I was 17 in 67 and living very near kings Road in Chelsea , how lucky I was and although I don't like being an old man now I am extremely grateful that I lived through such a vibrant tolerant and loving time , I wouldn't change it for the world.
Me too, I was in my early teens when R&R started and in my 20's and still single in the swinging 60's in the UK . I''ve been happily married for 50 years but the memories of the 50's and 60's will live with me forever.
To the beautiful young lady I met briefly in San Francisco on my way back from Vietnam in 67, I hope life has been good to you. I haven't forgotten. You were a flower child preaching love. We need more people like you today. I hope to meet you again some day.
l have always been a hippie thru out my life, 74 now and l know every word to that song, l wore long dresses and flowers in my hair when young. Yes, they were good times when life was simpler and more fun.

I'm 71. I was still in school when this song came out. No overpowering backing, just a great voice with guitar and heartfelt emotion. Gets me every time. ❤️
Rest in ☮️ Peace Mama Cass Elliott, Jimmy Hendrix, Scott McKenzie, and Janis Joplin you were a part of the great Hippie era, far-out and groovy. You 🐈 cats were really a gas.
*** Fantastic 👏 👌 🙌 Beautiful 😍 ❤ song 🎵 🎶 that 🙏 will always be dear to my heart ❤! This 💖 song 🎵 is one of the best I have ever heard & the singer is A1!!!
Very true. I was there then as a teen runaway. I was just a kid who didn't know anything about anything at all, including myself. I had no clue that those days would settle on me and be with me always. We are all free to Love.
In '67 I was in junior high on the east coast, and I loved this song. My parents went out to San Francisco to see what all the fuss was, and bought me a dress in the Haight and Dad took a few reels of super 8 film all over town, so I could see "real footage." He spliced the reels, put on onto a large can and we'd watch them and other film he'd taken all over the US, New York, West VA, Baltimore late 60s, DC at the reflection pool in '69, the people the clothes, the mountains, and of course the beaches, me my friends. All spliced, chronological, from '55-'74. Later in the 80's he had a local Camara & Film outfit colorize the film, put it all to music and he gave me 2 VHS of the whole collection. I've since had a video place transfer onto DVD. My father's labor of love on film is my most treasured thing from him. I still have the dress. It still fits ( with spanks.) And I still love this song.
This song brought the youth of the US to San , most of them not Hippies. The summer of 1967 was the peak of the Hippies era but by Fall it was all over, everyone went back to their home town and lived their lives as before. Those of you now parents and grandparents that were there must have so many wonderful recollections . What a tale to tell your grandchildren!
Maybe you went back and lived your life as before in 1967 but the many cool people I met hitchhiking up and down Hwy 101 and who I met in San Francisco remained there into late 1969. There were several active communes during that time also.
Playing this over and over. Because it's beautiful and so is the fleeting glimpse of beautiful Jimi. He was so unaffected by his fame, he was a true human.
I grew up in the Central Valley and went to school there in the 60's. My small country school would take field trips to San Fran. This is the San Fran that I remember. It has been so many years since I have been back, what I hear about it now brings tears to my eyes.
I was there too!!! The "Human Be-In" 1967...Golden Gate Part! Wow! Remember "everything is perfect....and this is really it" over and over and over!!! What a day that was!!! D
I visited family in ‘75~Hollywood, CA. On the flight in, Fleetwood Mac band was on the plane too. We went everywhere those few weeks, lovely place and time…memories for an impressionable 16yr old, will never forget!❤
This song epitomizes the "The Summer Of Love (1967)". It touches your soul. Unfortunately, I was only 5 years old at the time and couldn't experience any of it. This song is timeless. RIP Scott McKenzie. Thanks for the memories.
This is one of my favorite songs of all time, it's a beautiful song, music today cannot come close to this music. From what I see today it should be called Sanfranshitsco.
Woodstock nein, aber 1970 waren wir als Au-Pair Girls beim Isle of Whiight Festival, dabei und erlebten alles auf eine >europäische Weise< Ebenso wie 2 Tage zuvor das unglaubliche Erlebnis entlang der Carnaby Street und Kings Road. Beim Festival waren ua Doors, The Who, Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen und natürlich Jimi Hendrix was uns am meisten schockte als wir 3 Wochen später wieder nach Hause kamen --- dass er starb während wir uns auf der Heimreise befanden. --- Viele liebe Grüsse aus Schweden ❤❤❤
Lovely memories of growing up in the 60’s and 70’s. All the people kissing~hugging~feeding each other; can feel and see the love in their expressions. Scott has a phenomenal voice and spoke to us; so darn uplifting!!!🌸🌼🌺 😻
We still feel like 2 x 35 years !!! at that time were really happy through and through - NOWADAYS YOUNG PEOPLE ARE JUST FEELING SAD AND LONELY, GET MOBBED OR THEY ARE SURE THE WORLD IS EXPLODING WITHIN A FEW YEARS ANS SOMETIMES THEY EVEN COMMIT SUICIDE !!! ❤❤❤love from Sweden
It is a very deep and groovy soul that I relive and sing along with every time I hear it. I was on edge of turning a teenager and entering high school in 1967 when this song came out. Always loved it since then and sing along with it and relive the 1960's when I hear it.
Ich war damals 14 Jahre alt, zu jung um dabei zu sein. Aber dieses Lied war meine allerletzte Schallplatte und ich hatte damals auch schwarze Hosen mit roten Rosen drauf an und dieses Lied hab ich nie vergessen.
Cuando Mckenzie cantaba este tema tan increíble, yo venía a este mundo. Aveces añoro no haber nacido antes para poder haber vivido esa época tan especial de la historia.
Every time I watch it again, I am so captivated by that mood at the time, I would long back in that age so much. I would also sit down there in the grass with them, and I would go to Woodstock too. It is a great pity that this world can never come back again :(
Essa música além de linda, ficou eternizada sobre uma geração do paz e amor e flores no cabelo ✌️🌼 RIP: Scott Mckenzie, Brian Jones, Janis Joplin e Jimi Hendrix.
A time when perhaps, just perhaps we could have changed the world. The elderly could walk the streets without fear, mini skirts, winkel picker shoes flared trousers. It will forever be one of his what ifs but oh the memories.
: Encore une chanson inoubliable qui aura marqué cette époque "sixties" et plus particulièrement "hippie" et qui pour beaucoup d'entre nous fut notre jeunesse !
Beautiful song! I remember those days. Was 17 in 1967. I live in Cali. then. Some of the clips are from "the summer of love concert' in Monterey Park; and some are from Woodstock in 1969. Went to both.
Sounds Even Better Now !!!....Compared to when I heard it first in 1967...when I was just 12 years old just starting to appreciate music! Visuals were great---captured those days so well....
So many gone. Scott, Cass, Jimi, Janis, John Phillips (who wrote the song), Brian......and the summer of '67 came and went far too soon. It makes me cry.
This was the very song that led me there for 4 years on Height Asbury,there never be another time like this again i was just discharged from the USAF and sitting in a coffee shop and heard that song it moved me to go and find out what it was all about well 4 years later Idid
I'm 73 now and bought this record in 67 one of the best sons ever. Reminds me of carefree fun days of the 1960s when life seemed more laid back and stress free
I MISS SO MUCH THOSE BEAUTIFUL AND WONDERFUL TIMES. I WILL ALWAYS LOVE MY SAN FRANCISCO THOSE WERE THE BEST YEARS, IT'S PEOPLE , MUSIC, THE GOOD TIMES OF OUR YOUTH. LOVE YOU S.F. ALWAYS IN MY HEART.
Que lembrança maravilhosa. Época em que realmente imperava o AMOR, a FELICIDADE nos rostos e nos sorrisos das pessoas. Épocas em que as pessoas eram mais bonitas, mais belas, tanto os homens quanto as mulheres. Época da juventude PAZ e AMOR, onde havia a verdadeira liberdade, o verdadeiro amor entre todos.

