“Living on a thin line” is one of the coolest songs you’ll ever here. Immensely underrated.
So many Kinks songs for you to react to like Celluloid Heroes, Rock N' Roll Fantasy, Dedicated Follower of Fashion, Stop Your Sobbing, Destroyer, (Wish I Could Fly Like) Superman, Low Budget, Don't Forget to Dance, etc.
Tomorrow...I think is another
Cliches of the world side b ....is one of the hidden gems
Great list. Add Apeman.
Around the Dial, Waterloo Sunset, Tell me now so I know. Maybe the best concert I ever saw. Front row center stage. Ray Davies reached down and shook my hand and threw me a guitar pick.
Yeah, Waterloo Sunset, for sure, and someone said Lola, right? Stop Your Sobbing another classic, later covered by the Pretenders.
Holly Golighly did a good cover of "Tell me now so I know," which is featured in the Jim Jarmusch-Bill Murray film Broken Flowers.
The Kinks are one of those typically English bands that managed to treat us with music that was Not like everything else. Their hits are including "Dead End Street" "Sunny Afternoon" "Tired of Waiting" "All Day and All of The Night" please keep on with your reactions & keep the great music alive.

Don't forget Lola and Paranoia Will Destroy Ya.
@@coxmosia1they've done Lola already
Love The Kinks. They stood out in a sea of groups at that time. Something special about them.
You guys nailed this! There's a lesser-known ditty by the Kinks called Shangri-La. It's about class society in Britain. Give it a listen. Thanks for all that you do for Kinks fans and others.
"Shangri-La" ... oh, excellent recommendation. Seconded!
This was the B side to Sunny Afternoon, but became a hit on its own and is now recognized as one of the most influential of all the Kinks songs, as much of their stuff, way ahead of its time ✌️
This is a great newer version by Ray. The original version was sung by brother Dave. One of my favorites. The Kinks had great "B" sides.
This song was originally sung by Dave. It became an anthem for the fans so Ray started singing it. Check out the studio version on The Great Lost Kinks Album.
J'ai 74 ans et je suis toujours fan des Kinks,j'aime le son et le style à la fois soft et hard et leur voix nonchalante et rugueuse,c'est toujours un plaisir de les écouter merci.
Been following the Kinks since 1965 and I’ve never heard of this one before.
One of those bands that I am so thankful to have seen Live. The entire concert was a party. Dancing and Singing crowd to every single song. Love them!
I’ve always loved the Kinks, the Guitar sounds so good in this song.👍🎼🎵🎶👏👏👏♥️♥️
Dave Davies was a great, but somewhat underappreciated (at least these days), guitarist!
This is a newer version with vocals by Ray, the original was released in 1966 as the B side to "Sunny Afternoon" and was sung by Dave. It was originally offered to The Animals, but they passed on it. It was also recorded by The Chocolate Watch Band in 1968.
They were doing a live version of this in 1965.
I was only familiar with the original Dave Davies sung version. This one is pretty good too.
Dedicated Follower Of Fashion is a very fun Kinks song from the 60s.
For a song that came out in 1966, it sounds incredibly modern. This could be a new release. It's also nice to hear Dave Davies.
Best fuckin rock band ever. I have listened to The Kinks for 50 years and ever time I play their vinyl I am never disappointed. The Who are my favorite band but The Kinks are the best. For people my age that are in to music The Kinks have easy 30 hit tunes. Trendsetters man and they play every style.
I love your channel! So much fun seeing your reactions to songs I grew up with. The Kinks were one of my favorite bands, and Ray Davies is a great songwriter. Thanks
Dave is such an amazing and influential guitarist. So much heart & soul. He plays what the song needs, not just flash & fireworks

The Kinks - Living On A Thin Line
December 14, 1984, was the day I went to my 1st concert ever when I was 14 years old. It was The Kinks with Tommy Shaw of Styx opening at the Philadelphia Spectrum. I got tickets for a Christmas gift from my mom. I always play The Kinks at this time of the year. RIP Mom, Lori, Michele, and the Spectrum. Happy Holidays to all!🎄🎅🏼
The Kinks were my first solo concert ever, too. October 26th, 1980, at the Nassau Coliseum. (They played the Spectrum the next night.)
