Susannah's Still Alive

“Susannah’s Still Alive” (“Suzanah’s Still Alive” on the original UK release) 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) but it did not live up to the expectations of Davies’ last single “Death of a Clown”, which was a Top 5 hit. 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. 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. Although all original UK singles used the spelling ‘Suzanah’, in many other countries and on later compilation albums Suzannah or Susannah was used.