...Actually, when you think of it, Arabs with their long hair, beards and flowing robes do look like hippies...way before there were hippies....peace and love brother!
Très belle époque, j'avais à peine 14 ans et ce tube était 1 révélation : excellents musiciens, qui ont donné cette ambiance et le chanteur unique et reconnaissable entre tous ! Merci à feu Scott Mckenzie, tu nous a fait du bien !!!!!
Summer of Love and I was few months old when this beautiful and lovely song came out. I was born in December 1966. Rest in ☮️ Peace Scott McKenzie that was a groovy far-out era song ever. Just like that hippie era saying It was really a gas? ✌️ ☮️
For those of us alive then in 1967, and still alive in 2023, that time was indeed precious and free still. Different time, different styles, different values, different music, different people, different era, different country, different world. A time never to return again. Glad I lived it.
Many of us would like to go back to 1967....and never leave
Those were simpler times, good times and fun times with friends. And, we got along very well without computers and cell phones. 😀

I grew up in the 1960s. I'm not here to argue about what decade is better, but if you have a time machine, then I would like to go back to 1967.
Beautiful song and people. It was a lovely dream.
I was 17 years old at the time great songs then. Am now 70 😢 please tune back time.
I was born in the early 2000s and feel so nostalgic for this time I never knew.
It was the first totally peaceful Revolution in the World. Great!
I like the period as well but I think it wS not so good as portrayed, because of one thing and that was drugs nothing good comes from that

The world needs such an anthem today more than ever before. "Peace to the world!"
Très belle époque, j'avais à peine 14 ans et ce tube était 1 révélation : excellents musiciens, qui ont donné cette ambiance et le chanteur unique et reconnaissable entre tous ! Merci à feu Scott Mckenzie, tu nous a fait du bien !!!!!
Summer of Love and I was few months old when this beautiful and lovely song came out. I was born in December 1966. Rest in ☮️ Peace Scott McKenzie that was a groovy far-out era song ever. Just like that hippie era saying It was really a gas? ✌️ ☮️
I was there and I cannot believe our greatest generation were the mothers and fathers of the hippies!
The greatest generation did some good things(and some bad things), and the hippies did some good things, or at least believed in some good things.
I was 18 when this record came it was then and remains today my all-time favourite record...Monterey 1967.
For those of us alive then in 1967, and still alive in 2023, that time was indeed precious and free still. Different time, different styles, different values, different music, different people, different era, different country, different world. A time never to return again. Glad I lived it.
I like hippiness because maybe not fully but halfway why not it's humble fun and humorous as well as peaceful and of true love
beautiful !!!!!
Viva las buena musica 🤗🤗🤗❤❤❤
