Lyrics:
All the leaves are brown (all the leaves are brown)
And the sky is grey (and the sky is grey)
I've been for a walk (I've been for a walk)
On a winter's day (on a winter's day)
I'd be safe and warm (I'd be safe and warm)
If I was in L.A. (if I was in L.A.)
California dreamin' (California dreamin')
On such a winter's day
Stopped into a church
I passed along the way
Well, I got down on my knees (got down on my knees)
And I pretend to pray (I pretend to pray)
You know the preacher like the cold (preacher like the cold)
He knows I'm gonna stay (knows I'm gonna stay)
California dreamin' (California dreamin')
On such a winter's day
All the leaves are brown (all the leaves are brown)
And the sky is grey (and the sky is grey)
I've been for a walk (I've been for a walk)
On a winter's day (on a winter's day)
If I didn't tell her (if I didn't tell her)
I could leave today (I could leave today)
California dreamin' (California dreamin')
On such a winter's day (California dreamin')
On such a winter's day (California dreamin')
On such a winter's day

This is one of those rare times where I caught a comment early
@@GermansRuinedWT indeed
Must be smoking to much
You should check out Angelina Jordan's cover and arrangement of this song and thank me later.
True stereo
I got the Mamas in my left ear and the Papas in my right ear
Accurate
yeah they discovered that stereo thingy these days. teh beatles messed a lot with it, i love it. :D
my left ear is broken. i can confirm this statement. havnt enjoyed this song in month
edit: new headphones came and i am currently enjoying the song.
@@novalumania it sounds to me like maybe he has headphones on an old AV wire connection and maybe has the mono in the left speaker and stereo in the right speaker?
I used to have an Atari game system with 8 bit music and you could unplug the mono wire from the TV and you would only hear the background part of the music. It was pretty cool.
which is the best cover of this song?
This song makes me feel so weird, sad, nostalgic and happy at the same time, it’s confusing but I love it
Omg same
I swear I feel the same
Same! 🙋🏻♂️✌️

Amazing how a handful of performers can somehow sound like an entire orchestra.
Well said! 💯
Right ear: california dreaming
Left ear: ...CALIFORNIA DREAMING
It’s weird because I was listening with one ear and it sounded weird
Ikr
:)))))))))))))
No stereo?
and that's a great feel :D
This triggers a weird kind of nostalgia in me... nostalgia for a live i haven't lived.
Exactly, like I was born in 2006 but its somehow kinda nostalgic for some reason. hmm weird.
Hits the soul! ❤️🙏❤️
This was my late husband's song. He was shot dead on August 21, 1975. Shit I'm weeping
@@KateBates22zabu I’m so sorry :( I hope you’re doing well and I’m proud of you ❤️
@@hugeclockowner7949 thx it was hearing the song just took me back 40+ years. The mystery of music, love it. Not listening again today tho 😕:)
This song is the personification of the 1960's! What a great sound... nostalgic tears falling 😢
Same...😢
And me also...
Growing up in Raymondville, Texas, this tune gave me the feeling I wanted to see California. That was in the 60s, now I've been here in sunny San Diego for 52 years, and loving life.
As to me, I'm old man too and I've always wanted to know if "it never rains in Southern California"... now I know "it pours, man, it pours"... (gilberto lehrer --- from brasil)
@@gillehrer2824 Interessante encontrar outro brasileiro por aqui
Lol yeah right. Newsom has completely ruined the place.
I grew up in Connecticut. I'm 48 now. I visited San Diego, my first time on the West coast at all, March 2023. It rained 4 of the 6 days I was there! I've been listening to this song and "It Never Rains in Southern California" all of my life. And rain is all you had for me when I finally get there. X-D
@@user-ry6oh9xn1u I had no idea. My birthday is in March. I hadn't been to the west coast so that's what I wanted to do for my birthday. I still enjoyed myself. I went to the SD Zoo and the Aquarium of the Pacific. I got some nice photos on the beach, too.. I also heard that they really needed that rain because they had just gone through a dry spell. Now it seems like they're getting too much rain!
This is one of the greatest songs ever written by anyone, at any time.
It's a beautiful song. & that's coming from a heavy metal fan.

