Recently I've started listening to The Who, mainly stretching from listening to Oasis' cover of My Generation making me want to explore.
Just wondering what people's opinions are on The Who and what are there favourite songs! I have to say one of my favourites has to be Pinball Wizard.

My Generation
Baba o'Riely
Pinball Wizard
Magic Bus
Pictures of Lily
Can't Explain
The Seeker
Who Are You

There's plenty more to be fair, but those are probably my favourites.

I'm not a fan of Tommy, but for "Quadrophenia". Saw them finally last year on their "Quadrophenia" tour.
My favourite The Who songs are:
Won't Get Fooled Again
So Sad About Us (The Jam has done a great cover of it)
The Real Me
Love, Reign O'er Me
I Can't Explain
Substitute (ever has been covered by Sex Pistols)
Behind Blue Eye
The Kids Are Alright

Pretty much every song on their Meaty Beaty Big and Bouncy compilation. It's got all their singles from the 60s.
'Who's Next' from 1971 is also very, very good. Production sounds a bit dated in parts, but overall a must listen album.
The Who Live at Leeds 1969, the full version not the 6 song release, is my favourite live album of all time.

nice one, Elias. but this is the ultimate version of the ultimate Who song. RNR Circus, if you havent watched the whole thing yet, you're clearly missing something.
vid/sound is not very good, but youtube keeps shutting it down whenever it appears.
edit, here you go, better version :

One of the best rock n roll bands of all time. From a musician standpoint each one of them are are up there in their respective categories. Their rhythm section is just one of a kind. The Bonham/Jones duo is perhaps the most fundamental sound and rock solid rhythm section in classic rock but the Entwistle/Moon combo just bursts with creativity and rampage like no other. Fierce, tight, and very expressive.
Top Songs
Can't Explain
My Generation
I Can See For Miles

Won't Get Fooled Again
