‘My Generation’ — The Who
Rolling Stone has placed The Who’s “My Generation” as the 11th best song of all time. It’s one of the band’s most popular songs. It was also ranked 13th on VH1’s 100 Greatest Rock & Roll Songs and 37th on their 100 Greatest Hard Rock Songs lists. Pete Townshend’s age-defying song compacted everything it feels like to be young, vigorous, and in the prime of life into 3:18 minutes of bristling hedonism, according to NME in its 100 Best Songs of the 1960s.

‘Light My Fire’ — The Doors
“Light My Fire” by The Doors was ranked 16th on Ranker’s list. It was released in 1967 on the band’s self-titled album. For three weeks, the reworked music topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It is to be credited with driving the brand to new heights. As a result of the song, they were invited to appear on The Ed Sullivan Show, albeit Jim Morrison was asked not to sing a particular passage. “Girl, we couldn’t get any higher,” was the line that got to me. Regardless, he kept singing it. This could explain why they appeared on the show for the first and last time.
