"Won't Become Fooled Again" is a song by the English stone band the Who, written by Pete Townshend. It was released every bit a single in June 1971, reaching the pinnacle 10 in the UK, while the total eight-and-a-one-half-infinitesimal version appears as the last track on the band'due south 1971 album Who's Next, released that Baronial.

Townshend wrote the song as a closing number of the Lifehouse projection, and the lyrics criticise revolution and power. To symbolise the spiritual connection he had found in music via the works of Meher Baba and Inayat Khan, he programmed a mixture of human traits into a synthesizer and used it every bit the main bankroll instrument throughout the song. The Who tried recording the song in New York in March 1971, but re-recorded a superior take at Stargroves the next month using the synthesizer from Townshend'due south original demo. Ultimately, Lifehouse every bit a projection was abandoned in favour of Who'due south Next, a straightforward album, where it too became the closing rail. It has been performed every bit a staple of the band's setlist since 1971, often equally the ready closer, and was the last song drummer Keith Moon played live with the ring.

As well as being a hit, the song has achieved critical praise, appearing as one of Rolling Stone 's The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. It has been covered by several artists, such every bit Van Halen, who took their version to No. 1 on the Billboard Album Rock Tracks chart. It has been used for several Television shows and films (most notably CSI: Miami), and in some political campaigns.

Background [edit]

The vocal was originally intended for a rock opera Townshend had been working on, Lifehouse, which was a multi-media exercise based on his followings of the Indian religious avatar Meher Baba, showing how spiritual enlightenment could be obtained via a combination of ring and audience.[3] The song was written for the end of the opera, after the primary character, Bobby, is killed and the "universal chord" is sounded. The primary characters disappear, leaving behind the government and army, who are left to bully each other.[iv] Townshend described the song as one "that screams defiance at those who feel whatsoever cause is better than no crusade".[5] He later said that the song was not strictly anti-revolution despite the lyric "Nosotros'll be fighting in the streets", but stressed that revolution could be unpredictable, adding, "Don't expect to run across what you expect to see. Expect zilch and y'all might proceeds everything."[6] Bassist John Entwistle later said that the vocal showed Townshend "saying things that actually mattered to him, and maxim them for the offset time."[vii]

Townshend had been reading Universal Sufism founder Inayat Khan's The Mysticism of Sound and Music, which referred to spiritual harmony and the universal chord, which would restore harmony to humanity when sounded. Townshend realised that the newly emerging synthesizers would allow him to communicate these ideas to a mass audience.[8] He had met the BBC Radiophonic Workshop which gave him ideas for capturing human being personality within music. Townshend interviewed several people with general practitioner-style questions, and captured their heartbeat, brainwaves and astrological charts, converting the consequence into a series of audio pulses. For the demo of "Won't Get Fooled Over again", he linked a Lowrey organ into an EMS VCS three filter that played dorsum the pulse-coded modulations from his experiments.[8] He afterward upgraded to an ARP 2500.[nine] The synthesizer did not play any sounds directly equally it was monophonic; instead it modified the block chords on the organ equally an input signal.[10] The demo, recorded at a slower tempo than the version by the Who, was completed by Townshend overdubbing drums, bass, electrical guitar, vocals and handclaps.[xi]

Recording [edit]

The Who'southward first attempt to record the song was at the Record Plant on W 44 Street, New York Urban center, on 16 March 1971. Managing director Kit Lambert had recommended the studio to the group, which led to his producer credit, though the de facto work was done past Felix Pappalardi. This take featured Pappalardi's Mount bandmate, Leslie Due west, on lead guitar.[12]

Lambert proved to exist unable to mix the track, and a fresh attempt at recording was made at the start of April at Mick Jagger's firm, Stargroves, using the Rolling Stones Mobile Studio.[thirteen] Glyn Johns was invited to aid with production, and he decided to re-use the synthesized organ track from Townshend's original demo, equally the re-recording of the part in New York was felt to be inferior to the original. Keith Moon had to carefully synchronise his drum playing with the synthesizer, while Townshend and Entwistle played electric guitar and bass.[14]

