One of the best Kinks songs ever wasn't garage rock, or metal, or grunge. It was their beautiful 1965 ballad, "Tired Of Waiting For You." Simply sublime!

Give me a top 5 I might not be aware of.


I had only heard lola nad you really got me until several years ago and I started a "help me get into the kinks" thread on here and Kafka, then as now, was huge in getting me int he right direction. I discovered a ton about them that I dig. Ther'es been a frickton of suggestions alreaydin this thread but a few I haven't seen offhand that I'm personally drawn to are


Daylight
Picture Book
Denmark street

The last 2 are ones I don't ever seen anyone else really mention but I love em. They're quick, short, and "head bobbing, toe tapping" singalong kinda songs. They're simple and not going to set the world on fire btu I get em stuck in my head frequently.

Jukebox Music was a solid song.

Morning Song/Daylight might be the best opener to an album ever. As for Picture Book, I mentioned the whole Village Green album; not a bad song on it.

remember when Ray Davies was visiting NOLA and got shot in the leg chasing thugs who stole his girlfriend's purse ? I do, 20 years ago last month. Of course the then DA dropped the ball and the thugs never went to trial and were released. Some things never change.
