"in case you didn't know it...i got big love for the lyrical poets."
"I'm so glad that I got her to think of
We'll have a dinner date tonight
And play some scrabble with the guys
And wear our pink party hats
Maybe I should take her on safari?
You'll see us wave from our canoe
If that's what she wants to do
Tell me what's wrong with that?"

"I saw her sitting in the rain
Raindrops falling on her
She didn't seem to care
She sat there and smiled at me
And I knew
She could make me happy
Flowers in her hair, flowers everywhere..."

"Sometimes we're insecure we're fragile sometimes
we laugh at each other to make ourselves feel better
Sometimes we laugh sometimes
we say things that we really don't mean
but in the moment seems like the thing to do
We're all flawed beautiful people
we're all flawed beautiful creatures..."

"I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love
It's time that I realize
That there are some with no home,
not a nickel to loan
Could it be really me, pretending that they're not alone?
A willow deeply scarred, somebody's broken heart
And a washed-out dream
They follow the pattern of the wind ya' see'
Cause they got no place to be
That's why I'm starting with me..."

"Let's take this a second at a time
Let's take this one song, this one rhyme
Together, let's breathe
Together, to the beat
But there's hope out the window
So that's where we'll go
Let's go outside and all join hands
But until then you'll never understand
That you all have guns
And you never put the safety on..."

"The old man said to me
Said, "Don't always take life so seriously
Play the flute and dance and sing your song
"Try and enjoy the here and now
The future will take care of itself somehow
The grass is never greener over there"

"There's just no rhyme or reason
Only a sense of completion
And in your eyes,
I see the missing pieces
I'm searching for,
I think I've found my way home..."

"It’s crazy, amazing
We can turn a heart with the words we say.
Mountains crumble with every syllable.
Hope can live or die
So speak Life, speak Life.
To the deadest darkest night.
Speak life, speak Life.
When the sun won’t shine and you don’t know why.
Look into the eyes of the brokenhearted;
Watch them come alive as soon as you speak hope,
You speak love, you speak...
You speak Life..."

"I want to thank you
for so many gifts you gave,
with love and tenderness
I wanna thank you
I want to thank you for your generosity
The love and the honesty that you gave me
I want to thank you, show my gratitude,
my love and my respect for you."

"The sky could fall
The ground could shake
The stars burn out
And seasons change
The time will pass
And beauty fade
But all my love will remain."

good times is here—
I'm a Monkee Fangirl for Life!
It's my fave band of all time's first album in 20 years and I couldn't help but fall in love with the guys all over again. Good Times is just what I'd expect from a Monkees album and a bright spot in the world drowning in musical angst (sorry, Adele).
All the 60s flair, echoed laughter and reverb with the warm hug of what I wish all music would be. Good Times is the #barefacedlife wrapped up one plastic disk and I'm definitely getting the vinyl.
I can't wait to hear the new stuff in concert! And I hope a Monkees second album is in the making. The Manchester Cowboy would be so proud! Good Times deserves to be piped through the pearly gates!

big love for micky d.
I had all the vintage Monkee pullouts from Tiger Beat up in my locker when my friends were jonesing on Menudo.
I have prayed for this guy and his family specifically every night since my tweens. Seriously I wanted to be his daughter. There was something about the way that he acted that I knew there was something so special and unique about his heart and God blessed me with beautiful friends that arranged an opportunity to sit down with him for coffee. That night I found out the Micky heart that I saw on TV, a love for family and music and fun...it was all true. And that kind of star quality is very hard to find.
Thank you, God for blessing the world with these four guys— the music and laughter remains!
dreams do come true
w​atch an episode
These four guys paved the wave for every Disney star out there. And this kind of fun has yet to be replicated. If you haven't seen the show before, you haven't lived. Just flip on some YouTube and you'll know why these guys were even more lovable than The Beatles (and believe me, I LOVE The Beatles).
