Like others have mentioned, this isn't a Kinks song I've heard of. However, if you'd played me this without saying who it was by, I would probably have known... definitely got that Ray Davies touch to it.

You do a cracking version here, mate... I agree there's usually a few tricky corners to get round in most of their songs, but you've plotted a brilliant course through this one. Love that (rotovibe?) guitar tone, too... really lush!

Nice job doing the one-man-band and producer thing.
I like the clear, clean sound and tight playing, and nice vocal. (reminds me a bit of Dire Straights singer)
Great guitar tone.

These days I merely dabble at being old and wise.
But I swear, I used to absolutely excel at being young and stupid.

I don't know it either but everything seems bang on the money to me.

Excellent!
