I'm so glad I bought this vinyl last week for 99 cents. IT WAS 99 cents. And when I came back, I was like. WOAHHHHHHH. AWESOMEE. but now I need to buy my own turntable :C. I'll just go to my friend's house to keep listening them them :D
Periperigord is correct in both usage & in stating that the grammar issue refers to mood, not tense. However, so many people, even educated ones, have dropped the use of the subjunctive "were" & instead use the indicative "was", that it has become acceptable to use the indicative. Remember, language is constantly evolving.
sorry but why are you having a grammar nazi discussion about the spelling of the lyrics. it's a beautiful song so go be a grammar nazi somewhere else like the white house , they could use one !
Issued statement reads due to "..irreconciliable differences...We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your continued support of The Monkees."
You gotta check out the Liverpool Five tune "She's" on U Tube. Boyce and Hart had heard that and wrote a different tune with almost the same title. The Monkees recorded in the same studio as the LP5 ( RCA in LA) and also that's where they first heard " I'm not your stepping stone" and decided to do their own version.
first of all to all the negative remarks made in regards to the Monkees / why do people have to be so judgemental when it comes to musicians bands singers songwriters etc. / its usually the people that arent an artist or singer or musician or in band. first of all you think its so easy then you get up there and perform and write good songs that will be nujmner one hits. i am a singer songwriter and have been in many rock bands lead singer and lyricist over the years and it isnt easy/ to be con
compare them to the BEATLES...????? GET A GRIP> they were a great band somewhat...but the music was canned and not even them playing for the most part...i loved the show, it was true comedy. just sayin....and YES, i AM a Beatles fan from the word go...but i'm also on this page rght now.... Peace.
just saw the monkees live... wish i had been around in the '60's. if i say anything about the monkees to my friends they start screaming at me to "shut up about the freakin' monkees! their music sucks!" No appreciation of good music. It's all katy perry this and justin beiber that. blah
i wish you people would stop relating them to the beatles! they were made up to be competition for them, but that doesn't mean you have to keep telling me this! we get it!
@benvanlieshout i didn't notice that until you pointed it out,but you're right.More of the Monkees and Rubber Soul album covers do resemble each other.
This was the very first "rock and roll" album I ever bought. I played it until it literally wouldn't play any more. Too many skips and pops, but I kept it anyway. A few weeks ago I found a pristine copy on vinyl in a great used record store in Burbank CA, (Atomic Records) . Not only did it LOOK like new, it PLAYED like new! SWEEEET!
Sorry, have to contend with you on this one. It's the subjunctive case, like the song "If I WERE a rich Man", or the Bible verse "Though he WERE a Son" (Hebrews 5:8). This is not a case of singular vs. plural.
@AvocadoTomato Here, 'were' is the conditional usage. The conditional tense is used in cases of non probability as in the sentence sung by the Monkees: 'Wishing she were here'. She's not here and by using 'were' the Monkees are stating that they think it unlikely that she will arrive. The sentence could continue in this vein: if she were here we would....... Wish + were + would = unlikely to happen
@periperigord Not tense - mood. Tense shows time. Mood shows the state of the speaker's mind. If you are being factual you are speaking in the indicative mood. If you are not being factual you are speaking in the subjunctive mood. I am not, in fact, rich - therefore I say "if I WERE rich I'd live in a big house". Bill Gates is, in fact, rich - therefore he can say "I AM rich, I live in a big house".
@Gravano2: THank you for the input on your Monkees concert!! I go NEXT FRIDAY (6/26/11) to see these guys and am so psyched you cannot believe!!! The only song I don't know word for word is "Goin' Down" which Micky did 2 years ago when he was on tour...and I STILL could not understand what he was saying, even after all these years!! Will post you a heads-up on how the show pans out...I plan on being right up front!!!!
@jonskleinman I did too, in the late 1980's when nickelodeon was playing the re-runs. I really love you tube,I'm now showing the vids & music to my own kids....that's 3 generations. :)
@susan94546: OMG! Susan, the boys are TOURING as we speak!!! Micky, Pete and Davy are doing shows without Mike and I am going to see them in Columbus OH next month!!!! Check the Monkees' website and see where they will be in your area...it will be sooooo worth the effort to go see them...I saw Micky 2 years ago when he was touring with his sister Coco and he was spectacular...imagine how all 3 of them will sound these days!
Boy, I remember when my neighbor got this new album and brought it over to play it. That was a really exciting thing for a 5th grader who never had any money to buy records.
@marksmail2 I can relate... My brother, sister and I spent every cent we got on music. Took a while to save up money for Beatles, Beach Boys and Monkees albums. Hello to a fellow Monkees fan !! This song Rocks !!
This is a great song; I'm surprised it's not covered more. Love the production, I've just headphones on: instruments out of the left side, backing vocals out of the right and Mickey's voice in the center.
People can say what they want about the Monkees not playing their instruments and all the other criticisms, but so many of their songs are well-written and well-produced, and Mickey had one of the best voices of that era.
Sigh still love these guys...got all their records but no record player these days...thanks YouTube and to all who put such gems on here. I just wish I could download all my favourites onto my computer...that would be ace.
@sanham1954 If you have realplayer, then you can easily download youtube-videos and lots of other videos on the internet on to your computer. The free version of realplayer is good enough for doing things like these.
@AmethystApple People are entitled to their opinion on any subject, what you may like may not be liked by others. Using the Parkinson example betrayed your immaturity. You made crass statement and got called on it, live with it. I didn't curse, I used profanity to explain my distaste for a little drip of sperm and fecal matter not worth what sits on the bottom of a stable floor.
@AmethystApple Hey, you're the one who made fun of people with Parkinsons. Don't tell me you didn't, because that's exactly what you did, and I don't believe your bullshit about grandma. You're just looking to cover for your stupidity and ignorance. No amount of bullshit will convince me you're not an immature asshole.
You are being ignorant, and a "Piece of shit", because she has it, and she is 80, and I never really got to speak to when she was ok, thus I never actually had a 2nd grandma, and now she is my only grandma, since last month.
So I don't need you to believe me. I won't say I don't believe your story about your father, because I have feelings and I am somehow human.
@AmethystApple Poor baby, and I'm suppose to feel sorry for you. If it really mattered to you, you wouldn't have used the disease to mock somebody else. You're pathetic. A real sensitive human wouldn't have used the term, so cut the shit. I don't really care if you believe me or not, you've been exposed for the asshole you are, you're just sorry I called you on it.
@AmethystApple Must people who are exposed as assholes, run and hide when I beat them. If you really cared about people suffering from Parkinson's you would either had the moral fortitude to not use the word, or once caught in your mistake, you wouldn't have tried to rationalize your lapse in good judgement. Now go run along.
"The Monkees" was on TV when I was in 4th & 5th grade. All of their songs bring back memories of the carefree days of my youth. This is one of my rave faves!
Yes, the songs were practically all written by contract songwriters, the musicians were probably L.A.'s renowned "Wrecking Crew" studio musicians. But still, song for song, a really, really good album.
The Monkees was one of the lucky rock bands that featured two good lead singers. And two of the the greatest songwriters wrote their music--Boyce and Hart.
Interesting point but based on your point we understand why The Beatles were the greatest-2 great singers who just happened to be the best songwriters too and a third singer/songwriter who became a force himself at the midpoint of their career and hell even the drummer sang a few songs that were fed to him giving us a 4th lead singer,he even gave us 2 of his own comps. too!
Long live JOHN PAUL GEORGE and RINGO THE INCREDIBLE BEATLES with over 1.3 BILLION albums sold.
Hey, these guys still sang, just like Ma-hosequeen (madonna) If she can get in, then the Monkees too, simply because they actually did something for music by bringing a bit of rock n roll to kids like me way back in the day. It was the first actual music television. If they arent allowed in, then there shouldnt be ANY artist who sampled another artists music and made a career of it, inducted into the hall of fame. The Monkees gave us "THE VIDEO".

