The Kinks were an English rock band formed in London in 1963 by brothers Ray and Dave Davies. They are regarded as one of the most influential rock bands of the 1960s. The Kinks' music drew from a wide range of influences, including American R&B and rock and roll initially and later adopting British music hall, folk, and country. The band gained a reputation for reflecting English culture and lifestyle, fuelled by Ray Davies' wittily observational writing style. The Kinks and the songs of Ray Davies are now rightfully established as a great British institution. From the opening riff of You Really Got Me, The Kinks’ influence as pioneers in heavy metal, power pop, conceptual albums, and theatrical shows can be detected in much modern music.
This, and much more, can be seen on this YouTube channel exclusively devoted to these true British originals.

Every time when I´m in London and have the time, I walk across Waterloo Bridge. One of the best views down the Thames. I still remember those years in the 60th and this beautiful song. I am 72 years now, Greetings from Germany.

I was a Sr. in high school. Blasting down the interstate at 4:30 in the morning after all night bowling with some friends. This song came on and I got lost in it. I stopped at a pay phone and called the radio station to find out the name and who sang because I was afraid I'd never hear it again. Took forever to find it in the record shops but I finally did . Loved it then, love it now. I'm 60 years old and that feeling still comes back to me. Great to be alive.

I remember walking down Carnaby Street in the hot lazy crazy days of the 60s with this blaring out of a shop ... absolutely fantastic to this day !! Timeless

A few years ago I went to see the Kinks musical in Glasgow . An elderly lady who sat next to my wife and me rose to her feet and started singing along to practically every song . I turned and asked her if she had seen The Kinks back in the day - " Oh, yes , a few times , I loved them then and still do . " She then told me she was 78 years old . What a remarkable lady .

as long as I listen to Waterloo Sunset, I am in paradise
-
One of the most beautiful and evocative three minutes of English pop music ever. The Kinks were in a class of their own and Ray Davies was a master songsmith.
-
18 year old here just to say that this band is fantastic and this is honestly one of my favourite songs of recent memory.
-
Waterloo Sunset, one of the best songs ever written in the history of the music. Ray Davies, one of the greatest songwriters/singers ever. The Kinks, one of the greatest bands ever.
-
England has no shortage of great bands, but none has ever been so uncomprimisingly English as the Kinks, and I love them for that
-
From watching ONE DAY beautiful piece of music
-
A very happy 80th birthday, Ray, and many more <3
