These guys were from my city, Newport, RI. Susan Cowsill is a little younger than me. Kind of tragic family story actually...out of respect for them I won't dredge up the family stuff. Susan went on to make interesting music. One of them, Barry, died in New Orleans during Katrina. His life had not turned out well prior to his unfortunate death.
@hartley81848184 Not sure if you mean them or me? My father wasn't it the navy but, if I remember correctly, the Cowsill's father may have been a retired naval officer stationed in Newport. He put a LOT of pressure on the family to conform and succeed. Any yes, I do believe the Partridge Family idea was hatched due to them.
@captbanjo1 Yes that's true. I lived in nearby Fall River Ma.when they first beacme popular. In fact the theme song of the first year of the Partridge Family was sung by the Cowsills. "Come on down and meet everybody, and hear us singing"
the Cowsills were offered the Partridge Family, they tuned it down , because the network insisted that Shirley Jones play the mom ! if not for that, nobody woulda ever heard of David Cassidy (spell,check)... but the 60s movement wouldnt be the same without david , dressed like Elvis in concert singin I think i love you!!lol..
I love it when I hear a song & it just transends color barriers. I could be with some of my boys just hanng'n & a song like this or many others on the same level. I will stop & listen & might sing along or hum. & if you saw me you would just laugf. Cause I look as if I was straight outta compton & wouldn't even kw anything about this kind of music. But the truth be told, I prefer this & doo woop over hardcore Hip-hop anyday. It takes me back to more simplier time & place. I do love it.
If you're a fan of The Cowsills, you'll probably like the fun and free weekly podcast, Echo Valley, which celebrates the great bubblegum music from the 1960's and 1970's! There's Cowsills music almost every week! Give it a try! Just Google "Echo Valley Bubblegum"!

Reminds me of how innocent things used to be and the freedom we used to have. There was a sense back then that we were all important no matter what career you chose. Even the mail man was well respected. Most of us had a sense of purpose and a sense of well being that is gone today.
@duh77889900112233445 It was a great time, wish you could have been a part of it all. People got along better, things like road rage didn't exist, people didn't hassle each other like they do now, I miss those days, and the music that was a part of it all.
Everyone with an IQ high enough to write and low enough to think they're being clever made the same stupid gap-tooth comments more than 40 years before you.
How I agree, I was born in 1951. 1967 and 1968 were def the best years of my life, and the music too, The Moody Blues are THE best, but they never come to Australia, I was in the UK and they were touring Ipswich, in Suffolk, but I couldn't get tickets!!
thanks, great stuff that will last and bring a smile on the worst of days. can't imagine how anyone can not get the thumb up for this. probably not all.
I remember the summer of '67 or '68, they performed on the ABC television show "Operation Entertainment" recorded live at Fort Gordon, Georgia. I remember because my mother worked at the hospital there and it was big news when they were there. We watched it later on television. I had a playtape machine with a Cowsills cartridge with four songs on it. "We Can Fly" "Indian Lake" "The Rain The Park & Other Things' "What is Happy", some of my favorite music of that time.
I have tears running down my face right now. I miss the 60s. I miss this music. It was innocent, happy. We live in a much different world now and I dispair.
@oneloneogre Yes! Innocent songs of the 60's - early 70's such as: "Two Faces Have I", "Downtown", "Feelin' Groovy", "Brand New Key", "Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep", "1,2,3, Red Light", "Hitchin a Ride"... etc. etc. are in a class by themselves. A simpler era that shall never be repeated. Sure it wasn't a perfect world even then, but it was a 'ell of a lot better than it is today.
Pretty Much!!!! Sad Excuse for Music for the most part , Not Nearly as Innocent and Happy times as then like one "loneqre" posted , Alot of " Mean Street " Mentality" People on guard , Neighbors stand offish alot, No Variety shows on tv , no american bandstands , no real reason to put bunch of rappers spewin there disgusting shit on a variety show , should of been banned period , Now Morgan Freeman on CNN other day saying if you dont like Obamas Policys your a racist ,Period!! Amazing!!!
@oneloneogre I'm with ya brother.....what is frightening is that the innocent mindset we had as kids at that time is becoming very much absent in today's kids. The 60's are sure drifting away.
Well, it was pretty innocent if you were a kid. But, if you were old enough to understand MLK and Bobby getting blown away in the same year, the body bags of Vietnam and screaming napalim kids and the Watts riots and black people having to riot so they could start going to the bathroom.... and the Cuban Missile Crisis.... well, the music, thank god, made it good. It was good and bad. But it was definitely better than this crapola world we live in now.
@hartley81848184 I don't necessarily agree that the world of 2011 is 'crapola'. More people have rights now than ever did before - can you imagine gay marriage being legalized in 1968? And I'd rather have a world with the Internet and cel phones than without them. However, what -does- bother me is the me-first-and-f-you attitude that's so fashionable among kids. Their hatred of schooling, too, means their minds never get broadened.
I was born in 1960 and loved all this free flowing music and grew up believing in the age of enlightenment. And the public changed and opened up to new thoughts and ideas and were'nt so stuffy and old fashioned. And then the 70's and everybody had fun. But something happened along the way and these past several generations have not progressed into enlightenment but serious division and separation and are returning to the old way of thinking very old fashioned.
@MrSmokeydog - I love what you wrote. It is so true and sad. What DID happen? The 2000's are just ugh. How did everything and so many people get so uptight again. I was reprimanded the other evening for smoking an electronic cig (vapor stick) at a gambling casino. There's no smell, no fire, no carcinogen ... wtf?
@MsThebeMoon Damned straight. Youngsters today can't begin to imagine what laid back attitudes prevailed in daily life back then. Better days no doubt. Maybe it has something to do with the population being 1/2 of what it is today. More and more the USA is becoming a third world totalitarian regimen with each passing day. Pretty soon you won't be able to fart w/o a permit. I'm just glad I'm old enough to remember freer days & thank my Gods I won't live long enough to see the worst to come.

