In their thirties ... I'm 65. "Pinball Wizard" was a moderate hit when released, and had reasonable longevity based on rereleases and movies of "Tommy".
It and "See Me, Feel Me" are probably the only two songs from "Tommy" that most people would recognise.
There are some most excellent mashups of "Pinball Wizard" and "Folsom Prison Blues" that rely on the fact that the rhythm of the lyrics match. I shared my discovery with some younger coworkers, only to find that neither had heard of either song.
I saw it with a group of co-workers (one of whom was named "John Carter") and they all complained about how it had ripped off other movies. They didn't seem to care that it was the other way around.
People who believe in an imminent Rapture/Armageddon don't have anything invested in what happens to you here on Earth. You are irrelevant to them and will be treated accordingly.

Why, perhaps in a system where people are supposed to rise to power based on merit, they have been judged and been found lacking.
One of those comments where the heart symbol seems inappropriate.
People question why I fear Christians far more than I fear Muslims.
Those people aren't listening.

David Attenborough [whispering]:
“As the predators close in on their helpless prey, we can only watch in silent horror, for it is not man’s role to interfere in the hierarchy of nature.”
What was that line of his? Something about how what the Europeans call Nazis, Americans would call Republicans? Prescient.
And today's song lyric:
All my life been working for something

If by that you mean "Wesley Crusher", I have to agree. I really enjoyed Prodigy until he showed up.
That said, Academy is the first to just completely miss me. Nothing against it, it has its niche and its own audience, I just got interrupted in the middle of an episode and have no desire to finish.
