an awesome song by the greatest rock band in the world, the who. forget the beatles, the who created real rock. i mean they were the first people to start that hitting your instruments to the ground.
some weird slut: "what are you listening to?"

slut: "huh? is that like old music?"
me: "no its a new hip hop band, you should go buy their rock opera tommy!"

The first generation to have no rebellion, no dissent, no revolution. Comprised almost entirely of people going with the flow and cliques like Emo which are perpetuated by corporations that make money off of them.
With this new generation comes a new media technology. Like TV, radio, and probably some other thing before it, the Internet lets people communicate and do stuff in a new way of some kind. Hmm.
We're raised in an era of mass hysteria, fake democracy and facaded fascism, and we keep getting fooled again and again.

The quintessential Who song. It was one of the first songs to have a fucking badass bass solo, and the stuttering vocals are extremely distinctive (I think that they were that way because the Who were a mod band at this time, and the mods were always going on speed, which makes you stutter, but again I'm not sure about this). Without the Who, rock would not be the same. My Generation rocks harder than all this modern pop shit that corporations pull out of their ass combined. It's one of those songs that people will still be listening to in 400 years (along with the rest of the Who because they were fucking legendary) I just wish I could relate to the song...
Most memorably, the Who destroyed their set after playing this song at the Monterrey Pop festival in 1967. they became famous for instrument destruction after that, especially with this song
People try to put us d-down (talkin bout my generation)
just because we g-get around (talkin bout my generation)
Things they do look awful c-c-cold (talkin bout my generation)
I hope I die before I get old (talkin bout my generation)

My generation,
Days and nights are turned upside down
Burning days into nights,
and burning nights without any light.
What a difference do we make if being given another thousand days?
"It doesn't matter, all the same", they say.
My generation,
We are prideful and proud of illusions
Creating self-deception, as well as deceiving one another
Believing in lies that are not substantial
We listen. We watch. We idolize.
My generation
Thirty is too old
At fourty โ It's almost the end of life.
If we don't have anywhere to sit,
then alright, we sit on the ground.
Their daily worry is..
how much money they have on their accounts
The most expensive thing is every single ounce of FAITH.
The cheapest thing up-to-date is FAKE PROMISE.
The vile temptation is promoted to every crevice.
What makes a credulous person hesitate to betray?
No, I don't represent my generation!
And my generation doesn't represent anything either.
Hundreds of years later, history will record a few brief lines:
"There was a sad, bland generation has passed ...
under the witness of our eyes."

C'mon guys-who gives a shit about "The Who"-let's straighten things out here!...
"My Generation" is a poetic rock ballad written by the compulsive rock band Limp Bizkit-the song deals with the critical and fragualle tension our society is into...The band describes their opinion and frustration saying the words:shit,fuck,motherfucker & fucked up during all of the song to manipulate anger and to swipe the listener from his feet.
I realy meen all that i've just said...
"We don't-don't give a fuck on-Till u ever give a fuck on-till u-u give a fuck about me-and MY GENERATION"
Aaaahhhh-Fred Durst,never fails to surprise me...he should teach Mozart how to compose music...
