Negli anni 60 lavoravo in un negozi di vendita dischi e questa canzone andava a ruba .Ho ancora il disco originale .Che nostalgia mi riporta indietro di 60 anni ,bellissimi ricord e tempi meravigliosi .Un saluto dall'Italia ed un buon 2023 a tutti .Grazie per questa Clip
Spent some time there in 67 after returning from Vietnam. Loved all the beautiful people. To the sweet flower child that I met briefly, I hope life has been good to you. I'll never forget.
I was five, but was there in spirit......one of the most outlandishly great ballads ever penned....this is where the band panics, out of tune, and Scott's scared shitless, but still handsome as a God, so I gotta love it....
That era changed culture and the way we think. The 1960s brought us out of the darkness and into a new light of togetherness, experimentation, music and more.
Lovely talented Mama Cass introducing John's song (yeah, Mama's & the Papa's), sung by Scott McKenzie - which topped the charts in the UK 44 years ago today. Still #1 with me.
I was in San Francisco in fall, I will go there again to live there, and I will allways wear flowers in my hear, summer time will be a love in there, and I gonna meet some gentle people :)
I was a kid in Bangladesh (Dacca) would listen to this song on the radio....somehow it made me feel peaceful...I knew nothing about hippies in those days, but I imagined people being happy in a far away country called America.
+Anthony Boreck I grew up in the 60's...and feel blessed ! It is there in your heart, though..which is very important for this superficial world we live in, now. You can spread these vibes around with your smile and appreciation of this music, and hence resurrect it....(:
I have been to San Fran 2 times this year and will spend Christmas there. I love this town, song and Sheri for showing me the best town on earth. What a great, great place to visit and a long way from Frederick, Md.
Happy memories for me too. It wasn't perfect, but we could learn A LOT nowadays from the 'gentle people with flowers in their hair'. Non of us thought it would come to a world like this. Love and Peace.
I love the kindness of the american people (been there 5 times, my Dads american) especially in the west. (colorado- california). so many people talk open to u without hesitation, offering u help etc.. When u do that in Germany, people look you with big eyes, makes me sad. Love u USA!!
5:30 P.M ..mas o menos como estas horas, hace una semana,.un amigo y yo estabamos tocando alla por la calle Embarcadero,Hoy al ver este video vienen a mi mente muchos recuerdos,de esta linda ciudad de San Francisco...paz y amor !
Ich war knapp 7, als diese Aufnahme entstand und durch die (halbe) Welt ging, aber auch jenseits des Eisernen Vorhanges und Mauer ist uns dieser Song - wenn auch sicher später - im Gedächtnis "hängen geblieben". Ich verneige mich vor Scott Mc. Kenzie für diesen wunderschönen Song. R.I.P.
I'm 18 old, and... i remember when my father played that music in guitar just to me... And, today in day... i'm here,watching and thinking : " If was borned in that time... oh god,would be amazin". sorry for my bad english,i'm brazilian. i'm learning english,yet.
I was in Germany in 1967, and bored with Army duty there, I volunteered for Vietnam and when i came home for 30 days prior to leaving for the war I spent doing a constant love-in with my new-hippy high school friends. This song, and Light My Fire, Dylan's Everyone Must Get Stoned (sic) were popular and everyone was turning on. After hanging out with my new hippy friends I left for the war and the first thing I was asked when I got there was, "You wanna smoke a joint?" I of course said, "Yes."
R.I.P Scott this song has happy memories for me and that don't include drugs or love ins i was living in London and 17 and a wonderful time to be alive God rest my friend xxxx
The decade of flowers, self-expression, freedom, creativity, insanity, drugs, music, love, experimentation..the time where the ups and lows of the human spirit created an air of authentic human scent and sensitivity!
Well it is a sad thing that this beautiful moment in time was shrouded in weed and acid but the song truly captured a spiritual peace in that song. I will always love this song! They just do not make them like this anymore.
I was just turned 7 at the time in 1967 and I think that both the Monterey and Woodstock festivals paved the way for the likes of Glastonbury just saying.
@awakeningnow Well, all credit to Scott McKenzie - whom I met in a London guitar store in the 1970s...think he had a small dog with him - for holding his arm and holding his key against that dirge of a tuneless backing band - attributable to the drugs, I'm sure! A beautiful voice and song which mesmerised me as a young kid. Still does...
@DjOrlowski let's do it! Wear Flowers, Be creative, use secondhand Welcome the stranger, Be interested in their lives, share with everyone, throw away all prejudices, but stay 100% These are beatiful ideals, but times did change a bit and not everyone is in for "Love 'n' Peace" , but i would love to live the same way as they did back then. "love 'n' Peace"
San Francisco once the mecca of the counter culture has become the mecca of the capitalists. I loved the days of The Haight -Ashbury and Hippies everywhere. Scott Mckenzie would be shocked at todays "City By The Bay" RIP Scott McKenzie We Love You