OR DID THEY?
Trippy
When I heard this song as a child raised on the east coast, I just knew California was this magical place and I had to get there some way, some how.
Hope you're able to get there some day!
Well you were right! We would've called you 'East Coast'! Ha!
Michelle and Cass sound like 6 people harmonizing, not just 2.. Incredible.
It's the actual album recording. See there is no microphones, drummer, 2nd and 3rd guitar, bass guitar, horn players, tambourine etc...and they did lay down either 6 or 8 vocal tracks for harmonies. That's how all music videos were made back then. If you see electric guitars, look to see if there are cords plugged into it. If there isn't, that's you're indicator that they aren't playing. It shocked me when I was told about this, but it's just how they did it. And also in the 60s, there was a group of studio musicians that you can see in the documentary called the wrecking crew that recorded almost all band that had multiple singers music for them. You can watch them and Mama's and Papa's recording together. On this song too I believe. It's a really good thing to watch . They made hundreds , maybe thousands of if songs for so many music groups.
Cass IS five people so...
Lol
@@jeffniznick9280 well sir...lol. it's a shame too. She did have a really pretty face, but she was SO bothered by being so big. I mean, they had songs that flat out called her fat and she had to sing it in front of people.
@@jeffreymcclellan1717
It’s why I put “lol” at the end.
It was just a joke, as I’ve always found her voice to be beautiful.
Then of course, we saw the opposite in Karen Carpenter, who always thought she was fat so became an anorexic which killed her. Another beautiful voice lost too soon.
@@jeffniznick9280 Any woman would feel insecure next to Michelle to be fair 😅
when Doherty sings "Well, i got down on my knees" its just beaultiful and lovely.
Such a great voice 🎵🎶🎵🎶🤘🏻
but the next verse is "and I pretend to pray" all my life I'vr heard "and I began to pray"! Weird. Still a great song!@@toxic_badasss9656
Always thought it was I began to pray…
“Got”
And that "YOU KNOW THE PREACHER LIKES THE COLD"
The NCR brought me here. And I say : I'm from Shady Sands and we won’t go quietly!
Ever since I turned 40 I’ve opened up as a man-grown more nostalgic. I really desire to relive the 80’s, as the great Rod Serling said “Go back to where it all began.” Any one else feel this way?
40? That late?
Yeah same here mate... Fortunately most of my friends feel that way so we try to live up to those times as much as we can.

i was 19 years old and my next door neighbor in QC who was the most beautiful girl i ever saw was singing with her group “ the mieklos” an all girl quartet with this song “California Dreaming” and it mesmerized me!!I would open all our windows to heAR every word of the song whenever they practiced.
She is now my wife, have 2 daughters 3 grandsons and I now live in California with her !!I am now 72 years old!
How about that for fulfilling the California Dream!!
Thanks for sharing, cheers.

Is that true bc if it is then that’s insane
Beautiful story stay strong ❤️
Classic 60s song by a classic group. BRAVO!🌻
Classic harmonies.. How happy can this band possibly make me... Infinite and awesome 😊
This has to be right up there as one of the greatest songs of all time.

Yeah great 👍 memories It reminds me of landing in Seattle Washington after 9 months in Vietnam and heading to my next duty station at Fort Ord California I was definitely California Dreaming😍🙂😎

Those were the days when you could hear what they were singing about crystal clear. Xx
Miss, all you great bands. Your songs were magnificent. .❤
I'm Russian, born 1966, I think this song, like many others, is a human heritage. It will stay long time in a trend. Like House Of Rising Sun , like Garcia Marques, Hemingway, Remarque, Tolstoy, Kurosawa, Queen etc.
not forgetting another great Japanese director, Mizoguchi, much admired by Kurosawa. Sansho the Bailiff is even better than Seven Samurai, and is the peak of cinema, pipping the Russian Tarkovsky's Mirror/Zerkalo
@Saad Cheema, why?
@Saad Cheema False, the song is about wishing for a warmer world or simply a whole new landscape. California dreaming therefore means to fantasize about being free and free of all difficulties, and it became a common expression in the 1960s during the Vietnam War and the Civil Rights Movement.
@@mizofan You have good tast in movies my friend. Sancho the bailiff is excellent.
@Saad Cheema that has nothing to do with this song
I was 6 years old in 1965 and I recall the radios in Athens playing this divine tune. Glorious years, glorious tunes......
We're the same age and I remember having the same reaction in Manchester, UK, listening to this song on the radio. Fabulous memory.
@@davidknight5348 Thanks for sharing my views David. I can assure you, that those genuinely nostalgic years, won't be coming back, at least not before a major reshuffling of the cards, (i.e. www3, etc)

