Great bending of the rules, one of my all time favourite songs. Believe it ranked highly in the list of 'greatest ever songs' too.

Was number three in Rolling Stone's "Greatest Ever Pop Songs" list, terrific song.

When you think of The Kinks you probably don't think of this.

Beat me to it, was thinking of this "not so Kinks" Kinks song today.

Something a little different from Marc Bolan. Have this on vinyl, sounds really great...

Would like to hear your vinyl version sometime CG. It's a cute little song, as is the alternate version-still cat related, and wizard's hats too.....

Ah but how can you go past the 70's classic...


Or this Cuban 60's one's English lyrics in the back half of the song.
