"And it looks like we made it once again....."

My sister's favorite band is The Monkees. They are not my favorite band, but they are close to it.

Recently I have learned of there movie, HEAD. I have first learned of it when I discovered "Daddy's Song", sung by Davy Jones in HEAD.

"Now the mother did explain, try to take away the pain!
"But he could not understand that his father was not a man,
"And it was all just a game."

-Daddy's Song

From watching clips of it on Youtube, I can tell that it dosn't have a plot.
Micky in the dessert was very random.

"Clicks, Clacks,
"Riding on the backs of giraffes just for laughs is all right for a while."

-Porpoise Song

"Porpoise Song" is as random as "Randy Scouse Git". ( Called "Alternat Tittle" in England. )
It is the theme in HEAD. During the theme, Micky Dolenz is falling down from the sky, falls into water. What happens next? Mermaides and flashy colors!

The Monkees TV show was almost as silly. ( The last episode WAS as silly. )

They each had a role in the show:

Micky Dolenz:

Just plain goofy.

Mike Nesmith:

Sencable(?).

Peter Tork:

The daydreaming kid.

Davy Jones:

The cute girl crazy one from England.

"I myself am upseanly(?) jelius(?)!!"

-Peter Tork "The Monkees" episode 12: "To Many Girls"

"But the porpoise is waiting, good-bye, good-by!
"Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye!
"Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye!
"Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye!"

There is a shade of gray called "Davy's Gray". (See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qu94CwR0EM )

Monkees. Trivia

Shotgunscoot's picture

When the Monkee's came out,alot of us thought they were really The Beatles and when The Banana Splits came out alot of us thought they were really The Monkees.(GO FIGURE)Micky Dolenz played Walt Disney's Circus Boy when he was a kid,and Michael Nesmith was a songwriter who had written a few popular songs. Such as Shelley's Blues that Linda Ronstat had recorded,and I believe his mother invented White Out.The first band I was in was called "Group Therapy".it was the 60's and my drummer was really into The Monkee's.They did I'm a Believer written by Neil Diamond and Take a Giant Step written by Taj Mahal.Saw Mickie on that new country show called Gone Country last week..Well Adios,
Scoot
