--- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "feste37" wrote: > > So who the hell was Lily? All I know from the song is that > she died in 1929. >From Wikipedia: Pictures of Lily "Pictures of Lily" is a single by the British rock band The Who, written by guitarist and primary songwriter Pete Townshend. It was released in 1967 as a single, and made the top five in the UK, but failed to break into the top 50 in the United States. In the beginning of the song, the singer laments his insomnia. When his father gives him the pictures of the song's eponymous Lily, he feels better, and is able to sleep. Soon, he feels desire for Lily as a person instead of a photo, and asks his father for an introduction. His father informs him however that "Lily" has, in fact, been dead since 1929. Initially, the singer laments, but before long turns back to his fantasy. According to Pete Townshend in the 2006 book "Lyrics" by Rikky Rooksby, "the idea was inspired by a picture my girlfriend had on her wall of an old Vaudeville star - Lily Bayliss [sic]. It was an old 1920s postcard and someone had written on it 'Here's another picture of Lily - hope you haven't got this one.' It made me think that everyone has a pin-up period." Lillie Langtry, the music hall star, died in 1929, the year in the song. Townshend's statement is unlikely to refer to Lilian Baylis, the theatre manager, who died in 1937. Mark Wilkerson quotes Townshend as writing that the song is "Merely a ditty about masturbation and the importance of it to a young man." However, the song does not mention masturbation explicitly. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BmkBroiw1s > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, turquoiseb wrote: > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "feste37" wrote: > > > > > > Pictures of Robin made my life so wonderful > > > Pictures of Robin helped me sleep at night > > > Pictures of Robin solved my childhood problems > > > Pictures of Robin helped me feel alright > > > > > > Pictures of Robin > > > Robin, oh Robin > > > Robin, oh Robin > > > Pictures of Robin > > > > This is hilarious, feste.
