Cheers nobody Now I feel sad AND old.........( )

Is no-one else shocked that people only know "Davy Jones" as from Pirates of the Caribbean and not from their general pirating knowledge?

I just cried watching Daydream Believer on You Tube
(I am hormonal)

I used to watch the Monkees on TV in the 70's and 80's, so the sound of their pop songs "feels" like the soundtrack to my childhood. I think the show was on every morning in the summer holidays. As kids we would try and do that funny walk they do together in the opening credits.

I was very fond of all them. Davy was very handsome.
Check out the song "A Little Bit Me , A Little Bit You"

Its just such a perfect pop song and its written by Neil Diamond.
I think Davy is doing the lead vocal on this song.
Lots of the Monkees big hits had lead vocals by Micky.

ye, am sad, he looked so healthy and was easily the best looking of the lot. He reminds me of my uncle, so youthful looking.

I remember watching them on the telly when I was young.
