Actually I remember the gist of it more as "what DO YOU GUYS want me to
write about...?" which sounds like Pete had much less passion to write for
the 1982 Who.

It's interesting that WF got this answer from John on AOL regarding that
part of the song:
WFang01:        You told another fan that Pete rewrote "One At A Time"???
How so?
WhoMeJohn:      John> He didn't rewrite it. He wrote the intro, not the
brass but a couple of the lines after.  He wrote a whole 3 or 4 verses for
it, but I didn't like it, so I put my words to it.
