i remember seeing a interview with Davy Jones RIP, who said the reason why people love the Monkees...its part of our childhood. This song really sums up what I want to remember about life and the Monkees...having fun, and as they said in their own song..." were too busy singing to put anybody down." RIP Davy, Peter, and Mike. sweet memories Thanks John James Minster for this video. lets all remember the fun times. I like to believe that Davy, Peter, and Mike are up in the big Music Hall in the sky having tireless Jam sessions with John Lennon, George Harrison, Jimi Hendrix, Chuck Berry, Elvis..i think you get the idea.. I better stay good so i can go up there for those sessions when my time comes..The sad part is missing the greats and I do claim one injustice how a band quintuple Platinum sang their own songs, and not inducted in the hall of fame....that should be considered a crime in my opinion.
I agree! To me, the best Monkees song, and I always loved Peter's part the most; emotive, made the song his own. To hear and watch him do it in person brought great closure to a lifetime of that song playing in my head.
No dry eyes here. I've been connected to this song since 1967. I was only 6 years old but Monkee music was continuously played in my house, not to mention watching them on TV. My older sisters had all the albums which I inherited until I was old enough to buy my own copies, etc. I was happy to have seen them a few times in concert, especially when they sang this song with Davy. Definitely one of my all time favorites of theirs. Thanks for keeping it alive guys!
When I was a kid -- I always wanted to be Peter Tork--when I watched him I noticed that he always wore his belt buckle on his left hip----this was to keep the buckle from scratching the back of his guitar--years later i still do the same thing as tribute to one of my boy hood heroes. Never forget these guys.
So hard to watch now that Peter is gone too. I can't imagine growing up without The Monkees in my life. The show, the music, just everything. They will both be sorely missed for whatever time I have left here...
This is one of their best songs ever! To see Micky turn to watch Davy on the screen broke my heart. Thank you ❤️ RIP DAVY PETER AND MIKE
This is so sweet, and watching Micky looking back at the photos of Davy makes me think how sad he must be now missing Peter too.
From a Band that wasn't a "real" Band, they changed the face of music forever. So much talent on 1 stage. i love you Monkees

To the Monkees Thank You for your first class contribution to the music

We love you Peter Tork. RIP.
thank you . very underrated song.
Goodnight Peter...beautiful song which still chimes 40 years after I first heard it x
I was there I cried when they did this

I was about to start crying;( this song is so relevant for our screwed up world . They still sound great.
So hard to watch now that Peter is gone too. I can't imagine growing up without The Monkees in my life. The show, the music, just everything. They will both be sorely missed for whatever time I have left here...
Could somebody play this for about 24 hours so it will be heard? So much truth in this song that we need to be aware of and to remember.
I am crying, I love this song, so true then and now, thank you for sharing Davey's voice!!! Miss you Peter too...Mickey, keep gong!!!