I was 17 and technically my first show was when, on a summer visit to look at colleges, Dad took me to Tanglewood, thinking there would be a classical show going on, and instead we ran into a Bonnie Raitt show with a bunch of kids sitting on blankets and smoking pot, but Dad (RIP) stayed mellow. (Of course, that could have been from all the pot in the air.)
But the Kinks were the first show I decided to check out on my own.
I think the importance of this band in rock music, nowadays, is being very much overlooked.....they had almost everything in their music...punk, Beatles-ish melodies, David Bowie-ish issues, rock-blues, hard rock (during the '80s). GREAT band !!! Happy Christmas everybody !
Speaking of Kinks and 1984, their song "Do it Again" is great and has a funny music video to go with it... ua-cam.com/video/LeQSjbCYOX4/v-deo.html
at the old garden for radio gaga. and as a free show in ‘Southwest’ umass amherst september 82.
And then part of the concert for the rock n roll hof in 1995 where they saluted the british invasion
at the greatest single rock n roll show in history.
Gotta love The Kinks!! Y'all made me smile AGAIN!! Thank you!!
Wow! I never heard this song by The Kinks before! I was born in 1973, so I've heard tons of the "oldies" from my Mom and Dad, but this is new for me! I love it! Thanks for the reaction. I really needed to smile today. Your mission has been accomplished!
I was born in 70. The worst was in 1999, I worked at a music store much like the store in Empire Records (movie). This kid came up to me and asked if there was an oldies section. I asked for a specific band and he said...Journey!!! OUCH I felt a wrinkle seep into my forehead at that very moment lol. Then he also bought the Kinks....all for his mom. I was only 29 but THAT made me feel old.🤟🍻
It's from the To the Bone album which came out in 1994 I think.Its all live and studio live albums with 2 new studio songs.
The kinks album 'state of confusion' is a hidden gem
@williamyates694 Oh man, that's funny! I love Journey, by the way. They were one of my Aunts favorite, along with Billy Joel and Elton John.
Same!! It's awesome!!
I was born in 63. My sister was 9 years older than I was. she introduced me to The Kinks The Beatles the stones the doors I grew up with all the original rockers. The Kinks were always my favorite. I know all this stuff. this is nothing new to me. They made great music for four decades. A song that no one seems to remember is their last release in 1993. How do I get close to you great tune to close their era. Check that one out everyone knows all the other ones. Just a thought from an old rocker who remembers the bands till their end.
Lol, your sister was a better big sis than I was! I was the eldest and my parents were NO use (although we did have "Dark Side of the Moon" because every house in America had *that* ), so when I started trying to expand beyond the AM radio stuff I had to endure while Mom was driving me around (Dad only wanted to hear the news and classical music, so he refused to pay for an FM in the car), I just randomly started buying Jefferson Airplane/Starship albums as presents for my brother…because his name is Jeffrey. Seemed as good a place to start as any other, lol.
I love Jefferson Airplane but Jefferson Starship Jane is one of my favorite Tunes. Man I love old music LOL
Next Song 'Celluloid Heroes'. Love your talk about the Kinks. You have remember we had to wait for weeks, even months, in anticipation for every new single they released. You guys have the songs instantly at your fingetips. Lucky you.
You all are a blessing! I love your ending with a blessing to all. J and Amber you always make me smile! Loce you both and i tell people all the time that i think you are wonderful! On my heart to let you know what a testimony you give!!!!
One of my all time favorite bands. Their social commentaries mixed into such great music...that's talent. Still listen to them!
