"My Generation" vs. "Breakdown (Live)" -- Who "Won't Get Fooled Again " vs. "You Got Lucky” -- Who "Behind Blue Eyes" vs. "Don't Come Around Here No More" -- Who "Baba O'Reilly" vs. "Listen to Her Heart" -- Who "Pinball Wizard" vs. "Don't Do Me Like That" -- Who "Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere" vs. "Thing About You" -- Who "Can't Explain" vs. "American Girl" -- Who "Love Reign O'er Me" vs. "Here Comes My Girl" -- Who "The Punk and The Godfather" vs. "Refugee" -- Who "Amazing Journey" vs. "The Waiting" -- Petty 9-1 Townsend. And the vote for Petty is for pity alone -- they are OK, but nothing comes close to the Who.

I like all 20 songs below. Every single one. "My Generation" vs. "Breakdown (Live)" --Who. "Won't Get Fooled Again " vs. "You Got Lucky” --Who "Behind Blue Eyes" vs. "Don't Come Around Here No More" --Hmmm. Tie? "Baba O'Reilly" vs. "Listen to Her Heart" --Sick of the former, and this contest has made the latter grow on me. Still, have to go with the Who. "Pinball Wizard" vs. "Don't Do Me Like That" --PW was never my favorite ... tie. "Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere" vs. "Thing About You" --I'll give this one to Petty by a hair. Both killer songs. "Can't Explain" vs. "American Girl" --Keith Moon really makes this one go. Who "Love Reign O'er Me" vs. "Here Comes My Girl" --Who. "The Punk and The Godfather" vs. "Refugee" --I love "Punk" and doesn't he 'Meet" the Godfather? Anyway, should be as big as "Fooled Again" but isn't. Who. "Amazing Journey" vs. "The Waiting" --Petty pulls out one. Who 7, Petty & Heartbreakers 3 (edited because I hadn't decided on PW)

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers are like Kevin Bacon in Animal House - "Thank you sir, may I have another!" More Heartsbroken than Heartbreakers.

But, while a few different choices and/or orders could have made it closer, at their best Pete & the boys were among the best around.

My Generation " vs. "Breakdown (Live)" Who "Won't Get Fooled Again " vs. "You Got Lucky” Who "Behind Blue Eyes " vs. "Don't Come Around Here No More" Who My favorite Who song "Baba O'reilly " vs. "Listen to Her Heart" Who "Pinball Wizard " vs. "Don't Do Me Like That" Tie equally indifferent to these songs "Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere" vs. "Thing About You" Tie ditto "Can't Explain " vs. "American Girl" Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers "Love Reign O'er Me " vs. "Here Comes My Girl" Who "The Punk and The Godfather " vs. "Refugee" Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers "Amazing Journey" vs. "The Waiting" Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers The Who 6:4 Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers I'm pretty indifferent to these bands but apparently slightly less indifferent to The Who.

Yeah, but I thought it might affect the wording of the tee shirt.
