   Thanks for this, Browder. Just wondering, was the gospel reference in the lyrics (in Behind Blue Eyes) or in that he felt the freedom to wear those pants? 🙂

   me: only "Who" knows… 😉

   … great music vids with snippets and glimpses of the "Image" in man (Daultry) struggling with his fallen state… and confessing his longing for salvation? I think yes…

   cheers…

   Andrea, "Behind Blue Eyes" is the Romans 7 picture of bondage and sublimation. The Jeremiah 17:9 picture. They are talking about what appears to be and what actually is.

   And The Who is so cool they can wear any pants and still be totally awesome.
