  • "English Boy" is a song by Pete Townshend, released as the first and only single from his 1993 album Psychoderelict. The song is used to introduce the character Ray High, as well as journalist Ruth Streeting, host of Street on the Street. Townshend has said the song is about "the emergence of the modern punk", and has been referred to as the focus point for the entire album. There are three versions of this song: * the first, lengthier version features dialog by Ruth Streeting over instrumental parts of the song. * the second was released as an edited, no dialog version, and appeared on both single releases in 1993 and on the Pete Townshend compilation albums coolwalkingsmoothtalkingstraightsmokingfirestoking, Anthology, and Gold. * a reprise, which ends the album and features a slightly different backing (including harmonica by Peter Hope-Evans and additional cowbell) and dialog by Ray High, wrapping up the album and imploring "what happened to all that lovely hippie shit?"
