Thread link is:

The Who's iconic anthem from 1971's Who's Next album performed here on B-Stage at Shepperton Studios on 25 May 1978 Filmed by Jeff Stein for the closing sequence of The Kids Are Alright.

Sadly this was to be the very last performance ever by Keith Moon.

HIP HOP FAN'S FIRST TIME HEARING 'The Who - Won't Get Fooled Again'

www.youtube.com

It's fun to see what the kids see in our old music.

'

In 2015 1000 Rockers performed simultaneously "Learn to Fly" by the Foo Fighters in Cesena - Italy.

The video got more than 32 million views and the Foos actually held a concert in town!

Since then we organize concerts with 1000 musicians playing together the songs that made the glorious History of Rock!

"Turn off the TV, silent your phone, go to a quiet room and use a stereo that tears down the walls.

This is our version of "Won't Get Fooled Again" by The Who, played in Milano-Linate."

These are some Election worthy lyrics... play us some others!

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 us on
Sit in judgement of all wrong
They decide and the shotgun sings the song

I'll tip my hat 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

A change, 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 all flown in the last war

I'll tip my hat 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 we happen to be left half-alive
I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky
For I know that the hypnotized never lie*********
Do you?
Yeah

There's nothing in the street
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are effaced, by-the-bye

And the parting on the left
Is now parting on the right
And the beards have 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 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
Don't get fooled again, no, no
Yeah

Meet the new boss******
Same as the old boss*****^

That's true in this election... the Est GOP LOVES Donald Trump, as they give him the rwing populist vote AND Billionaire and Corporate Tax cuts and laws that the Politician's Owners, the Oligarchs, want.

Which means that Trumpers, who say they are against the GOP Est, are ginormous doofases.

And, yeah, I politicized the thread, so sue me; it's a political forum. With some great music lovers.

Ism it a shame?

No matter who you vote for, the Government always gets in"
