Shepperton is a town in the borough of Spelthorne, Surrey, England. To the South it is bounded by the river Thames at Desborough Island and is bisected by the M3 motorway. It is equidistant between the north Surrey towns of Chertsey to the west and Sunbury-on-Thames to the east.

Shepperton Video

"Won't Get Fooled Again" is a song by the rock band The Who. Written by Pete Townshend, it combines guitar power chords with heavily processed organ and synthesizer sounds to create a textured, atmospheric introduction that explodes into the verse. It tells of a "revolution of revolutions" in an endless cycle, where "the change it had to come, we knew it all along" but each successive new regime turns out to be just like the old one, so that straight away it's time once again to "pick up my guitar and play, just like yesterday, then I'll get on my knees and pray we don't get fooled again". The 1971 single release (a drastically edited version at three-and-a-half minutes in length) reached #9 in the UK. The song originally appeared on the 1971 album Who's Next and has since appeared on various other recordings, including the live compilation soundtrack for The Kids Are Alright, the 1979 documentary film about the band, which in the 1978 Shepperton film studios shoot, was the last song the original lineup ever performed together. It is famous for its angular organ part set against guitar power chords, leading up to an extended synthesizer break into a drum entrance followed by a long scream by Daltrey.

9.15 min. | 4.92 user rating		 The FULL VERSION of this video is now available at a HIGHER RESOLUTION! Click this link: youtu.be The Who rip it all up with Won't Get Fooled Again, recorded live at Shepperton Studios for Jeff Stein's awesome rockumentary "The Kids Are Alright". These six camera angles are included in the DVD's Special Features and presented a special challenge for me as an editor. I thought it would be amazing to sync them all up. And it really is. Also note that I've panned Entwistle's bass to the left channel and full mix to the right. (YouTube might convert all it's audio to mono, however, which would just boost the bass guitar level overall). This is a truncated version to fit into YouTube's 10-minute time constraint. If anyone would tell me how to upload videos longer than ten minutes (as I've seen often on YouTube), I'll put up the full version ASAP and be much obliged. Many thanks to my friend Angshu for introducing me to The Who's music. Please do check out my edit of Baba O'Riley as well! Buy the DVD; I want to stay on YouTube!

9.98 min. | 4.96 user rating		 Incredible song of genesis played by Peter Gabriel, Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford, Phil Collins, Steve Hacket at shepperton. Lyrics: Watcher of the skies watcher of all His is a world alone no world is his own, He whom life can no longer surprise, Raising his eyes beholds a planet unknown. Creatures shaped this planets soil, Now their reign has come to an end, Has life again destroyed life, Do they play elsewhere, do they know More than their childhood games? Maybe the lizards shed its tail, This is the end of mans long union with earth. Judge not this race by empty remains Do you judge God by his creatures when they are dead? For now, the lizards shed its tail This is the end of mans long union with earth. From life alone to life as one, Think not now your journeys done For though your ship be sturdy, no Mercy has the sea, Will you survive on the ocean of being? Come ancient children hear what I say This is my parting council for you on your way. Sadly now your thoughts turn to the stars Where we have gone you know you never can go. Watcher of the skies watcher of all This is your fate alone, this fate is your own.
