QuoteRokyfan It's just funny someone saying I hate to do something when if they really hated to do it they wouldn't, that's all. It was a gentle rebuke -- I have no problem with his pointing it out -- it's just funny to say I hate to when you really don't hate to, you like to. Yes, it is funny! How we use and perceive language is a trip. I don't even see it as a

QuoteRokyfan You mean he hated to be that person but someone was pointing a gun to his head forcing him to? Actually he didn't really hate it at all, he relished being the first to jump in with the rebuke. Maybe there's a language thing going on here. It's a pretty common english expression, especially on the internet ("I hate to be the guy who....., but...." ) It&

QuoteOldSoul I disagree that this or the one I posted earlier use the same vocal from the album. At the end of both, Mick says, "Do unto neighbours, what you do to your wife." He never says that on the album. Anyway... video: Thx for the extra vid! I don't hear the "wife" part on the one you posted earlier, but I do hear it here. It sounds like it was mixed in from

QuoteTurner68 What is this obsession with one more shot? It's a very mediocre song. Classic stones by numbers. Nothing new or innovative Most of the tracks on Crosseyed Heart are better Maybe because it's Keith's song interpreted by Mick.

Interesting responses. Someone here said that they're ready to turn it off, but realize that the solo is coming up, so they leave it on until the solo is over. That's me too. The song itself (to me) is plodding, no real groove, musically and vocally repetitive. Except the solo. It's not a mind-blowing solo, but interesting enough to break up the monotany.

Slightly off topic here, but a cute story nonetheless: My four year old son likes "Won't Get Fooled Again", alot. But he thinks the words are "won't get food again". I explained to him what the words are, and the short version of what they mean, and he said, "no, he says food". Oh well.

Quotemickschix Daltrey had a tremendous voice in the late 60's and 70's but apparently did not take good enough care of his voice over the years..that's a shame really. I've seen the WHO about 7 times from 1970 - 2001 and Roger's voice has certainly faded. It has, and doing that Banshee scream in "Won't get Fooled" every night doesn't help. The son

Quotekovach Well, sort of. I think he did some session work with Joe Walsh after the Eagles first split. I also think he was originally in the band Spirit who had a good following for quite a while and put out quite a few notable songs. Yes! He does the piano workout on Walsh's "Life's Been Good", it almost dominates the song at the end.
