'Reilly. Serious rocker. You can't can't stay in ur seat for this kind of music. :-)
This song and Behind Blue Eyes are my favorite Who songs. Simply awesome.
they have several perfect songs in addition to this: won't get fooled again, who are you, love reign over me and more
Welcome to The Who. There are so many awesome songs. AND, they did a rock opera called Tommy. You REALLY need to listen to it from the beginning. It's epic.
I remember well when this came out! Thank you taking me back to great music.
The Who isn't my favorite band from the era, but it really should be. Their body of work is unmatched even in the era musical masterpieces.
Graduated High School in 1982. Formative years in the 70's. This album...especially this song was heavily played at Middle and High School parties and events. My senior year, our class decided to enter the auditorium to this song for our Fall senior assembly. To this day, I am transported to that moment, the adrenalin so thick, we walked on air. Next to graduation day, this memory, this moment, this song in September 1981 was a spiritual/formative event.
That's how most of us felt the first time that we heard it, and after hearing it a bizillion times since then, we can experience it for the first time again thru you. My favorite part is when Keith Moon comes in on those drums. My fave line would be "I don't have to fight to prove I'm right, I don't need to be forgiven". Great reaction. More Who would do ya some good. I'd suggest a song for ya but I would go insane trying to choose! All that I will say is, buckle up!
As I get older and into my '50s, the who are even more impressive for what they did in terms of innovation composition and performance. Far surpassed the rolling Stones for me and yes even the Beatles. I said it
For me, it’s Pink Floyd and The Who. Just fucking incredible - geniuses, both bands.
Who's Next is the album, one of the greatest ever. You could react to every song on it. It come from an unfinished rock opera called Lifeboat, as I recall. Won't Get Fooled Again is probably the centerpiece of the aalbum.
Wasn't if lifehouse not lifeboat?
Gotta do this live at Shepperton. I promise it's even better.
My most favorite song by them, and YES, we called it Teenage Wasteland, lol. But we also called it by it's real name. If you didn't know one, you knew the other. The Flip side, aka B Side of this single, My Wife is actually a really good song, though pretty rarely ever mentioned. I think it was wriiten by the bass player, John Entwisle
1969 1970, 1971, 1972 You're mainly listening to the rock and roll from these years, which was absolutely amazing!!
My favourite band and not enough people know how talented they all are. Pete’s a genius, obviously. But the way John plays bass…. And Keith….. and Roger . Thanks for this
There are so many songs from The Who, you couldn't possibly keep up with all the requests.Wherever you start it's all good...I Sing to every song they have created and don't care Who is around. I don't care what you listen to just as long as you remember Who's Next!
"Who's Next" is such a great album with several hit songs. They open the album with the synth on "Baba O'Reilly" and close the album with a reprise of synth in "Won't Get Fooled Again" -- one of the most iconic rock songs of the '70s. I'll agree with everyone else who will be clamoring for that song! Others from this album that are "musts" are "Bargain" and "Behind Blue Eyes".
One thing I've noticed is that most of the lyric videos make the same mistake on "Baba O'Reilly". It's "I FARM for my meals", not "I FIGHT for my meals".
Great list of must-listens!
This is the OFFICIAL lyrics video from the Who. It's not a mistake.
What you call an organ is actually an early synthesizer. It didn't have keyboard input like later synths, Pete Townshend had to program it to play those sounds. You can hear it too in Won't Get Fooled Again (there's a reason this is considered by some to be their greatest album). The Who is a good deep dive.
Yes and no. The VCS 3, which he played on WGFA, *is* a synth, but the Lowery organ he used on this really was just an organ, set on a marimba stop to make it possible to play the eighth notes.
That piano/organ sound is being played on a synthesizer...gives that crisp, eerie, electronic vibe...don't know if the violin is too, or if it's just a violin.
This tune was just a mesmerizing, galvanizing tune...first time I heard it it stopped me dead in my tracks!
“Behind Blue Eyes” is another incredible song…but there are many Who songs you should hit.
The Who was a super group. Lucky to have seen them twice in person Bob O’Reilly ushered in young peoples power in a way that was different sort of sophisticated yet tribal at the same time another song of theirs that is good
Is called we won’t get fooled again. Kind of apropos in our time still.
I saw them in UK 1974. Best Rock group EVER!
Seen them 3 times twice indoors and once outdoors. Did not disappoint. Saw them perform the rock opera Quadrophenia once. Reign on Me a killer on it.
Way to go SalvoG! You just reacted to one of my top ten 10 songs of all time! Love the musical arrangement from the first beat to the last and the lyrics (before their time), with headphones - was an experience not to be forgotten. This was an awesome choice and a fantastic reaction, so a huge THANK YOU...👍👏💖
So funny that "Baba O'Riley" is mentioned nowhere in the song. When I first heard this on an underground college radio station, I nearly went crazy trying to find out "who" the band was and the name of the song. The station played Classical music during the day and at midnight on the dot, they'd play uninterrupted rock. They'd tell you the band and album name, but played it non-stop (no ads or pauses), so if you were a minute late, you were out of luck. They'd pause only to announce the next band/album. Common FM stations were hard to come by in 1971, which was when this was released.
You hit this one out of the park for me!
Your next songs by The Who should definitely be "Won't Get Fooled Again"---probably their best known song; "Love Reign O'er Me", featuring one of the top vocal performances in rock history; and "The Real Me", featuring one of the great bass performances in rock history.