Townshend played a 1959 Gretsch 6120 Chet Atkins hollow torso guitar fed through an Edwards volume pedal to a Fender Bandmaster amp, all of which he had been given past Joe Walsh while in New York. This combination became his main electric guitar recording setup for subsequent albums.[15] Although intended as a demo recording, the end result sounded and then skilful to the band and Johns, they decided to use it as the final take.[14] Overdubs, including an acoustic guitar part played by Townshend, were recorded at Olympic Studios at the end of April.[13] [14] The track was mixed at Island Studios past Johns on 28 May.[13] Afterward Lifehouse was abandoned as a project, Johns felt "Won't Get Fooled Over again", along with other songs, were so good that they could just be released as a standalone single album, which became Who's Next.[16] This song is written in the central of A Mixolydian.[17]

Release [edit]

"Won't Go Fooled Again" was first released in the UK every bit a single A-side on 25 June 1971, edited down to 3:35. It replaced "Behind Blueish Optics", which the group felt didn't fit the Who's established musical style, equally the choice of single. It was released in July in the US. The B-side, "I Don't Even Know Myself" was recorded at Eel Pie Studios in 1970 for a planned EP that was never released. The unmarried reached No. 9 in the U.k. charts and No. xv in the U.s.a.. Initial publicity material showed an abandoned comprehend of Who's Side by side featuring Moon dressed in drag and brandishing a whip. [18]

The full-length version of the song appeared every bit the closing rails of Who'due south Adjacent, released in August in the US and 27 August in the UK, where it topped the album charts.[19] "Won't Get Fooled Again" drew stiff praise from critics, who were impressed that a synthesizer had managed to be integrated so successfully inside a rock song.[20] Who author Dave Marsh described singer Roger Daltrey's scream well-nigh the end of the track as "the greatest scream of a career filled with screams".[21] Cash Box said of it that the song has "rousing magic with the Who's trademark instrumental and vocal strength" and that "revolutionary lyric matched by the group's performance fervor make this a monster on its way."[22] In 2021, the song was ranked number 295 on Rolling Stone 's The 500 Greatest Songs of All Fourth dimension.[23] As of March 2018 it was certified Silver for 200,000 sold copies in the Great britain.[24]

The Who first performed the song alive at the opening date of a series of Lifehouse-related concerts in the Immature Vic theatre, London on 14 February 1971. It has subsequently been part of every Who concert since,[25] [26] often as the set closer and sometimes extended slightly to let Townshend to smash his guitar or Moon to kicking over his drumkit. The group performed live over the synthesizer part being played on a backing tape, which required Moon to wear headphones to hear a click track, allowing him to play in sync. It was the last track Moon played live in front of a paying audition on 21 Oct 1976[27] and the last song he always played with the Who at Shepperton Studios on 25 May 1978, which was captured on the documentary pic The Kids Are Alright.[28] The song was part of the Who's set at Live Aid in 1985, Alive 8 in 2005, T4 on the Beach in 2008 and Upper-case letter FM's Summer Ball concert in 2009, 2010 and 2015 and the radio station's Jingle Bell Brawl concerts in 2009 and 2015.[29]

In October 2001, The Who performed the vocal at The Concert for New York City to help raise funds for the families of firemen and police officers killed during the 9/11 attacks. They finished their set with 'Won't Get Fooled Over again' to a responsive and emotional audition, with close-upwards aeriform video footage of the World Merchandise Center buildings playing behind them on a huge digital screen. In February 2010, the grouping closed their set during the halftime show of Super Bowl XLIV with this song.[30] While the Who have connected to play the vocal live, Townshend has expressed mixed feelings for information technology, alternating between pride and embarrassment in interviews.[31] Who biographer John Atkins described the runway as "the quintessential Who's Next track but non necessarily the best."[32]

Several live and alternative versions of the song take been released on CD or DVD. In 2003, a deluxe version of Who's Adjacent was reissued to include the Record Plant recording of the track from March 1971 and a live version recorded at the Young Vic on 26 April 1971.[33] The song is too included on the anthology Live at the Regal Albert Hall, from a 2000 show with Noel Gallagher guesting.