The Rock and Roll hall of fame wont induct these guys because they said they werent a real band. But they had no problem inducting the Queen of Karaoke Madonna do they? It seems money talks. A bitch who merely sings on other peoples songs and recordings, and lip synchs on stage. You want to know how fucked up the R&R hall of fame is? The Stray Cats are still not in it even though they started their careers the same time as the Queen of Karaoke, AND actually played ROCK AND ROLL!!!!!
@JamesTKirkCobain Hey I was reading about the sex pistols the other day for some reason and when they were invited to attend their induction into the r&r hall of fame, they collectivly said " where not going, the R&R hall of fame is a piss stain"
@buddha860 they don't belong there anyhow.....what song can you tell me about from them?.......yeah they were Punk Rockers...big Trucken Deal I thought that those were the WORST times for Rock & roll......Let's all Piss on them see what they think.
@SHONA825 Punk rock sucked. Sucks. It will suck. It is gay. Rebelling in name brand clothes is gay. Fashion fags.."oh..no..we don't care what people think of us".....hahahahahaha....Sid Vicious was a glamor boy fag.
I must have been 11 or 12 years old when I first heard this song. I wouldn't have a girlfriend for another 7 or 8 years later. Yes, I was one of those socially awkward kids that preferred algebra to snogging. The latter just didn't happen to be in the curriculum. Otherwise, I would have been quite the honor student. Anyway, I think I owned every Monkee album. I got older. I moved onto harder rock and discovered snogging. Lucky me. lol
this is a good album. i listened to it right along with everything else back then. people dont realize that the Monkees songs were written by some of the best contract songwriters in the biz back then.
This is Rock/Pop Recording Artist Robert Nix-I special ordered this CD filled with great Rock/Pop Songs such as 'She','When Love Comes Knocking At Your Door' and Mike Nesmith's 'Mary Mary'.
THIS is the one that should be covered by other artists...Excellent lyrics and music... It would never be good as the Monkees...but I don't understand why there aren't lots of covers of this song... It's soooooo awesome!!
I always loved Mickey Dolenz' voice, such a sweetness and versatile range. I lived and loved to these songs in my pre-teen years. I came to expect guys to feel this way for me and wanted that all my life, never really had it, at least not that any of them would admit to me, lol.
The Monkees were art, soul, and great talent. What better proof than their songs are alive today now more than ever. Some music writers were so damn jealous of them they had venom with every word. These no talent wonders should've just shut up and cranked up the Monkees and enjoyed life.