Knowing what happened to Barbara, Billy and Barry makes seeing this video a bit bitter sweet. But it's nice to go back to the fall of 1967 when this song first came out
and things were just beginning to happen for the Cowsills. I wonder if they got the family rate on the bus?
When we wake up to the truth of life, inspired music like this will emerge and flourish again. Search "Truth Contest" in Google and click the 1st result, then open The Present and read what it says to learn the truth.
I could have gotten shot but I could not help it. This song came on the FM as I came to a stop. There was a gang of Banger on that corner. I BLASTED THEM with this SONG~!
They didn't dig it. But I hit them withthe pos vib.....n drove on. My idea of a drive-by ...of SUNSHINE!
Thanx for the post-this song and The Cowsill's are all that!They did much more than this-but I thought I should let everyone know that the Cowsills Influenced the Partriged Family, to sing bubble-gum music...Mamas and the Papas?
Born in 62 I love songs where boys and girls sing together like the Cowsills,Mamas & Papas, Spanky and Our Gang,Friend & Lover,The Carpenters, and The Archies. You don't hear groups or songs like this these days. Though it was refreshing last year to hear Leighton Meester of Gossip Girl.Country Strong and Roommates fame sing with the boys in last years hit song Good Girls Gone Bad
Ummm, I was born in 1952, for many years this song was an important part of my life...then of course as anyone who was there knows, there came the Moody Blues...
@dumboldon Ah! Yes! The Moody Blues. I was in TX. in the Air Force. I almost wore the albums out I played them so much. Still have them. Still love em. .I also still love the Cowsills too.
I was a "closet" bubblegum rocker. While I listened to The Doors, Beatles, Floyd, and others, I listened to bands like the Sills because it was good music. I also kept my "secret" crush on Susan Cowsill who was about my same age. Guys my age were only supposed to like the older chicks. The stuff we did do stay In. Now I'll say it, The Cowsills were great!
This is bubble gum candy rock, '' But anyone who knows music would have to say it is a good song...Even if they don't like bubble gum, (sugar sugar) Archie's, Partridge family peacock music,'' I don't know for sure but when this song came out beach boys were to busy partying trying to get a''charles mansion'' song? They probably wanted to get in the ''family' because a dirty magic bus,''makes things a lot more tougher, And on a farm, Its like,''today's pig is tomorrow's bacon (dirty hippies)lol
@jsilence418 L.S.D Shit i wish, Sometimes it seems lsd has made people smarter? As long as it wasnt taken extreme,''The most successfull side of my familly took lsd? Im just a little slow naturally,'' Believe me it kinda sucks..Why is it when i get on music that was made when i was born ( before my time) Lsd is always mentioned? !lmao
@jsilence418 Cary grant huh? What a trip, never would have expected that dude,'' The guy that all the women loved back then,'' He was in the movie ''gone with the wind? Yeah dude,'' i heard that the founders of alcoholics anonymous used lsd on their patients and more than half of them recovered,'' which is more than any rehab programs ive heard of,'' I know some rehabs totally lie about their 86 percent succsess rate sobriety,'' That's comming from the voice of experience,'' lol. Cowsills shred
This song makes me happy. The Cowsill family was just too cute! It's too bad that this kind of music isn't popular anymore. The 60s had the best style of music. I wish that I had been around to see it...
Why in all innocence does a song from the 60's turn intop a religious forum. BowlView according the the bible we all came from Adam & Eve. The"flood" didn't cover the whole world. There is physically not enough water on it for that to happen. So others would have survived the deluge and gone on to procreate. So what has all this got to do with a song from the 60's? Absolutely nothing.
I was in Newport, RI on a military base housing while my dad was in War College. The Cantee-a teen youth center- "let " thjs family play-I was 10 or so andremeber it. Never put it together until this came out and figured it out.
