Totally agreeaance "And i wish i had all his money!".This lass is so natural and hope to hre more from her and hher and furure REAL talent !!
XXXXGo on girl!!! best wishes for her futureXXXX🎵🎙🎤📻📻📻📻📻📻🎶🎬🎬🎬
As an ardent Kinks fan, I am often appalled at the steady stream of lacklustre Kinks covers are really nothing more than an insult to one of our cultures greatest acts, but this cover version is an absolute delight!
I want more!
Best cover I've ever heard. I'm absolutely obsessed with this video.
Absolutely fantastic! Never thought I'd hear one of my favourite Kinks songs covered so originally. Just superb!! (Maybe a little more volume on the sitar).
This is an awesome version of my theme song. Thank you! I am David Watts!
This is really original! I bet even Ray Davies would be wowed by this arrangment. Thanks for uploading!
I'm a huge long-time Kinks fan and this is sheer delight! I'm adding it to every play list! Thank you!
Love the picture in the wall of four London phone boxes . London is so cool
Nice and smooth!
Astonishingly refreshing and add on lyrica for this young one...
Take all his cash as sharpish lass...
Truly amazing on harp and whilst remainiv her way pf contwnpirary.
GO ON LVE ...!!!
XXXXXXX
Very cool Mikaela...All of your friends were there.
Yes, I see what you did there...
Wow..i just realized that its been 11 years since you guys uploaded this video 😮
I love this song. .i could never imagine it that there's was this such good cover. It blew my mind..
Gotta check more of your channel 😉
I like the unusual covers, like this one
Discovered this 10 years late. Amazing!
Love 💕 it! Fantastic original version of a classic Kinks song! Unique 😊
Great voice the singer has- blank but quizzical, intelligent but puzzled. Love the stand-up sitar pose too.
This is awesome, wish i had seen it when it came out so i could have 6 years of enjoying this arrangement, but better late than never.
I stumbled upon this searching for Kinks covers and I thought this was one of the best. Cool use of the sitar and harp!
JUst stumbled on this. Wow, so good
What a wonderful version absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!!
Wow! So unique & talented. Voice is very clear. The band is good. 💐🎼👏
Liked with no hesitation! So much fun!
Btw, I have a phenomenal cat named Purrcy!
Yea! This is a keeper.
That's freakin' great!
✌😎👍🧠🌌♾
Wish I could be as cool as these three. You made my day!
I’m impressed. She is extremely talented.
This is a first a harp and Sitar together! Sounds glorious! :)
Ah oui, excellent. L'énergie des Kinks est intacte, avec le sourire en coin de Davies.
Excellent 👍
Classy, Great cover
I keep coming back to this. Enchanted cover!
You just made the harp cool!
Nice and smooth
Great and unusual version.
Great job...hard to pull off a Kinks song, but this was awesome.
A perfect, perfect fit for that sitar !
All the more because the Kinks (not the Beatles) were first to take inspiration from that instrument in a pop record
(Drone guitar on See my Friends;
they'd been on a stopover in India while on tour)
Kooky and really cool. Great lead vocal by this woman and back up vocals. A creative rendition of a masterpiece song.
Brilliant...absolutely brilliant musical interpretation! Well done! Bravo!!! Pete
Brilliant! Love it!
beautiful.... xxxxxxxxxx
watching a second time......I love this.
Awesome!
Fantastic
Wicked good interpretation. Kudos to a brilliant arrangement!!!
VERY well done!!!
Nice!!!
Another great cover and the Kinks are always a cool choice. Good luck Mikael!
Brilliany❤
Ray Davies wrote the song but The Jam own it
Enjoyed this cover of the Kinks hit, hope you make it big - very good!

Just listened to this I don't know how many times...good job ..lovely voice
Absolutely fantastic!
The Kinks are the Kings
Lyrics
I am a dull and simple lad
Cannot tell water from champagne
And I have never met the Queen
And I wish I could be like David Watts
And when I lie on my pillow at night
I dream I could fight like David Watts
Lead the school team to victory
And take my exams and pass the lot
Wish I could be like David Watts
(Wish I could be) Wish I could be like David Watts
(Wish I could be) Conduct my life like David Watts
(Wish I could be) I wish I could be like David Watts
He is the head boy at the school
He is the captain of the team
He is so gay and fancy free
And I wish I could be like David Watts
And all the girls in the neighbourhood
Try to go out with David Watts
They try their best but can't succeed
For he is of pure and noble breed
Wish I could be like
Wish I could be like
Wish I could be like (Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa)
Wish I could be like (Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa)
Wish, wish, wish, wish (Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa)
(Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa)
(Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa)
(Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa)
Be like (Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa)
Wish I could be like (Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa)

Her vocals aren’t too far removed from the original.
It’d hard for me to really form an honest opinion, cause I love this song too much.
But I enjoyed it. So, that’s a plus.
