    I can’t decide. I do like Love better as a song but Baba seems to be more fun live, engages the fans more
    It's painful to hear Ed attempt to hit those notes on Love.  Baba is so much damn fun.

    There are great versions of both. My favorite Baba is from the '98 vault show and my favorite Love is from the 2007 Rock Honors. I prefer the PJ version of Love, but The Who's version of Baba so I vote against it for best cover.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    As a cover I‘m solely basing it on the 2007? 2009? The Who Rock Honors Show. Best version ever and he was still able to hit the notes

    Yep. This version is gold.

    Re. Comfortably Numb (along with Mother, Imagine, and Arms Aloft)
    These four songs would have made the top 16 if we just went back to the number of performances over the past decade (since 2009). If I were to do do this round again (don't worry, I'm not) I would have added them to the list we started with and we would have just chipped away at 20 songs.

    Maybe next year.