@bowlview I feel sorry for you. A beautiful world and you can only think with the mind of a troglodyte. "As God beautifies the garden with many different colors of flowers, so He beautifies the world with many different colors of people." I would not like to be someone who is full of dissatisfaction and malice. I wouldn't want to be like you. I'm happy-you never will be...
@bowlview If you believe in the Bible, you will see that ALL people in the world came from Noah and his sons. How can any person be an ape? If you believe white scientists, ALL people came from a woman in Africa.
If you're a complete fool, you will believe the way you do. I feel so sorry for you. You will always be unhappy. Ask God to purify your heart...
to all the young listeners the Cowsills were a real family group unlike most other families, they were the choice for a TV show named the Partridge Family,who were not family,except mom and David her step child,and the Cowsills were a clean cut family and classy, they turned down the TV show,because the producers had already signed the mom Shirley Jones and the Cowsills said no real mom no cowsills
Was a guilty pleasure for me back when it came out. Wasnt kool at the time to like it, you had to only like Hendrix etc. But no denying the vocal harmonies were great.
Aah ... to reminisce ... Rain Park and "other things" from 1967 - to think this came out at the same time as Sgt Pepper. But I loved the melody then and it still holds up, and what harmony they had. Somewhere along the line the art of singing went away. For example, take two of the bigger stars today - Ri-hanna and Be-ahn-say - they look great but can't sing a note. The real turning point was 1982 and the start of MTV - video did truly "kill" the radio star,
@musikfanat : nope - "the rain, the park, and other things" first charted in late September 1967 and made it to #2 for two weeks in December, being denied the top spot by the Monkees' "Daydream Believer" (a similar type of record, actually) - those were the days when "bubblegum" battled the Beatles for the ears of what we now refer to as the "tweens"...
@sensey07 You said it. I couldn't agree more! Although I think the change for the worse started even earlier, perhaps mid 70s. Music seemed to lose it's meaning, lose it's soul so to speak. Just my opinion though.
@rod1148 The reason I mentioned 1982 and MTV was because once the video component was added to the audio, the fan base changed. How you looked became more important than how you sounded. This is how we now can see even the likes of Paris Hilton and Lindsey Lohan cutting tunes - music is now just another facet of marketing. The Cowsills existed in a time that we can only remember (I am old enough having been born in '56) but never return to - I see many here who feel the same way.
Let me add Crystal Blue Persuasion by Tommy James and the Shondells, 123 by Len Barry, and I'm Your Puppet by James and Bobby Purify among countless others! Every post you made I am in agreement with except for the Beyonce comment....the girl can sing like there was no tomorrow and has talent beyond singing...I'm not blind to real talent!
@ultraroadmap Excellent choices indeed (BTW, Len Barry was the lead singer for the Dovells) ... and yes, I may have been a bit harsh regarding Ms Knowles - but even she seems to be more celebrated for her looks than her sound. Do you recall her making the cover of the SI swimsuit issue? Take the sexiest singer from back in the day (Stevie Nicks? Cher? Petula Clark? Joan Baez? help me out, here...!) - could anyone imagine her on or even in the SI swimsuit issue?
as a kid i remember them on tv and even bob hope's viet nam uso show.i thought they were so cool espeacially since my little crush karen liked them so much.
i remember reading not so lond ago that the family was run by a totally domineering father. if i'm correct, the mother even committed suicide because of him.
They starred in their own television special, called A Family Thing, in November 1968 on NBC, which guest-starred Buddy Ebsen.[5] By 1969 Screen Gems approached the family to portray themselves in their own TV sitcom, but when they were told that their mother was to be replaced by actress Shirley Jones the deal fell through. Screen Gems later hired David Cassidy to join the cast and the show went on to be called The Partridge Family,
