damn, the Monkees were the first band i knew about, i loved them. the first record i ever bought was Daydream Believer, my mom had taken me to the doctor for shots and rewarded me by taking me to the music store, the owner was a middle aged man, my problem was i was only 4 or 5 and had no idea what the name of the song was, i told him Sleepy Jean, he looked and couldn't find it - so then he asked me to sing it, oh jeeze, i was shy, but i sang the 'cheer up sleepy jean' part for him.

they were a very interesting little part of rock n' roll history - a band cast for a kids tv show with the best pop/rock songwriters of the era writing songs for them. they grew into a real band, sorta, but nobody took them seriously.

the songs have lasted, they have far more songs that are still played than real rock bands who were pretty big in their era.

ah man, that's sad, that Davey Jones is dead and he was 66! fuck i'm getting old.

this song is their best
