Add Your New Review About The Song The Reviews about Amazing Journey (page 1/1) ------ performed by The Who What an Amazing Journey! | Reviewer: Peter Maimere | 12/1/2008 This song was originally a poem written by Peter Townshend, and is considered the essence of Tommy's story, thus being one of the first songs of the album. It features some ideas from Pete's learning from Meher Baba. Tommy is dumb, deaf and blind, so his "musical dreams" (verse 3) are really made of touching sensations (verse 22), e.g., the bullying from his cousin or the fiddling of his uncle, shown later in the Opera. All these sensations builds Tommy's spiritual growth. One can also compare the silence of Tommy to the silence obtained by the post-war era kids, because parents and grandparents were so hurt in the war that they refused talking about it to these kids. (In fact, this was said by Peter Townshend and others on several documentaries, and I just wrote in other words.) There are other aspects of Tommy (the opera itself) that are not covered in this song, though it's still an important part of it. good | Reviewer: ruudgerusth | 9/9/2007 iiiiiiiiii am reli fen of dis musieck sou i kan sey tat pit towshent is a good to vraitte musieck bat is good also rodger wenh he singes the musieck. the whoe i love. Amazing Journey | Reviewer: Tino | 8/8/2007 Amazing Journey is part of The Who's first rock opera "Tommy." The protagonist, Tommy, was traumatized earlier in his life and became blind, deaf and dumb. The man in this song is his subconscious, and the amazing journey is a journey to be able to interpret the world as music. The story continues in the song "Sparks."
