RE: Misheard lyrics



I have always taken the lyric in the latter context, "who's next".  Here's
why.  The next major rock star to die after Marc Bolan (if memory serves)
was Keith, 51 weeks later.

speaking of misheard lyrics - one i've wondered about the context is in You 
Better You Bet
is the line
"..to the sound of old T-Rex and "Who's Next" "
or is it
"..to the sound of old T-Rex and who's next?"

is it the album mentioned or just a question...?
