The Reviews about Won't Get Fooled Again (page 4/ 6)
------ performed by The Who

Plus ca change | Reviewer: Ken | 9/12/2007

This song works on many levels. Ir rocks, no question. The key point is though that, despite our aspirations,not much ever changes. Message: STOP FALLING FOR THE CRAP THEY PEDDLE!! You have nothimg to lose but your chains - NOW, WHO SAID THAT?

Who's the fool? | Reviewer: O'Reilly | 9/11/2007

Sorry, but this song is definitely NOT about Vietnam. It is about post-Woodstock disillusionment. Townshend is feeling that he was fooled by the "revolutionaries" not the "establishment." He's saying that despite the "revolution" of the '60s, "nothing in the street looks any different to me." He's since recanted from the extreme cynicism of the song, but, hey, when you describe exactly what you feel at a particular point in time, it's not surprising if your view shifts a little over time.

Today's Past | Reviewer: Lipe Paíga | 7/17/2007

"rock anthem" Mr. csuchmann said.
That's it. The Who is the band of my music anthem with "Teenage Wasteland" and "Won't Get Fooled Again".
I have any other anthems, but "Won't Get Fooled Again" lives in my heart.
This song talks about Vietnan, but it's actuall.
Iraq are our present and Vietnam our past.
Think about it!!

Peace

An oldie, but a goodie | Reviewer: Tyler | 7/9/2007

Although most of today's generation are into the new stuff, there's a number of us who like the greatest classics. This is one of those. The song makes me want to yell and pick up my own guitar. Love it.

lyric mistake | Reviewer: Mitch | 6/11/2007

Great song, brilliant lyrics, but I think there's a mistake on the page...

"And the parting on the left
Is now the parting on the right"

I think it's actually "Party" (like political party) not "Parting". Meh, I could be wrong though.

The anthem of the Ron Paul revolution | Reviewer: Al Dove | 6/1/2007

I always figured that if I waited long enough, one of my alltime favorites would become relevent once again. This is not only GREAT music, but also a powerful message. Go to YouTube and punch in "Ron Paul". We can make it happen. We, the People. "We don't get fool again."

The Who in Concert what a powerful memory | Reviewer: Andy of HoboTraveler.com | 6/2/2007

I am 51 years old, and I still remember Roger singing in a concert. I am here in Togo, Africa, hoping one day soon, there will be a new boss, and not the same as the old boss.

The good life is the good life, I was born in the USA, and I thank Roger for singing a song of inspiration for all the world. The USA is always vigilant and the world does not want to return a world of Kings and Queens.

Re; LOSERS anthem | Reviewer: Jehrome | 5/31/2007

I take it you don't care for it then? Oh well.

I've loved it since the day I first heard it when it was brand new.

Vietnam was still on and I was 16.

Losers my butt.

If you don't like it don't listen to it.

I do believe they did rather well with that tune though, in spite of your reaction.

The Who is classic, like them or not. ;)
