Just came across this amazing clip...Wow...I've always loved "WHO BY NUMBERS" and to see Pete sing this song now (ie more recently than 1976..) it's just as brilliant as anything he's well known for writing (like "Pinball Wizard" or "Won't Get Fooled Again"). Pete Townshend is a treasure. One of the last truly great musicians, who has always had his pulse on the heartbeat of his generation. This brings nothing but joyful tears...so glad we still have Pete around! Love the man!

I hope everyone (especially the youngsters) appreciates the TRUE musical immortals that still reside among us in the year 2011. It will not be long until all of them are gone; support them in their live performances & future recorded output while you can, because their kind will NOT be seen again..... From a musical standpoint, we are ALL so fortunate to live in this time...... I feel truly blessed to have been a teenager in the 1970s and to have hung around as long as I have.....

Every time I hear this song, only one sentence comes to my mind: "God bless you Pete Townshend" Someday you will be gone Pete, but hopefully when "someday" comes, I won't remember that I even wrote this. Bye.

back for another listen...how is Who by Numbers so underrated after all these years. Only the real fans get it. So much about the Who slips under the radar because of their monstrous albums and hits. Amazing departures such as WBN get lost in the wake of the tidal waves of genius.

Love Pete. Love that song. But can't help noticing three things: 1. He's shifted the key from that of the original recording (can't hit those higher notes anymore) 2. Reading glasses (can't see anymore) 3. Has to use sheet music (can't remember how it goes...although, it IS an old song...)

Pete did an entire solo album, Who came first, as a tribute to his guru Mehar Baba and, although the album is excellent, this song conveys everything he wanted to say in that album and more, simply, and under 3 minutes.

Sorry...back for another go. The reason I love this song is it is a reflection in an ugly mirror. Pete has always had self-esteem problems and self-admittedly did everything to "get the girl". This song (and some stuff on his solo "...Chinese Eyes"' make it all ok for him, me, and hopefully, lots of you who still found a way like Pete (and Me) to be cool and accepted.
