Wont Get Fooled Again Ymca Song

For My Sunday Song #101, nosotros get back to picking some of my favorite songs and no theme behind these side by side x.  Kickoff up is "Won't Become Fooled Over again" by The Who.  The vocal is off their album 'Who's Next' and was the final song on the anthology equally well as a single which wen tall the style to #fifteen on the Billboard Hot 100.  If you aren't familiar with it, you might know it as the song on the opening credits for the CBS testify CSI: Miami.

The song was written during the 'Lifehouse' projection the Who were working on.  This was some other stone opera following the success of 'Tommy'; yet, the project was later scrapped.  This song was then good that they felt it would work as a standalone song on the album that became 'Who's Next'.

The song is near a revolution and you can meet that through the lyrics.  The start of the song is of course the beginning of the uprising of the revolution.  The heart of the song has the revolution over with the new people in ability and the song ends with the new people in ability being only as bad as the previous people so they have to commencement a new revolution.  It is a stark look at the reality of regime.  You might vote someone new into office, only they are just equally bad or worse than who was previously in power.  It is a abiding struggle across the globe.

The song itself is admittedly amazing.  Information technology is over 8 minutes long or you can get the single edit which is shortened to a measly 3:36, but y'all miss the whole power behind the vocal.  The original "full" version is a stroke of genius musically.  Pete outdoes himself with both his guitar work and his work on the synthesizer which is the main focus of the song.  The synthesizer is symbolic of the revolution and you can track the progression with the impact of it during the song.

One of the best parts of the song is likewise one of the greatest screams in music history.  Roger Daltrey'southward scream towards the end of the song is so powerful.  The band were out having lunch and heard that scream and immediately thought that Roger was fighting with someone in the recording booth.  Let me tell you lot information technology is an amazing scream and not many can duplicate information technology equally convincingly equally Roger did it.  And right before that scream you lot get some brilliant drumming by Keith Moon.

Overall, it is just ane of the greatest songs ever written and performed.  Merely scenic in my book.  I could mind to this on repeat all twenty-four hour period and in fact information technology has been on echo as I wrote this.

Give it a listen and let me know what you retrieve.  I hope yous enjoy it as much every bit I do.  Thanks and have a Happy Sun!!

"Won't Go Fooled Again"

We'll be fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred united states on
Sit in judgement of all wrong
They determine and the shotgun sings the songI'll tip my chapeau to the new constitution
Have a bow for the new revolution
Smile and smiling at the change all around
Pick upwardly my guitar and play
But like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again

The modify, it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fold, that's all
And the world looks just the same
And history ain't changed
'Cause the banners, they are flown in the last war

I'll tip my chapeau to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
No, no!

I'll move myself and my family aside
If nosotros happen to be left half live
I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky
Oh I know that the hypnotized never lie
Do ya?

In that location's nothing in the streets
Looks whatever different to me
And the slogans are replaced, past the bye
And a departing on the left
Is now a parting on the right
And the beards accept all grown longer overnight

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the alter all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Merely like yesterday
Then I'll go on my knees and pray
Nosotros don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again
No, no!

Run across the new dominate
Same as the quondam dominate

Written past Pete Townsend
