Thank you for the promote!

You have been awarded 1 Power Point for fixing the embed code for Dead Pool video The Monkees-Circle Sky (from the movie Head). Thank you for helping maintain VideoSift's reliability.

I was born in 1959 and I remember this show when it on. Even then I thought it was dumb beyond belief, I preferred The Monkees, Man From U.N.C.L.E. and Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In.

Thanks bro!

drummer, "mick mason" credited... guess they wanted the Monkees

He also wrote "I'm a Believer".

Wow - is he the original artist who recorded this?

Marge: [voice over] The kids at school were even worse.
[young Marge gets on the bus, sits next to a girl]
Girl: [seeing her lunch pail] Ew! You like the Monkees? You know
they don't write their own songs.
Marge: They do so!
Girl: They don't even play their own instruments.
Marge: No...no!
Girl: That's not even Michael Nesmith's real hat.
Marge: Aah!

I beg to differ on the instrument playing...a quick check with wikipedia and at least two of them are well able to:

"Texan Michael Nesmith was a songwriter and guitarist who had recorded for Colpix under the name "Michael Blessing." He was the only Monkee who had come in to audition from seeing the original advertisement.

Peter Tork was recommended to Rafelson and Schneider by friend Stephen Stills.[2] Tork, a skilled multi-instrumentalist, had performed at various Greenwich Village folk clubs before moving west, where he was a dishwasher before becoming a Monkee.[2]"
