I believe that everybody's a celebrity
And we all got personality
And individuality

We all need a script
And an audience to play to
No matter what you do
Or who you are
Everybody's a star
Everybody's a star

Sounds like Ric Ocasek
Dennis March 12, 2008 23:42
Sounds like Patty doesn't know her music.
Dave March 13, 2008 18:02
Take it easy on Patty, Dennis, but you are correct. No one sounds like the Kinks, except the Kinks.
SJ March 13, 2008 19:47
Definitely like the music! :]

I thought it was David Bowie...
Karl March 16, 2008 18:27
I thought it sounded like Bowie but I knew it wasn't, makes sense it was The Kinks

I'm not convinced that it is the original recording, sounds like a remix with the handclaps and percussion up front.

It does sound like Bowie, but then he and Ray Davies were kinda from the same school.
