One of my favorite tunes from one of my favorite song writers. Depending on which article you choose to believe Ray Davies references either Terrance Stamp and Julie Christie or Ray's Sister and an imaginary boyfriend.

I think I'm gonna give it a listen.

Thanks for a great essay on a great song. Ray Davies is an oft overlooked master of the craft. The Kinks always were in the shadow of The Beatles.
