On 29 February 2012, Davy Jones was found seated in his car complaining of chest pains and having difficulty breathing. He was rushed to Hospital in Stuart, Florida where he was pronounced dead of a severe heart attack. Jones is survived by his widow, Jessica, and four daughters from previous marriages. He was one of the lead singers of the Monkees. This video is performed during the 1986 MTV Awards on stage.
I was 11 years old and I grew up with them, they opened my eyes to pop, I am very grateful, I admire them, I will never forget them, thanks for everything to the 4 of them.
Made my childhood the happiest ever! Now they make my elderly years happy. I'm first generation Monkee fan. Nearly 70 years old. Love them forever 💘
Me too!
Me too！
Couldn't have said it better! ❣️
I am 70 and still love them
Me too!
Thank you "The Monkees" for making my childhood happier and unforgettable!!!
Rest in love and peace Davy and Peter
And Michael Nesmith
So much energy and full of life. I love them all but to me Davy was the heart and soul of the group. He could sure get the crowd going! Rest In Peace Davy, Peter, and Mike. Keep strong Micky!
Born in 74.....This was the picture on my wall and ceiling too now that I think Of it.as a teenager ..I met Davy many times in my life, He was an amazing man...Always took good care of his fans....He had a big heart!!!
Lucky you meeting Davy in the past! Thanks for watching and comment!
I think about my older sister who died at 53 when I watch this video. She loved the Monkeys.
So sorry to hear that! Take care!
I thank these guys for making me happy. I'm 61 now but I definitely grew up with them and they were a huge musical influence in my life
This is a priceless A phenomenal group of guys who gave us so many great songs and GOOD TIMES. Once a Monnkees fan always a Monnkees fan. Thankyou for these incredible moments
These guys brought a lot of joy to a lot of people. Not sure what is more important than that at the end of the day.
Who wouldn't love davy..he always looked gorgeous..rip davy..will always love you
He got more handsome the older he got. Too early to die.
@@catherineferguson7646 For me,it was Peter first,then Mike,then Davy,then Micky.But they were all talented & should've made the HOF before we lost any of them.Keep rockin' Micky.RIP Davy,Peter & Mike.The Texas Prairie Chickens lurv ya.
@@susanmccormick6022 I agree with the order you put them in, but I'm still most partial to Peter. There was just something about him, still trying to figure it out. He could play classical music beautifully, turn around and act like a complete fool, then have a very intelligent conversation in an interview. He was all over the place. Still miss him (and the others, too, of course).
Great voices !!!! They blend so we'll all 4 of them. Just had to be!!!!! So gifted!!!!! Hit after hit song after song they bring the house down ! On Earth and in Heaven! Robin M. Rock on guys your what singers are all about !
My grandson was born the day Davy died. I held that baby with love and tears
They were a great band weren't they!
Certainly ! Thanks for watching and comment !
missing David and Peter,still love them all
It looks like Davy saves his energy for their concerts, when I saw them at the Greek Theater on Sept. 7, 1986 ( one day after my birthday) they were running, jumping all over the stage at times, Davy REALLY had that audience by the neck and he DOES NOT let go - takes off his white coat and throws it across the stage - running and singing "Valleri!"...
davy, your awesome voice will live forever in my heart.
I was 10 when The Monkees were on TV ! I was 11 in 1967 when I fell in love with Davy Jones ! ILl love Davy forever and ever ! IM a first generation Monkee fan too ! Micky is the only Monkee alive now as Davy died in 2012 Peter in 2019 and Mike in 2021 ! I know that Micky is missing his bandmates and friends !
I was only 12years old when I got a crash on the Monkees but the Monkees I feel for is David Thomas Jones although Mike Nesmith Peter Tork and Micky Dolzen were older than David I think that is why I had a big crush on him and this year I will be 70years old if he had lived he would I've been 6:27 alive today
@@betsyfitze9022 I was 11 when I had a crush on Davy and am 67 going on 68 years old and he would be 77 years old
1 of my fav memories of the mid to late 1960's are the Monkees.
classics are timeless 100 years could go by and it is still great.
davy,your not just a song artist but an angel sent to earth by god.
Peter was smoking 🔥here!! Love Peter so much! 😍 😢
When I watched the show as a child in the 80's, I liked Mike as he was the leader and strong. Peter reminded me of a male version of myself as I felt goofy and shy. However, I have been rediscovering them during lockdown and watching stuff I hadn't seen before. Peter was fabulous. He had such a beautiful smile. I hate thinking that he must have suffered so much when his health failed. He was very brave. RIP
I still adore Peter to this day. There was so much more to him than met the eye. He was an intellectual, but you couldn't tell because he always clowned around so much. I think it came out when he was doing his solo shows. He was very interesting to listen to. I am so sorry he's gone and hate to think he suffered. RIP you beautiful man. You will be remembered.
