Short intro

Lola was the lead single from the album Lola Versus Powerman and the Moneygoround, Part One originally released in the UK and the US in June 1970 and. Apeman is a 1970 song by the English rock band the Kinks. It was written by Ray Davies and appears on the album Lola Versus Powerman and the Moneygoround, Part One. In the song, Davies is fed up with the modern world and declares that he wants to sail away to a distant shore and make like an apeman. He also expresses how man created our problems and, given half a chance, he would leave the cities and traffic to live in the jungle. It reflects the nostalgia expressed on the albums Lola vs. Lola - Apeman. The Kinks - Lola - Apeman 1972. To favorites 0 Download album. Listen album. Rock Classic Rock. The Kinks.

I think I'm sophisticated 'Cause I'm living my life like a good homosapien But all around me everybody's multiplying 'Til they're walking round like flies man So I'm no better than the animals sitting in their cages In the zoo man 'Cause compared to the flowers and the birds and the trees I am an ape.

The Kinks were able to perform this song in America because a year earlier, the musicians' union ban they incurred in 1965 had been lifted. They drew the ire of the union on their first American tour that year by clashing with technicians and cutting sets short. The ban kept The Kinks out of sight in the US until 1969. The song was covered by former Marillion singer Fish for his 1993 album Songs from the Mirror. This appeared in the 1986 Robin Williams movie Club Paradise. More songs from The Kinks.

Written by his brother, guitarist Dave Davies , it's a slow and soulful tune that stands on its own with or without any link to the story. Davies would continue his trek of themed albums for several more to follow, but Lola Versus Powerman and the Moneygoround, Part One there never was a part two by the way, is perhaps his finest moment as far as conceptual works, and, arguably, the last truly perfect album the Kinks ever made.

Lola gave the Kinks an unexpected hit and its crisp, muscular sound, pitched halfway between acoustic folk and hard rock, provided a new style for the band. However, the song only hinted at what its accompanying album Lola Versus the Powerman and the Moneygoround, Part One was all about. Hence, Lola - a loose concept album about Ray Davies' own psychosis and bitter feelings toward the music industry. Davies never really delivers a cohesive story, but the record holds together because it's one of his strongest set of songs. The Kinks - Apeman Stereo 03:53, 320Kbs.
