Considering this was 1970, this is incredibly trans positive. They never question Lola’s attractiveness, or make fun of the MC for being attracted to her. Remember that this is the year after Stonewall. This song was way ahead of its time. And it’s just generally awesome. Another awesome one is Walk on the Wild Side by Lou Reed.
@mfree80286 2 жыл бұрын
Yes, but there was also a brilliant out left in the lyrics just for the stiffs in parliament. "But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man, And so is Lola". Obviously we know what's meant, but if there was any official questioning... "of course not, Lola is simply glad he's a man as well." Then again, even that doesn't directly produce a sexual assignation. Bravo, wordplay.

In walked LOLA, but my friend didn't know and before I could say anything he was buying her a drink. I figured he was a grown man and could handle himself. He came back about 20 min later very red-faced and said, "Dude, we're leaving."

The song "Lola" by The Kinks was released in 1970. I was 14 and I really got into many of the British rock bands when they invaded America with their music in 1964. I saw The Kinks for the first time in 1977. I also saw them in 1980 and around in 1983 or 1984. All three concerts I saw them in my hometown of Santa Barbara, California. Ray Davies was quite the showman on stage and very comical.

USA here and a teen in the 70s. IIRC, the coca-cola version is what is on the album it's from and the cherry cola version is what was released for air play on the radio, since MOST stations spun singles at the time.

In the 60s-80s soho was the Red Light district of London. None of them had a liquor license so if you asked for champagne you’d basically get some non-alcoholic carbonated drink (I.e. Coca Cola) but you’d still be charged champagne prices because you weren’t as much paying for a drink as you were paying for a girl to come sit with you.

Great reactions, haha. And remember, this song "Lola" is 51 years old. Quite before it's time, wouldn't you say?!!!

Welcome to the genius of songwriter Ray Davies. The Kinks were absolutely brilliant, and Ray Davies wrote so many great songs. Just a few: Waterloo Sunset, Days, Animal Farm, I'm Not Like Everybody Else, Victoria, Picture Book, Oklahoma USA, 20th Century Man.....god, the list goes on and on and on and on. His brother Dave wrote some great songs as well.

I can't believe this song is over 50 years old. Crazy for me to think about. Not only was it from the '70s, it was from 1970.
@danielswood 2 жыл бұрын
As far as I remember, this was just highly rated as a great Kinks song, with their typical quality and originality - and Ray Davies' fantastic vocals! A fun tune, with a message that really, 50 years later or so, shouldn't need any explanation. It's a bit sad that it sometimes does. If you're not familiar, please check out Waterloo Sunset. Think of a bridge over the river Thames in London and a young couple in love on the bridge while the sky is full of the colours of the setting sun. It's so sweet! ❤❤
