The Who - Eminence Front
It's not so much the video, but the song. Funny thing was I heard the song many times on the radio, but never knew who did it. I always missed when the radio DJ said who it was, or they do that thing where they play 4 or 5 songs then tell you who they were. So about a year ago...I tried to look up some of the lyrics after I "paid attention" to it. And for the longest time I thought the lyrics during the chorus was something to the effect of "Living in the Funk". So obviously I thought the group was like Rare Earth, Isley Brothers, some Funk group. I stumbled upon either a wiki-answers or yahoo answers site and apparently someone else thought the same thing as me. One of the people posted lol, and their thought that it was the song "Eminence Front" by The Who and posted the lyrics. After scratching my head in confusion and denying it, I looked at my 30 years of R&B collection. I found the song, played it and wow...I had the collection for many years and had no idea...lol. Anyway long winded story over.
