The Reviews about Glow Girl (page 1/1)
------ performed by The Who


Glow Girl Shines | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/13/09

Written at a time when the Who were at the peak of their creativity, Glow Girl, as amazing as it is, was put on the Who's scrap heap and emerged on Odds & Sods. The song is short and perhaps a verse or two from being finished, but the melody is gorgeous and there are words enough to capture the scene. Townshend's guitar makes stuttering and whoop, whoop sounds that give the impression of a failing airplane. The sense of death and rebirth that the song evokes raises hair on arms.



About Glow Girl | Reviewer: Peter Maimere | 12/1/08

This song is known of its relation to Meher Baba's concept of reincarnation, but until now I don't clearly understand it. Also, Glow Girl was supposed to be a song for the Tommy rock opera. (Yes, Tommy was originally a girl.)



Glow Girl glows | Reviewer: Kelly | 7/13/05

I love this song! It is heart-breaking and makes me cry. The melody is absolutely beautiful. Pete Townshend is a genius. He wrote this song about a boyfriend and girlfriend on a plane together that is about to crash. I can't imagine the horror of knowing that you're about to die. He captures what is going on in their minds in such a heart-wrenching way. The melody is so pure, it sticks in my head.
