Band manager picked up a girl at a bar in lower Manhattan(?) In the 1970s, i believe, who ended up not being a girl after all. The band decided to write this song about it. Turned out to be a smash.
Yes. The manager met someone in a bar in Manhattan in the 70s then Ray went back in time to write the song to release it in June 1970. There are two versions of the origins of the story which led to the song. Neither involve Manhattan. One has the incident taking place in Paris, the other in London.
This song came out in 1970, and the club scene in Soho (west end of London) was full of many colorful characters and all sorts of sexuality. So it wasn't a surprise that you might encounter someone who "walked like a woman and talked like a man". And for someone who, maybe was quite aware of these things, it could have come as bit of a surprise. Aside from the lyrics, it really is a great song and that was the genius of the Kinks is that they were creating that bridge from the Beatles to bands like The Who and the Rolling Stones.
Gender non-conformity was a big thing in the '70's. The trans movement has rolled that back 50 years by demanding that women wear dresses and make up (and if a man does this he is a woman) and that men are amorphous beings. Stupid, stupid and deeply homophobic.
Ahhhh the Kinks! The quintessential sound of England, from the edgy rock of their early years which drew inspiration from American R&B to the later English music hall folksy sound. Lola, probably more relevant now than it was when it was first released way back in 1970. You should react to more Kinks. I would recommend "Come Dancing" That would put a smile on your face for sure.
Waterloo Sunset is an absolute classic, quite probably their finest song for me but their back catalogue is like a history of popular music. Victoria, Dedicated Follower of Fashion, Autumn Almanac, Dead End Street all great songs, you can't really go wrong with this band.
Ah Morenikeji, I have no idea what things are like in Nigeria but I’m assuming things are more conservative. This was a song written in the 60s. It’s actually way ahead of it’s time. But London is a very cosmopolitan and liberal place back then and now. That extremely witty song captures it nicely. The Kinks wrote some great songs capturing the zeitgeist like that. If you ever come to London and I hope you do, then prepare for a culture shock. I’ll show you around!
Wow!👏🏼👏🏼 You’re right about your assumption about Nigeria by the way.😄 I appreciate the info you gave too. And for the if I ever come to London part? I hope so too!!!😄 Every young person here is leaving for UK or Canada.💗
@@MorenikejiTaiwo I suppose my assumption was more an educated guess. I had some colleagues I worked with at a former employer who were from Nigeria. I’m sure Canada is very beautiful. Very cold though. And London is tge home to me your number one fan!
Right about Nigeria, the only country on the African continent to have rights for gays is South Africa, because after years of oppression under apartheid the anc love em or hate them, said that no South African citizen would have their rights taken away in South Africa every citizen is equal under the law both Mandela and Desmond lovely man r I p supported this ,what puzzles me is that most of Africa has been colonised and oppressed and yet they haven't learnt anything, well I never thought ide say this god bless the anc
Hi Morenikeji! The Kinks - Lola. Written by Ray Davies. For me Top 10 song. 1970 I hope you will reacts to Ray Stevens - Everything is beautiful. 1970 Thanks for your reactions! 🙂
Good reaction Morenikeji for someone who would not have known of the Kinks before. I was a teenager when this came out and I loved the Kinks music then and still do. Very original group.
I think that you're my fav pop/rock music reactor... It's the joy in your eyes, and your boogie to the tunes! We really got a kick out of the song back-in-the-day upon its release.
Thank you for the sincere and genuine smiles in the video as the story unfolds. I'm a 65 year old gay man in the Pacific Northwest of the U.S. I am more than happy to see younger, more accepting people in the world, you made this old man's day.
Just think when this came out such a long time ago! I love this song. It is so funny! Now I suppose the haters are going to try to bring it down because they have NO sense of humor. Let's find out.
Excellent. clear audio of a wonderful 1970's Kinks composition. I enjoy watching your expressions and your "take" that you share . Greetings from NYC. rbl
Hi Mo! A friend of mine many years ago had a similar experience. He picked up a young lady he said was beautiful. So when they got to the hotel/motel and she started undressing, he was shocked to find out she was a he. He got out of there as fast as he could🤣🤣. Enjoyed your reaction as always Baby Girl!
Hi Morenikeji ! Where’s it come from that you like the music from the years 50 till 80 ? I like it so much, I’m from 1957 ! And this period has awesome music! You are much younger and like the music period , like you also the music from later years ? I’m Happy to see that you like this music ! Thanks for your choice and a big 💋! Love from Holland. 🙋🏼♂️👍👏😘💐🇳🇱🫶
In the hilarious 3rd Naked Gun comedy film, Lt. Frank Drebin discovers a "Lola". That brief scene always reminds me of the Kinks song. (And now vice versa).😂
Hi Mo, great reaction as always & glad you enjoyed this fun song! Ray Davies writes some great lyrics, another song you might like is Come Dancing which is based on his sister's nights out clubbing. Keep smiling beautiful !
I love your accent, your intellect, your taste, your insight and your stunning beauty. You’re now one of my favorite reactors. God Bless & Merry Christmasto you and your family!
Hi beautiful baby girl 😚😍 There is a excellent live version of LOLA recorded in 1979 in Providence Rhode Island. That became a huge hit in 1980. The Kinks where abandoned in the USA from 1965 to 1969. Why? Because by every concert they give they trashed the hotelroom where they stayed. Love you much ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Leon 😘
Fun song, This remined me of a meme I saw the other day that was referring to all the excessive hate in the world. "I've never understood the concept of bulling, like why TF are You mad that I'm ugly?" Peace/JT
Morenikeji you must be doing something right. The weather in Edinburgh is horrible - as per the norm! And it is just after 4 a.m. And , yet, I barely notice due to binge watching your videos. So thank you for taking time to react to some fantastic , and classic, music.