My favorite band. Innovators. Pete Townsend is the genius behind the songs, but all members are incredible musicians in their own right. Deep, Deep catalogue!
HUGE catalogue,and I couldn’t recommend just one to him,there are so many.
@@TheCornishCockney Ha! That was my problem too, you’ll notice I just said deep catalogue.
Their entire "Who's Next" album is amazing! You will love every track from that album.
I bought "Who's Next" at a Singer sewing store when taking sewing classes. Had been a long time Who fan, used to get their albums the released in the UK from an importer I found in Rolling Stone. I'm 74 now, still a Who fan. "BABA" is one of the great songs of the 1970's....what a time!!
Back in the day when music was actually good and played by talented musicians and singers.
Another great reaction. "Baba O'Riley" was the first song on the Album "Who's Next", and "Won't Get Fooled Again" was the album's last song. Both songs have the "new" sound of synthesizer keyboard, where "O'Riley" is the more hopeful song, and "Fooled Again" the more super-intense. Every song inbetween was great too, one of the few rock albums that's literally a "greatest hits" album because all the songs were so great. The Who is my favorite Band by far.
It’s The Who. Nothing else to say. Not only one of their best but, one of the best over all.
Dude. You are hilarious. The Who rock. So fun watching you learn about the 70s and 80s
Wow…. Brings back memories of when I was in high school in the late 70’s across the street there was this secluded spot with graffiti of bands painted on the10ft. high 60ft. long wall and ground. Zeppelin,Rush, The Who UFO,AC/DC etc. and in big colorful letters on top of the wall “Teenage Wasteland” back in those days smoking was permitted at school. Lol and many other types of smoke !!! Before school, lunch break, after school alway 50- 70 kids out with Boom box cranking this song 🔥❤️🤘🏼🎸🤗
this is my favorite The Who song! such a timeless banger! ❤
This song has been used for tons of movies and TV shows. It was used for opening credits for one of the CSI shows.
The arrangement is by Pete, and he is a genius at arranging. Wait till you hear Love Reign O'er Me.
THE WHO IN WOODSTOCK IS A GREAT PERFORMANCE!!!!👍👍👍👍
Growing up I heard this song on the radio at least twice a week for 20 years. Loved it every time.
PS: Other essential songs from this album ("Who's Next"): the closing song from this album, "Won't Get Fooled Again", the NEXT song on this album, "Bargain", and the last song on side 1, the gorgeous "The Song Is Over". By the way, the album cover (both sides) is pretty iconic as well. It's an album EVERYBODY had, even non-Who fans.
ABSOLUTELY AMAZINGLY crafted song. Everything is perfect. I still have my Who's Next album.
Unquestionably, one of my ALL time favourite songs.
High school, standing outside, waiting for the doors to open, this song playing from some kids boom box...teacher yelling at him to turn it down!
Us kids screaming " We're all wasted"! Then everything turns to laughter...
One of those songs that makes you feel alive!
Every song on Who’s Next is incredible! You should react to the whole album. The rock operas Tommy and Quadrophenia are amazing as well! One of my favorite bands of all time and the reason I took up playing the drums over 40 years ago. They were a big influence on Geddy Lee and Neil Peart.
Now you need to hear WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN
WHO ARE YOU
MAGIC BUS
THE WHOLE ROCK OPERA "TOMMY "
THE OCEAN
ROUGH BOYS and SO many more great songs from their cataloge!❤😊
You’ll keep hearing snippets of this song in many commercials, sporting events and as the intro to one tv series(CSI New York).
I'm so very fortunate to have been born in 1960, 60s and 70s was the soundtrack of my youth...brother, you ain't heard nothin yet!
Some other Who recomendations. The live 1977 "Babo O'Riley" is quite good too, with drummer Keith Moon sadly at death's door. To see Moon at his prime, see the live "A Quick One While He's Away", a zany song, but you will never see drumming like this again. (Trust me). For a great studio recording, listen to "Can You See The Real Me", with the best rock Bass you may ever hear, along more the insane drumming. And everything live from the "Isle of Wight Concert" is great too.
One of my all-time favorite Rock bands!!! Love me some Who! Also just check out "See Me" by them and "Behind Blue Eyes!" Peter Townsend is the producer/Songwriter/Guitarists in many of their songs!!!! He is just Legendary.
And he also sings on this track 👍
the Who are the best rock bands ever .The Marshall stack was invented by them and they held the record as the loudest iive band for decades Ive seen them 4 times I worked as a stagehnd for over 30 years from the early 70s until the2000s and have worked and seen hundreds of conerts and to this day the Whos 10th anniversary concert at MSG was the best ever Pete does most of the wrtting and arranging thats him on synth throughout the song When you see them iive its on tape Whos Next is 1 of the best albums ever Seeing the Who live takes it to another level
This whole album is a classic. Listen to it all the way through.
This is another that you need to watch a live version, the older the better to hear Roger on the harmonica. A lot of the newer versions they would bring out a violin player
1978 live version from Shepperton
One of the greatest albums of all time with so many epic songs and no fillers by one of my absolute favorite groups. Hall of Fame material. I saw them just before covid and was totally blown away. Rock n roll royalty.
Just getting to know the Who. Boy, do you have a treat ahead of you.
