The Kinks have made a ton of great records and this is one of them. Great song! Great vocals and harmonies! Great lead guitar work! Great performance! Notice how the emphasis is on the down-beat here - which, in addition to being a great, all-around record, makes it also a great, EARLY disco/dance record whose only fault is that it should have been at least twice as long - no, make that 3 times as long.
This song may have been written in 1965,but I have declared it to be the official anthem of life in the 21st century. You can't get jobs because those frekin employers keep playing games like checking credit scores. Those assholes are perpetuating the depression! Like the Kinks say, YOU CAN'T WIN!!!
@tamspeci It's all about exploitation right now. Why would you want to be exploited? The government will pay you NOT to work, and much higher check amounts.
damn,..... do i love the kinks ,...

What a brilliant tune. Doesn`t sound like from the 60s. The Kinks always ahead of their time. Dave and Ray`s lead vocals are unique!!!