Funnily enough this was initially band by the BBC in the UK. Not because of the Trans lyrics but because originally the song said "we drank Coca Cola" and the BBC did not allow advertising or product placement. So the Kinks produced a version which substituted Coca Cola for Cherry Cola.
Between this and the Lou Reed song this is a thing. Not to upset anyone's politics, but acknowledging and accepting might be prudent. Not everyone is going to be who you expect them to be, and that is super cool.
Mo, I'm pretty sure her name was not Lolade! Although I know a few Lolade's, and one of my wife's names is Omolola (child of Lola). As usual, great facial reactions and your emotion always comes through 🙂. You're something of a joy in most of these vids!
Hi, Mo. Gosh, this is one of those 'remember it from long ago' songs. I liked the song, but the lyrics didn't make sense to me (pre-teen years) so I just gave up on listening to it 😅Enjoyed your analysis and reaction. Thanks for sharing. Stay healthy 👍🏽 ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
Hi Mo, This is a great song, lyrically and musically, as you say the rhythm, its comical too. Your face was a picture when it hit you what the song is about, maybe things are more conservative in Nigeria? In the 60's when this was written I think it was fairly controversial, but things have moved on and people, generally, accept the way people want to live their lives
The funny thing is, I have seen several movies that have similar stories to this song “Lola” and they were by Nigerians. Though just like this; it had more comic effects too😄. I honestly didn’t remember while I was filming, I’d have added it. Hmm, yes , things are a bit more conservative over here.
This is a true story the Kinks were in a club and their manager was dancing during the night with somebody he thought was a woman. He told the band he`d met the "woman" of his dreams until they pointed out to him that she was actually a man. The band made this song due to that encounter.
hello my favourite baby girl 💖- this is a such a classic song from the 70's. It tells the story of a romantic encounter between a young man and a possible trans woman or cross-dresser! It was banned by BBC radio in the UK, not for the subject matter, but because it mentioned Coca Cola in the lyrics and the BBC had a policy against "product placement". 🤦♂😂. Always wonderful to experience your lovely smile and energy! 😘 Lots of love 🥰
Homosexuality was legalised in 1967 in the UK, just 3 years before this was released. London, and especially Soho, was probably more relaxed, but attitudes were still quite conservative when it came to alternative sexuality... I guess the radio and tv executives didn't understand what it was about! Bear in mind that just 14 years later, Frankie Goes to Hollywood's "Relax" was banned by the BBC.
no one notices that normally you would say "a sweet dark voice" but it is sung "a sweet dark BROWN voice" something should be added to that as it certainly means something! maybe afro dude
I cannot believe Ido not see one Dimash video on your channel. PLEASE give a listen and you will not be disappointed. It would be best to start with "SOS" but anywhere would be good. I love his version of "Hello" by Lionel Richie, "All By Myself" and Ikanaide. Just listen to him. He's from Kahzacstan but he sings in several languages. Don't forget the subtitles. He is considered the best singer in the world. His first release went platinum in 37 seconds after release and triple platinum in one hour.
The Kinks had everything to be as big as the Beatles. The problem was that their so-called bad behavior got them banned from touring the US as much as they would have liked.
Yeah this song always makes me laugh. He thought he was having a wonderful date with a woman but she was a man. It's happened to so many guys over the decades and that's the funny part about it. Nothing against anyone trans people it's just because of the stereotypes we have have for so many things.
This song is an awesome play on words, it is all lined to make out Lola is a man, but the singer says I am a man and so is Lola, in other words Lola is either a man or is pleased that the singer is, the other major Kinks hit Girl you really got me.
Even though many different artist we may not be a fan of some, still their style is very important to keep in the mix for inspiring Young artist. A good deal of inspirational artist can come from unexpected bands and styles of music. A man named jools Holland Had a TV show featuring groups from all around the world.
That was difficult for you Mo … I think I can guess both the influences in your background and the Societal problems you might encounter if you discussed the lyrics. But it’s okay, you don’t have to go there. Remember that. If you make a video and you feel compromised by the lyrics, hit delete … and find something else less potentially controversial. There are hundreds of thousands of music videos out there and probably 90% of them are going to put the smile back on your face. Don’t go out of your comfort zone for anybody.
The line "I'm glad I'm a man and so's Lola" is ambiguous (deliberately). It can be taken to mean Lola is also a man, or that Lola is also glad he (the singer) is a man. The ambiguity is one reason this song is such a lot of fun, because it plays with words.
Awesome song, great band. Not enough Kinks reactions on TH-cam.
Great job as always.
xoxo
My favorite line from a rock and roll song... "I'm not the world's most passionate man but I know what I am I'm a man I'm a man and so is Lola!"!
Interesting since there is no such line in that song.
It's "I'm not the worlds most MASCULINE MAN, ..."
OH, ok. At least we're talking about that very last verse. Still my favorite line in any rock tune.
Mick Avory. Criminally underrated drummer.

Band manager picked up a girl at a bar in lower Manhattan(?) In the 1970s, i believe, who ended up not being a girl after all. The band decided to write this song about it. Turned out to be a smash.

I was 11 years old when Lola was released. I still play the Kinks music in my car today.
