So, like, at the moment yeah, we're like totally doing Age Identity in the AS lessons, yeah?  Yeah.  So, like, I said I'd, like, put some videos and that on the blog, yeah?  Yeah, so I done that here, yeah? Nice one.

The song 'My Generation' is very useful for Age Identity essays because of the line 'Hope I die before I get old'.  Originally by The Who  it has recently been covered by The Zimmers  and Robbie Williams has also done ''Hope I'm old before I die' giving you several views about old age from different perspectives.
