I just turned 70 and I just stumbled upon this video. Am totally blown away! It is so encouraging and uplifting not only to hear great music from my youth being performed by young people of today but that these same young people give this song such a stunning (? Is that the right adjective?) and certainly fascinatingly subtle presentation. Kudos to the cameraman too whom I believe captured visually everything that was possible to capture visually.
So rare to find an excellent drummer who will say I can do this on just a tambourine. AND a supreme jazz trumpet player say, sure, I can play the guitar on this, AND a singer like Rachel who will say I can pull off a guy's song with conviction, AND a bass player, Bridget, who can drive the whole (possible) mess into a great song. Absolutely love it. Four TALENTED musicians.
Funny, I thought the opposite. No offense 90.9, but the camera doesn't have to be moving every second. Nonetheless, great job capturing their sound live.
@@ronfisher5259 The first time I ever heard the Kinks was via radio. I'm 66 now but I still remember it stopped me in my tracks. I think the Dum Dum Girls did a great cover of this iconic song. Greetings from Oklahoma. You/your loved ones, please be safe in these weirdly unsettling times.
You seem to be in need of some exposure to great bass players. Try Jaco Pastorius on for size. He's wearing the red shirt and white pants. th-cam.com/video/DHQfIwyEVzY/w-d-xo.html
I’ve been playing the bass for 43 years this year and this is some of the best and most subtle bass I’ve ever heard, it both mirrors the original line yet adds so much more.
you didn't say if you played an upright, fretless, acoustic bass....if you did you know just how difficult it is to master the instrument --- Bridget is a true master
Man that was refreshing. Young people playing old instruments in every single person with a smile on their face. That is the way our world should be everyday. Beautifully done.
They did back in 2012, it is called Fun Machine and has five fantastic covers. And, their covers are all over TH-cam. Check out their live cover of Rich Girl from Pickathon, 2013.
Just found this gem last and can’t stop watching. This is amazing. I keep coming back to these 2 things: I love that Rachael belts out the opening lines with her hands on her hips like this is nothing. How is this band not bigger??
I've played this video probably 50 times and it still gives me goose bumps. It was the first Lake Street Dive song I remember hearing. Now I have multiple albums, have seen them in concert twice (with more to come I hope). Excellent band.
I am 73 and a fan of Lake Street Dive. This rendition of one of my favorite songs which I saw the brothers do in person is magnificent. If you aren't familiar with this band I would suggest to look up their music and enjoy. I saw this band one time in Oakland, CA. As you will see with their videos they are all live and in one take they were great.
I love the youtube algorithm sometimes. I would have never searched for this song or band but there it was in my recommended videos..... what a voice!! Ill be checking them out for sure.
I LOST YOU!! LSDive helped get me through covid lockdowns. Love the Kinks, Lola and Lake Street Dive! My old band used to do Come Dancing...oh, the days.
Saw the mighty Kinks 2 times live. In the days long gone and this is the best cover of a great song. Attack sureness decision competence. Are all there. Bravo!
Four fortunate souls collided then colluded their talents. We who listen are blessed. I have completely changed my levels of expectation with all others for whom the title band is the mantra. No Jive, it's Lake Street Dive! Who cares whos second.
merci de faire exister ce genre de chanson par votre sublime interprétation , qui remplie notre coeur d'émotions et de souvenirs jusqu'à la dernière minute de notre vie, bravo bravo bravo.
No matter which cover they do...I'm always asking myself, if this version is better than the original. Somehow they manage to capture the essence of the song, and still make it their own. Amazing!
Amazing, AMAZING cover! I can't count how many times I've watched them sing this in the last month alone! These guys are superb musicians, all of 'em, but most especially the bass player Bridget. And Rachael Price is such a great singer!! Absolutely LOVE her vocals and vocal style. She puts soooo much intensity and passion into this great rock classic that it really makes it fun to watch and hear. I actually like their version much better than The Kinks themselves! Watched many TH-cam videos of them singing this at various venues (and time-frames) and it's ALWAYS a wonderful TREAT! 😀 If they make an album they REALLY need to add this to it! I definitely would buy it. 😎
I’ve watched this video a lot without ear buds. Finally re watched again with good quality ear buds and WOW was I missing out! Chics bass was kicking!!! Great cover LSD
I saw this very song performed in 1980 by the kinks in a small college gym (Allentown, PA ) standing right below Ray Davies on stage (about 6 - 8 feet away). On the other side of the stage saw his brother lean down to take a hit from a joint that a fan reached up and offered. Great Song.
