************************************************

Kinks ›Lola

I met her in a club down in old soho
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry-cola [lp version:
Coca-cola]
C-o-l-a cola
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said lola
L-o-l-a lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola

Well I’m not the world’s most physical guy
But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine
Oh my lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola
Well I’m not dumb but I can’t understand
Why she walked like a woman and talked like a man
Oh my lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola

Well we drank champagne and danced all night
Under electric candlelight
She picked me up and sat me on her knee
And said dear boy won’t you come home with me
Well I’m not the world’s most passionate guy
But when I looked in her eyes well I almost fell for my lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola
Lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola

I pushed her away
I walked to the door
I fell to the floor
I got down on my knees
Then I looked at her and she at me

Well that’s the way that I want it to stay
And I always want it to be that way for my lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo lola
Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
It’s a mixed up muddled up shook up world except for lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo lola

Well I left home just a week before
And I’d never ever kissed a woman before
But lola smiled and took me by the hand
And said dear boy I’m gonna make you a man

Well I’m not the world’s most masculine man
But I know what I am and I’m glad I’m a man
And so is lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola
Lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola lo-lo-lo-lo lola

====================================

RAY DAVIES IS `THE TOURIST`

New EP Released September 26th

Ray releases a brand new E.P entitled ‘The Tourist’ on V2 Records, September 26th.

‘The Tourist’ is the first taste from his eagerly anticipated first
ever solo studio album ‘Other People’s Lives‘, which is due for
release early next year following a major UK tour this autumn.

The highly collectible 4-track EP is a veritable Ray Davies masterclass in songwriting and features:

• The Tourist – Recorded in London, February 2003, this is one of many stand-out songs from his forthcoming solo LP ‘Other People’s Lives’. Combining Davies’ distinctively emotive vocals wrapped around astutely observed lyrics, it purrs addictively with his heady,unmistakable style.

• Yours Truly, Confused N10 – The first of the three bonus tracks, this was originally recorded with Jools Holland and his Rhythm & Blues Orchestra in 2002.

• London Song – The original ‘London Song’ appeared on the
Storyteller collection of live & recorded acoustic tracks and spoken dialogue – an edited version of his storyteller show. This version has been remixed especially for this EP.

• Storyteller - First recorded in 1998 and released as part of his ‘Storyteller’ collection alongside ‘London Song’.

The lead track will be initially released as download only, but the entire EP will also be available on CD and sold at the tour venues.

Opening in York on September 25th, Ray Davies will play 17 dates – including a show at London’s Royal Albert Hall on September 28th –before closing in Oxford on October 16th. See http://www.raydavies.info/ontourframe.html for full details.

Tickets are on sale now priced at £25/22.50 except London
(£37.50/27.50/23.50) Glasgow (£20/18) Liverpool (£24.50/19.50) and Manchester (£21.50/19.50/15).

Ray Davies shot in leg

Kinks' Ray Davies shot in robbery attempt

By KEVIN MCGILL
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

NEW ORLEANS -- Singer-songwriter Ray Davies of the celebrated British
rock
band the Kinks was shot in the leg while chasing thieves who snatched a
purse from a woman he was with, police said Monday. He was not
seriously
injured.

Police said Davies, 59, and the woman were walking near the edge of the
French Quarter when the shooting happened around 8:30 p.m. Sunday.
Davies
was treated and released at a hospital, said Capt. Marlon Defillo, a
police
spokesman.

One suspect was captured within hours and another person was being
sought.
The woman was not hurt. Police would not release her identity.

The shooting happened blocks away from Bourbon Street, which was awash
with
people in town for Sunday night's Sugar Bowl, the national college
championship game between LSU and Oklahoma. Police were stationed on
every
corner of the area and were able to respond quickly to the shooting,
Defillo
said.

The Kinks, part of the 1960s British invasion, had a string of hits
including "You Really Got Me," "Sunny Afternoon," "All Day and All of
the
Night" and "Lola." Davies founded the band, known for its hard-edged,
guitar-driven sound and witty lyrics, with his brother Dave.

Last week, Davies received royal honors in London. Along with
singer-guitarist Eric Clapton, he was named a Commander of the Order of
the
British Empire at a ceremony on New Year's Eve.

The shooting site is a largely residential area on the border of the
French
Quarter and the Faubourg Marigny area.
