       The Who are an English rock band formed in London in 1964. Their classic lineup consisted of lead singer Roger Daltrey, guitarist and singer Pete Townshend, bass guitarist and singer John Entwistle, and drummer Keith Moon. They are considered one of the most influential rock bands of the 20th century, and have sold over 100 million records worldwide. Their contributions to rock music include the development of the Marshall Stack, large PA systems, the use of the synthesizer, Entwistle and Moon's influential playing styles, Townshend's feedback and power chord guitar technique, and the development of the rock opera. They are cited as an influence by many hard rock, punk rock and mod bands, and their songs are still regularly played. The Who were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990.
     The Who developed from an earlier group, the Detours, and established themselves as part of the pop art and mod movements, featuring auto-destructive art by destroying guitars and drums on stage. Their first single as the Who, "I Can't Explain" (1965), reached the UK top ten, and was followed by a string of hit singles including "My Generation" (1965), "Substitute" (1966) and "Happy Jack" (1966). In 1967, they performed at the Monterey Pop Festival and released "I Can See for Miles", their only US top ten single. The group's 1969 concept album Tommy included the single "Pinball Wizard" and was a critical and commercial success.
        Further festival appearances at Woodstock and the Isle of Wight, along with the concert album Live at Leeds(1970), established their reputation as a respected rock act. The success put pressure on lead songwriter Townshend, and the follow-up to Tommy, Lifehouse, was abandoned. Songs from the project made up Who's Next(1971), including the hits "Won't Get Fooled Again", "Baba O'Riley", and "Behind Blue Eyes". The group released another concept album, Quadrophenia(1973), as a celebration of their mod roots, and oversaw the film adaptation of Tommy(1975). They continued to tour to large audiences before semi-retiring from live performances at the end of 1976. The release of Who Are You(1978) was overshadowed by Moon's death shortly after.
      Who(sometimes stylised as WHO) is the twelfth studio album by the English rock band the Who, released on 6 December 2019. The band's first new studio album in thirteen years, and the second overall comprising the duo of vocalist Roger Daltrey and instrumentalist Pete Townshend, it comprises ballads, rock music, electronic experimentation and "classic Who-ish" songs, according to Townshend.
      Promoted by three singles, including the lead single "Ball and Chain", WHO was a commercial success, reaching number three on the UK Albums Chart and number two on the American Billboard 200. The album was also positively received by music critics. The Who supported the album with their Moving On! Tour.
Yours is yours
What's mine is mine
What's yours is yours, and what's mine is mine
What's yours is yours, and what's mine is mine
 
I don't care
I know you're gonna hate this song
And that's fair
We never really got along
It's not new, not diverse
It won't light up your parade
It's just simple verse
 
All this music will fade
Just like the edge of a blade
All this music will fade
Just like the edge of a blade
 
I'm long gone
And I ain't never coming back
What's wrong?
I've never really quite gone bland
I'm not blue, I'm not pink
I'm just grey, I'm afraid
And it seems in a blink
 
All this music will fade
(All this music will fade)
Just like the edge of a blade
(Just like the edge of a blade)
All this music will fade
(All this music will fade)
Just like the edge of a blade
(Just like the edge of a blade)
 
What's yours is yours, and what's mine is mine
What's mine is yours, and what's yours is mine
What's mine is yours, and what's yours is mine
What's yours is yours, and what's mine is mine
 
I don't mind
Other guys ripping off my song
I'd be a liar
If I said I never done no wrong
Oh, this sound that we share
Has already been played
And it hangs in the air
 
All this music will fade
(All this music will fade)
Just like the edge of a blade
(Just like the edge of a blade)
All this music will fade
(All this music will fade)
Just like the edge of a blade
 
I don't care
I know you're gonna hate this song
That's fair
 
'Cause we never really got along
It's not new, not diverse
It won't light up your parade
It's just simple verse
 
All this music will fade
Just like the edge of a blade
All this music will fade
Just like the edge of a blade
All this music will fade
 
What's yours is yours, and what's mine is mine
What's mine is yours, and what's yours is mine
What's mine is yours, and what's yours is mine
What's yours is yours
 
Yours is yours, and what's mine is mine
And what's mine is mine, and what's mine is yours
Who gives a fuck?