Oi! What was not to like about their version of "Take on me"? That song only made it in the charts because of the video, which was a totally new medium then. But the song itself? Come one! Lake Street Dive brought it in a way that I want to hear it again, the first time ever....
These people are good enough to warrant some further investigation. They killed it on this cover of one of my favorite tunes from my ill-spent youth back in the early 60's...
The bass player is killing it. Outstanding.
Yes the bass player is totally killing it
Her name is Bridget and she's freaking amazing! Check out Lake Street Dive's live vid on here of " 07 Lake Street Dive 2013-08-04 Elijah" 😍
I completely agree, I just got an overwhelming chill watching her thump the living heck outta that big bass, she is a badass
i agree. I just don't understand why she waited until the first bars of the song to actually tune her bass
The answer is simple: She had to hear, it was out of tune before she could know it needed tuning. 😏@@TimBrown-e9l
2023, I can’t believe lake street isn’t any more well known than they are by now. Love em.
Rachel Price is doing g a master jazz class. I think the right people know. But you’re right, we need more exposure for artists like this xx
I love it, cheers from Germany 😀🎉🍷🍀
Love it too
@@riabouma9317 cheers to you from germany 😀🍷🎉❤️🎶😀🍀
Just saw them on CBS Saturday morning last Saturday. 6-23-24
I am reduced to tears. Every time. Rachael Price is the best singer I know today.
Instead they feed us terrible music. It sickens me.
I am in 100% agreement!!!
What’s great band. Together 20 years, I believe!!!
An example of a good mixer here. All their voices and instruments are flowing through the way they're supposed to. Love it.
Best cover I’ve ever heard! Such talented musicians all around
You’re not experienced in cover versions then. This was awful, not the musicians but the ding choice. It’s not for them.
@@rickb.4168 You're not experienced in anything

wow I'm 68 and I tuned in because it was "Lola" and was also blown away, for the reasons you express. great!!
Great band huh?
Great music. BTW I'm 78-1/2.
Stunning is the right word. 70 yo.
Ok, I'm 72, and the lead singer looks like my next ex wife. What a beauty with a voice like raw honey.
So rare to find an excellent drummer who will say I can do this on just a tambourine.

Nail on the head. They were so great to have in. So passionate about the music and genuinely fun to be around. Thanks for watching!
Woooooord
That bass player kicks ass
And she's singing harmony at the same time. Great!
Amen to that! Bridget plays with abandon and her pipes are fine too. Having said that, the ''Good Kisser'' video shows she's got a killer figure.
Hats off to whoever's behind that camera. Really good shots
Thanks!
Funny, I thought the opposite. No offense 90.9, but the camera doesn't have to be moving every second. Nonetheless, great job capturing their sound live.
It's shot at the best radio station in KC. 90.9, the Bridge. Awesome studio with great support by musicians and supporting members
Thanks for the feedback!
Agree...it has the feel of "The Weight" from The Last Waltz.
I can’t get enough of this song.
A stripped down, fearless cover. Simply outstanding.
I have a terrible urge to dust off my bell bottoms and go take a walk...
The 1.1K that disliked this.... what is your problem? This is amazing!
Silly sods .... my first name Garrick!🎵🎶🎵🎶🎶
Bunch of British Cigarettes
Singer both vocally/physically is a cross between Joni Mitchell & Carly Simon, doesn't get any better! great job everyone. :-)
I watch this every few weeks, ever since it came out, such a great song, beautifully performed
Great !
She's beautiful ,she rocks this song 👍
This diehard Kinks fan is totally blown away by this cover. Great vocals, band, footage & sound. WOW!
I knew there were a few of you who would watch this!
Being a Kinks fan since ‘64 ( yeah, I’m 73 now) and seeing them live about 8 times- first in 68 I totally love this cover: the band is outstanding!
@@ronfisher5259 The first time I ever heard the Kinks was via radio. I'm 66 now but I still remember it stopped me in my tracks. I think the Dum Dum Girls did a great cover of this iconic song. Greetings from Oklahoma. You/your loved ones, please be safe in these weirdly unsettling times.
Her voice aggravatingly sharp
@@alfching2499
Question: Do you mean timbre of her voice is sharp OR that the pitch of her voice is sharp?
(I dispute either one.)
Wow - that bassist is incredible
Came here to say just that.
Toward the end, the bass work is the star of the show.
And what a damned show.
You seem to be in need of some exposure to great bass players. Try Jaco Pastorius on for size. He's wearing the red shirt and white pants. th-cam.com/video/DHQfIwyEVzY/w-d-xo.html
Equal parts playing the bass and dancing with it.
