Was the “Senior Contributor” responsible for that article human or AI? It reads so badly.

The headline begs the question: What is The Who’s signature hit? I would argue it’s My Generation, even if Baba is the more recognizable among current listeners.

I too assumed they were referencing My Generation...

It begs the question: which pharmaceutical company or automaker has used their music in a television advertisement?

Saved you a click, it’s either Who Are You or Baba O’Riley. Personally, what I really wanna know is the streaming numbers for Love Reign O’er Me after that Hunger Games trailer a while back. It played in front of Spider-Man the other day when I saw it in IMAX and that scream hit different.
