Christmas (song) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Christmas (song)
"Christmas" is a song written by Pete Townshend and is the seventh song on The Who's rock opera ''Tommy''. On the original LP, it opens the second side of the album. ==Lyrics== The song tells how on Christmas morning, Tommy's father is worried about Tommy's future, and soul. His future is jeopardized due to being deaf, dumb, and blind.〔 The lyrics contrast religious themes such as Christmas and Jesus Christ with Tommy's ignorance of such matters. The rhetorical question, "How can he be saved from the eternal grave?" is asked about Tommy's condition and adds speculation as to the nature of original sin and eternal salvation. In the middle of the song, "Tommy can you hear me?" is repeated, with Tommy responding, "See me, feel me, touch me, heal me."〔Perone 2012, p. 247.〕 However, Tommy's life changes when he receives a pinball machine and eventually becomes the "Pinball Wizard".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=8247 )〕
