I always associated this single with the Vietnam war era, as so with the single Gimme Shelter by the Stones also, for obvious reasons.
I believe 'Wont Get Fooled Again' was the theme song used by the New York Firefighters after 9/11.
Daltrey,Townshend, Entwistle, and Moon were outstanding together as a band musically.

Also from the same album 'Who's Next' released in 1971, their single 'Behind Blue Eyes' has some of my favorite drum work to date, Keith Moon is just (as always) awsome on this one too.

After listing all those "Satanic" songs, you forgot to include the best song on the album.

I've always thought about making a personal list but never actually have. The one song I would build on: Low Spark of High Heeled Boys - Traffic
