I think every girl who had a crush on Davy feels that way. He was such an important part of our childhoods, and he meant so much to everyone. Each of us will carry him with us in our hearts forever, and our hearts will always be broken. There aren't too many clebrities who have that kind of long-lasting impact on their fans.Davy was very special!
Knew Davy Jones...my family lived near his...a genuinely nice all round person...he will be sadly missed by all
RIP Michael Nesmith you and the rest of the guys made my life so much brighter fun times that I truly miss
Farewell, Peter. You guys were the best. Glad Mike and Micky are still at it.
Mike is now gone .
RIP Mike :(
We're down to the last Monkee now, and if he tries to do the Monkee walk he's going to look really silly.
Will always miss Peter... 🥀
@@zakmartin NO, he is beloved and audiences everywhere will not think that at all.
When I was a kid Davy was my favorite. Now that I'm all grown up, I pick Peter. Love them all though. R. I. P. Davy and Peter. 😔 😢
Funny, when I was younger I loved Peter, now I like Mickey. I will always be a monkee fan ❤
I loved Davy then and now.
OMG - Forgot how funny Mikey Dolenz and Tork are - Love this interview....especially the bit about Hendrix opening for them trying to play Foxy Lady in between audience chants "We want Davy! We Want Davy!"
Smokin, "funny" and "goofy" are two different things.
@@chipgaasche4933 true.
They're funny and you're goofy.
Very funny bit. And Tork lamenting, "poor Jimi". 😅
I still have a Monkees album from 1967. I was 8 years old and it was the first gift from my parents on my birthday. Hard to believe Davey and Cassidy have already passed on.😢
You are so right. I had lots of crushes when I was a little girl [Bobby Sherman, David Cassidy, and Donny Osmond], but when Davy passed away, it felt as though I had lost a dear, close friend. It hurt, and it still hurts to know that he's gone. I've never had a strong emotional connection to a celebrity, and I've never been so affected by a celebrity's death. Davy was one of a kind. We lost this sweet man much to soon. I'll never heal completely.
I know this is from 9 years ago but I still feel the same way. Davy is the only celebrity that I totally broke down over when I heard he had passed.He was my childhood love and beyond.
Davy looks fabulous!! Here was my very first crush [3 years old in 1966], I have loved him ever since. I will love you forever, Precious Angel!
I love the Monkees!!!!
Peter was my favorite!!!
Same here
Of course.
yeh he's the best looking
Miss you Davy, you were my first love @ 6 yrs old! You were my childhood then. I don’t remember much from those days, but I do remember crushing on you and my parents buying all your albums for me! I remember saving my allowances to buy the Tiger Beat mags, and also being Davy for Halloween! Miss the good old days!
And thanks for all the wonderful memories!
Davy looks really good here!
R.I.P. Davy Jones.
We miss ya', man.
Miss you Davey!...RIP
"Get over it" omg i LOVE MIKE
Davy and Peter both gone 😢. Part of my childhood died with them. RIP guys xxx
I grew up watching the Monkees Sat afternoon. . I love it ❤
MICKEY: "The girls don't throw their panties at us anymore; they throw Depends"
Aw, Mickey
God bless the monkees.these guys are forever throughout the universe and beyond..!!! They are happiness..!!!!!!!!!
Happy heavenly birthday Peter Tork. 5 years later we still miss you. Love is understanding.
Sempre amei.Vi os MONKEES pela primeira vez na TV em 1968.Eu tinha 8 anos de idade.Me apaixonei por Davy Jones.
Davy..
Se foi. Que ele sinta de onde estiver meu amor por ele. Eternos pra mim.DAVY , MAIKE, MIKE E PETER TORK. AMO DEMAIS!😢😢❤❤
R I P DAvy Pter R I P Missing you both but loved Davy so much Ill love him forever !!
I liked the Monkees since I was a kid in the 60's
Mike Nesmith became a writer/director/ producer who, as Mickey said, mixed an album they did together. The guys have other lives. Thank God Mike is still with them, just not on tour. For four young men who didn't know one another, they've been together 48 years, Davy in spirit. At least now, what they write they own. Neil Diamond and others did right by them when they began. Be happy Mike's still with them rather than down him. ¬ JTD
Not any more. RIP Papa Nez.
RIP Davy! We miss you!
It proves that they had excellent taste!
Poor Mickey is now only the sole survivor. I feel for him. We love you Mickey. 😘😘😘😘
I still miss Davy and Pete!!. Davy was my first crush when I was 10.
Davy's passing was painful.
I agree with you and he was my first love too and I'll love him forever as well, yes he was our Precious Angel, miss him terribly, still cant believe he is gone
who?
The Monkees 50th Anniversary Best Classic Band 2016
They weren't a "band", tom.
Mike does join them on occasion but he still has a huge company that he has commitments to and it is not like he can just let go. We should all be glad he is still here at least and enjoy what he has offered. I love all the Monkees but Mike is my favorite still after 40 some years.