Davy., you are so cute, miss you like crazy, my dear friend, love you forever, you will be forever in my heart.
Davy was the best singer of the Monkees He is in a better place now.
Look at Davy sporting long hair! Love it!
He was one of the lead singers of the band. He and Micky sang most of the songs.
I remember 1986 and the rebirth of the Monkees..When I saw the tour with my 1st girlfriend(Hi Kim!),I recognized Micky and Peter instantly despite not seeing any pics of them since the 60's..But I didnt recognize Davy..He looked SO different from 60's..:)
When Davy died, my heart stopped beating...
Such a great loss he will always be missed but thankfully we have such an amazing legacy that they all lefted us for all time we are truly blessed 🤩
Just doesn't seem possible that Davy is really gone..davy I will always love you
I Miss Davy Jones
I will never stop loving you Davy....you have my heart forever
Surely! Thanks for watching!
Had pictures up all over my room as a kid from this night :) My first true love :) Davy was a doll and nice to humans...most people forget how to do this....I still smile to see his Beautiful face....I enjoyed spending time with him...he taught me a lot....RIP
Davy had a heart of gold. 💜
A fantastic group...so many memories.
Thanks for your comment! Certainly a fantastic group in the 60s!
I've read the 'Cracked' satire magazine article segment; created by John Severin, he made fun of the released recording 'Daydream Believer' just by calling it 'Doldrum Retriever.'
The trouble with the 'Cracked' satire magazine artist and authors is that, they exaggerate over something serious.
@@georgeshelton6281 Who,Davy?
@@susanmccormick6022 Well the Cracked innuendo satire magazine, artist and authors, they've made fun of the 'Monkees,' just by name calling them the donkeys. They did so, back then in 1987.
Davy Jones and David Cassidy...two heartbreakers gone😭
And my fav movie star ⭐ who passed on my birthday.
Best toe tapping song ever. Love them Monkees 💕.
Will always have a crush on Peter.
Yep. It's never going away.
In response to comment 8502. I'm almost 70 too and I'm likewise a first generation Monkees fan. I will NEVER outgrow my appeal for their music.
Davy was my true love by hey, they’re all adoreable .. love the way they’re getting into dancing! 😍
Loved Peter's Guitar Bop.
Que pena não termos mais entre nós o Davy e o Peter.
Go Davy go 'go 'go 'we love you all so much' your fans neaver forget ya! !!!!!!! Robin M.
It's great to see the Monkeys singing the songs. Love Davy and Micky outfits. Wow outstanding. Linda Hart.
I loved Peter's hippy shirts & their lovely long hair.Thats how I liked my men.Man buns r euck for me.
Yes, Davy rocked his mullet, and Peter looked wow with long hair. He'll always be my fave.
god I love them so much
So talented ❤️ 👏 ✨️ 💖 😍 🙌
Thanks! R.I.P Davy !
And Peter Tork..
LOVE IT
Aww Davy. :-(
Great performance 👏, thank you for sharing this. God Bless You and stay safe 🙏 ❤️
RIP Davy and Peter
Yes , I also love the TV show .
Gotta love Davy's mullet! I saw them on this tour, they were playing San Diego on my 12th birthday, and to say I was excited is an understatement, lol.
The 80s Mullet.....lol.... him and Billy Ray Cyrus
Beautiful 🥰
How I recall that no sooner did I want to consult Davy Jones on Facebook that he'd passed away.
You are missed Davy
davey your are one of the best and iam a believer in you.
Is Davy wearing the SAME white coat he was wearing when I saw them at the Greek theater in 1986, later Davy takes off the white coat, throws it across the stage and is running and pointing his finger while his singing "Valleri" - NOT always, but at times the three of them were running, dancing, AND jumping all over that stage! You're only seeing a small portion of their act. The way I see it, THAT Davy grabs the audience by the neck, and HE WON'T LET GO...
@@joansmith6092 Also Davy was holding onto something with his left hand, I couldn't see but both of his feet were up in the air a little - and he was moving them back and forth as fast as he could and that audience was SCREAMING MORE THAN EVER!!!
💕💕When I saw her face 💕💕
Lucky you ! I never got the chance to go to their concert :(
Thanks for watching and comment!
Love u guys since my teenager years
Amazing!
