"(Girl!) You Really Got Me" was first done by the British pop/rock band The Kinks (Ray Davies on vocals). Van Halen ("Diamond" David Lee Roth) did an impressive redo of the song in the early 80s.

The Original was by the Kinks
Notable covers have been by Van Halen and Robert Palmer. Palmer's version was radically re-arranged.
