"The Pride You Hide" is a song by the English rock singer Roger Daltrey, who at the time was the former lead vocalist of the Who. The song was written by Alan Dalgleish, Nicky Tesco and Roger Daltrey.[3] The track was included on Roger Daltrey's sixth solo studio album, Under a Raging Moon, as the fourth track on the first side of the LP.[4] The album was a tribute to the Who's former drummer Keith Moon.

Cashbox called it a "forlorn ballad [that] shows a slow side of Daltrey, though he cuts loose on the bridge."[5]

The song was released as a single in 1986 on Atlantic Records reaching #92 on the UK singles chart.

The single was re-released as a limited edition double pack, which featured an unreleased B-side, and live tracks including a live cover version of the Who's 1967 single "Pictures of Lily" and a live version "Don't Talk to Strangers" from his album Under a Raging Moon.[6]