He's not here anymore and no I don't think he ever appreciated what the Monkeys did for him and his career. He is one of the big reasons the show was cancelled.
I so fucking loved those guys
Micky has always been my favorite 💜💜
I love peter
RHONDA CANNON well then 😎
Me, too. 💙
I saw Hendrix open for them at Red Rocks; I was 13 I think...none of us knew what the hell we were listening to! It was just like that scene in Back to the Future; just a crowd of really confused kids! LOL
Mickey and Peter are really in sync here. Belly laughs! How the hell did I miss this interview originally? I bought the album the day it came out, I was a regular tonight show watcher.... don't know.
I feel the same way, not ever going to heal completely over his death
I was lucky enough to see these three when they were doing one of their reunion tours. Peter was so hilarious. Davy was always my favorite. RIP Davy & Peter‼️
Mickey must be beside himself. His brothers are gone😥😥😥
Mike loves to tour NOW at 70 something after quadruple bypass with not one band but two bands: 1st National Redux and the Mike and Mickey show. People do change!
Man Mike loved the Monkees. Mike and peter were Real Solid muscians. I think Mike wanted be in a real band the monkees were a TV show about a band. Mike also got into the business side creating video and recieved the first grammy for a video. I even believe Mike and Peter not getting along was an artistic conflict not personal. I bet if you put Mike and peter on an island for a week with just them with a studio, instruments some kick ass pot and beer they would of made some AWESOME music.
🙏🙏🙏🙏 for. Davy Jones and Peter torkelson...r I.p.
And Nez too.
I met Davy summer of 94 Ill love Davy forever
I saw them on tour in 1986...I even bought their album...yes, I said album...!
We want Davy! We want The Monkees! Poor Jimi
I never got Mike Nesmith's attitude towards the Monkees. Why not just have fun with it and let people enjoy themselves? He always seemed to take himself so seriously. Life is full of heartache so lighten other people's burden if you can.
A lot of the times it was because of other obligations. Mike has always run a company or two here and there, as well as having multiple projects of an artistic nature going on at the same time. Most of the time it wasn't because he didn't want to, but he simply couldn't. He's back in the game now though, so it all balanced out in the end. :)
In 1968 I would stare at their various little photos on the album cover and sometimes see pics elsewhere. I never felt comfortable with Nesmith's face. He looks like a pissed-off person not trying hard enough to hide it. Decades later ('80s) I spoke to people older than me who had bigger more detailed memories of all things '60s & '50s. They knew people who interacted with him, reflecting that he was a pampered but jaded snob with sour grapes attitude about anything that didn't go his way and that didn't profit him more than his peers. And they also stated that he "took himself way-way too seriously in proportion to his actual talent".
BACK WHEN MEN WITH TALENT WERE IN THE TOP 40. FAN SAN ANTONIO TEXAS
Davy is hot!
RIP Davy, Peter and Michael
Such a interesting group of pure talent. I'm happy to see them together in this clip,! I sure wish they did more music togather. BEST wishes!
I never knew Hendrix opened for them. Mind blown.
K In the ‘80’s Weird Al opened for them. Much better fit. I saw them in 2001 and I think it was Peter’s band, Shoe Suede Blues that opened.
Actually Jimi opened for them 5-7 times b4 he got mad and threw his guitar into the audience. Lol. He was singing foxy lady while the girls were screaming foxy davy. Lol
"Mike's mixing our new album." "AAIIIIIEEEE!!!!" Meanwhile, how many of those people screaming actually BOUGHT the damn thing when it came out? Not too many, I'd wager. I did, and JUSTUS is a pretty good album! True, there's no poppy "Clarksville" or "Believer" on it, but what is there - "It's Not Too Late, "You And I," and "Regional Girl" - is worthy of the guys' legacy. The updated version of "Circle Sky" is worth the price of admission alone! ;)
I DID!! I"M the ONE who bought it. This album sold even less copies than Pool It!
I know I'll get attacked on this one but I prefer Pool it to Justus. There are a few good tunes on Justus but it's definitely not Headquarters 2 whereas Pool it is a jamming '80s update of the Kirshner era type of thing. I took it out and dusted it off recently and my gosh, 30 years later there are some brilliant tunes on it (along with a couple of clunkers).
Of course, Good Times is the Mac-Daddy of everything.
Justus is a great album. Peter said he really liked it.
RIP Davy...This was a stark reminder of getting older; still hear the theme song of the Monkees as a young kid 9 years old back during a wonderful era. Remember Rat Fink and Mad Magazine, wipe out and playing with my little plastic army set in the yard watching the Monkees.
- Just proves our lives are a fleeting moment.
Mike made the group. Davy was the heart. Peter and Mickey were the talent. Not of music but of theater and comedy. Mike is a genius
W Morris Whaaaat?! They ALL made the group!
