I would SWOOOOON over this song because of the close ups on Davy during hte re-runs in c. 1970's! Mike was always my fave - all of them, but Davy here WOWOWOWO! Kim!@@RockStop22
Davy's legs must have been so bruised! I took a hammered dulcimer class once and the instructor had us beat our tiny, light weight hammers against our legs for some exercises. He told us to be gentle or we would be sore and bruised the next day. I laughed. The next day I was sore and bruised.
The blonde with long hair dancing in the flowery dress is gorgeous. She looks like a girl i crushed hard on in school. Haven't seen her since 71. Dont even know she is still alive but still think of her often.
lol! Girls like that usually had the fathers who were capable of ripping a phone book in half! The type when you knocked on her door the whole house shook as he walked to answer it. You always wanted to see what her mom looked like, or if she had an older sister! But that all vanished when Daddy answered the door with an upside down smile on his face. lol! The girl I think of is the one I walked to school holding hands. My older brothers would laugh at us. The little bridge that we would cross over a ravine is still standing, the water is gone, but the bridge remains. And I also wonder who, and where she is now. The schools were very stupid back then. They would take your picture for the class photos, but did not put the names under the students. Smart right? How do you find classmates later?? Anyway, I hope someday you can find your crush. Time may have changed the outside features, but it never changes the heart and mind inside.
@@tomodonovan5931 her father was a marine ww2 korea and vietnam veteran as well so it was even scarier knowing he had already probably killed many men. Lol.
@@jeffboone7959 Yeah, i worked with some of those Vietnam Vets. Their stories would make Rambo's eye's widen! I can't repeat them on social media. They involved a lot of stealth is all I can say. The girl's father was probably deprogrammed successfully, thank goodness. They trained you to freaking kill, and it must have been a hard habit to break after the war. It's funny how the human mind works. Some were good at killing, others not so good. I love any movie about Nam. Casualties Of War, Platoon, Friendly Fire. But I would like to see a really good Korea movie. This girl's father fought in all three wars? He must have loved the military lifestyle! These kids today can meet each other while serving their country. I knew a few who enlisted when they were single with a kid. The military would simply watch the kid while she worked over seas. You get free housing, and that sweet pension after twenty years. You could raise six or seven kids back in the sixties. Not today, you might if you make a lot of sacrifices. But it would be almost impossible to do so. I tell you it's hard trying to find girls you once knew when you started to notice them. They have mostly disappeared, and left no traces of themselves. That's probably why dudes get married, so they don't have to look for them. I never married. There was too much eye candy!
I love the Monkees and this song, but you can see that Mike Nesmith was not into this at all! I know he hated all the lip sinking they had to do. Great memories though! 🥰🥰
No, Kurt was 16 when this episode was produced and had previously starred in several Disney movies. But his father Bing Russell appeared in the original Monkees pilot.
God bless Micky Dolenz for keeping the legacy of the Monkees intact. Davy Jones, Peter Tork, and Michael Nesmith all left us much too soon.
And there was one. RIP Mike Nesmith.
Now it's just, Monkee.
The Monkees always put a smile on my face.
and that what its all about
@@sjmuffler1: 🙂😇✌️
They used to be on sat morning tv with the banana splits, I’d give my right arm to be back there again
@@santorini8423: Your comment put a smile on my face😃. Thank you for that. Personally I wish I could go back to yesterday.🙃 Stay healthy amigo.✌️
My all time favorite Monkee video from the TV series. RIP Rose Marie 28 December 2017.
Earliest Neil Diamond is the best Neil Diamond.
I don't think there is a bad period of Neil Diamond. And "Pretty Amazing Grace" might be one of the best songs he's written.
Yoo thanks for uploading. My favorite song
IT TRULY IS A SHAME THAT DAVY IS NO LONGER WITH US ! TRUE STAR POWER !
This was about their best song for me 2:19
I had such a crush on Davy Jones when I was a little girl. My older brothers teased me about it. Now I’d say hell yeah he’s cute 😂
Me too and yes he is!

I"m a straight dude who wasn't even born when this show originally aired and I think I somehow have a mancrush on him too ol
Cutest guy EVER!❤❤❤❤
@@ohanaathletics8953me with Mike Nesmith, ive had a man crush on him since i was like 12 😂
R.I.P DAVY AND PETER
And now Mike
My favorite Monkees song. ♥️
Two Arabs were listening to this song and said, "I don't understand what the big deal was. Why couldn't he just marry both of them?"
my favorite monkee song!!!!!
Mine too!
this is as good as it gets
once a week i'm watching this. music saved the world.......

Foot-tapping song! Suitable for many 60's dance styles!
the dancing is awesome! that's how me and my cats and chicks danced into the 70's and beyond!
Happy Birthday to Mike and Davy!
That kid doing the frug or Watusi always cracks me up. 0:48 a young Kurt Russell joins the party.
I had to use a capo on second fret to match monkeys verison.

I've been wondering who that girl is myself.
@@chuckwest7045 I did some looking but it appears all of the kids in this episode went uncredited
Very underrated! My favorite
Mine too, i think Neil Diamond wrote it.
@@davidsadler7047 he did..
Well, it wasn’t underrated when it came out🤷♀️. But yeah, it’s not a Monkees “classic”. It’s my personal hands down favorite
friggin -awesome!
Love the keyboard in this song.
Ahhh, I've always loved Davy Jones! I wish I could have met him. He seemed like such a gentleman.
Yeah Leslie Ferragamo as "Alice"!
Singing a song about an impending break-up, at a wedding reception - only the Monkees could pull that off 😅
I bet a lot of wedding bands play Fleetwood Mac tunes though...
So that’s where the origin of the ‘High-Five’ came from.
For the Very Easily Offended… this is strictly satirical.
Sixties dancing……
IMO, Peter had the most fun lip sinking their videos.
Neil Diamond song.
The Beatles didn't play a single note on this song!! All done by an orchestra 😊
TRESPASSING SPIRIT THROUGH THE TREE OF LIFE AND ONE TURNED TO WOOD ALREADY
He was a great vocalist,many songs he sang,
RIP DAVY PETER MIKE R0SE MARIE 🥹
You're the best, Charlie Babblett
Yes! Love it! I remember it well. And Davy was my first crush.
The Monkees dance is the best
Yeah to Leslie Ferragamo!
Yeah! LESSLIE FERRAGAMO!
Are you sure? Looks like Rose Marie to me.
It IS Rose Marie! SHe is great! @@davidbethke5463
The monkees lo máximo!!
❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊
Who disliked this

Him having to stand face-to-face & high-five with Peter didn't help (they didn't like each other)
Actor Kurt Russell is one of the kids dancing in this video!!
Which one?
No, Kurt was 16 when this episode was produced and had previously starred in several Disney movies. But his father Bing Russell appeared in the original Monkees pilot.
@chuckwest7045 the one hamming it up doing the jumping splits
@@keithidotait is so him.
Stop the clip at the 0:10 mark, you'll clearly see that neither of those two young actors are Kurt Russell
That's Kurt Russell dancing doing the jumping splits
