The Who Popular Songs Ranking [2025] (21–30)

The RockThe Who22rank/position

The Who, whose name is etched alongside the Beatles and the Rolling Stones as one of the three great British bands the nation proudly presents to the world.

Despite being a legendary band that set countless milestones with their unruly performances and a musical range that goes far beyond rock, it’s a bit unfortunate that their recognition in Japan is somewhat modest compared to other UK rock bands of the same era—likely because they never made it to Japan as The Who.

The piece introduced here, The Rock, is a six-and-a-half-minute-plus instrumental track included on the groundbreaking rock opera album Quadrophenia, a work that has made its mark on music history.

For fans of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, The Rock also appears as the Stand name of Tamami Kobayashi in Part 4, Diamond Is Unbreakable.

UndertureThe Who23rank/position

The Who, a British rock band, released the album “TOMMY” in 1969, which is regarded as a landmark of the “rock opera,” a fusion of rock and opera.

Among its tracks, the instrumental piece “Underture” stands out with a unique presence; it is said to depict the hallucinations experienced by the story’s protagonist, Tommy.

The interweaving timbres of various instruments and the tension-filled, complex development are part of its appeal.
