I was originally disillusioned with it myself, and now realise it was due
to the absence of the ARP synthesizer that was so fluently, and masterfully
used on "Who->'s Next" and "Quadrophenia."
Shortly after its release I loved it's leaner appeal.
Now I consider it a masterpiece.

What?
I love this song, and, if you can find the chords to it, is great fun
to play on guitar.
I think it applies to most Who-> fans in its lyrical content, because
so many of us are so stuck upon a given phase of TheWho->'s
career (myself especially), and in relaity, we should all learn to
like "every minute of TheWho->" as Pete likes every minute of
the day.
How absurdly open minded of me.