The first time I ever actually heard one of those upright basses. It always gets drowned out in orchestras.
I’ve been playing the bass for 43 years this year and this is some of the best and most subtle bass I’ve ever heard, it both mirrors the original line yet adds so much more.
Bridget is freakin' incredible.
you didn't say if you played an upright, fretless, acoustic bass....if you did you know just how difficult it is to master the instrument --- Bridget is a true master
Check out Bridget’s playing on their cover of Rich girl. It’s incredible.
Totally agree with you.
👍👍👍
I love her voice
It would have been a hit 40 years ago
I am 77yrs and this video just stumbled on me some kind of mysterious way. I am happy it did. What a great performance. Thank you..
Meme age et meme circonstance d ecoute mais quand meme une prefetence
Pour les kinks
An amazing band. Every one of them a musician.
^ Whut she said.
Man that was refreshing. Young people playing old instruments in every single person with a smile on their face. That is the way our world should be everyday. Beautifully done.
Bass player is outa sight
My mom was named Lola. Four kids on her own, She is my hero!!!
Go mom!!
Can’t stop,listening to this. What a great cover by extraordinarily talented musicians!!!!
The Best!!!👍🎶👏
Kudos to the audio engineer. Perfectly blended allowing you to hear every sound.
Thanks for listening!
It's the bridge man. Of course it's perfect.
I agree completely.
Loved this by the stones but this is awsome
Please release an album of covers. I’m phenomenally impressed by your music, and covers like this take the original to new heights.
They did back in 2012, it is called Fun Machine and has five fantastic covers. And, their covers are all over TH-cam. Check out their live cover of Rich Girl from Pickathon, 2013.
Saw them do Steely Dan's, Dirty Work. Amaze
I’m not the worlds most physical guy, but her voice nearly knocks me down. Her voice is powerful.
Watch and listen to her cover of white rabbit. It's a eargasm. I promise. I've seen it so many times. Just gets better each time. Beautiful voice.
Just found this gem last and can’t stop watching. This is amazing. I keep coming back to these 2 things:
I love that Rachael belts out the opening lines with her hands on her hips like this is nothing.
How is this band not bigger??
Almost 70 here! So many memories to this song and you guys are AWESOME!! Thank you!
Cheers 🍻 Thanks for listening!
I love cover songs and by far this is one of the best cover songs I've ever hear
I've played this video probably 50 times and it still gives me goose bumps. It was the first Lake Street Dive song I remember hearing. Now I have multiple albums, have seen them in concert twice (with more to come I hope). Excellent band.
More! Loved the bass.
What an impressive group of outstanding musicians, and that voice, forget about it.
Iowa City proud. Bridget rocks.
I have a bit of a crush on miss Bridget. Is there hope?
and London proud 😎
you guys hit this one out of the park
Sure did!
Kinks. one of the most underrated bands (At the time). Just starting to get the recognition they deserve. Waterloo sunset. Classic!
I am 73 and a fan of Lake Street Dive. This rendition of one of my favorite songs which I saw the brothers do in person is magnificent. If you aren't familiar with this band I would suggest to look up their music and enjoy. I saw this band one time in Oakland, CA. As you will see with their videos they are all live and in one take they were great.
Are you kidding me?! Ever from the start, and all these years since, still brings shivers, every single time! Love the voice and the posture!
Took a classic song and made it their own. And now its timeless. Thank you. Well done.
Amazing. I don't have words for how good they are all on this song.
I love the youtube algorithm sometimes. I would have never searched for this song or band but there it was in my recommended videos..... what a voice!! Ill be checking them out for sure.
50 years and still going !!!!!
The bassist is absolutely amazing
They are all great
I LOST YOU!! LSDive helped get me through covid lockdowns. Love the Kinks, Lola and Lake Street Dive! My old band used to do Come Dancing...oh, the days.
This is one of those videos I keep coming back to.
Thanks for the music ,!
Amazing! After a bad day at work, this band raises my spirits!
I’ve seen this band 3 times. Once in Atlanta and twice in Athens GA They are amazing.
I love it when young bands pay tribute to the roots. Fantastic.
I've never heard of Lake Street Dive before, but I'm impressed by the singer; she has a great voice!
killer version of a classic.. They all knocked it out of the park... Rachel always kills it.!!!
I've adored this song for 50 years. This is one of the best cover versions I've encountered.
We agree!
WORD!