Special memories
En los 60's muchos los criticaron, calificandolos de "producto" comercial de la industria de la música, mala copia de The Beatles,
Pero realmente son muy buenos, hasta hoy sus temas siguen vigentes
Rip, Davy Jones
My inner teenager is hyperventilating .😀
You all just fantastic you will be missed but memories will be there for ever god bless
Loved the amazing Monkees back in the. Yhgffhc lol
Saw this when it first aired!
Davy is one hot babe!!!!!!! I wish things never happened. Grew up with the Monkees on TV and still a fan and always will be. miss you Davy, you will never be forgotten, you keep singing with the angels!!!!!!
RIP to both davey and peter
I remember The Monkees sitcom, my favorite show as a 6 yr old ... maybe re-runs ?
I REMEMBER THIS SO WELL SITTING HERE WITH TEARS.. CAUSE I WAS A DAVY JONES FAN BIG TIME.. BACK IN THE DAY 1976 SEEN THEM AT DISNEYLAND OMG IT WAS SO MUCH FUN
Thanks for watching and comment!
RIP Davy
Thanks for watching and comment!
The Monkees were a light in the drab world of cannock staffs in the 1960s gave me so much pleasure as a teenager even went to see them at the empire pool Wembley and their show on TV was a highlight of my week thank you boys for giving me a lot of memories from that era still love the songs today goodbye Davy we girls all loved you so good looking ha!
Mas que pena que o Davy Jones morreu dos Monkees em 2012
Era as melhoras música de Davy Jones dos Monkees
Cómo olvidar los? Son parte de mi historia. Enamorada por siempre de David Jones.
Left us with some great tunes.
Grupo maravilhoso, lindas recordações.
Davy Jones forever...te amarei eternamente...
Damn Davy Jones and Donny Osmond were the best and sext teen agers Favy back in the sixties and eighties and Donny Osmond in the seventies and still is today
I am old enough to remember the show and how much I enjoyed it, it never crossed my mind once that they were fake musicians. They were musicians who were hired to be actors.
(Crying) I still miss you..Davy.
I saw them in concert four times. I saw them in the late 60's annd then took both my kids to see them, one in 1977, and one in 1987... both kids were three when they went. I wish I could have taken my grandson who was three, the year we lost Davy.
they. deserved. a. award. still. do
I think I have a VHS of this somewhere...this REALLY brings back memories! I became a Monkees fan thanks to their 20th Anniversary Reunion. I remember they were being criticized for being "old;" I guess back then, if a performer was in his/her 40s, he/she was considered old(some performer was mimicking them by singing their theme song and moving a walker, saying, "Why couldn't my mother invent White Out," referring to Mike Nesmith's mother). I was 16 then. I'd thought, "Gosh, I was born too late!" and "I think Davy is trying to fit in with that hairstyle." I'd seen the Monkees perform as a trio 9 times with the energy of men HALF their age. Additionally I saw Davy perform solo twice and met him personally three times in which I got his autograph(and a kiss!)...February 29, 2012 would be a day of absolute shock and heartbreak for me...and I believe those who knew Davy would agree. Since then, I've been unable to go to another Monkees show because to face the realization that Davy won't be there--though I've heard that they use videos of him, but it's not the same--would be even more heartbreaking. I think back to what Micky had said when Mike joined them for the tribute tour right after Davy passed; it was something to the effect of, "I was waiting for Davy...then I realized he wasn't there." Rest in peace, David Thomas Jones.
I bet that jerk with the walker won't be remembered in 50yrs.How dare he & why was it allowed?He should've been blacklisted for life!It's it amazing what some talentless dorks will do for a minute of fame?As for TV nowadays,you can stick it.All dumb reality shows & talentless Twerks.Thank heavens for DVDs & YounTube.
Idolos da minha juventude.
Amava todos eles, principalmente Mike Nesmith.
Amo ainda.
Gosh, I remember seeing this on TV. Loved Davy's hair with the highlights! I have such great memories of the 96-97 tour. RIP Davy.
+Taberah2001 The Monkees certainly brought back lots of sweet memories!Thank you for watching.
I remember too I was only 16.
O Davy Jones fez bastante sucesso né ??????????
Eu sinto pena de ter morrido o Daviy Jones
Eu ainda gosto das músicas do Davy Jones. Ele cantava muito bem né. Só que sozinho
Then on February 21, 2019 Peter Tork passed away from complications of adenoids cystic carcinoma.
It sucks getting old. Death comes too soon.
F*ck cancer
Where is Mike, The beanie wearing Monkey?
