This song stands as the greatest song of all time in my opinion mainly because of the contrast of the instuments: firstly beginning with a piano intro, then the drums are introduced. I beleieve that it is an incredible unual introduction to a song. However the main reason why I love the song so much is the combined vocals of Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend.
Out here in the fields
I fight for my meals
I get my back into my living
I don't need to fight
To prove I'm right
I don't need to be forgiven
Don't cry
Don't raise your eye
It's only teenage wasteland
Sally, take my hand
We'll travel south cross land
Put out the fire and don't look past my shoulder
The exodus is here
The happy ones are near
Let's get together before we get much older
Teenage wasteland
It's only teenage wasteland
Teenage wasteland, oh yeah
Teenage wasteland
They're all wasted

I didn't think you could go any further up in my estimation, but this is quite frankly remarkable taste.
ReplyDeleteIf you ask Erica Forshaw about my fire policy with students, and inform her that you would be just behind Buckley in terms of priority, then that will let you know how impressed I am.
Excellent song choice with a well thought out explanation. Good work.
