| | Eminence Front Lyrics Artist(Band):The Who
written by Pete Townshend The sun shines People forget The spray flies as the speedboat glides People forget Forget they're hiding The girls smile People forget The snow packs as the skier tracks People forget Forget they're hiding. Behind an eminence front Eminence front - It's a put-on. It’s an eminence front It’s an eminence front – It’s a put-on An eminence front Eminence front - put-on Eminence front It’s an eminence front I’ts an eminence front – It’s a put-on It’s a put-on It’s a put-on It’s a put-on Come and join the party Dress to kill Won't you come and join the party Dress to kill Dress to kill. The drinks flow People forget That big wheel spins, the hair thins People forget Forget they're hiding The news slows People forget The shares crash, hopes are dashed People forget Forget they're hiding. Behind an eminence front An eminence front - it's a put-on It is an eminence front Eminence front – It’s a put-on An eminence front An eminence front - put-on Eminence front It’s an eminence front - it's a put-on It’s a put-on It’s a put-on It’s a put-on Come and join the party Dress to Come and join the party Dress to Come on join the party Dress to Come and join the party Dress to kill Dress yourself to kill.

Review about Eminence Front stuck | Reviewer: sara | 6/14/09 The dog is barking at the back door, I forget. I block it out. The lyrics remind us that we forget the important simple things in life. We cover the pain of striving to get ahead and take the most precious things for granted. We forget, until our soul calls out and reminds us that it's a put on. Will it be too late before we realize the truth or do we leave this earth without caring? Wow... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/28/09 I can't believe the comments. This song is horrible. You are all delusional, and cannot let go of the fact that at this point, the Who hadn't been good for years. And who can forget the wonderful voice of Townshend, who sounds like a cat that has been stepped on in just the very first line of this song. It's like Stones fans who think that Waiting For a Friend is some sort of classic. Haunting | Reviewer: Dan | 1/29/09 Knew the song for a long time, always humming along. Never really knew the name or the words. As a speaker of english as a second language I just now bothered to look up the lyrics - and I had to look some words up in the dictionary. I find the lyrics concise, meaning sharp, to the point, and accurate in depicting an ongoing theme in social behaviour that seems evident around the globe and across all groups of civilization. Besides, it's a wicked catchy tune, too. In short, I agree with Mark Who isn't two-faced nowadays? I can already see it in our children... Great song | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/14/09 This song is about the fleeting (arguably false) sense of power, superiority and sophistication that comes with a lifestyle fueled by disposable income to spend on nights partying in expensive clothing while drinking and using cocaine excessively. Townshend best rock composer. | Reviewer: Dave | 11/20/08 My favorite Who song of that era... I always think of Keith Moon. "join the party, dress to kill" [because many kill (usually themselves) in our party?] People forget they're hiding...from death. the greatness of the who | Reviewer: ted | 9/16/08 pete townsend writes great stuff for the rock and roll song; its small window of artistic expression. this song is attractive in many ways. celebratory yet incisively critical of human pretension. pete doesn't preach. he observes, then reviews with enough space to let us in for our own interpretation. pretty nice ...right? the boys harmonize as well as anybody. usually underrated on this score. for me theres just one thing in the end...your guitar and your pen! Great song | Reviewer: Mike | 8/12/08 Great song. To me, the song is talking about how people hide their problems and lives behind whatever they can. It's a song about escape. It actually depressed me the first time I heard it, and it still does. There's something dark to it..... Wikipedia ripoff | Reviewer: Loren | 5/21/08 Dan's post is a ripoff from the previously entered article about this song from Wikipedia. I love how he says "in my eyes". True, to a point, since he viewed the Wikipedia article in order to copy it. What its about. | Reviewer: Dan | 3/7/08 This song has a lot do to with how life was in the 80's, and about its hedonistic lifestyle, basically a very prophetic song in my eyes, considering it was written in 1981. It's lyrics are about people going to parties and forgetting what problems you have, instead, hiding behind a facade, or in this case - and Eminence Front. Take it from Townshend: " This song is about what happens when you take too much white powder ". This was the introduction to the song at each live performance. eminence front | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/3/08 just reading it it sounds like the eminence front is how we mislead ourselves and others about our greatness or dominance. the lyrics go from talking about the way we present ourselves as individuals, like being dressed to kill, and also the lines about stocks sound like hes expanding that idea to the way we do business, always trading favorably, if not exploitatively. like hes saying western culture is full of fronts and put-ons and when its rubbed in our face by big events like stocks crashing or the aging of our bodies, we just forget and move on. maybe thats just my spin. if he said he wrote it on acid then im kinda impressed.
