When David Gilmour of Pink Floyd was asked in an interview if he could name any song he wishes he might have created, he replied it would be The Kinks' Waterloo Sunset, and went on to praise the song. www.songfacts.com /detail.php?id=4147

As Ray Davies admitted in an interview, "The Lyrics could be better" but they were "heartfelt and sincere" and "they dovetail with the music perfectly."

And to paraphrase an old comment "if at 20 you have no love for God, for God's people, for God's creation, you have no heart, if at 40 you're not a conservative, you have no sense." But heart comes first.

Till the End of the Day (1965) by Ray Davies
Released November 1965, it peaked in UK charts at number 8

Baby, I feel good
From the moment I rise
Feel good from morning
Till the end of the day

Yeah, you and me
We live this life
From when we get up
Till we go sleep at night
You and me we're free
We do as we please, yeah
From morning, till the end of the day

Yeah, I get up
And I see the sun up
And I feel good, yeah
'Cause my life has begun
You and me we're free
We do as we please, yeah
From morning, till the end of the day
