Song |
"Somebody Saved Me" is the ninth song from Pete Townshend's 1982 solo album, All the Best Cowboys Have Chinese Eyes. The song was originally submitted for The Who's 1981 album, Face Dances, but was ultimately left unreleased. The original version was taken at a slower pace and is far more personal-sounding than on this album; this was released on the 1997 CD reissue of Face Dances. "Somebody Saved Me" seems to be about Pete's well-publicized descent into self-destructive behavior following the death of Keith Moon in 1978, and makes several allusions to his fallen friend ("And when I finally woke up clean, my friend was dead / Stone dead").
