Peter Townshend from The Who recently told television host, David Letterman, how he turned to alternative medicine to help him deal with hearing issues from Tinnitus, UK-based New Magazine reported.

“For me it started in a delightful way. I used to wake up in the morning and think, ‘I can hear the birds singing! I’ve never been able to hear the birds singing.’ It started with peeps and whistles and beeps so it was very much like birds singing,” he told Letterman.

Once he realized the issue, he sought out an alternative medicine expert in homeopathy to help him with the issue.

“Right now I don’t have it badly. I have done quite a lot of new age medicine stuff to help me. And a homeopathic teacher, or a homeopathic doctor, helped me a lot with this, so I would recommend that,” he said.

Townshend also has a new book out called “Who I Am.”
