    The Kinks were an English rock band formed in London in 1963 by brothers Ray and Dave Davies. They are regarded as one of the most influential rock bands of the 1960s. The Kinks' music drew from a wide range of influences, including American R&B and rock and roll initially and later adopting British music hall, folk, and country. The band gained a reputation for reflecting English culture and lifestyle, fuelled by Ray Davies' wittily observational writing style. The Kinks and the songs of Ray Davies are now rightfully established as a great British institution. From the opening riff of You Really Got Me, The Kinks’ influence as pioneers in heavy metal, power pop, conceptual albums, and theatrical shows can be detected in much modern music.
    This, and much more, can be seen on this UA-cam channel exclusively devoted to these true British originals.

    I discovered this song when I found out that my dear friend left the world. I remembered that he's following me on Spotify, so I searched his profile. This song is on his playlist, and it immediately placed a spot in my heart. I never thought of him as a romantic, but the songs on his playlist are about one-sided love. Now I listen to this song to remember him. 😢

    • @juanpablojones
      @juanpablojones Рік тому +7

      I agree. In terms of songwriting, they were on a parr with the Beatles and way better than the Stones or the Who. Management issues, difficulties marketing them in the USA and of course, internal conflict in the band.

      I was completely oblivious about that intraband quarrelling (especially the brothers) Saw it on a short docu recently.
      Also, as a kid growing up, my mom being a fan since her teenage years, i knew more songs than the most 'radioproof' hits, but still: digging deeper as i grew older made me see how broad their spectre is. But if you know just of the top 40 songs eg, you might think they're this 'safe' little band. I think because of that perception ,many people kept them in that realm and so they remained unexamined. Same goes for Small Faces too btw @@juanpablojones

      @@Punky_Enjoyeroftrains well like, that's just your opinion man. My opinion I that there are at times glimpses of undeniable truths. One glimpse being that this demo probably recorded days after its lyrics conceived is more haunting and heart felt than anything that's come after it as of yet. I don't think it can really be denied. The Marion (1967) TV performance is pretty astounding. I definitely recommend it.
