"Louie Louie" vs. "You Really Got Me"

britishes have garages?

I'm going to go with "Louie Louie" though "You Really Got Me" was a really significant record as far as demonstrating how the British Invasion was this movement of real ballistics couched in this new, progressive, more feminine mod aesthetic.

i am curious where kids starting bands physically start their bands, in the uk

we don't live in caves. we have reliable sources of electricity.

They go the Ministry of Youth Music and apply for a Socially Reponsible Performance ermit and then they take it to the State Rock Moves Adviser who stamps it and passes it on to the Offer for Fucking Mega-Legends who laminates it and puts it in the post, which then takes 3 months to arrive.

permit, Officer

you get the idea, it was supposed to be funny, about socialism

we don't live in caves, either! i wonder this about kids from big us cities, too.

xpost yes most amusing!

I still think it's good, yes.

anyway, my friends in bands when we were kids, they might practice in garages, or living rooms, or lofts. That's what I remember.

Good music will always find a way. I've learnt that from reading magazines and listening to the radio.

Good music wants to be free.

I love "you really got me," but you try drinking a few pints and then playing "louie, louie" on high, without falling on your ass. Nope, it can't be done.

"Louie Louie"

"You Really Got Me"

I have never had a garage

Louie Louie, easily

though, in my head, today, i have Suzy Creamcheese

Uh, the Clash claimed they were a garage band from "Garageland" - that should settle it.

they weren't really though.

louie louie 4ever

both obviously a+ jams, but "louie louie." "all day and all of the night" > "you really got me" anyway.

Pretty cool how both of those recordings (deathless classics, both) had obvious audible mistakes that were simply left uncorrected and released as they were.

"You Really Got Me" was the bigger and better influence on any number of punk & metal bands that followed - a nice tight performance. "Louie Louie" is a lurching drunken shambles, always in danger of falling apart completely, haphazardly recorded and featuring a drum performance that practically turns avant-garde during the guitar solo.

"Louie Louie" for me.

(I've taken for granted that it's the specific Kinks and Kingsmen hits that are fighting it out here.)

Louie Louie any day of the week.

Pretzel Walrus OTM re: all day and all of the night.

I dunno though, You Really Got Me is ALSO a lurching drunken shambles, always in danger of falling apart completely, yet somehow they hold it together, brilliantly inept solo and everything. It's impossible to pick one over the other.

I'd have to go with You Really Got Me. But Louie Louie does always bring back fond memories of John Belushi in a toga.

"you really got me."

tho "i'm henry viii i am" is better than either.

I hate "Louie Louie."