Love the Kinks. Lighter side of the Kinks, - Low Budget., Classic Kinks, - Celluloid Heroes and more rock - ( Wish I Could Fly Like ) Superman and Destroyer
Days is one of my favourite KInks songs. Kirsty McColl did a fantastic cover of it,
Totally unappreciated band. The Kinks were brilliant. Merry Christmas!
You need to hear the studio version of this song, with Rays brother Dave singing his heart out, and of course playing that amazing riff.
The Davies never shied from telling society what they thought about it. ☮💜🎶
I like the shadenfreude of you wearing the New Orleans T-shirt because Ray Davies used to live in New Orleans, and that is where Ray chased after a thief who had stolen his then girlfriend's purse and got shot in the leg. I mean he is not like everybody else. Even in his late age, he was fearless like that. I am also so glad you chose the live To the Bone version which was used in the Sopranos. It is the best interpretation of this song! It is one of my all time favorite songs! Absolutely smashing. And your right about the guitar work as well, Dave Davies, Ray's brother, is one of the great rock guitarists! The Kinks were huge when they came out with You Really Got Me and got a chance to tour America. Unfortunately, their tour manager left them, I believe to manage Sonny and Cher, leaving Ray (18) and Dave (16) to fend for themselves in a foreign country. Can you imagine trying to manage things themselves at that age in a country they had never been in? I mean as the song suggests, they were fiercely independent, but it is a tall task. We don't know what exactly happened. We don't know if it had to do with teamsters taking their band name the Kinks the wrong way. Whether there was a fight or not? But, we do know the result was the teamsters refused to work for the Kinks and it effectively resulted in them being unable to tour the US at the height of their career, with all the financial implications of such a situation. The US was where the money was at. But, it created a very special creativity and it created a cult following of fans who just love the band. Play more Kinks! There are plenty of people out there that would love to hear young people get a chance to enjoy them! If you want an amusing 60s song, you should try Dedicated Follower of Fashion.
Fantastic band. This is a later version. The original studio version pops. I’m not complaining. I love how everybody in the audience sings along lol
Yes - the B side to “Sunny Afternoon” (1966). Dave takes lead vocals on that version. It’s a classic.
And this version changes one of what I consider one of the more important line. "I won't say I feel fine line everybody else"
I think this live version is way better - especially with the intro where ray says "Everyone expects us to do great things - and we mess them all up" and the guy in the audience yells "Oh no you don't!"
@@davekahana1584 lol. Yeah this is a great version.
And Ray's vocals? Damn, that shit hits hard@@davekahana1584
Once again the two of you have nailed it, The Kinks are special and truly exemplify the 60's revolt against the establishment, I encourage more Kinks. Please consider some nuggets from their "Schoolboys In Disgrace" album, cuts like "Education" "The First Time We Fall In Love," "The Hard Way" or "Jack The Idiot Dunce." Happy Holidays and I look forward to more of that thing you're doing for all of us who love you in the New Year, cheers!
Underrated(I hate that term) album, one of my favorites.
This song is the blueprint song for most of the most influential British Indie bands in the early 90s, they are all present in what this one song does, The Stone Roses, Pulp, Blur, The Charlatans, Primal Scream and more.
It's the unofficial anthem for KinKs-fans, and ofcourse we see the irony of EVERYBODY singing in the audience along that we are not like everybody else, but it is true for the band itself. Thanks for a great reaction, and maybe react once on Celluloid Heroes (the live version) from them. It's also an absolute gem.
Have you guys done "All Day and All of the Night" yet? That's a good one by the Kinks
The Kinks are in the class of the Who and the Stones... Celluloid Heroes or Misfits
Through the 70's their concerts were tops.
The Kinks are so frickin cool-you know these guys were a big influence on Led Zeppelin and AC/DC and other bands of the era. Speaking of AC/DC, you should totally do “Ride On.”
Thank you! Some Kinks songs from their "Schoolboys in Disgrace" album would be cool!
Never heard this version of the song before I've always heard the 1965 album version
I've never heard this either. This is not the Kinks 60s version. No idea what this is ??