God Bless The Monkees Forever!
Ronson,.... So True !!!
Amazing this is 30 years since their heyday. RIP Davy and Peter
They all look really good! They still look so young!!
1995 was a loooooooooooooooooong time ago
Much time has passed since this video was taken. They remained handsome guys but definitely older.
@@nmtg Well, everyone ages. And now there's only Micky left. I'd give anything to have them still around (older than dirt) rather than where they are now! I miss them! RIP Davy, Peter and Mike. 💜🧡💙
1996 was the year i got to see them live,Kingsport, TN..... without Mike, my fav
This was posted just over a month before Davy's passing.
Seeing Mike Nesmith interviewed he always seemed to have a chip on his shoulder.
shame
I Had a Dream about the Monkees last night. It was Really Funny.
LOVE
Robert Michael Nesmith wrote the most amount of released recordings: before and after he became one of the "Monkees." This includes the unreleased recordings. I collected only half of their released recordings. But the thing is: I'm still into collecting the 1980s new age music normally as usual in the long run. Even though I treat eerie, Halloween sounds a lot like if they were music to my ears. 🎶 🎵 😐 😕 🙃 😳 🎶
I saw them in concert at wolftrap in DC around this time.
No...when he lived in the UK
Wow - I never noticed it before, but Davy sure looks like Erik Estrada!!
near Scranton PA? I bought their pool it album at a fleamarket and the woman checking us out said he lived near there.
Miss the monkeys show! RIP Davie, Peter and mike
Nesmith doesnt want to say hi to his fans from yes:terday =They Love him::::::
Great 👍interview with Jay Leno! Still so funny!
I just realised that you also had a crush on donny osmond. Me too, that crush is still with me today too, just as it was - oops IS - with Davy. Just as I have never contemplated the death of Donny, I never contemplated the death of Davy either.... and especially not since last year he was a bundle of energy doing the reunion 45th tour and his own series of concert shows. Watching the Monkees shows or anything of him young OR more recent, I can't believe he is gone. Im a broken record I know.
They scream, but I bet none of them actually bought "Justus"...
Justus was a awesome album. 😎
I loved that album.
Me, too, and I bought it.
I did. I have two copies of it. Love it!
The Monkees only get a 3 minute interview? Seriously?????
Is that Josh Brolin?. he was on Jimmy Fallon tonight.
FastgunEd Dennis Miller
Michael Nesmith was the only writer in the group. Correct?
@@2001aspaceoddity Thanks for the clarification.
No, they all wrote at some point, even Davy.
Did you notice that everyone who shook Dennis Miller's hand is DEAD!
What's that supposed to mean?
@@lindas.5191 Peter, and Davy shook his hand and are no longer with us, but Mickey just shook Jay's hand and he is still alive! It's as if Dennis was cursed or something!
@@DanielGonzalez-cs8pr I got it. I just think that's being superstitious. I'm sure there are hundreds of people who've shaken Miller's hand and are still alive.
@@lindas.5191 I don't know, he's got that killer handshake going on there!
@@DanielGonzalez-cs8pr Maybe you ought to do some research on this, perhaps even get the police involved.
Davy seemed quiet
Remember he had a broken leg.
@@mommy2kitty so?
oh.
Peter had the biggest hands.
Mike Nesmith was not doing tour because he was born into BIG MONEY.....guess he didnt' need it, but could have done it for the nostalgia and fans.
daschundloverable Not born into big money. Mom was a secretary who later invented liquid paper. Mike was not on tour because he was running a successful production business and as Micky has said in other interviews, “ he couldn’t just tell his secretary to hold his calls for three months “
Where’s Michael Nesmith?
:)
get over it mike said wow good mickey
This was when late night talk shows didnt project their political beliefs, its when they were entertaining, back then that was their only agenda, after Leno, Letterman and even Craig Ferguson late night tv became politics and sadly i said to hell with them, i dont like anything political and never have and its not why I watched late night tv, the current crop of late night hosts are just totally horrible, I Know in their loser heads they think talking politics is funny, their only agenda is to get you to agree with what political scenario they believe in and they think this is somehow funny but its not and i hope they all find out just how unfunny and unneeded they truly are
lovin peters pants
Tara Obregon Oh yeah!
Very 80s style!
Love Peter.
1:24 - dolenz is annoyed that his joke didn't land well (like it did on the rosie o donnell show - same joke) and that tork is milking it
WHERES MIKE ??
Is that Steven Crowder behind Davy Jones?
Close. Dennis Miller of SNL fame (when SNL was actually funny)
I remember when dennis and jay were funny.
they only got 3 minutes? 😑
Why does Mickey look kind of like Jimmy Page here?
Mickey = LoL
Not a fan of weird al
I hate how tork is sitting. why did he turn into boy george?
RIP Davy 2012
RIP Peter 2019
RIP Mike 2021
I love peter
