Fun fact

Post by StevieFan13 »

I tried checking to see which song ranked highest on AM without actually topping any of the lists it was featured on. The answer is “Be My Baby,” which comes in at #7.

Cool statistic. I checked for the next song. It's "My Generation" at #14.

Now that's odd. You mean not a single "Best Who Song"/"Every Who Song Ranked"-type list had it at #1? Or have we just not added any?

I wouldn't be surprised honestly. Who centric lists tend to favor Baba O'Reilly and Won't Get Fooled Again where as all time lists favor My Generation
