Probably the most unappreciated Kinks song, and certainly my favorite. Rays' lyrics are fabulous and the whole song is clever while not having too much hidden meaning. |

This is such an under appreciated Kinks song, great rhythm and lyrics. Simple meaning I guess. |

The last line sums up the meaning of the song. This is yet another great tune on surely one of The Kinks' best albums. Rays' writing is impeccable and it totally fits what the whole album is trying to say - new stuff is great, but it wasn't so bad before. |

The song is pretty much just saying that we shouldn't lose our national identity and everything that's British. It was written during their American ban so they're writing a British song for the British people without outside influence - I suppose it could be a subtle knock to American commercialization of both everyday life and even music. This song is quintessentially British and it solidified The Kinks as a band who stuck to their roots when many bands were going to America and writing songs that had no link to where they came from. The lyrics are incredible and this should be shown as one of Ray's best pieces - great rhythm too! |
