The story behind
The Who recorded I Don’t Mind in 1965, as part of their first album, My Generation. The song lasts just over two minutes, almost two and a half minutes. In the United States, the album was released under a different title, The Who Sings My Generation, and with a different cover. The boys of The Who did it quickly, after their first singles were successful. The song has a strong rhythm, a clear guitar, and a voice that moves between soft and firm. It is a direct piece, with little embellishment, that feels like a conversation between friends. The lyrics talk about not caring what happens, about moving forward, about not letting anything take away your joy. It is a song that can be played live, that moves, that does not stay still. People still listen to it today. On Last.fm, it has over a thousand plays, and remains part of the band. ↓ Skip to chordsIntro 1
