I Love #1's - 1964

Last time, Marc Bolan and his dinosaurs topped the pops of 1971, with Get It On grabbing 29 ticks whilst poor old Mungo Jerry only got two. Onwards now, to a classic year for pop - moptops, boy bands and Cilla Black? It's 1964...

No, no, no! Why do people like 'You Really Got Me?' It is actually one of the ten worst songs EVER possibly. It's so boring it makes my eyes fall out and then there's that awful bit where they're ascending and they draw out the words and ARGH ARGH ARGH MY JUKEBOX HELL.

Actually I am not sure there are any songs by The Kinks that I like. Possibly due to the sheer terribleness of that one.

The noise they make is amazing though! Like a dog barking through a guitar amp. And the build up to the last bit of the chorus with the "aaaaah"s, and Ray bellows "Ohhhh YEAH! You really got me goin'! You got me so I can't sleep at night!" Exhilirating! (I don't know how to spell 'exhilirating' though)
