"You Better You Bet" was the lead single for the 1981 album Face Dances. It was the last Who single to make the top 20 on the US charts or the top 10 in the UK. Lead singer Roger Daltrey claims it as one of his all-time favorites, loving the Elvis-like vocal line as he describes it.

Hard to image that the last time The Who was in the top 20 was nearly 40 years ago... I’m feeling old!

Growing up, I favored both the Beatles and the Stones over The Who. I've grown to appreciate them more as an adult.
