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", "Baba O'Riley", "Won't Get Fooled Again", "Substitute", "Happy Jack", "I Can See For Miles", "Behind Blue Eyes", "Boris The Spider", "Pictures Of Lily", "Magic Bus", "Pinball Wizard" etc.
Who are you is not a question. I am The Who and so are you. I love that communal continuity that The Who have always had. The Who cant exist without the audience and the audience cant exist without The Who. Illuminating the audience during See me, feel me. The relationship between the Punk and the Godfather in Quadrophenia. Etc etc ....
The Who are one of the great classic rock bands. Roger Daltrey is the lead vocalist and has an awesome voice. Keith Moon, the drummer, had a unique style but sadly died much too young by drinking himself to death.
I really like you because you go into it without watching it first. Just found you so i will follow you now because of what you do. Im half-black and half-white and i listen to all kinds of music but Rock is one of my favorite to play on the drums. And you might not believe me. Im 62 years old and still play drums. I was in band in school.
A serious rock band, look at the reruns of CSI Miami this is their theme song, listen to the concept recording Tommy , you will be awed they rock out!!!
You should definitely watch a documentary about Keith Moon (the drummer), or hear the band talk about him, the idea of him relaxing at all will be funny to you 😂
Seen the Who in 1982 Maximum R & B tour at Cardinal Stadium St. Louis..No opening act just them playing for close to 4 hours .Incredible live show. Still have concert tickets and shirt. Peace TSR have a great evening and better tomorrow
Cant believe you didn’t recognise their music from the CSI tv series..... the original and the first 4 spin off CSI series used 4 different WHO songs as their intro ( one song was used by 2 different series). Then there are the 2 or more Rock Opera’s they wrote, created, performed on stage and turned into movies.. lol Tommy was probably the most successful Rock Opera, and regarded as the first...... but I’m sure someone else performed a Rock Opera or at least wrote one before Tommy.
@@ThatSingerReactions HaHaHa..........the masked singer, really ? Sounds like a Millie Vanillie sanctioned show to me. lol Here in Ozz they change the voices and then expect us to believe it is real.
@SINGER The 1970’s was a decade overflowing with American & British rock bands who experimented with every kind of musical instrument and supporting equipment to push and stretch the boundaries of all their young musicianship imaginations. It was jam packed with newly acquired knowledge and skills that laid down the foundation for its continual progression into and thru the ‘ip’s & 90’s, which resulted in a 30 -year run FULL of the absolute BEST discography in young, raw talent.. instrumentally as well as lyrically and vocally. By the time digital, (leading to and by the 2000’s) Internet, voiceover/auto tune etc all were largely honing tools that over time inched their way past the honing process and moved into the creative process of song-making. This , in many music-lover’s opinions, is what spelled the end of showcasing (or growing) raw talent, on a mass scale as in the past, as well as encouraging the interest in or development of live instrument performance. A malaise hung over what used to be a live/bustling music-making art, and changed it into a mostly lackluster, very artificial industry that lost a lot of respect. Why?- Because everybody knew that anyone could have a song “created” simply from a computer app and ZERO actual voice or instrumental talent would need to exist in order to do it. Nither a band. Yes, mixing and producing talent would be needed.. but imo those aspects should make up a fractional percentage of the song - not the entirety of it. I highly encourage you to watch as many diff live performances (as opposed to “official music-videos” as you can from those decades, because without even knowing you personally OR which band you’ll choose, I can confidently tell you that you WILL be SHOCKED numerous times and you WILL be IMPRESSED as hell. How do I already know ? -Because EVERYONE is. - Because you don’t see ANYthing like that today… not even close.
Keith Moon was known as "The Octopus" drummer as no one was as wild as Keith on the Kit. The bassist John, is in a league of his own when it comes to the bass as he was originally a trumpet player so he was lightning fast playing with 3 fingers as aposed to the usual 1 or 2 or thumbing. Super entertaining to watch the skill of these 2 guys
Keith Moon the Drummer has his cans taped to his head so they do not fall off LOL Rodger Daltrey Lead singer, Pete Townsend Lead Guitar, John Entwhistle Bass Guitar
The Who have been favourites of mine since they started my sister still has part of their guitar ,,they used to smash them at the end of a gig,she has it on her keyring. The rock opera Tommy that they wrote I had 4 different versions of it ,the original the film an accustic and one with an orchestra. All phenominal. Pete Townsend was the main writer and his swinging arm guitar playing legendary.
The Who; Led Zeppelin; Grand Funk Railroad; Cream; Deep Purple; Carlos Santana and The Jimmy Hendrix Experience put forth some of the most explosive and unique rock n roll sounds ever. Id put Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, Beatles and such in another super group category and of course The Grateful Dead are in a category all their own. All of these and more offer great super group experiences forged in the fire of the 1960s. But no one rocked harder on the drums than Keith Moon and John Bonham.
There was no real music video because this was before MTV. This is as close as it gets. This was recorded in May 1978. Drummer Keith Moon died in September 1978. He was a legendary drummer and a legendary party animal. He was trying to get sober, but he died of an overdose of a sobriety drug called Heminevrin combined with alcohol...which he was obviously not supposed to be drinking while on Heminevrin.
What supposedly caused the Cincinnati tragedy was fans for outside waiting to get in and they heard the who doing their sound check and they thought the concert had started so they rushed the doors and people were crushed against the doors and stamp heated the band didn't even know what was going on
The movie Carrie came out about the same time as this song, so Tommy was like a lot of other kids around who tried to emulate the Rock god known as Roger Daltrey
How do you guys not know so much about these bands... Astounding the shut out by the music industry these last 20 years or more ...A massive field of drum maschine music beween now and then Three of them palyedlive in my city Berlin last night... I couldnot get there ,Exceedingly loud also ...
The first time I heard The Who this song was the first I heard of them. A catchy song. Did not know about the fire, that's sad...You knew some words, the catchy part...😌👍☝️🖼☝️🎇
Of course you’ve heard it, it was the theme music for the tv series CSI. That’s the clean version where Daltrey doesn’t sing the line “who the f-k are you” 😂
The drummer and the bassist are a FIRE combo!!!