From "To The Bone"@@denpea-mm8zr
@@johnniekight1879 Thanks, live in the 90s I discovered.
Yep, different vocals, different lyrics, different guitars. Both rock, though.
They were together for 33years and made a lot of good hits.
If you like the Kinks, you really should try "Give the People What They Want", since the title is one of your catch phrases. That said, "Celluloid Heroes" is a great song by them that you should do next.
Jay & Amber, you'll love their "Destroyer" !!!
I think they HAVE done "All Day And All Of The Night", but it got taken down. I remember waiting until they hit that one and "Lola" before I started recommending "Destroyer".
Then again, I could be older than I used to be, lol.
thanks@@Jessica_Roth
I've always loved the Kinks and yea, the solos fits the song so well... it's a nice groove. Merry Christmas to you and your family, cheers.
Check out their song rock ‘n’ roll fantasy. Lots of really nice harmonies
See My Friends by the Kinks, 30 July 1965 packs an emotional punch for me.
Following the Kinks since the mid sixties....this is the best/longest version i've heard so far. Great intro, is a verrry cool song...damn. With the Sopranos connection this ones gonna fly (views and likes). Good reaction. Good taste....you're now forgiven for your Rock Lobster reaction J.
Destroyer is the song that got me hooked on The KinKs. now, i love just about all of their songs.
A song by The Kinks that I didn't know - and so fantastic!? Wow thanks! As I just read it was the B-side of Sunny Afternoon and was written for The Animals.
Please do Celuloid Heroes - it will bring a tear or two to your eyes even though you probably don't even know half of the names as many are not that famous anymore as at that time.
I did NOT know this song!! So happy you played it!! The Kinks are awesome, rock royalty at the top level. To me they are the original punk attitude garage rock band. And so many great songs, others have listed them. If you havent reacted to it yet id go with Sunny Afternoon! And btw, just got back at 4am today from New Orleans, Amber 😊 SUCH AN AMAZING MUSIC CITY!!!!
Very nice guitar work on this by Dave Davies. Another track to hear/see is "Jukebox Music". There is a video of this live from 1977 on the Old Grey Whistle Test show in the U.K. (WhiteRose63). Share the intro by Ray. Showcases not only Dave's great guitar work, but Ray and Dave's harmonizing are spot on. The Kinks are in top form on this.
Gotta do the Kinks, off the album'GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT' the song DESTROYER. A song you'll both dig, fun rocker. And some call it LOLA pt. 2
React to the song by The Kinks, “Give the People What They Want”
80’s Kinks are so different, but still amazing.
So many great music to react to! I will just mention Celluloid Heroes, Mr. Pleasant and Dead End Street.
It's not too often that a live version of a song is way better than the recorded LP/CD version. Another Kinks song that kicks ass is "Living On A Thin Line" which
was used in The Sopranos TV show.
This is a great live version many years after the original version, which was the flipside of Sunny Afternoon. That song became a monster hit, but DJ's failed to play the other side. Always been one of my favorites by The Kinks!!!
Beat me to it; I like the original more
Right there with you. The original was punk 10 years before punk was a thing@@BGNOLA
@@douglasdause502 The Chocolate Watchband's version may be my favorite
Happy holidays everyone
This is a rerecorded version of the Sixties original from the early Nineties -- on To The Bone, what turned out to be the band's last album. It's a career retrospective of studio and live recordings spanning the the previous three decades. I saw them live round this time and their sound was seriously heavy - Dave Davies guitar was just about the single loudest thing I've ever heard.
Love this B-side! ❤❤❤Should have done the 1966 studio version!
Another great band from england is Spandau ballet , my favorite number is "through the barricades"
Wow, thanks a lot. This is a huge discover, didn't know this new version. Loved the 1966 original.
Please ! check out "Tears of a clown" with Dave singing lead.
I love this song by The Kinks! Great reaction! 👍
This is 80’s arena rock Kinks,which I love. The 60’s studio version though not as loud is my preferred version.
