4. This saddens me

another part of my youth gone. I know it is fashionable to berate the Monkees and their music but I love some of their songs-Last Train to Clarksville, Valleri, Pleasant Valley Sunday, D. W. Wasburn and Mary, Mary. One of the early pioneers of the music video. Safe passage Davy!

5. Me too.

The Monkees were what they were supposed to be -- Fun. I loved watching the show, because they invited us to laugh with them. The music was fun, and I'll never forget Marcia Brady's crush. How lucky was she?
