	From the Magazine | Arts 5 Voices You Need To Hear By JOSH TYRANGIEL SUBSCRIBE TO TIMEPRINTE-MAILMORE BY AUTHOR Posted Sunday, Jan. 22, 2006 RAY DAVIES OTHER PEOPLE'S LIVES The voice of the ex-Kinks front man, 61, isn't what it used to be, but his pen is still sharp. Davies writes a bit about New Orleans, the city where he has lived (and was shot after chasing a mugger in 2004) for most of the past five years. Songs like The Tourist ("I'm just another tourist, checking out the slums"), written pre-Katrina, are well observed, but his strength is less as a broad social critic than as the creator of mini domestic dramas. Creatures of Little Faith is a barbed story of domestic misery, while Next Door Neighbour is reminiscent of the Kinks' Well Respected Man.
