Topic: Davy Jones Monkees Singer R.i.p Who Used Watch Tv Show.

R.I.P to him love tv show back in day it used to come on on weekends after fall guy...

I loved that show as a child of the 80's!

Hey, hey, we're the monkees
And people say we monkey around,
But we're too busy singing
To put anybody down.

Don't hear lyrics like that anymore...

Used to be a huge fan of the show and their music as well. My condolences go out to his family and friends, as well as the other Monkees.

I use to watch that show alot when I was a kid as well. I remember that it come on sometime after school probably around like 5 o'clock or something like that. They dont make classics like this anymore. If any of you guys notice Big Time Rush on Nickelodeon reminds me alot of the Monkees. YOu can tell that the Monkees was a big inspiration for that show.

My thoughts and well wishes goes out to his family.

lol yeah tasuki it did come on soon as we get out school and you got time right in things wow...

They had so many great songs. This is one of my favorites that Davy sang. Rest in peace, Davy.

The other Monkees were Mike Nesmith, Peter Tork, and Micky Dolenz, and they are all still alive. Your thinking of The Beatles.

Led Zepellin cannot be conflated with the Monkees or The Beatles.

The Ruttles, Freddie and the Dreamers or The Kinks would have been acceptable.

whilst they were a manufactured group, the guys all were talented, especially mike nesmith. i watched the show religiously as a kid. even today, their music can put a smile on my face. rest well and at peace, davy.

@Swiket: i'm not certain if you are being 'clever', are truly ignorant of the musical period, or just trolling.)

Davy Jones will be missed. (I watched the show and listened to the music). I always liked how the name of The Monkees was misspelled. RIP, cool bro.

I remember he featured a lot on Scooby-Doo, and he made a guest appearance on Boy Meets World with the rest of the band. R.I.P., good sir...

Aww, man, that sucks. RIP.

I loved the show as a kid, and came to appreciate them more as a band later — yes, they were a "manufactured" band that didn't (or rather, rarely were allowed to) play their own instruments, but they were quite good.

I'd highly reccomend people to try and see their movie "Head", which is an excellent example of 60s-ness (and was partially written by a young Jack Nicholson interestingly enough), and showed that they were "deeper" than they have often been credit for. The movie, as a whole, is very self-aware --- with the band making some strong commentary on what they were and how they were percieved (again, the "manufactured" band).

RIP Davy.

(Fun Fact — David Bowie's real name is Davey Jones ... he adopted the Bowie name so as not to be confused with the Monkees' Davy Jones)

For anyone who gets AntennaTV, they have been/are currently running a Monkees marathon all day today and all day tomorrow, concluding with the movie tommorrow night. Huzzah!
