Review about Pete Townshend
Classic | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Slit Skirts performed by Pete Townshend
If anyone has ever been through a breakup of a long relationship and the awkward period afterwards, you can relate to this song.
Some really visual references in the song. Running into your ex and avoiding "catching each other's eyes". Fearing relationships: "No one respects the flame quite like the fool who's badly burned". Growing old alone: "Can't pretend that growing older never hurts."
The song goes on to show the main character (Pete?) in a go-nowhere relationship with a woman who is constantly comparing him to her former lover... never as good... always disappointing: "A silent voice in her broken heart complaining that I'm unskilled."
I always liked this song but it took on a whole new meaning when I was in a similar position, maybe 7 years ago. Now it is one of my all-time favorite songs. It really captures the pain and fear from a time when we are most vulnerable.
Great Song | Reviewer: Who Fan
------ About the song Hiding Out performed by Pete Townshend
Look deep into what the words mean. I think there is a little bit of everyone in this song. Safe, secure and hiding from the truth.
Nice Job, Pete.
What more can you ask for | Reviewer: David
------ About the song A Little Is Enough performed by Pete Townshend
Well, this song begins in layers. It ends with a unique coda.
Brilliantly composed adn methodical throughout.
But then again it is Pete, just after Keith died.
