    Vietnam in '70 with the Marines......about 4 months after getting there, lost the girl I wanted to marry. Many a night lying in the back of helicopter, I stare out at the night sky and have those exact thoughts, then hope we get a mission to launch, so I'd could lose those thoughts for a while. Even though we reconnected when I got home, she wouldn't marry someone whose eyes were now empty and I lost her again. Even now 50+ yrs later, when I hear this song, she pops up from the recesses of my mind and I wonder where and how she is.......

    Boyce and Hart were amazing songwriters, and as we all know, the brains behind the Monkees, but masterful musicians on their own too. It may be pop, but some of it had real human pathos to it, like this song, which STILL makes my eyes a little weepy 54 years later.

    Way back in my high schools days when a couple of pals and I would go out cruisin' in suburban Columbus, Ohio, we heard this song seemingly about a million times when it would come on the car radio (WCOL AM). I think it was one of the songs we heard often enough, and liked well enough, that we would sing along with it, complete with fake mics in our hands.

    Like listening to it the first time. Throughout the whole song I had to keep reminding myself I wasn't having an excellent flashback (yeah, I'm that old.) Heard harmonies and instruments I'd never heard before. A wonderful job!!

      The harmonies and instruments you didn't hear the first time weren't there. The "enhancer" has added his own vocals to this as well as instruments.

    Early summer, '68, cruising around our part of Montgomery, Alabama, in my Dad's Triumph Spitfire listening to this. One bright day I not only had my ride's top down, I took off my shirt to be cooler. Paper next day had a story about a naked man in a sports car.

    1966: Boyce and Hart were staff writers at Screen Gems-Columbia Music and tapped by boss Don Kirshner to create songs for a band for a new television series. They were essentially the fifth and sixth Monkees during the first year. The music was so good, their 'leftovers' earned them a contract with A&M. Prohibited from using the name, Dolenz, Jones, Boyce & Hart formed for a couple of years in the 70's, playing Monkees songs and adding more of their own. Be at peace, Tommy Boyce.
