Bargain (song)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bargain is a song off of the Who's Next album by The Who. The song, like many of the songs written at that time by their guitarist and main songwriter Pete Townshend, was inspired by Meher Baba.

The song is about losing all your material goods for spiritual enlightenment, thus being a 'bargain.'

Roger Daltrey sings most of this, but Townshend sings the verse that starts, "I sit looking 'round, I look at my face in the mirror..."

The first line of the song, "I'd gladly lose me to find you" is from one of the teachings of Meher Baba.
