Kinks - Destroyer 1981

[marilynrenee1]

my song



[brodyworld]

It rubs the lotion on its skin...

[jkinder1969]

Hahah... for the first couple of seconds Ray's mic was actually on. You can her two voices on the "Met a girl called Lola.." and then his mic is quickly turned off.

[NoatallicA]

AND IT GOES LIKE THIS

[ronfowlermusic]

Where the %$#@ is Dave? Someone is playing guitar on the recording, and it ain't Ray - he barely touches his guitar at all.

[lestoil]

Is that audience on Thorazine?? That's a rockin' fuckin' song and the audience is barely breathing!!!

[TheZenichiMaro]

everyone in the audience is on quaaludes. how are they not just dancing their asses off???

[medic357]

Even with the boys being pissy with each other as brothers do, they made awesome rock n roll.

This is my personal Kinks fav. !

[caddyrolla123]

paranoia may destroy ya!!!!!!!

[kevingthompson13]

PARANOIA MAY DESTROY YA! When school got out in 81, everybody was ridin around yellin this out the car windows......those were the best days of my life. OOPS, thats another whole song & story. From about that time however. You guys need to check out my TOTALLY MUSIC/ARTIST CHANNEL. My Totally Classic, and Totally Video playlists ARE FULL OF THIS STUFF. Close to 100 videos each. Some really good new stuff too. It will AMAZE you. Enjoy!

[secondchapter]

How can the audience be so, like, "still." Do they not hear what I hear?

[tammybyu]

Lmao!!! I forgot about this song.....until I JUST heard it in the Gorcery Store!!! "Well I fell asleep then I woke feelin' kinda queer, Lola looked at me and said Ewww, ya look SO WEIRD, she said Man, there's REALLY Something wrong with You, One day Your going to Self Destruct!!!"

[MrCCRFan]

I HATE PLAYBACK !

[waterechoes]

80's video club shout out - MB, KW, PS, BAAL and don't forget the CoolWhip, everythings better with a little CoooooWhip.....

[CrashMarket]

Your paranoia will sure enough destroy ya and all the things that annoy ya,it's just a misunderstanding ,no need to hang it up,one shaky landing doesn't mean were crackin" up.....Joe South

[1dabirdman]

[sixteanine1]

I'm a self destructing man.

[chrisgsayshello]

Where the fuck is Dave Davies?

[baszman]

something wrong with this video lead guitar in vid & ray is the only guitar player not right

[MrJotubyl]

Paranoia, the destroyer !!!!!!!!!!!

[shanehenning26]

happy birthday ray davies

[queipo1959]

Where is Dave Davies in this video...?

[goofygoat2009]

@queipo1959 I wondered that too. I think him and Ray used to have fights.

[goodsey123]

love it!

[iminlovewithannamae]

and it goes like this...

[aircooledberndoggie]

I remember the old days when thats the way it was done on shows. Look ...NO CHORDS anywhere. It was just for tv. They kicked ass though! Lip synch and all!

[flippyflyer]

dave and ray fight maybe?

[ExRayeEyes]

Lip sync FTL.

[TakeUsOutOfThisGloom]

Tongue wags are always a plus.

[tjnuge]

I like how this song is about self-destruction & they use 2 of their most famous songs to form it. Using the Oh-So-Common chord progression of "All Day and All of the Night" as well as references to both that and "Lola"

[mjj237]

Dave is so good on guitar he doesn't even have to be there to kick out the awesome riffs...the Ghost of Dave adds some nice backing vocals towards the end, too. Always liked this song, though, even if this is an obviously fake performance of it.

[423likeajewel]

best song about paranoia :)

[goodbye41]

lol totally lippn' it

[Dethheadkaps]

i dont see the fuss with the Doors using a Kinks melody, get over it. its better this way with 2 (3 including this song) great tunes instead of just one

[Zeesterling1]

Howdy!

[ProfessorJukes]

Dave apparently didn't have to show up to lip-synch - lucky him! Every time there's a guitar lick the camera shows the background. LOL

Great song. You're allowed to steal/reinvent your OWN tunes!

[LyraBB]

Where is Dave? Is this mimed? First time I've seen this clip. I miss Dave but I do like Ray's moves.....

[TheJakewilson]

rays and dave got so much style

[7beers]

We've heard this melody twice before: 1. Doors: Hello, I Love You. 2. Kinks: All Day And All Of The Night.

[GboxFilms]

All Day And All of the Night was first- Doors ripped it off you can say.. And after almost 20 years of the Kinks playing their original hit, they were probably bored with it and decided to try and jam it differently. The result was this and it kicks ass!

[artrock101]

There's an old Doors band bio that lists The Kinks as Jim Morrison's favorite band.

[ni183able]

I missed Dave in this vd, it looks like theres a space free and nobody can fill it.

[Sandbagger300]

Great song, but this is so different from what the kinks do, this seems like something Black Sabbath would put out...great song nontheless though!

[madog20]

i can see kiss doing this. gene simmons singing lead.

[Dethheadkaps]

my uncle was conviced this was kiss til i showeed him this video lol

[Brian77TX]

lol...I had this tune in my head and I honestly thought it was the Rolling Stones...until I saw a post on another video saying it was the Kinks...and i was like hmmm...lol

[jayfey77]

ur just showing how stupid you are this is like a new 80s version of you really got me or all day and all of the night,listen to the bass riff its the same as those old kinks songs.

[n4009saftey]

good track nothin better than the old kinks tho

[AlabasterDog]

just absolutely STELLAR!

:)

[krankiekat]

Dave may not be in this video but his guitar is! As much as I love Ray and he is my life long hero, There is and nevr could be a KinKs with out a Dave! God save the kinks, Ray and Dave and all thier fans who have supported them through the years, they remain sekond to none and I remain Dan the Dan aka Frank Lima, the Montvale, New Jersey Hillbiily Boy

[martykate]

Dave could have absented himself from the band--mad at Ray again

[gootenslog]

I heard on VH1 that Dave had a stroke a few years ago and is still recovering. Very sad. I hope he is doing well.

[martykate]

Dave had a stroke in June 2004 and has recovered almost completely. He just finished a project called "Mystical Planet".

[taff667]

where is dave?
