#lola cherry cola

[jack-a-lass]

The Kinks engineered my brain with Lola and now wheneve I drink cherry cola cruisers I think about fucking a trans girl

#cherry cola is not common where I live #but I got a four pack of black cherry cola cruisers the other day #and when I drink them Lola starts playing in my head

[gerardpilled]

do you think when lana del rey said her pussy tastes like cherry cola she was making a danger days reference

Had to look it up to confirm the lyric is actually “tastes like pepsi cola” but yeah sure whatever you might be right

#joke #bigger question is Cherri cola a reference to Lola by the kinks

[lovely-v]

hearing a woman cover Lola by the Kinks >>>

#veesaysthings #spotify suggested the cover by The Raincoats to me and OUGHAHAOU #the amount of gender that song has when a lady is singing it is insane #and none of the pronouns are changed! despite the fact that Coca Cola is inexplicably changed to cherry cola ? #'i'm not the world's most masculine man but i'm glad i'm a man and so's lola'

[stylecouncil]

I almost was like “come on we’ve all heard the single version of Lola with the cherry cola substitution” but then I was like wait maybe we all haven’t

[fagsex]

there is something to be said about how gerard clearly reflects himself in lola lovesu and they're definitely some sort of persona of them and lola is a hot pink alien who doesnt understand gender but loves everybody and is so loud and fuzzy and how one of the killjoys that is likely based off himself is cherri cola

and it's harder to tell with cherri bc he doesnt look like the typical gerard insert but is clearer if you reflect him in gerards more recent self and his self by the end of mcr especially when you compare the past and present Gerard in terms of mcr and also how in the hit song 'Lola' by the kinks, a song gerard most definitely knows, a story is told about a trans woman finding love with someone who loves her for who she is, no matter how shes presenting or how weird it may seem

and how in the song references are made to cherry cola (bc of a copyright issue) and the most popular version of the song mentions cherry cola and cherri colas killjoy mask is well

and there is definitely something to be said but 🤷‍♂️

Los Kinks tuvieron movida en 1970 con la inclusión de las palabras “Coca Cola” en su legendaria “Lola”. Sabido es que en su versión single las tuvieron que sustituir por las socorridas “Cherry Cola” porque la BBC no permitía que se citaran marcas en las canciones que emitía. La ”versión cocacola” se grabó antes y se editó en el LP “Lola Vs. The Powerman and the Moneygoround”. Esa no fue la razón por la cual The Who no incluyeron tres años antes en “The Who Sell Out” un jingle comercial del famoso refresco. Completo a los cuatro grandes de la British Invasion con el breve y repetitivo “Coke After Coke“, que no figuró en el LP original pero sí en dos tomas diferentes en posteriores reediciones expandidas de elepé en CD. Lleva por toda letra: “Coke after Coke after Coke after Coca-Cola”. El vídeo es un montaje posterior, no un anuncio de la época.

haunted places

Will doesn’t usually think of himself as a nostalgic person. He’s the kind of guy who moves forward. Looking back doesn’t do him any good.

And then, every summer, he goes back to Michigan.

And then, every summer, he goes on a tour of haunted places.

He doesn’t mean to do it. He just can’t help it. There’s nothing wrong with returning to the same place as long as you’re a different person than you were the last time you were there. That’s what it’s like to go back home and visit the places he left behind. The same place with different hair, different skin.

Yet, no matter what, still haunted.

He takes Emma for lunch at Lola’s Diner. He tells her it used to be Abby’s, and maybe she remembers that. But she doesn’t remember it like he does. She can’t remember it like he does, and so, she can’t care like he does, either. Emma (like her big sister before her) mostly cares that because Lola is Daniel’s little sister, she’s like family, and she gives them free fries whenever they walk through the door. But she doesn’t know that when Will guides them over to a table in the corner, he’s guiding them to his favorite spot: the spot where Sam introduced him to The Who; where Sadie made Daniel laugh so hard he snorted Coca-Cola through his nose and inspired years’ worth of puns; where Lucy kissed him like a maraschino cherry. Emma doesn’t know that Will feels numb when he sits in this chair. It’s the same chair. It’s the same chair.

He takes her to the dollar theater after lunch. He tells her that the interior hasn’t changed much since he was a kid in the 70s and 80s, down to the payphone and the Pac-Man machine. But she doesn’t know that this is the place where he, Sam, and Daniel saw Star Wars fifteen times in a single summer. She doesn’t know that this is the place where Sam decided to turn his bag of gummy bears into the cast of an imaginary soap opera. And there’s no way she can know just how much Will loses his appetite before the previews even begin.

They drive past Maggie and Mike Doyle’s house on the way back to the Callaghans’. It’s on the way, and they can’t help it. Of course, it’s not Maggie and Mike’s house anymore. It hasn’t been since Sam’s funeral. Everything about it looks different … except the concrete leading up to the porch. As far as Will can see, there’s still something written in the very corner of the cement: Sam, 1974. He’d written it with a stick in the summer after the first grade when Maggie and Mike were getting new pavement, and he was bored of his mind waiting for it to dry. He’s still there. He’s still in the house, long after dying, long after it doesn’t belong to the Doyles anymore.

These are haunted places. And if Will’s learned anything from cable TV, it’s that to stop the haunting, you have to let go of the spirit.

But what if that’s the problem?

What if you don’t want to let go of the spirit? And what if it doesn’t want to let go of you? What if you’re not done being the spirit’s best friend? What if it’s not done with you?

Will’s not sure he ever wants to find out.

[mastermunson86]

For like an hour now I’ve had Lola by the Kinks stuck in my head and it’s all your fault for bringing up cherry coke

🎵 “I met her in a club down in old Soho,

where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry cola” 🎵

Shit now I want a cherry coke

I love cherry coke!

[thatdumbfryingpan]

So I live in rural Ireland and it gets really dark outside at night (like pitch black) so when I was little and would go to get something from the car or something at night I would get scared and call over my dog and have her walk next to me so she could “protect” me from the “monsters”, tonight I was getting something from my dads van and I said I’d call her over for old times sake so I called “Lola Lola cherry cola” bc that’s how we call her, then I remembered that she passed away this day 9 months ago and I’ve missed her every day since
