Veritanuda from UkAlthough it has never been said, I had always thought the song was in reference to Hitler who also had blue eyes.Regardless, it is a heavy lyric and a great vibe! I have always thought it is the last thought (from a person of color) but have never heard anyone else express this view.
THE WHO BEHIND BLUE EYES CRACK
'When my fist clenches, crack it open' could be a wise request. Or is the lyric from a person of color saying anyone 'behind blues eyes' (white persons) can not understand the anger and frustration they must live with on a daily basis. But who is the singer angry at? Himself, perhaps. Gator Rick from Denver, CoIs this lyric ironic? It probably doesn't really matter what Pete wrote it about, a song can take on its own meaning.Ĭan it be about a white man (behind blues eyes) and his cynicism (power) or about a drug dealer or a pedophile? It seems certainly about finding empathy and understanding.Joao Pedro from Brasil Rjlimp bizkit version is better than the original.People will do the things wanted in this song if the person who is asking is worthy. Begging for the very empathy they deny anyone else. The first ones to harm others and the first ones to curl into the fetal position when they get caught. No Mercy from UsaThe song has always reminded me of the appalling amount of self pity that narcissists and child molesters covet.Behind Blue Eyes is one of many incredibly powerful and beautiful songs written by the maestro Pete Townshend. He got caught up in a sting operation and nothing was found on his computer. He has been married most of his life and raised three children. Pete is one of the most generous rock stars of all-time, raising millions for charitable organizations. Bill from MarylandSince when is Pete a child abuser?! What is wrong with some of these basement-dwelling keyboard warriors, slandering people with idiotic comments.Great chorus and an underrated bass performance. Though I don’t put The Who into the psychedelic rock genre, this song came out at the height of that period and it was possible Townsend was inspired by it. The bridge does not go with the rest of the song (musically it sounds like a completely different song), but we have seen this in some of the psychedelic rock in the late 60s. He also believes that no one suffers as much as he does. It sounds more like a persecution complex.
Who is fated to telling only lies? I can’t imagine many circumstances where this would literally be true. He claims that he is fated to telling only lies. He does not come across as a sympathetic character. One of the main themes of this song is that he does feel misunderstood. Who is The Who’s “Man Behind Blue Eyes”? And what do we know about him? He isn’t well liked-at all-but it seems there is a part of him that doesn’t understand why and wants to change that.
