    I'm 56 and have heard this song all my life. It wasn't until i was about 52 that I actually listened to the lyrics and got it.

    This is one of those bands where you know way more of their songs than you think. I’m constantly thinking, “this is by the Kinks!?”

    I grew up listening to The Kinks in the 60s and 70s. Their best track, I think, is Waterloo Sunset which always makes me cry, for some reason.

    Lola Vs. Powerman and the Moneygoround Part 1 is a really strong album, a lot of it about the music industry.

    Their 1981 album Give the People What They Want is all that punky rock sound or watch their concert at Rockplast 1982 which is awesome.

    If you pay attention to the lyrics of this song it's freaking hilarious. Its like if a comedian put part of his act to music.

    Stumbled across your channel the other day. I really like that you listen to whole thing & not constantly pause like most reaction channels. Am enjoying your UK selection. Great hearing Demon Days in full! I’d recommend Kasabian, Royal Blood, and Placebo

    Saw The Kinks in 1980 then West Germany (Frankfurt) for their *One for the Road* tour. Hate to say it. But the opening band *Nine Below Zero,* an *English Blues Band* (touring for their debut live album * from The Marquee* - a very excellent album of old r&b soul / country tunes - it's on UA-cam) was much, much better than The Kinks that night. During the Kinks show. I ate a piece of hash. I felt myself floating. I knew my feet was touching the ground. And my arse was in my seat. But that a different high I experienced that night.

    You guys did an excellent review of their classic album Arthur a while back. In the case of the Kinks, more is definitely better. Sir Raymond and his brother Dave are still with us but several members of the band have sadly moved on.

      No, they definitely didn't. They invented hard rock.

      @@DerekDerekDerekDerekDerekDerek Bummer. The last time I saw them was around close to 40 years ago. What other old stuff have you been turned onto? Here is an album I suggest all females in their 20's listen to. Carol King "Tapestry". Are you familiar with the Talking Heads? Peter Gabriel? Dire Straits? ua-cam.com/video/BJii3ACoqDc/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/3_Q79lls1f0/v-deo.html

    How come you guys don't seem to remember you listened to the whole Arthur album. You talked about them being the missing piece in the punk story.

    @kencliff9914 Рік тому +1

    You were asked to read the lyrics as you listened and so you completely missed the twist/punchline. If the person requesting it specifically asks you to look at the lyrics, you should do that.
