Was watching House, M.D. and one of the earlier episodes had this song on. Well, only the introduction part (Dr House was interrupted when the drums came in) but that alone was enough to get me all pumped up inside me. One of the greatest rock song along with Bohemian Rhapsody and Stairway to Heaven.
P/S: I always thought the song was titled Teenage Wasteland, until I read this.

Baba O’Riley
by The Who
from Who’s Next (1971)
Out here in the fields
I fought 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 crossland
Put out the fire
Don’t look past my shoulder
The exodus is here
The happy ones are near
So 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 couldn’t find The Who’s Teenage Wasteland to download - thought I was crazy. A google caught your info - thanks for knowing the real name of the song.
yeah I got to this song exactly the same as you, it was very annoying that I didn’t know what was the song name or the artist..=) now finally I can hear it fully without being on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yX57LvxDko)

I’m not an english born so I can’t really tell, nevertheless I’ve found the lyrics like this.
I heard it on House too, I wanted a copy as soon as I heard it!
