Susannah's Still Alive

"Susannah's Still Alive" is a song by Dave Davies, released for his second solo single. The recording featured all of the Kinks' members as his backing band. It was a hit (peaking at #20 in the UK)[1] but it did not live up to the expectations of Davies' last single "Death of a Clown", which was a Top 5 hit.[1] It failed to chart in the US, but was a significant success in Europe, reaching #10 in the Netherlands, #27 in Germany, #18 in Belgium and #18 in Sweden.[1] Although it was never featured on an LP, its B-side "Funny Face" was included on the Kinks' 1967 album Something Else by the Kinks.

gollark: Full or semi is probably okay.
gollark: Also, do you really need 1TB+4TB? For the same price you could probably get 2TB of pure SSD storage.
gollark: That might be underestimating it a bit, but it's probably fine to go for the "estimated wattage" plus a decently big margin.
gollark: I would also recommend asking on r/buildapc.
gollark: A ~600W bronze unit is probably okay.
