Behind Blue Eyes" is a song by English rock band The Who. It was released in November 1971 as the second single from their fifth album Who's Next and was originally written by Pete Townshend for his Lifehouse project. The song is one of The Who's most well known recordings and has been covered by many artists.
The song starts off with a solo voice singing over an arpeggiated acoustic guitar. A bass guitar and ethereal harmonies are added in later. Eventually, the song breaks out into a full-scale rock anthem when a second theme is introduced near the end - but it ultimately wraps up with a brief reprise of the quieter first theme. Songs written in alternating sections were something of a trademark of Townshend's writing of the period, going back at least to Tommy, where it was used in "Christmas" and "Go to the Mirror!" The guitar riff at the end of the rock anthem section is also used after the bridge during the song "Won't Get Fooled Again", perhaps serving as a link between the two songs when both were intended to be parts of a single rock opera. (There is similar thematic recapitulation in Tommy and Quadrophenia.)
Behind Blue Eyes" has also been covered by numerous other artists, including Bryan Adams, Sheryl Crow, Stratovarius, Elf, Testudo, Ian Stuart Donaldson, Jon English, Suzanne Vega,Vanessa Petruo, Silvertide, The Chieftains (some live and recorded versions featuring Roger Daltrey), Skrewdriver, Unknown Hinson, Beat Pitcherz, and Lights.
-In Buffy the Vampire Slayer the song had been performed by character Rupert Giles (played by Anthony Stewart Head) in the episode "Where the Wild Things Are".
-Austrian rapper Chakuza and German rapper Bizzy Montana, sampled the song on their free track "Behind Blue Eyes". It's not known if they had sampled The Who's original version orLimp Bizkit's version.
-Crosby, Stills & Nash do a cover of "Behind Blue Eyes" during live performances, calling it "a song we wish we had written".
-Timo Kotipelto and Jani Liimatainen made a version of the song during live performances and later in their studio album Blackoustic.
-Within Temptation made a cover of the song for their 15-years-anniversary on Q-Music.
