Every review I've read of the song has been really good, but I don't get why it keeps getting compared to The Kinks. OK the vibe is the same as Sunny Afternoon, but to me the song is pure La's. Parts of it remind me of Failure, and the intro is Clean Prophet. Just annoys me how critics jump on bandwagons.

It's probably for the pure and perfect pop vibe....and the comtemplative lyrics perhaps??....and the solo may have something to do as well...I just can't pin it

Hmmmmm.... yeah I agree, I don't think TIOBI sounds like The Kinks at all... If ANY song off of DBTT sounded like The Kinks AT ALL I would say that it would be Meaning Of Soul = Early Kinks... sounds like something that Ray Davies might write.

I agree with Noel, i think it sounds just like The Kinks doing the La's...or the La's doing The Kinks. ;D The best thing they have done in years, in my opinion. Infact i'm listening to the it now, from the Manchester gig.
