My iPod #290: The Who - Dogs

Behold. A song that sounds like nothing The Who would ever do, made by The Who.

This is "Dogs". A single released in 1968, and recorded during a period when the group went 'slightly mad' according to Pete Townshend.

There's nothing much I can say to you that would be any different from its entry on Wikipedia. It's a very English-sounding song. That "beer" chorus reminds me of a sing-along down at a pub or something, and overall it sounds like a very dramatic theme track for two characters in a soap opera.

In comparison to everything else The Who did, "Dogs" is definitely an odd one.....
