The Pretenders - I Go To Sleep

Cover of the Ray Davies original. I've got a few different cover versions of this song in my playlist. Sia did a brilliant version but The Pretenders cover is my favourite. Ray Davies is an incredible songwriter.

Chris, some years ago I was sitting in the Driftwood Spars pub, right by the sea in St. Agnes and was having a really good chat about music (it's a well known music venue) to some stranger sat at the bar.

Only after he left the barman asked me if I knew who he was, I said I'd never met him before. Turned out it was Dave Davies, younger brother of Ray! He apparently lives/lived nearby.

Small world.

Regards,

Jay.

That's a really cool story, Jay. I love The Kinks.
