I still come to Tommy, and it still impresses me with its freshness and purity--and despite being a messy story. Tommy creates its own world. Nothing can alter my perception of Tommy beyond the original recording. That's where the magic resides. Listen to "See Me, Feel Me" from the orignal recording and tell me otherwise.
Oh I love Pete, not just the music, but his intelligence, creativity, insight, and desire to bring important meaning to music...he's like what Music / Rock is about...he's a wise grandfather of rock!....Something to be proud of!....and compare that with the values in music today!...Love you Pete! XOXOXO
Schubert last piano sonatas captured the imagination of the classical musicians and reinterpretations by hungarian Sir Andras Schiff and the imagery of the sad beauty. Classical music contemplative and soothes the heart and soul evocative and enthralling. Cheers Sir Peter and bandmates.
One can appreciate the music composer, arranger, conceptual artist at the helm, think in abstract fashion and dreamscape to bring their creative projects to fruition the juxtaposition violins and piano various percussionist instruments to complement their voices. Akin to the inventors of cartography the contour lines Charles Hutton and Jeffrey Ambroziak parlayed into hologram technology interactive maps. Scott Draves visual artistry and Paul Hardcastle visual imagery innovative without exception. Cheers Sir Peter and Sir Eric with utmost esteem and affection
Raised in broken homes is why i love the who & pete helped the police bigtime by showing them all the crap that children who were stolen, raped, beaten & sometimes killed right under cops noses. Thank you Pete !
One gets the distinct feeling here that he is talking well above the quality level of the story, which was not all that deep and not all that interesting, overstating its importance. The music is another story, which was well accomplished pop/rock.
Mariners expertise and history on shipbuilding windjammers and schooners brings to mind beautiful lyrical narrative poem Sea Fever poet laureate John Masefield. Jeffersons bourbon aged at sea in Louisville Kentucky would tout. Cheers Sir Peter a Petrus Pomerol .
Whoa! Did Pete just say Keith Moon was a "right queen," who was having sex with Oliver Reed!? This video is 12 years old and this the first time I've heard anything about this.
Pete is brilliant but the film isn't crap, it's pretty brilliant and original as a rock opera brought to screen. It's just an acquired taste for Who fans with that outrageous twist of humour (I didn't like it at first when I was so used to the album). It's ingenious though and always surprising.
sorry, but as much as i try to like Townsend i can respect his song writing i guess but if it wasnt Rogers vocals on those songs i would never listen to the Who. Petes solo stuff i cant even begin to listen to.
go... now... listen to his album 'Empty Glass'... listen to 'I am an animal'... or Jools and Jim.... LISTEN TO THE WORDS... and you will find his voice fits the emotion.
Wow, really? That's so interesting how different people respond to vocals!! When I hear Pete sing "Goin' Mobile" or even his harmonies in Who songs, gosh even the way he sings: "How do you think he does it?" in Pinball Wizard...and if you listen to Pete's demo of "Love Reign O'er Me" I'd love to know what you think of that one in particular. Cheers.
Remember when there was great effort and great genius behind great music? 2020, your destiny is calling

We tried not to age, but time had its rage. -Pete Townshend
Never knew Pete's childhood was so messed up. There's your source of his rage. I was verbally abused, and that was bad enough. Stirs the anger.
Pete has always done so many interviews. He always wanted to see what he was going to say next.
RIP, Ken Russell.🙌
I love you Pete Townshend 😎💕👌✌️

@fredherrman txs to you!
. . . hearing Linn Berggren (Ace of Base) singing "All That She Wants" over this.
Raised in broken homes is why i love the who & pete helped the police bigtime by showing them all the crap that children who were stolen, raped, beaten & sometimes killed right under cops noses. Thank you Pete !
9:50 which section is he on about, love reign oer me?
Rick Jones The Rock!
that bit at the end was...a bit...cruel
@bensimps123 but the sea refuses no river....
right now this banks are blown
What are you trying to say?

it does not come to an end but cuts off on a sour note
It continues in Part 2 .
You serious?

Keith and Oliver party weirdos
Whoa! Did Pete just say Keith Moon was a "right queen," who was having sex with Oliver Reed!? This video is 12 years old and this the first time I've heard anything about this.
He was joking.
@@silversnail1413 He seemed to be speaking as if it was factual, not a joke. But I watched the section again, and I see what you mean.
Pete, always a highly intelligent, creative man. Tommy the film was total crap. The Who didn’t have any part in that film, that is why, I hate it.
Pete is brilliant but the film isn't crap, it's pretty brilliant and original as a rock opera brought to screen. It's just an acquired taste for Who fans with that outrageous twist of humour (I didn't like it at first when I was so used to the album). It's ingenious though and always surprising.
Its OK skippy. Put knees to chin and breath deeply. Mommy's down the hall
Fine jackass piss off then
Arsehole
Tommy is what it is. Without Tommy I don't think there would ever have been a Mad Max and I enjoy them both.
The story is incoherent, and the film is even worse--a crappy Ken Russell film. Also, Daltrey just doesn't work as the lead.
sorry, but as much as i try to like Townsend i can respect his song writing i guess but if it wasnt Rogers vocals on those songs i would never listen to the Who. Petes solo stuff i cant even begin to listen to.
I love Pete, But when Roger sings those songs its wonderful. I am not a fan of Pete's solo work.
go... now... listen to his album 'Empty Glass'... listen to 'I am an animal'... or Jools and Jim....
LISTEN TO THE WORDS... and you will find his voice fits the emotion.

I'd rather listen to Pete's solo stuff than Roger's or John's. Neither of them could write a decent song
No, for me Daltrey ruins a lot of Townshed songs.
