"I'm Not Like Everybody Else"...one of the most overlooked Kink's songs of the '60's. I forgot all about it 'till I went to a show in 1978 and saw a punk band called The Hitmakers perform a perfect rendition. The Kinks rule!

You saw The Hitmakers with Ron Silva?! I never got a chance to see them.

That's my favorite Kinks song of all. The Chocolate Watchband version is great too.

The song was used on one of the episodes of the Sopranos to close out the show. It was a live version and to this day stands out as one of the all time greats. The kinks themselves performed.
