My Generation - The Who
Today in 1967, The Who appeared on The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour.
The drummer, Keith Moon, had loaded his drum kit with some explosives, intending to end the song with a literal bang and cement the band's reputation as outrageous counter-culture icons, but instead angered thousands of American parents and left Moon with shrapnel wounds from a broken cymbal and Pete Townsend with permanent hearing damage.
Great band, but yeah, you very nearly DID "die before you got old".

What Australian Animal Are You?
| You Are a Crocodile |
 You are fierce and strong. You go after any prey that is in your sights. You have a take charge personality, and you are quite dominant. You are not easily intimidated. It's likely that you've had to struggle for survival in your life. You've had to develop a very thick skin. You can be brutal, but you can also be tender. You tend to have two sides to your personality. |
If I had been a kangaroo, I'd have posted this video, but this one works just fine for these results:

What Major Human Emotion Are You?
| You Are Love |
 You truly love your friends, and you even have a special love for all of humanity. Other people mean a lot to you. You find it easy to express your feelings and get close to people.
