California Dreamin' [W/ Lyrics]

[AyeshaBabiieXOX]

i done a dance performance to this song

[sensfan10000]

This is the definitive song of the flower power generation imo and im young!

[rca1963able]

first of all it was for the hippies and counter culter;and what freedom are you talkin about my Mom out ranked my Dad when they met in the service years ago,and she decided she would stay home,because thats what they both agreed on if my Mom would of said ill continue to work and put the kids in day care my Dad probably questioned it at first but if that what she wanted to do was she had free will,but you make it sound like it was a revolution and you thanked God,the women weren't forced

[642maria]

u guys know that this song is in 'THE HILLS HAVE EYES" part 1 that is.

[kvelman98]

This song isn't of my generation. Yet I love it <3

[SmileyTVO]

this was the version i was looking for >:D

[naomitje130795]

14 people had there screen upside down

[ahvipea3]

BEST PART 0:45

[ahvipea3]

@kolilil Seal on stopped into a church. ikka veel pole aru saand loll.

[Protectereli]

Mirkoooo crooo cop!!!!!!

[Dakathy506]

im just kilsting to this for a project great -.-

[BlackerPain]

Fucking nice soooong

[crowskiss]

Always reminds me of my choir days as an alto :) one of the easiest and most beautiful songs to sing with a choir

[CYDAQUIL123]

ahhh 70.s an 60,ss goood times lolollolo

[MrDanilote]

11 people do not have brain

[Fusilamonstruos]

Viva californiaaaaaaa

[KaitsBaby0514]

I'm a 90's baby but I love music back from the doo wop days and music before my time

[AKix32296]

Reading the Bible and listening to this song.... <3

[cindyatodoritmo]

is a great song

[aliasgirl47]

If it wasn't for hippies and the counterculture of the 60s, women wouldn't have the freedom they have today. They'd all be stuck in their houses all day like back in the 50s. Thank God for the 60s revolution!!!!!

[misszoey2442]

I'm learning this song in my choir at school lol =) i'm the echoes in it ^_^

[sandrastar01]

CALIFORNIA !!!

[LaffinPumpkin]

drugs make great songs :)

[AlexaSapphire00]

[afrundzhyan75]

I Have alwas loved this song

[actressgirl2014]

This song, along with California Gurls and Hotel California are my high school band's Field Show this year. =)

[lunalove555]

omg you're right. i sang this in my choir haha

[FireZelda248]

I remember this song from The Hills Have eyes 2006 remake although i think it was a different version.

[franion]

the music is very good, but the words are poor...

[Flippy779]

..back when music wasn't dependent on technology, back when good music was nothing more than some good vocals and a little guitar and flute, back when music was music :)

[verticalsoda]

For anyone who doesn't know this, The Mamas & The Papas sing "California Dreaming"... Not the Beatles. You people need to get your facts straight.

[gamer19988]

there really is no reason for a dislike button on this song

[sunnydale22]

@gamer19988 In such utter agreement with you.

[rca1963able]

@gamer19988 i used to get inspired by this song until i read the lyrics i thought they said"stopped by a Church along the way and i began to pray it say s "i pretend to pray;maybe if he would of really prayed he could of got off his daughter and drugs

[gamer19988]

@rca1963able i know he says pretend i have ever since the third or fourth time i heard this song plus nothing in this song inspired me i just really like it

[fluffybuffy101]

sang this for chorus, pretty good song

[shingo576]

honestly i love The Beatles and im only 12

[SpadedDominic]

@shingo576 lol, this isn't even The Beatles.

[tacobellchuaua693]

its not the beatles

[verticalsoda]

@shingo576 The Mamas & The Papas sing this song... not the Beatles.

[AmberDrew11]

really i sing this for chorus lol i love this song

[pockyragan]

The thing that kills me the most about this song: The words are "I pretend to pray" and about 94% of the times I see the lyrics printed it says "I BEGAN/BEGIN to pray" (I dunno if some people can't handle the possibility of the implied athiesm that in that he was only pretending or something but it makes me mad) so Thank you for keeping true to the real lyrics!

[lucashp550]

@pockyragan Im a christian and I noticed the implied atheism and I thought it was an interesting part of the song, I didn't know some people think it says "I began to pray" but I do wonder what the official lyrics are, just incase if those are actually the real lyrics.

[Guitarninja0]

The choir I'm in sung this

[Velvetdrummer]

I grew up listening to The Mamas and the papas. Thx tolks for great music. I am now passing on this music to my children.

[pockyragan]

@Velvetdrummer lol I grew up in the early 90's and this is the good music my parents raised me on. XD (My Grandma raised me on older country music too, and Big Band type music XD) I'm in my 20's now and I still take The Mamas and the Papas over this rap "music" we have today!

[xxpauliegunzxx]

This song reminds me of how nice California USED TO be. It really is a shame what has happened to California, and the rest of the World for that matter...

[margies47]

It's a great song, but the words aren't times right, the words are a bit slower, can you fix this, or re-do it? Just asking, because this is a song my husband wants to someday duet with me on the song. Thank you for trying. :)

[lizzy688977]

i freakin love this song!! i cnt stop listenin 2 it! love it!! :)

[BookwormI7]

I really want my chorus to do this.

[daisylulucrazy]

we sing this song in chorous!!! <3

[selnabeanacheese]

me and my mum harmanise to this

[GoldyRocks1234]

This song brings back good memories :)

[AnAngryPasta]

@GoldyRocks1234 Oh... the birds and the bees?

[TheVietnameseUke]

I didn't like 60's music but I didn't give it a fair chance. I thought that 60's music was old and boring and hippy-crack like music, but I got a chance to listen to it and they're pretty catchy :)

[je13y]

i am 14 years old and I don't care who's maded this song. but there's one thing for sure, i like this song!!!!

[sandrastar01]

This song is awesome and so is the beatles

[ff75ef]

[alpinweiss]

Hope everyone awknowledged not to sing when there is a "instrumental solo..."

[bobjz1]

The lyrics lag the song. That's not the way it's supposed to be.

[Brandon2119891]

I always hear this on the radio cool song. I like the part when he says: IF I DIDN'T TELL HER I COULD LEAVE TODAY.

[jame5doe]

[sarahgrulz]

[serbiengirl96]

[2Guys1Contour]

I am a huge fan of The Beatles, I don't really get how people think this is by The Beatles, It has a female background, which The Beatles never used Female background vocals untill the later days!

[MonsterEnergy160]

[SaintPaul122]

[Redtrooper2]

I think it's actually "you know the preacher locks the door" that makes more sense with the guy saying his next line "I'm gonna stay"

[FirestormSonamy]

Why do people think this is the Beatles??? No!! What??? O.O

Great song ;D

[OxAeroBabixO]

@FirestormSonamy Hahaha I bet people (ignorant people) think everything in the music world was done by the Beatles in the '60s (well ignorant people think it was the 70s not the 60s haha)

[haole59]

@OxAeroBabixO iii it was 1965 mamas and papas

[ladyKatelyn]

@OxAeroBabixO truly ignorant ppl don't know who the beatles were :D

[GorgeBteibet]

[iliana1604]