Keith Moon, the drummer one of a kind drummer and a true no shit's given OG hellraiser his antics are stuff of legend
Keith Moon one of the best and craziest drummers of all time.
You see why Animal from the Muppets was modelled on Keith Moon.
The vocalist,Roger Daltry was in the smash hit movie Tommy he sang with Tina turner, it was brilliant!
And Elton John , if I remember correctly
other fun fact; he was also hired as muscle to protect the rest of the group ;)

MY FAV band and now my fav reaction vid, cheers from Aus mate
A great long time favourite. Mad drummer Kieth Moon was hard to handle apparently but one of the best drummers of his time.
Great reaction.
You may have heard it with the crime show CSI. It was their intro tune.
You probably heard this as the theme song to the original CSI TV show. Each of the spinoffs (Miami & Ny) also used Who songs.
And CSI:Cyber
I saw The Who 10 days before that infamous Cincinnati concert, in 1979!
Greatest Rock Band Ever
That's the kind of music I grew up to 🤩🤩🤩 My parents are such legends. Also CSI tv shows use The Who's songs for their intro.

Asking Keith Moon to "relax".....that's too funny......you have NO IDEA, son..... LOL 😆
Yup- CSI! All the CSI songs are by the Who! ❤

The singer had a recurring role in one of my favorite TV shows Highlander: The Series
Seen the Who in 1982 Maximum R & B tour at Cardinal Stadium St. Louis..No opening act just them playing for close to 4 hours .Incredible live show. Still have concert tickets and shirt. Peace TSR have a great evening and better tomorrow
Jealous! Your TH-cam name makes me wonder if you’ve ever seen Rush. 😂
Wad at the same show in STL - still have my "The Who in 82" flag. That was their first 'final' tour 😅
@@oldgoat9227 like the name old goat name. I have a 1969 GTO. Proud owner since 1983..May be buried in it.

The WHO - Live at Leeds is one of the best live albums ever. Side 2 has a killer medley on it.
To me and i play the drums too. Kieth Moon was and still the best drummer ❤️
Keith Moon the Drummer has his cans taped to his head so they do not fall off LOL Rodger Daltrey Lead singer, Pete Townsend Lead Guitar, John Entwhistle Bass Guitar
Jim Henson based his drummer, in the Muppets, Animal, on Keith.

I saw Tommy in London, UK with Kim Wilde -starring as Tommy's mother
@thereseelizabethries1083 UK but my illness had kicked in you are one up on me.
Classic. If you watch the old movie quadrophenia, the whole soundtrack is the who album 👌🏻 classic film also.
Yes! The first time I saw carry I was like... wait is that..? Dude definitely liked The Who at least lol

If you have ever watched any version of CSI the chorus is the theme song. Roger Daltry, the lead singer, can do it all from rock to opera.
There was no real music video because this was before MTV. This is as close as it gets.
This was recorded in May 1978. Drummer Keith Moon died in September 1978. He was a legendary drummer and a legendary party animal.
He was trying to get sober, but he died of an overdose of a sobriety drug called Heminevrin combined with alcohol...which he was obviously not supposed to be drinking while on Heminevrin.
This was at the beginning of the TV show CSI. Maybe you remember it from that.
What supposedly caused the Cincinnati tragedy was fans for outside waiting to get in and they heard the who doing their sound check and they thought the concert had started so they rushed the doors and people were crushed against the doors and stamp heated the band didn't even know what was going on
Gewd reaction bro loved it
Great tune..... thanks for this Nick
only the hair looks like William Katt from Carrie (better known for ‘the greatest American hero’)
The movie Carrie came out about the same time as this song, so Tommy was like a lot of other kids around who tried to emulate the Rock god known as Roger Daltrey
You probably recognise this song from the CSI TV show
They use that music in the show CSI.
He does look like Tommy from Carrie. He also played Tommy in the movie Tommy.😊
Except Roger’s way sexier.
Blast from my past 🇨🇦♥️🇨🇦
Great reaction! Please turn the volume down on your voice (about half) during the music as it comes in pretty loud. Thanks!
As always to really know and have proper appreciation of The Who go to Wikipedia.

Animal from the Muppets is based on Keith; that's all you need to know.
The Who. Not to be confused with The Guess Who or The Hu.
Classic
Of course you’ve heard it, it was the theme music for the tv series CSI. That’s the clean version where Daltrey doesn’t sing the line “who the f-k are you” 😂
I prefer this slightly later period of The Who over more celebrated hits like Pinball Wizard. Another favorite is you better you bet.
You’re in Cincinnati?? I’m from there, I was also at that concert
You’re too cool for school
Listen to all the song then comment.
Vi ginal
Weird ur voice came thru mono (1 ear) but the music stereo on my airpods
How to ruin a 3 minute song and turn it into a 2 hour monologue
Too much pausing.
You’re too busy for me…
I saw them in Buffalo the day after that incident in Cincinnatti.
Two things, firstly you pause too much, secondly you need to fix your mic audio as it only plays on the right side.
He has to or he’ll get copyright strikes from the publisher if he plays it straight through.
