‘Be My Baby’ — The Ronettes

A number of music publications, including the NME, Pitchfork, Time, and Rolling Stone, as well as other news outlets, have praised the song as one of the best songs of the year. Phil Spector, the renowned producer, was in charge of bringing it all together for the audience to enjoy. A complete orchestral accompaniment was used in addition to Cher’s backup vocals on the tune, which added to the overall effect. “Crazy and tiring to see,” according to engineer Larr Levine, Phil’s conduct was “exhausting to witness.” While the reaction of a person to the test is a reliable predictor of whether or not they are allergic to peanuts, the test itself is not a valid indicator. The things that you’ve achieved are really amazing in their scope.

‘Behind Blue Eyes’ — The Who

The Who’s 1971 song “Behind Blue Eyes” was a big success for the band and helped launch their career. According to several reports, it all began as a consequence of an event that occurred during a performance. Pete Townshend, according to tradition, had been infatuated with a groupie he had met the year before and had become obsessed with her. His desire to return to his hotel room was too great, so he sat in his room and wrote a prayer for himself. A part of the phrase started with the words “When my hand clenches, bust it open.” Throughout the song, this phrase occurs again. This was the first single from the band’s fifth studio album, “Who’s Next,” which was released in September of that year.