Ray en Dave Davies have great voices. I never get tired of listening to The Kinks. Can you revisit the band Cheap Trick? Their song "I Want You to Want Me" was originally released in 1977, but only their live version at Budokan in Tokyo became popular. For me, the ultimate version is the one in which you can also hear the audience. The UA-cam video (audio only) is called I Want You to Want Me (Live at Nippon Budokan, Tokyo, JPN - April 1978). Thanks!
You know Ray Davies wife was Crissy Hinde of the Pretenders.
Great Kinks song Destoyer. Off the hook.
Pretenders rocker Tattooed Love Boys.
When James Honeymen Scott was still the guitarist b4 he died. Those were awesome years
If you haven't done their 2 of their biggest hits- You Really Got Me and All Day & All of the Night, you should.
LOVED THAT. I'm learning stuff, never heard that before. AWESOME, THANKS
You must react to The Kinks “Give The People What They Want”.
Waterloo Sunset! Days! Don’t Forget to Dance
PLEASE do Destroyer by the Kinks!! It’s like a sequel to Lola
I kind of tuned out on The Kinks after 'Lola' caused me & friends eyes to roll back in their sockets. But This is Great! Managed to find another classic 'jewel', You Guys! Love It! Thanks! :)
Really wish you would've done the original album version from the 1960s versus this much later live version. The album version conveys the feeling of the song better with clearer to comprehend lyrics. However, the best use of this song was at the end of one of the Sopranos episode. An episode where everyone seemingly is happy and has their sh*t together...except Tony who still feels miserable. So he does stuff to make others angry...and finally he is happy. And then this song plays.
My favorite Kinks song. Ray Davies said this one summed up the band.
One of my favorite songs
This is the universal youth anthem. 💚
I don't think there's a Kinks song I don't really like. Not even any mehs. Every single one a banger.
Another song used amazingly in The End of the F***ing World.
I asked for this ages ago.Thanks!!
Never heard this, but I will always give any Kinks song a listen. They were great and very infuencial to future artists.
Total surprise! The original I think was mono, very thin production and I was expecting to be almost apologetic. This was great with that guitar heavy intro and backing. Thanks and a very happy Christmas!
Correct & respectable live version from the 1996' US double CD release of 'To The Bone'.
Maybe you should try with the original 1966 studio take. Pure Garage/ProtoPunk seminal anthem. 💣🔥
Their two most popular songs were “ all day and all of the night” and “ you really got me” maybe you played them already. They really rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Only the Kinks could take a rejected song and turn into TWO classic songs, 28 years apart.
Ray Davies originally wrote this one for The Animals to record (can you Imagine Eric Burdon singing this, with that big "It's My Life" voice of his?), but they rejected it. So Ray gave it to Dave to sing (usually the brothers just sang their own songs, with Ray writing 90% of them) and made it the B-side of "Sunny Afternoon" (which was a #1, recall) and it featured a lovely Spanish guitar. You can check out that original 1966 version, it's very good.
HOWEVER, through the years, Ray also sang it (it's his song, after all) and in 1994, for the live album "To the Bone", he decided to record his version, and changed the lyrics a bit, and had fun with the singalong bit (since the idea of people singing "I'm not like everybody else" in unison is ironic. Perhaps you remember the bit in "Life of Brian" where Brian tells the crowd of worshippers not to repeat everything he says and they say, in unison, "Yes! We are all individuals!"). And to compensate for taking the vocal away from Dave, he let Dave go all-out on the guitar, since the song no longer had to fit on the short length of a 1960s single.
And then you made me spend a good half-hour trying to come up with suggestions, since there are SO many possibilities. (Not that I'm complaining, honestly.)
For early hard-hitting rockers, try "Til the End of the Day" or "Where Have All the Good Times Gone?"
For observation of British life, try "Shangri-La", which some people call the best Kinks song ever. (Jon Mendelsohn, the music critic who championed the Kinks and said "Waterloo Sunset" was The Greatest Song Ever Written in the English Language, thought this was #2.)
