\u201cThe Logical Song\u201d is a 1979 song performed by the English rock group Supertramp. The Logical Song is Supertramp\u2019s biggest hit in the United States and the United Kingdom. The song was written primarily by Roger Hodgson, and the lyric based on his experience of being sent away to boarding school for ten years.
Hodgson had said, according to Wikipedia, that the Logical Song was born from questions about what really matters in life. He said, \u201cThroughout childhood we are taught all these ways to be and yet we are rarely told anything about our true self. We are taught how to function outwardly, but not guided to who we are inwardly. We go from the innocence and wonder of childhood to the confusion of adolescence \u2026\u2026In \u2018The Logical Song,\u2019 the burning question that came down to its rawest place was \u2018please tell me who I am,\u2019 and that\u2019s basically what the song is about.