Right on, romt2010! I was born in '61, popular music in the 60's really expanded. Think of how the spectrum widened...from Beatles, to Jimi Hendrix, 1910 Fruitgum Company to Led Zepelin, Judy Collins to Janis Joplin...the list goes on forever.
This song was sent to me while I was in the Army stationed in exotic Southeast Asia. I liked it and it gave me an idea of the current music trend at that time. It helped me get through some tough times and by the Grace of God I brough that record home with me, but sadly left many friends behind. Music had changed and so had my world.
@rvictor64 yes so much has changed.The music then came from the heart and ment so much more than todays music.Just glad you were able to come home so many didnt.Theworld and our way of living has changed so much.Thanks for your post and the memories of a forgoten time when things were so different
@randycoward: I grew up in th 50's into the early 60's and always loved the music of that time frame. There were other songs later that I enjoyed such as this one but to this day I still listen to the Oldies of my era. It was one of the things that I had in common with many of my Vietnam Brothers. When we could listen to these songs or get a letter from home, it would bring back fond memories of better days. God Bless them all! Ron
One of the most beautiful songs EVER to be put on vinyl!! This is one of my all-time favorites. These kids had talent, their harmonies are awesome. They don't write 'em like this anymore, sad to say.
I love this kinda stuff, but wasn't this overly happy music that was coming out a way to destract young people from the ugliness and death happening in Vietnam? ....Seems like a pretty dark contrast, correct me if I'm wrong.
.......Maybe that explains Justin Bieber nowadays.
This was in the beautiful Fall of 1967. The Cowsills stood up to Sgt Peppers, The Doors and many other heavyweights of that incredible time. Oh, and Incense and Peppermints was current then, as well as Ultimate Spinach. I was in my freshman year in college / paradise and would gladly give anything I own to go back and do that time again (with what I know now, of course!).
@67rml.....were you 16 as a college Fr.?......Great music; true, but would NOT call it "paradise"......opening the morning paper and reading a Little League teammate had been KIA in Viet?.....total of nine I knew never came home........perhaps "paradise lost" when combined with what transpired over the next 4 years......I'd have preferred a far different time to attend college........I was BC 1971....
I'm lucky, I was born in '62 and distinctly remember hearing songs like this along with Petula Clark - Downtown, Barry Sadler - Ballad of The Green Berets, Beatles - Yellow Submarine, Ohio Express - Yummy Yummy Yummy and so many more. Bless you for posting these videos and letting us relive the good old days!
@rmt2010 Absolutely ... and I may I respectfully add these: 1-2-3 Red Light by 1910 Fruitgum Co; Kind of a Drag by the Buckinghams; Midnight Confessions by the Grass Roots; Green Tambourine by the Lemon Pipers; Build Me Up by the Foundations; and just about anything written by Laura Nyro (performed by 5th Dimension, 3 Dog Night, etc).
I always wanted to be Susan Cowsill and sing in a group. Unfortunately, I'm tone deaf and can't sing a tune to save my life. Oh well, we can dream, can't we?????? LOL!!!
I don't see how this song brings out the racist in people. And I am NOT talkling about whites. Mr. danewson has proven that blacks can be just as racist as whites. Also, he is showing ignorance. Whitie, as you put it, is NOT the source of your problems. You, sir, are the source of your problems. You keep yourself down; from accomplishing all that you can. However, you still blame whitie. Why. Is Whitie keepin you from walking to your local McD's and filling out an app? No, he is not.
Just does not get any better, a song of pure happiness, so uplifting from them times, beautifully sung by this Lovely Family it makes my day, for all days
Mum's sayin'' no fooling around now! no throwin rocks at the ducks, stay on the train, leave the engineer alone, don't tie your sister to the tracks, and no using the F,, word.
@l11432 Yeah if you were white. Things were bad for blacks in the sixties. This video marked the beginning of the end of white only rules. Fucking Crackers.
The original Partridge Family. Very underrated group.