Yes, the songs were practically all written by contract songwriters, the musicians were probably L.A.'s renowned "Wrecking Crew" studio musicians. But still, song for song, a really, really good album.

The Monkees was one of the lucky rock bands that featured two good lead singers. And two of the the greatest songwriters wrote their music--Boyce and Hart.

Interesting point but based on your point we understand why The Beatles were the greatest-2 great singers who just happened to be the best songwriters too and a third singer/songwriter who became a force himself at the midpoint of their career and hell even the drummer sang a few songs that were fed to him giving us a 4th lead singer,he even gave us 2 of his own comps. too!
Long live JOHN PAUL GEORGE and RINGO THE INCREDIBLE BEATLES with over 1.3 BILLION albums sold.

Well put James T Kirk Cobain.
Hey, these guys still sang, just like Ma-hosequeen (madonna) If she can get in, then the Monkees too, simply because they actually did something for music by bringing a bit of rock n roll to kids like me way back in the day. It was the first actual music television. If they arent allowed in, then there shouldnt be ANY artist who sampled another artists music and made a career of it, inducted into the hall of fame. The Monkees gave us "THE VIDEO".

The Rock and Roll hall of fame wont induct these guys because they said they werent a real band. But they had no problem inducting the Queen of Karaoke Madonna do they? It seems money talks. A bitch who merely sings on other peoples songs and recordings, and lip synchs on stage. You want to know how fucked up the R&R hall of fame is? The Stray Cats are still not in it even though they started their careers the same time as the Queen of Karaoke, AND actually played ROCK AND ROLL!!!!!

@JamesTKirkCobain Hey I was reading about the sex pistols the other day for some reason and when they were invited to attend their induction into the r&r hall of fame, they collectivly said " where not going, the R&R hall of fame is a piss stain"

I must have been 11 or 12 years old when I first heard this song. I wouldn't have a girlfriend for another 7 or 8 years later. Yes, I was one of those socially awkward kids that preferred algebra to snogging. The latter just didn't happen to be in the curriculum. Otherwise, I would have been quite the honor student. Anyway, I think I owned every Monkee album. I got older. I moved onto harder rock and discovered snogging. Lucky me. lol

I always loved Mickey Dolenz' voice, such a sweetness and versatile range. I lived and loved to these songs in my pre-teen years. I came to expect guys to feel this way for me and wanted that all my life, never really had it, at least not that any of them would admit to me, lol.

The Monkees were art, soul, and great talent. What better proof than their songs are alive today now more than ever. Some music writers were so damn jealous of them they had venom with every word. These no talent wonders should've just shut up and cranked up the Monkees and enjoyed life.
