From ANDRAS JONES: This week, inspired by our pals at Wild Honey, we decided to do our own synchronistic Kinks tribute. This one features performances by three of our favorite guests from Pop Oracles past; COLLEEN GREEN, BART DAVENPORT & WILLIE WISELY. They perform the Kinksian answers. Over the course of the episode we take questions from MARC MILLER and MIRIAM LINNA of the WATERLOO UNDERGROUND Kinks broadcast, comedian JOE KWACZALA, CHRISTIAN GISBORN of Velvet Starlings, Kinky Horror star DIANA PRINCE and LOREN GOLD of The Who. I even play one of the Pop Oracle answers. This segment features my story about attending the Wild Honey Kinks tribute and missing the great JOHN EASDALE doing “Shangri-La” in the interest of bringing a little Nilssonesque world peace to my own little corner of the pop universe. Luckily, we can all watch John do my favorite Kink song in the video below.
POP ORACLE Song of The Day (May 9, 2019): QUE VERDE “Badly Drawn”
Dedicated Follower of Fashion
They seek him here, they seek him there
His clothes are loud, but never square
It will make or break him so he’s got to buy the best
‘Cause he’s a dedicated follower of fashion
And when he does his little rounds
‘Round the boutiques of London Town
Eagerly pursuing all the latest fads and trends
‘Cause he’s a dedicated follower of fashion
Oh yes he is (oh yes he is), oh yes he is (oh yes he is)
He thinks he is a flower to be looked at
And when he pulls his frilly nylon panties right up tight
He feels a dedicated follower of fashion
Oh yes he is (oh yes he is), oh yes he is (oh yes he is)
There’s one thing that he loves and that is flattery
One week he’s in polka-dots, the next week he is in stripes
‘Cause he’s a dedicated follower of fashion
They seek him here, they seek him there
In Regent Street and Leicester Square
Everywhere the Carnabetian army marches on
Each one an dedicated follower of fashion
Oh yes he is (oh yes he is), oh yes he is (oh yes he is)
His world is built ’round discotheques and parties
This pleasure-seeking individual always looks his best
‘Cause he’s a dedicated follower of fashion
Oh yes he is (oh yes he is), oh yes he is (oh yes he is)
He flits from shop to shop just like a butterfly
In matters of the cloth he is as fickle as can be
‘Cause he’s a dedicated follower of fashion
He’s a dedicated follower of fashion
He’s a dedicated follower of fashion
