The phrase originally comes from the song "The Kids Are Alright" written by Pete Townshend as part of the English rock band The Who in 1965. While it is not clear that Pete Townshend or The Who intended for this expression to have any profound meaning within the context of their own song, the phrase has been referenced numerous times across all forms of media, usually with the meaning or connotation that "the young generation are doing okay and are going to be just fine".

The phrase, as originally coined by The Who, has been referenced in songs by the Offspring, Fall Out Boy, Bad Religion, Urge Overkill, Lagwagon, Local H, AWOLNATION, The Parlor Mob, Robbie Williams, Kylie Minogue, Chloe x Halle, and more. The title of the song was also used as the title of a film and is referenced in the titles of numerous television episodes (e.g. That 70's Show, Supernatural, Ballers, and The Simpsons). It was also used in the Final Fantasy VII novel The Kids Are Alright: A Turks Side Story, the novel having various references to The Who.
