Great song!! I love what QOTSA did with it. It's one of the few covers that's actually better than the originals IMO. No offense to the Kinks though (great band!)
@assmane999 well .... i hope qotsa make a song that gets covered so i can say that the cover version is better but then put an annoying no offence at the end :P
What I meant was that QOTSA has songs that are covered by other artists (in reference to jamreaper). He said that he hopes that QOTSA will be covered. Several European bands have covered NOK and songs from R at festivals.
This is simple, yet SOOOO complicated. Ray Davies' seamless use of modulation is just unbelievable. Brian Wilson is the only other person I know of who can do that.
This definately is my favourite Kinks song, closely followed by Shangri-la. i like the fact in the picture, it looks like Dave couldn't be arsed lol...
Did not know this song existed until Queens Of The Stone Age covered.
(and I already knew The kinks.)

Hard to believe this was considered a weak follow up to "Tired of Waiting" but the competition must have been tough back in 1965.

for fans of ANY band, the original is always going to be the best, no matter how talented the cover version is
KINKS RULE!
