One has never said a truer thing. The subtleties in the songs make them extremely difficult. Let's put it this way. My band, Who are They (little plug), plays a number of non-Who covers, including ACDC, Eagles, Zeppelin, Ozzy, Kinks, Clapton. I am naturally much more familiar with the Who songs, yet I have BY FAR the most trouble singing them properly. DAMN THAT PETE TOWNSHEND! I have no trouble whatsoever singing the other songs almost flawlessly (aside from botching lyrics). I think this is a real testament to Roger, that Pete knew he could make these difficult vocal changes and wide ranging notes because Roger could knock them all out of the park.
