A Legal Matterheatherrae said:
"'Legal Matter' is about a guy on the run from a chick about to pin him down for breach of promise," wrote Townshend. "What this song was screaming from behind lines like, 'It's a legal matter baby, marrying's no fun, it's a legal matter baby, you got me on the run,' was 'I'm lonely, I'm hungry, and the bed needs making.' I wanted a maid I suppose. It's terrible feeling like an eligible bachelor but with no women seeming to agree with you." Originally released on the first Who album My Generation and subsequently in the UK on March 7, 1966 to compete against The Who's single "Substitute" (which was their contract-breaking release), it peaked at #32. In the U.S., in addition to the debut album, it appeared as the b-side of "The Kids Are Alright

I Can't Explainspongebob said:
"It can't be beat for straightforward Kink copying," wrote Townshend. "There is little to say about how I wrote this. It came out of the top of my head when I was 18 and a half. It seems to be about the frustrations of a young person who is so incoherent and uneducated that he can't state his case to the bourgeois intellectual blah blah blah. Or, of course, it might be about drugs. Its always about the drugs." The song was released in the UK as Brunswick 05926 on January 15, 1965, and after an initial dip eventually reaching #8. It was released in the U.S. as Decca 31725 on February 13, 1965 where it reached #97 on the Billboard charts.

The Kids Are Alrightc00per said:She is very bouncy, bouncy.
"'The Kids Are Alright' wasn't a single in England; it was in the States," wrote Townshend. "Funnily enough, this broke really well in Detroit, an area where both Decca Records and the local community were a little more hip to The Who than they were elsewhere. Detroit, or at least Ann Arbor, was the first place in the States we played after New York." Meaty Beaty Big and Bouncy features a truncated version of "The Kids Are Alright" edited by Shel Talmy for the U.S. market. Released in the U.S. on October 14, 1965, this edited version was later released as a single in the UK on August 12, 1966 to compete against "I'm A Boy," another Who release issued by the Reaction label. At the time, a lawsuit was raging between The Who and their ex-producer Shel Talmy. The UK single reached #41, but it failed to reach the Billboard charts in the U.S. despite another release in July of 1966.

Pinball Wizardneedtogetas said:
"'Pinball Wizard' is, quite simply, quite pimply, from Tommy," wrote Townshend. "It's my favorite song on the album and was actually written as a ploy to get Nik Cohn, who is an avid pinball player to be a little more receptive to my plans for a Rock Opera. Nik writes on and off for the New York Times. I know which side my Aronowitz is buttered, mate!" Released in the UK as Track 604027 on March 7, 1969, ahead of Tommy's release, it reached #4 on the charts. The U.S. issue, Decca 732465, came out March 22, 1969 and peaked at #19 in Billboard. "Pinball Wizard" was also The Who's first single issued in stereo.

Anyway, Anyhow, Anywherehabitualhealth said:
"Roger (Daltrey) helped a lot with the final arrangement and got half the credit," wrote Townshend. "Something he does today for nothing, bless him. I was lying on my mattress on the floor listening to a Charlie Parker record when I thought up the title. (It's usually title first with me.) I just felt the guy was so free when he was playing. He was a soul without a body, riding, flying, on music. Listening to the compulsory Dizzy Gillespie solo after one by Bird was always a come-down, however clever Gillespie was. No one could follow Bird. Hendrix must have been his reincarnation, especially for guitar players. The freedom suggested by the title came restricted by the aggression of our tightly-defined image when I came to write the words. In fact, Roger was really a hard nut then, and he changes quite a few words himself to toughen the song up to suit his temperament. It is the most excitingly pig-headed of our songs. It's blatant, proud and, dare I say it, sassy." Released as Brunswick 05935 in the UK May 21, 1965, "Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere" peaked at #10. Released in the U.S. as Decca 31801 June 5, 1965, it failed to chart.

My GenerationNobledude said:
"The hymn. The patriotic song they sing at Who football matches," wrote Townshend. "I could say a lot about this. I suppose I should say what hasn't been said, but a lot of what has been said is so hilarious. I wrote it as a throwaway naturally. It was a talking blues thing of the 'Talking New York' ilk. I had written the lines of 'My Generation' without thinking, hurrying them, scribbling on a piece of paper in the back of a car. For years, I've had to live by them, waiting for the day someone says, 'I thought you hoped you'd die before you got old. Well, you are old. What now?' Of course most people are too polite to say that sort of thing to a dying pop star. I say it often to myself." Released as Brunswick 05944 on October 29, 1965, it reached #2 on the British charts. It charted there again in 1988 (#68) and 1996 (#31). Released in the U.S. as Decca 31877 on November 20, 1965, it reached #74 on the Billboard charts.

[edit] Substitutestilleto said:
"'Substitute' was written as a spoof of '19th Nervous Breakdown'," wrote Townshend. "On the demo I sang with an affected Jagger-like accent which Kit obviously liked, as he suggested the song as a follow-up to 'Generation.' The stock, down-beat riff used in the verses I pinched from a record played to me in 'Blind Date,' a feature in Melody Maker (the song was 'Where Is My Girl' by Robb Storme and the Whispers). It was by a group who later wrote to thank me for saying nice things about their record in the feature. The article is set up so that pop stars hear other people's records without knowing who they are by. They say terrible things about their best mates' latest and it all makes the pop scene even snottier and more competitive. Great. The record I said nice things about wasn't a hit, despite an electrifying riff. I pinched it, we did it, you bought it." Released as Reaction 591001 on March 4, 1966, "Substitute" was soon withdrawn when producer Shel Talmy threatened an injunction; Talmy had produced the b-side "Circles" and did not want it released by The Who. The single was reissued a week later with the b-side retitled as "Instant Party" as a tribute to the same-named 1962 album by The Everly Brothers. However, Talmy's injunction still held, so this new pressing was also withdrawn. "Substitute" was eventually re-issued with the b-side "Waltz For A Pig," which was actually recorded by another artist.
'Substitute' eventually peaked at #5 in the UK while in the U.S. it was issued as Atco 45-6409 on April 2, 1966 in an edited version, one that replaced the line, "I look all white but my dad was black" with "I try going forward but my feet walk back." (This alternate was also issued by Polydor in South Africa.) The single did not chart in the U.S., nor did it chart when it was re-released by Atco as 45-6509 in August of 1967. Years later, it was re-released in the UK on October 7, 1976 where, a decade after its original release, it went to #7.
