Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend talk to Sky News about their music and their friendship 'not being intimate'.
Of course the line-up has changed over the years, with the deaths of drummer Keith Moon in 1978 and bass guitarist John Entwistle in 2002.But how do they keep the creative spark alive?
Townshend, the band's lead guitarist and songwriter, shines a harsher light on their relationship, crediting emotional distance and good work ethic as a reason for their longevity. "I had an audience, I had a band to write for and a great voice in Roger… And when we get together you know there's also that thing about carrying the history that we do. It kind of imposes and interposes and interpolates a bit of magic. Nothing to do with us.""When we went to play in South America and Mexico for the first time a couple of years back, what was interesting about that was that the kids sort of knew us through YouTube videos of us when we were much younger.