There is so much passion in their singing!!!
Mama Cass lives on! Beautiful times. Beautiful music
Such a beautiful haunting tune. Outstanding harmonies.
Ita a really cold song. I get it, its a classic but i never liked it because it made me feel depressed as a child.
yeah fax it’s a fire song tho
To me vocal harmony is the best music.
@@RackwitzG its pretty much fact that the more gifted singer you are the less of a song writer you are. The greatest song writers are those who had to make their vocals work , and i doing so are more gifted creatively speaking. Listen to Poco "trying" if you like harmonys a beaitiful song. Find the studio version
It's the harmonies that kills it
Still as popular today as well 2022 so
For me
And the Sky is red, California burnin.
On such a summer's day !!
Dark humor
Awful. All States have different problems. California a beautiful and complete State.
It's the Democrats' fault in a state like California. In Finland they get their brushes out and sweep up all the leaves in the forest. Not many people know that. I was talking to the President of Finland the other day.
Do you know that the President of Flingland has a term of 6 years? That's tremendous. Isn't that tremendous. I could have two terms of 6 years, that's nearly twenty, well it's more than ten, you can Adderall up youselves.
Anyway the orages of the trees being on fire is Chyna but I'm not racist. My favourite Beatles song, the one I most wanna hear is "Xi loves you", that proves I'm not racist. Isn't that tremendous?
Hitler wrote a book and I nearly finished reading one. That proves I'm not a racist. It was his book.
AND THOUGH I DIDN'T FINISH IT I DAMN NEARLY COPIED IT.
200,000 DOWN AND MILLIONS TO GO.
Make America great again - vote the orange oaf out!!!!
Try los angeles is burning by bad religion
An absolute supreme perfect masterpiece of euphony!!!
This song will never get old holds to many memories of that era ❤
This song comes very close to the best in the 1960s.And that is one hell of an achievement.
I am a huge The Beatles fan and i am actually going to agree with you :)
As they say ' great minds think alike." I like you am also a huge Beatles fan ( but then,who isn't).

I'm from the UK, never been to the USA. But the themes of missing a place that is so dear to you and feeling homesick is such an universal feeling.
Absolute classic.
Well said
It is called melancholy and many musical artists and composers captured that feeling.
You are so right on about that. Always remember..... America loves you. Come see us some day. You are missing out ❤️ california

Nevermind california , new york is the place. Get over here!!!
I was nine years old when this song was released and I remember listening to it on my friend's stereo. What a great decade for music. Nothing has topped it since then.
Awesome song 🎵, with outstanding lyrics made by an iconic group who are totally criminally underrated 🎉🎉

There was an episode with her in it. Scooby Doo routinely had popular icons do voice overs.
Probably?
😹😹😹😹😹
0% drugs? really xD
@@DavidDHahn It was a separate series called "The New Scooby Doo Movies". Each episode was an hour long (with commercials/network breaks) that featured popular actors, singers, and even had cross-over episodes with other Hanna-Barbera cartoon series that aired at the same time.
The episode with "Mama Cass" Cass Elliott had her running a candy factory being used by some goons for smuggling gold. They'd grind it up using a metal grinder and then mix it in with the chocolate used to make candy bars. They'd ship them off, then whoever received them would melt the chocolate down to extract the gold pieces.
Other episodes featured Don Knotts as a Sheriff, Dick Van Dyke as a carnival owner, Sandy Duncan as an actress, Phyllis Diller as I believe a psychic, and crossovers with several other cartoon series of the same era (early to mid 1970s).
Imagine how they felt when they perfected this song...
Greatest feeling
Mama was BOSS
Like absolute magic
They probably looked around at each other when the vocals came together and went, "there it is".
Essa musica remete à alegria dos anos 60. Lembro de meus irmãos falecidos quando eram adolescentes
How have I not loved this? My youth for sure, Mamas and the Papas, Beach Boys, Jan and Dean, the Rolling Stones and the Beatles. Love all of them.
This song is so hauntingly beautiful. It reminds of a place and time I’ve never been. Invoking a foggy memory that I don’t have.
This song makes me feel nostalgic for the times I wasn’t even born in
I borned in 2006 I feel the same
I hear ya! Sixties wasn't my time but I love this!
Fr😂😂😂🥲🔥❤️
Oh, I know, I was born in the 1970s, but there's something about the 1960s, where the harmony of the era gives me a feeling of almost being there. I think our yearning for such feelgood atmospheres make us picture ourselves there because we really wish we were there. I've also grown to love 1920s music, picturing myself there also, because it was another fun feelgood era. We don't picture ourselves in harder times like the depression years 1930s or WW2 early 1940s, wait scratch that, that was the swing era, even hard times had good things about them, when it came to the music and entertainment side of it anyways
Past life experiences
That vocals, man.
they give me such nice, dram,good vibes
This group was brilliant, they were a unique group, they had brilliant voices and talent, you never get music like this!!
A golden classic indeed. Great vocals. This tune is "just groovy man. Groovy. Can you dig it?" 😎
The song was written in 1963 by the lead singers of The Mamas & the Papas, John and Michelle Phillips. Two years later in 1965, the song was first sung by The Mamas & the Papas in concert and became world famous. The vocals and flute are unparalleled there. The song California Dreamin' tells the story of how John and Michelle felt while away from their beloved California. It describes the actual events of the few days before, including a visit to a church on a walk on a winter afternoon. The church that is mentioned in the second verse is St. Patrick's Cathedral. They had indeed been in it the day before.
🥰💞💞💞
Denny Doherty was the lead singer. Michelle was the only one from Southern California and she always spoke how she missed it. At the time they wrote the song, they were at a hotel in New york and it was snowing and depressive.
That was my wonderful years of young. Many wonderful groups that created a ERA that had not reached for others comb of groups
Thanks 🙏
Yeah and by all accounts Michelle was getting banged out by the lead vocalist Denny while married to John which eventually led to the group disbanding.
Although Cass Elliot would go on to have a successful solo career and die of heart failure a few years after.
This was my mom's generation/music 🎶 as I am a solid 80s baby born and prefer 80s music over 60s 70s music which I can't relate to...my mom liked the mommas and the Pappas.

