}} "Catch Me Now I'm Falling" is a song written by Ray Davies and first released by The Kinks as the second track on their 1979 album ''Low Budget''. Written as a criticism of America's allies, the song saw single release in the United States only. The song has since made appearances on compilations and live albums. ==Background==
Like many of the other tracks on "Low Budget", "Catch Me Now I'm Falling" addresses then-current events. In this case the song shows lead singer Ray Davies portraying America in its time of need, with the lyrics criticizing both the U.S. and its allies that refuse to help it. Author Nick Hasted describes it as sounding as if "it could be a distress call from the last embattled radio station in an occupied land."〔 Hasted also notes that it invoked memories of the United States' aid to Europe via the Marshall Plan to criticize countries that were not helping the country in its time of need.〔 While another song on ''Low Budget'' invokes DC Comics hero Superman, "Catch Me Now I'm Falling" calls to Marvel Comics hero Captain America.〔〔 The riff is similar to those on The Rolling Stones' "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" and "Jumpin' Jack Flash." The song includes a saxophone solo that ''Billboard Magazine'' described as "hot," as well as a guitar solo by Dave Davies.〔
