Friday Night Videos

When people ask me why I love the Kinks so much, Celluloid Heroes is one of the songs I point to. Simply beautiful. Sad and elegant, more than a little nostalgic. I remember watching this performance on Jay Leno back in '93, when the Kinks were on the show promoting their "Phobia" album. Their rendition of "Hatred (A Duet)" was somewhat disappointing, but this song here converted my City Editor at the paper I was working for at the time into a Kinks fan on the spot.



Previously on Friday Night Videos... Peter Gabriel.

Now Playing: Ray Davies Other People's Lives