I’ve seen them 5 times & I can say they are the MOST Fun you will EVER have at a concert!
Great job! Thanks for posting!
Amazing version of a Rock classic. The amount of talent in this band is stunning!
This is a really good cover
Saw the mighty Kinks 2 times live. In the days long gone and this is the best cover of a great song. Attack sureness decision competence. Are all there. Bravo!
awesome cover ....... very beautiful voice and great band backing up!!!!
Four fortunate souls collided then colluded their talents. We who listen are blessed. I have completely changed my levels
of expectation with all others
for whom the title band is the mantra. No Jive, it's Lake Street Dive! Who cares whos second.
No matter how good this is, you’ll never beat the original!
I just...dont have enough beautiful words for this group. been watching them for years. they are stunning.
Thanks for watching! They are great!
+90.9 The Bridge Thanks for being pros and making this beautiful video with the perfect shots and balanced audio! :)
These folks are a knockout! So much talent and too much fun for words. All their shows are supurb.
This is absolutely incredible.
merci de faire exister ce genre de chanson par votre sublime interprétation , qui remplie notre coeur d'émotions et de souvenirs jusqu'à la dernière minute de notre vie, bravo bravo bravo.
I love the sound of the bass on this version!
The best cover of this classic I have EVER heard--George Camp-Webster NY...
I have never commented on a video but I have to say this girl was born to sing this song and the bassist is from another world!
Omg her voice is absolutely amazing
I too am older (75) and this is....GOOD!
I love that voice...i,m down on my knees......
No matter which cover they do...I'm always asking myself, if this version is better than the original.
Somehow they manage to capture the essence of the song, and still make it their own. Amazing!
Super talented and their own! No doubt about that.
Her voice is incredible and they will be very famous one day. They are unique
EarOntheTracks I think the same thing. I freaking love every single thing they do... They are just incredibly talented.
“Take on me “ cover is how I found Lake Street Dive . Instant fan 💥
Same! =P

God I have such a crush on this entire band.
Love this band! Got on my Radar a few yrs back!❤
Perfect...
Just... perfect!!
Congrats to “The Team” (in capital letters, definitely)
👏👏👏
I’ve watched this video a lot without ear buds. Finally re watched again with good quality ear buds and WOW was I missing out! Chics bass was kicking!!! Great cover LSD
the girl on the double bass really kills it!! awesome 🙂
unbelievably wonderful
I saw this very song performed in 1980 by the kinks in a small college gym (Allentown, PA ) standing right below Ray Davies on stage (about 6 - 8 feet away). On the other side of the stage saw his brother lean down to take a hit from a joint that a fan reached up and offered. Great Song.
They’ve all got a great after-hours-really-doing-it-like-we-want vibe. That said, so good to hear female voices with some guts and soul to them.
They do sound like they enjoy what they are doing to the fullest! Thanks for watching!
It is good to hear a strong female voice again. I grew up hearing Linda Ronstat and Grace Slick.
Ha that was great, bass has it man, got that groove swing in that tone....
Really lovely version. It is brilliant that classic numbers have reached real longevity now as a new generation enjoy and record them as standards.
Great job. Timeless song.
I just absolutely love this cover. Dang that girl can sing. Well done kids.
I love her voice 😍
This is a great version of a classic song.
Sure is!
This is a wonderful cover of one of the Greatest Pop-Rock groups of all time, the KINKS...
the chills don't stop . . . dynamite rendition of classic rock power-rock song
It helps when you have a really good song to cover, big hit when I was teenager 👌👏💃🏻
My new fave group.
So glad I clicked on this after your version of A-Ha’s Take On Me....you redeemed yourselves...loved this version of Lola!!
Oi! What was not to like about their version of "Take on me"? That song only made it in the charts because of the video, which was a totally new medium then. But the song itself? Come one! Lake Street Dive brought it in a way that I want to hear it again, the first time ever....
Fantastic sound. Great voices. Love Lake Street Dive

th-cam.com/video/NUYxQXST6iE/w-d-xo.html
Dayum !!!! My new favorite band, took a Kink's classic and made it their own
Insane production value. Great cover, guys !
Such a dynamic band...great sensibility and taste. Love these cats.
This was smooooth. Really great to listen to a group of musicians who truly know their stuff, and do an absolute classic the justice it deserves.
I love Bridget Kearney. She moves this music forward.
They should have views in the millions.
Directly fell in love with the singer...
By far this is the greatest cover song ever it totally blows away the original song
Kinks are better. Solid version
I could listen to them all day. Very uplifting sound.
