You Really Got Me [SEP] Live history
Prior to its release, the Kinks performed "You Really Got Me" in some of their early concerts. It was a crowd favourite, with Ray Davies later claiming to feel a connection with the crowd as he performed the song. Ray later said, "Our success came from playing [the song] live. When we played 'You Really Got Me' people actually took notice. They realised we had something original." The Kinks continued to perform successfully for over 30 years through many musical styles, but "You Really Got Me" remained a mainstay in concert. During some shows, the song was played in a medley with its follow-up single "All Day and All of the Night," while in 1977, a performance on "Saturday Night Live" featured a four-song medley of "You Really Got Me", "All Day and All of the Night", "A Well Respected Man", and "Lola".