For that whimsical "Lola"/"Apeman"/"Supersonic Rocket Ship" era that you love, try "Gotta Be Free" or "God's Children" or the heart-tugging "Celluloid Heroes", which you will find MANY recommendations for in these comments.
For their rocking return era, try "(Wish I Could Fly Like) Superman". I suggest the performance from the "One For The Road" Concert DVD.
And finally, there is "Destroyer", the love-child of "All Day and All of the Night" and "Lola" that I have mentioned more than once.
(and yes, this leaves out the 1980s stuff, but that's enough for now, lol.)
*KEEP ON KINKIN' !!*
Had the original single that was my dads. Used to flip _Sunny Afternoon_ and listen to it. Not heard it since the 70's. Don't think this^ is the single version!
That one guy in life of Brian shouting "I'm not!" might be my favourite bit of the whole movie. But anyway, awesome song
@@dancarter482 No, this is the 1994 revised version. But the original B-side is out there, as well.
(This is better-known nowadays, because of "The Sopranos" and an excellent IBM ad that used it, but I love them both.)
@@aidankirwan9904 _You're ALL individuals!_
@@Jessica_Roth Fascinating - wondered what was going on with the guitars - my 9year old head would have exploded if it had sounded like that then!
This is a good version, it sounds like a live version, maybe from the 70s. The studio version is is about the same speed, but softer and with no distortion on the guitar.
great reaction you two ! I think you will like their song Catch Me Now I'm Falling
Great Great Great selection! Studio version is even better! Originally sung by younger brother and lead guitarist Dave. (There's even a debate as to whether he wrote it as well). Can't remember if you've done Sunny Afternoon yet, but you definitely should. Victoria, Some Mother's Son, This Time Tomorrow, Black Messiah and Hatred are good ones also.....such a deep catalog.
This is a live version recorded at Konk Studios in front of a small audience on the 1996 re-issue of "To the Bone". Unfortunately the link you chose edited out Ray's typical witty intro to the song. The original studio version was the B-side to their "Sunny Afternoon" single. What makes the original quite unique is that Dave Davies sang lead - typically Dave sang lead on songs that he wrote.
At the opposite end of the spectrum "A Dedicated follower of fashion' - so ifferent but still SO good! :)
I don't remember this one. Please play "So tired of Waiting" by the Kinks. You won't regret it. It identifies an era.
Wow - somehow I missed this song. What a rocker.
Found this song/version from The Sopranos and it's now one of my favorite songs. Shame this live version isn't on spotify though
The Kinks are one of my all-time favourite groups. I know I have a lot of favourites for various reasons, but these really go back to my childhood. This is right up there, but also you must listen to. You really got me. Dedicated Follower of Fashion. Louis Louie. Dead-end Street. Waterloo Sunset. Well, respected man. Village Green Preservation Society.I know, get yourself some Kinks and knock yourselves out. 😊 Try and listen to some studio album stuff, though. You will get the essence of the 60s better.
This is the blueprint for every punk band coming down the road. Say something you believe. Drive it. Add some gang vocals. This is Mike Ness's whole platform . God bless the Kinks ...God bless Social Distortion!!!!!!!
This sounds like a later version, not their original version from the mid 60s; the 60s garage band The Chocolate Watchband did a really great version of it
Ending sound of each Soprano episode!😊
Always loved The Kinks. My first two singles I bought was Set Me Free & See My Friend. Excellent reaction as usual. Merry Xmas all.
Strangers is my favourite by The Kinks but there's alot of solid tracks to choose from. This included.
It'll be a while before you run out of great Kinks songs to react to. Keep 'em coming! I'd like to hear you do Celluloid Heroes & Rock and Roll Fantasy soon.
This was in an episode of The Sopranos. It fit perfectly.
Ray up front while brother Dave with the guitar tones and the band holding it down. Man, I love The Kinks.
