Youth 68 Peace Love

Still from Youth 68 underscored by The Who's "My Generation."

The Who is an English rock band formed in 1964 consisting of Roger Daltrey, Pete Townshend, John Entwistle, and Keith Moon. Some of their most well known songs include "Baba Oโ€™Riley," "Behind Blue Eyes," and "Pinball Wizard."

Their 1965 hit "My Generation" was used in Jim Henson's 1968 documentary Youth 68. In 2023, the Electric Mayhem performed "Join Together" in The Muppets Mayhem episode "We Will Rock You."

Animal, the drummer for The Electric Mayhem, is sometimes erroneously said to have been based on The Who's drummer, Keith Moon.