One of the voices of my generation. R.I.P. Scott.

Époque bénie.. Paix et amour devrait être l hymne du monde
🙏💖
The Monterey pop festival, a true enigma of the early pop years! It was a beautiful attribute to us us all. Thank GOD it happened!!
Que maravilha!!! Não me canso de escutar. Cada geração com suas pessoas...e este tempo nos proporcionou lindas canções e momentos.
Rest now Scott! THANK YOU!... FLYING TO THE LIGHT to many San Francisco's! love you
Mama Cass in my opinion was the heart and soul of the Mamas and Papas. Such a great voice.
I was five, but was there in spirit......one of the most outlandishly great ballads ever penned....this is where the band panics, out of tune, and Scott's scared shitless, but still handsome as a God, so I gotta love it....

Mes années folles nostalgie souvenirs inoubliable j'adore cette magnifique chanson que j'écoute en boucle Scott Rip quelle voix sublime émotion 🙏💖

I didn't grow up in the 60s but this music speaks to me this man speaks to me.. I missed out!!

Hermosa cancion muy de la epoca himno
Off the charts! One of the Hippie National Anthems of a wonderful, lost time, that will linger with the sweetest memories of my life.
Good one Mama cass and Scott,
Old hippies never die they just grow flowers in their hair.
Love,
Red from Australia
R.I.P. Scott....Thanks for the memories!!

Well it is a sad thing that this beautiful moment in time was shrouded in weed and acid but the song truly captured a spiritual peace in that song. I will always love this song! They just do not make them like this anymore.
@Oratorna Yes, Janis is chatting with Jack Casady of the Jefferson Airplane.
Szabadság szerelem ❤️❤️❤️❤️

LOVE / SAD THAT THE WORLD HAS FORGOTTEN [ ONE LAST HIPPIE 69 ]

Grandes voces de mi generacion que buenos tiempos no vuelven mas solo recuerdos

Belisimo
Very Nice Song :)
I was just turned 7 at the time in 1967 and I think that both the Monterey and Woodstock festivals paved the way for the likes of Glastonbury just saying.
I likee veery muuch!
raios nasci na época errada....vou procurar uma maquina do tempo!
1:27 - 1:30 One of the most beautiful girls that I never see!!
Diablos, naci en la epoca equivocada
Yo pienso lo mismo 😪
Gina castillo Ya somos tres :D
Julio Abanto No lo creo! Sólo levantarse e ir a luchar por todas las cosas que usted cree!

👏🏽👌🏾👏🏽👌🏾✌🏾✌️✌🏾✌️✌🏾....
@psycho2596 Yes, it was beautiful... I also wish I could rewind the tape.
@Romulous4 you cannot imagine how different it was then. There really has been no social upheaval of the same magnitude since.....
@DjOrlowski let's do it!

"love 'n' Peace"
Genial.
She is right...he has a beautiful voice..total injustice he had only one hit.
1:58 Jimi hendrix?
if you remember the 60's you weren't there.
never knew that he was in the mamas & papas group before they became famous.
San Francisco once the mecca of the counter culture has become the mecca of the capitalists. I loved the days of The Haight -Ashbury and Hippies everywhere. Scott Mckenzie would be shocked at todays "City By The Bay"
RIP

yes, the mean price for housing in SF is now over $800,000.
