The Mod Song which represented a new generation’s anger and frustration at the older generation’s complete lack of understanding for what all they stood for.
How the tables have turned. Ironically the song has now been adopted by the older generation the other way around. The Zimmers, which as Guardian would have us believe
have a combined age of over 3,000 years and are more likely to have problems with arthritis than hard drugs
have released a video of the classic “The Who” song. And its amazing to see how easily the song can represent a generation of old people many of them whom would have been target of this song way back in 60s. Lead Singer singer Alf Carretta for sure as he would have been in his 40s at that time. And as Zimmer’s website state
The sentiment behind Alf signing “I hope I die before I get old” is something else.
It really is!!! Enjoy the kickass video
