The Monkees

I just heard on the news that Davy Jones died from a heart attack.  He was 66.  Waaaaaaaaa!  I loved The Monkees  when I was a kid, and had a huge crush on Davy.  My sister and I used to fight over who was going to be his girlfriend (right).  Anyway I had their albums, watched their T.V.  show, and to this day if I hear Daydream Believer, Last Train to Clarksville, or I'm a Believer, I still swoon right back to when I was 10. RIP Davy.  You were awesome.  And Jill...he's mine.

  1. Me, too, Lynne! When I was about 7, I wrote my first and only fan letter to Davy Jones (I don't think my mother ever mailed it, though!). So sad!

  3. Hi Lynne,
    I had a lump in my throat when I heard the news. I too was convinced that I would be Davy's girl when I grew up! xoxo Debbie
