EXCELLENT!! I haven't heard this in a long time. I was 11yrs old in '66 and I bought the 45. WMCA 570 AM NYC used to play this a lot. Thanx RP!

Although I love the harmonies, This song makes me feel sad for some reason.. It really takes me back to my childhood..

With vocal arrangements like this, instruments become insignificant. They might as well have recorded a capella. Amazingly good.

Funny you mention that. Because of the way they remastered this from the orginals to digital, the left and right channels are seperated funny. I was listening to it and was only hearing the vocals. So amazing!
My kids,now 23 & 20, couldn't get enough of the Mamas and the Papas. They could sing every word of every song on this record.
I generally love this band, but for some reason, probably oldies radio overplay, this song is very irritating to me.
(I wish I could hear Creeque Alley.)

They just photoshopped Mama's face into the photo. ;)
Pretty cool album cover -- even though the Phillistine bastards at their label butchered it to satisfy the censors.
I never get tired of these guys.

Like, I'm back in the '60s!

Total bliss. No one harmonizes like the Mamas and the Papas.
And Michelle Phillips was hot on "Knots Landing."

Enough of this. There should be a rule against playing songs that lodge in your head all day. Especially ones that I never liked in the first place.
Sounds like a nursery rhyme.
Oh, yeah, the evil hook. Ow, headache. Lucky, not too many of those at RP!

OK Mamas and Papas once is while is kind of fun, but hearing it twice in a one day....Jeeze, with all the music in the world I am sure we could find something else to play.

I loved this tune in former days, but now it's used up. Enough is enough!
I haven't herd this in 20 years. You must be listening to an oldies station a lot.
Ever sooooo dated. I am sure this was nice in it's time, sorta like hot pants, leather vests and daisy chains. Just cuz we did it then, doesn't mean we should do it now

I find this stuff is aging a whole lot better than I am

ok, i'm dating myself, but this is one of those "soundtrack of my life" songs. a great song doesn't need 128 tracks to make it work. this works and always will

Or som Was Not Was!
Yes.
I still catch myself singing this on Mondays........

Yeah, I love the Mamas and the Papas too, even though they don't age as well as some. There's still enough of merit in their songs to make them beautiful.
