| The Kinks – I'm Not Like Everybody Else Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
I've always loved this song and I have a strong fear the hipster community will find it and try to use it as their anthem. But hopefully we'll never see that day. Anyway, I agree it's about non conforming and being your own person, but I think the main point Ray wanted to get across was that he isn't just not conforming for the sake of it, he legitimately feels different from everyone he knows. That isolation where no matter who you meet, no one gets you completely. Yeah sure he may relate to people, but he's not really like them. And more importantly, it's not something that's going to change. In the verse when he's addressing darling, he agrees to do everything she wants him to. But no matter what he does, it won't change the fact that he's not like everyone else. Just some thoughts. I could be wrong. |

I just, I only just found this song today and I just think it's so beautiful. Because a lot of the time I have trouble expressing to people why rock and roll is so wonderful, why no matter what I listen to I always compare it to rock and roll; to Dylan, to Cash, to Lennon. And it's because real rock and roll, real honest to God fucking rock and roll has the most heart out of any music. Real music can save someone's soul. I've thought that for years now, and the fact that Frank Turner understands that makes me so unbelievably happy. Fantastic song, every word is Goddamn true and I'm so happy this exists. |
