Best song of their best album. One of the songs I find myself singing more. And when I stop singing it can't help seguing it with CTA 102.

@gadzo0ks And I'm not knocking the Byrds they were one of my favorite bands at that time..In fact the reason I'm listening to this is that the band I was in at the time did this song as well.

@gadzo0ks So wrong...Harrison was playing the Rick 12 much sooner than McGuinn...The Byrds emulated the Beatles whenever they could...Fact
-
The byrds... what can I say. They are true artists.
-
There can be no real comparison to the the Beatles, since they had no twelve string player. Roger Mcguinn had no comparison for the time, even if that time is any time.

Weren't the Beatles still producing some of their best stuff in 1967? It would have been old fashioned two or three years later- I would be surprised if it wasn't still current in 1967.

@nickdetroit1 WHO COULD NOT LIKE THIS SONG.

"Younger Than Yesterday" is a competitor with "Mr. Tambourine Man" and "Sweetheart of the Rodeo" for best Byrds album. Any of their first seven albums are worth having. This song is my favorite Byrds song; with those harmonies, along with that aggressive, quasi-psychedelic guitar interplay...just amazing. It goes to show what a sonic wasteland FM has become. Classic rock stations should be playing the hell out of this song.

It is a shame and also amazing Chris was only 20 when he wrote this. A shame because he should have been the leader of the band. This song shows he was arguably the best songwriter in the band. Crosby should have just shut up on his ranting, played guitar & sung harmony. This is sort of a Calif Mersey Beat sound. Most US groups trying to compete with Brit Invasion were trash. This is great. The band members were fighting and the mgmt was even worse supposedly. Sad,

@genericgeorge bullshit
It never ceases to amaze me that Chris Hillman came from out of nowhere to dominate the songwriting on Younger Than Yesterday. His vocal contributions, both lead and harmony, helped fill the void left by Gene Clark's departure, although in a sense Gene was truly irreplaceable.
