i was an insane Monkees fan as a kid - i was only 4 or 5 years old and I heard that song and begged my mom to buy it for me, so after a doctor's appointment downtown we passed the only record store in town and we went in. I remember telling the owner I wanted the Monkees song, he asked me which one, what was the name. I said 'Sleepy Jean!' - i had no idea what the name of it was other than Sleepy Jean, so the owner said 'sing it', i was shy but sang that chorus - and he went and got me Daydream Believer
their music is way underrated - the best bubblegum pop songwriters wrote for the Monkees - Neil Diamond, Carole King, Boyce and Hart and others. and the TV show looking back was really breakthrough - 10-15 years before MTV and music videos they were doing them.
