The Kinks

The Kinks

The Kinks fue un grupo musical británico formado en Londres en los años 60 por los hermanos Ray y Dave Davies. Desde sus primeros tiempos estaban muy influidos por el Rock and roll y el Rhythm & blues americanos. En 1964 consiguieron su primer nº 1 en las listas británicas con "You Really Got Me", su canción más emblemática, dándose a conocer como parte de la Invasión Británica en Estados Unidos (nº 7 en Billboard) Esta canción ha permanecido como una de las más significativas de la década de los 60 y su sonido es considerado precursor del Hard rock. La evolución como compositor de Ray Davies, llevó al grupo a una segunda época con un sonido mucho más "británico" y Pop, que les proporcionó éxitos como ?Sunny Afternoon? o ?Waterloo Sunset?. Sus trabajos en estos años han ejercido gran influencia en movimientos tan distintos como el Glam Rock, el Punk, o la New Wave , a pesar de que, en términos de popularidad y apoyo de su discográfica, siempre estuvieron a la sombra de The Beatles, The Rolling Stones o The Who.

Letra de Skin And Bone
Fat Flabby Annie was incredibly big
She weighed just about sixteen stone
And then a fake dietician went and put her on a diet
Now she looks like skin and bone
She looks like skin and bone

Do the meditation and yoga
And she's thrown away the good food guide
And she's given up the alcohol and pizzas
And the pies and now she looks as if she's ready to die,
You can't see her walk by

Don't eat no mashed potatoes,
Don't eat no buttered scones
Stay away from carbohydrates
You're gonna look like skin and bone.

Living on the edge of starvation
And she says she's got no appetite
And her father and her mother
And her sisters and her brothers
Couldn't see her when she walked by
You can't see her walk by.

She don't eat no mashed potatoes,
She don't eat no buttered scones
Stay away from carbohydrates
You're gonna look like skin and bone.

She used to be so cuddly,
She used to be so fat,
But oh what a sin cos she's oh so thin
That she lost all the friends that she had,
She looks like skin and bone

If you look flabby
And you feel overweight,
And you wanna lose a couple of stone,
Take a crash course diet do your daily exercises
And you'll look like skin and bone.

Come on rattle them bones,
Put your hands up to the ceiling,
Bend your hips and touch your toes,
Do your daily exercises,
You're gonna look like skin and bone,

Don't eat no mashed potatoes,
Don't eat no buttered scones
Don't eat no carbohydrates
You're gonna look like skin and bone