They don't sing songs like these any more. Really missing the oldies. Thanks to youtube for keeping these treasures alive.
The California in this song is dead, there is no warmth to be found. There is no point in reminding people of something that doesn't exist anymore.
Sadly everything is auto tuned to fuck these days. Before my time, but I love this song.
@@HitPoint19 How does todays California compare to how it was 50 years ago?
I imagine there's too much to point out but what's the most outstanding change(
@Mike Colin Bless you Mike. The music like the M & P's was the sound track of my youth. And as I age, I get so nostalgic for that bygone era. I was very fortunate to have lived during the decades of awakening, and rock and roll was the thumping motor that drove society forward. Cherish the memories, for one day you'll be looking back with tears in your eyes, and a song in your heart that defines who you are.
❤ гарні хлопці та дівчатка, і пісня світла та добра!!! Добра їм!
Love this song. When Denny Doherty sings “Well I got down on my knees” sounds soo good chills
@Bella. Yep, if that belter of a line doesn't give you goosebumps, nothing will.
everybody talking about the strange feeling this song is giving to them, but it just gives me chills
But... but that is... that is literally what the chills are you fucking imbecile
Same thing
@@CarlJohnson-wk3rv for me are different things, I don't understand why you had to call me that way but anyway, if u say so=)))
@@CarlJohnson-wk3rv I think they mean an eerie feeling rather than chills from being astonished chill homie
it the song from tik tok
there's something oddly unsettling about this song lol, feels nostalgic
Nostalgia about memories I never have
Agreed
Not kidding when listing to this and thinking of vitenam I get chills but I'm only 15
It leaves one with the feeling of impending doom
It's a song that you feel that you've always known Enzito. Even if you didn't actually think about it it or sing it all the time. I'm the same.
Just came across this song a few days ago and its incredible. Im 30 years old, I have an old soul and love the 60s and 70s music
Watch "The Wrecking Crew". It's a documentary about how music was made back then.
I liked their style of singing. Their performances were a joy to watch.
This ain't just nostalgia, it's an unfounded melancholy. Glad I found this song today.
this song has to power to give nostalgia even tho you never experienced anything in that nostalgic feeling
Ngl I just added this song to a playlist I have called “The end of the world.” Its not a long one and its an odd assortment but it has this, my way by frank sinatra, hotel california by the eagles, and its the end of the world as we know it by REM. They all have a weird feeling to them like I could listen to it on the last day of earth and be content.
This song is etched in the hearts and minds of everyone who hears it, and it remains recognizable immediately.
Factsss
Forest Gump brought me here.
Yes. I didn’t know the name but heard it before and then in an advert. Finally someone told me what the name is.
I hear those first two plucks and I know what Im listening to.
as the moment the red buff got stolen
It’s brings tears to my eyes as it reminds me of what seems a lifetime ago when my Dad and others were alive and I was young😢❤
Timeless classic!!!
Classics never go out of style. This song is definitely a classic.
the industrial revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race
