Townshend on We Won’t Get Fooled Again Mike Rappaport
Now, I really like the blogosphere! Pete Townshend responds to the claim by National Review’s John Miller that “We Won’t Get Fooled Again” is the greatest conservative rock song. (Hat tip: Jonathan Adler.)
Townshend’s response reminds us that you never know what is in a songwriter’s mind. Although sometimes you get lucky. I remember arguing with friends that “Get Back in Line” from the Kinks was a libertarian song and that Kinks were libertarians. My friends laughed at this (and me). But then it turned out that Ray Davies said he was largely a libertarian.
