The Who (1971) Naked Eye‏

Featuring some of Pete Townshend's most soulful and raw rhythm guitar playing and strongly emotive lead fills seguing in and out it's an atmospheric track that started life as a tender detour during performances of My Generation. While it's use in My Generation was a nice Zeppelin-esque  shift in dynamics before the music kicked up again here it is a sombre ballad about either marriage or being in a band, or both, and how nothing happens the way you imagine.  It is a rare track Daltrey and Townshend share vocals with the former providing a deep cowboy vocal before the latter sings in a terse falsetto straining with heartache. A track from the towering Who's Next album, this was arguably one of the less flashy songs in an album bursting with electricity and innovative layers but is a gem none the less.
