Behind Blue Eyes - The Who / Limp Bizkit (Flamenco Guitar)

"Behind Blue Eyes" is a song by English rock band the Who. It is the second single from the band's fifth album, Who's Next (1971)

Pete Townshend wrote the song at home. He recalled to Uncut magazine: "I went downstairs to the kitchen to get some tea and my wife said, 'That song's beautiful.' I said, 'oh dear, is it?' It's about a guy who's treacherous and lies and cheats

Pete Townshend originally wrote this song about a character in his Lifehouse project, which was going to be a film similar to The Who's Tommy and Quadrophenia. Townshend never finished Lifehouse, but the songs ended up on the album Who's Next

Townshend had originally claimed that “Behind Blue Eyes” was written as Jumbo’s theme; the villain’s song of contrition upon realizing the error of his brutal regime. “He kind of reaches an emotional crisis in his life, and he looks at himself in the mirror, and sings this song,” Townshend said. “It’s a point at which the baddies don’t seem quite so bad, they’re just lost.”
