Day 15 - A song that describes you.
A curmudgeon.
According to his brother (not mine, maybe an ex though - just add sociopath), "Vain, egocentric, narcissistic arsehole."
Could only be Ray Davies, right?
Um...
When this song from his first solo record started playing I thought the guy was spying on my life.
"Right now I want some peace of mind
So let it go right over my head
Just want to give myself a little more time
And every single word that you said
Went over my head, yeah"
Truth from the world's most overlooked songwriter.
And about that Kinks reunion, It's on you now Dave!

Everybody's a Dreamer, Everybody's a Star
Watched a horrible documentary about The Kinks last night. A wasted hour with horrible production values. At least I did not pay for it. Best not to mention it again.
The clip above is interesting. I'm not familiar with the show "Don't Forget Your Toothbrush" so I looked it up on Wikipedia. That's Jools Holland on the keyboards and former Squeeze drummer Gilsom Lavis playing too.
Here's a mid 70's clip of one of the best songs Ray Davies has written.