They were still alive and well when Davey Jones & Michael
@@sophiajoyceferry7150 Michael Nesmith died earlier this December. Prior to his passing, he had finished the final leg of The Monkees farewell tour at the Greek Theater in LA. He now joins both Davy and Peter in that great gig in the sky.
Davy passed away in 2012 and then 8 years later, Peter passed away in 2019.
And Michael Nesmith passed away this year.
Beautiful
Thanks for watching and comment
I thought they were the bomb back then. I knew Micky Dolenz wasn't really playing on those videos but i figured it was only cuz it was a video not a sound recording and sound would be added later. Eventually they all played an instrument or instruments on later albums. But to be fair, it absolutely was their voices on the recordings. No Milli Vanilli act here. Numerous other period bands used studio musicians. Beach Boys and others. The Monkees deserve their due in my opinion. Mike Nesmith and Peter Tork did play even on early albums btw. I listen to those LPs now and the sound is so primitive, raw and unprocessed or run through the effects. To me their stuff still holds up today. Mike Nesmith (Texas boy) wrote their best stuff. I especially like "What Am I Doin' Hanging' 'round"
Ironically that was not one of the songs Mike wrote! What Am I Doing Hangin' Round was written by Michael Martin Murphy. Of the five songs Mike sang on the Pisces-Aquarius album he only wrote one of them (Don't Call On Me). He also wrote Daily Nightly which was sung by Micky.
Love it!!
Thanks for watching and comment!
Rest in Peace Peter.
Awesome 🙌
r.i.p
For more than 2 years, Davy is still singing in my ears and this will last forever.
Un excelente grupo de mi juventud..
Certainly awesome! Thanks for the comment!
Damn! They were all HOT 🔥 here!!
Man, the energy they had (The Monks and their band) for those shows! You can tell they were reveling in the love the audience was giving them. Too bad they didn't have a third "Believer" song to make a trifecta medley! (Oh, and screw MTV for later pulling out the rug from under them!)
Well, MTV wanted them to play a Christmas show, but the group had already gone home for the holidays and their manager wasn't going to interrupt their time off, so they never even got the message. MTV were incensed, so they immediately withdrew all support for any future projects, most notably their next single "Heart And Soul" and it's parent album, POOL IT!. Remember, this was MTV at the peak of their powers, so without the channel's support, the Monks' latest offering died a death on the charts, effectively ending Monkeemania II. The nasty, petty, vindictive side of show biz in full bloom. x-(
***** Maybe it wasn't a "Christmas" concert per se, I forget exactly, but MTV wanted them to do SOME show or special performance, and it wasn't done, and the knives came out. MTV pretty much stated that the second wave of Monkeemania was over, so there was no reason to promote POOL IT, but come on, the album and its singles would have done MUCH better on the charts with their full support. As someone in the Monkees' camp complained, "What, did all the fans suddenly disappear?" But hey, you're right, Elvis: the Monks are still playing and still have their fans, and MTV is a pathetic shadow of the mighty influential entity it ONCE was. Ha-ha.
It was the 1987 Super Bowl Party special that MTV broadcast during the game's halftime. The Monkee's manager, David Fishof, booked them to perform during it, but didn't inform Davy, Micky, & Peter until after they had already made other commitments. MTV promoted the Monkees' appearance, big-time, but they didn't show, so MTV more or less banned them from their channel. Which was why "Heart & Soul," their first single/video from their '87 release, "Pool It," was not played on MTV (despite being among the most requested videos that summer). Who knows how long their comeback might've continued if not for that one big scheduling snafu?!
Ah, Super Bowl Party! Thanks, I couldn't remember the event. In ANY event, though, screw MTV!
@@BlanketMan That wasn't their fault. They had several instances of bad luck, bad scheduling and bad decision-making during their times together, not to mention in-fighting. Not sure of dates, but I know Peter was fired by Micky and Davy after he gave 30 day notice as he said as a recovering alcoholic, he couldn't take all the off the stage drinking and nastiness. Then there was the time Davy head-butted Peter, and Peter punched him back and he needed seven stitches. Tempers must have been high. I wonder over what? Still, Micky insists they were like siblings. I can't imagine doing a long tour with my siblings day after day, being tired, hanging around waiting to get to rhe next venue. It probably would end in murder! You've got to give these guys credit as they worked hard to give their fans great entertainment. Bless them all. ❤❤❤❤
Thanks for this! My one favorite childhood music!!!!
Thanks for watching and comment ! It does bring back loads of sweet old memories
Los veo y me lleno de añoranza 😭😭q juventud la mía cuando los escuchaba y me ponía a bailar de a brinquito los amo The monkees