@oneloneogre I'm with ya brother.....what is frightening is that the innocent mindset we had as kids at that time is becoming very much absent in today's kids. The 60's are sure drifting away.

Well, it was pretty innocent if you were a kid. But, if you were old enough to understand MLK and Bobby getting blown away in the same year, the body bags of Vietnam and screaming napalim kids and the Watts riots and black people having to riot so they could start going to the bathroom.... and the Cuban Missile Crisis.... well, the music, thank god, made it good. It was good and bad. But it was definitely better than this crapola world we live in now.

@hartley81848184 I don't necessarily agree that the world of 2011 is 'crapola'. More people have rights now than ever did before - can you imagine gay marriage being legalized in 1968? And I'd rather have a world with the Internet and cel phones than without them. However, what -does- bother me is the me-first-and-f-you attitude that's so fashionable among kids. Their hatred of schooling, too, means their minds never get broadened.

I was born in 1960 and loved all this free flowing music and grew up believing in the age of enlightenment. And the public changed and opened up to new thoughts and ideas and were'nt so stuffy and old fashioned. And then the 70's and everybody had fun. But something happened along the way and these past several generations have not progressed into enlightenment but serious division and separation and are returning to the old way of thinking very old fashioned.

Maybe it has something to do with the population being 1/2 of what it is today. More and more the USA is becoming a third world totalitarian regimen with each passing day.

Knowing what happened to Barbara, Billy and Barry makes seeing this video a bit bitter sweet. But it's nice to go back to the fall of 1967 when this song first came out
and things were just beginning to happen for the Cowsills. I wonder if they got the family rate on the bus?

Why in all innocence does a song from the 60's turn intop a religious forum. BowlView according the the bible we all came from Adam & Eve. The"flood" didn't cover the whole world. There is physically not enough water on it for that to happen. So others would have survived the deluge and gone on to procreate. So what has all this got to do with a song from the 60's? Absolutely nothing.

to all the young listeners the Cowsills were a real family group unlike most other families, they were the choice for a TV show named the Partridge Family,who were not family,except mom and David her step child,and the Cowsills were a clean cut family and classy, they turned down the TV show,because the producers had already signed the mom Shirley Jones and the Cowsills said no real mom no cowsills

Aah ... to reminisce ... Rain Park and "other things" from 1967 - to think this came out at the same time as Sgt Pepper. But I loved the melody then and it still holds up, and what harmony they had. Somewhere along the line the art of singing went away. For example, take two of the bigger stars today - Ri-hanna and Be-ahn-say - they look great but can't sing a note. The real turning point was 1982 and the start of MTV - video did truly "kill" the radio star,

rod1148 10 months ago
@rod1148 The reason I mentioned 1982 and MTV was because once the video component was added to the audio, the fan base changed. How you looked became more important than how you sounded. This is how we now can see even the likes of Paris Hilton and Lindsey Lohan cutting tunes - music is now just another facet of marketing. The Cowsills existed in a time that we can only remember (I am old enough having been born in '56) but never return to - I see many here who feel the same way.

@19darnoc52 Television and The Cowsills
They starred in their own television special, called A Family Thing, in November 1968 on NBC, which guest-starred Buddy Ebsen.[5] By 1969 Screen Gems approached the family to portray themselves in their own TV sitcom, but when they were told that their mother was to be replaced by actress Shirley Jones the deal fell through. Screen Gems later hired David Cassidy to join the cast and the show went on to be called The Partridge Family,
