    I always thought that "she's not there" meant that despite her attractiveness, she was ultimately cold, unreachable - a heartbreaker because she really had no heart, nothing to give. And the narrative voice of the lyrics was bitter, because his "everyone", his social circle did not warn him, they let him do what others had done and get burned by falling for her, "though they all knew." There's something we can all relate to in the line, "Well, it's too late to say you're sorry. How should I know? Why should I care?" He's doing what none of his friends did, though. He's telling you about her and the danger she represents to the unsuspecting young heart.

      Yes there's no doubt in my mind from the first time I heard this song as a 12 year old that she is a woman or teenage girl who seems heartless and cold and has rejected him, albeit after some sort of closeness which he felt would lead to something meaningful...but ultimately he means much less to her. This is his vitriolic, angry and heartbroken response. How would I know you're sorry, when you've moved on and are far away from me unreachable...she's not there, literally and figuratively.
      Again, as a near teen this song really made sense to me as we were awakening to relationships and girlfriends....

      This suggests she was untrue, not 'not all there' or empty headed
      She's not there as a line says to me, she isn't available anymore...like when you break up...that person is gone to you, even though their eyes are still clear and bright they are no longer there...for the person who is left behind.
      That's my take.

      His first two solo albums are great too (and maybe others, but those are the only ones I've heard). Very underappreciated, especially his solo debut "One Year". Most of the original Zombies (as Argent) played a part in both records, including the production, so it's pretty close to the Zombies personnel-wise.

      I think in most cases, it isn't really the bands themselves that mind so much, it's the record labels and publishers who hold the rights who insist on being jerks about it. Unfortunately, a lot of artists don't always have control over their own music or what the labels do with it -- especially older bands like these, where they ended up signing contracts that were a lot more lopsided because even their agent or manager who was supposed to be representing their interests was cutting back-room deals with the labels to make sure he got *his* cut of the action instead. :-(

    The Zombies were one of the least heralded bands of the British Invasion of '64 - '65, even though they had top ten hits. Their music was very mature, with unusual chord progressions. The piano solo in this song is as much jazz as it is pop or r&b. As you noted, it's a shame they weren't able to stay together longer - they had the songwriting and musicianship chops to be as big as they deserved to be IMO. Glad you guys like them as much as I do.

      "Get Together" was the Youngbloods' huge hit. I never saw the youngbloods, but in addition to his work with the Youngbloods, Jesse Colin Young was doing solo albums. After the dissolution of the Youngbloods, he toured as the solo opening act for CSNY. I saw him open at the CSNY concert at ODU's Foreman Filed in Norfolk Virginia on August 17, 1974. I think one of his - and the Youngbloods' - best songs was "Darkness Darkness", despite the 'dark' theme. Jesse said the inspiration for the song was the young men serving in Vietnam, after a personal friend of his was killed there.

    Man, my AM radio was so full of wonderful goodness. Both of these Zombie tunes included. The thing I love about these reaction videos is getting to relive hearing great music "for the first time" all over again. Bonus - I also get to learn about the music history that I may have missed, even as it happened. A&A do a good job of this. Another super cool thing is when the artists themselves are out there listening along with those of us who were there and they let us know by contacting the reactors. (Graham Nash even contacted Foxes and Fossils about their cover of "Suite Judy Blue Eyes" (which I thought couldn't be done), validating how impressed I was with what they did : ) For all of its warts, the RUclips thing can be pretty cool. Rock on, college dudes.

    Andy - I love how the singer is so good.
    Oh really? Was he soft and cool? Was he clear and bright? Was he not there?

    Colin Blunstone had one of the coolest voices in rock. The Zombies were one of my favorite bands from the Sixties.

    'But they all knew!' As much as this song is about the girl, its also about the lousy friends who didn't try to stop him from getting into her in first place.
    Vanilla Fudge does a great cover of this, they turn it up to 12. Their 60's version, not the newer version of the band.

      Sorry but it lacks the gravitas of the original, not even close to being as good.

      @@facelessnomore ya know I would agree that the original has a little more dark and spooky aspect, but to me santana captures 80 or 90 percent of that feeling with incredible vocals, guitar solos and an awesome Latin rhythm breakdown/jam. But to each there own I suppose.

      @@Jaggedknife11 There is no doubt that Santana adds wonderful sweeping guitar solos and that is part of the problem for me, everything Santana does is a vehicle for his guitar work. Now that is not a bad thing, he is really really good and I have paid good money on a couple of occasions to see him. I would have to disagree on the vocals Greg Walker does not have the vocal range to match Colin Blunstone on this song, not even close. Santana did a similar thing with Black Magic Woman, took a brilliant soulful work of art and transformed it into a vehicle for Carlos to run through his tricks and flicks and thereby diminishing the song. These are of course just my opinions.

    Mazel tov on hitting 90K! Keep it going, guys. Your appreciation of the music is only the basis of your success. Your intelligence and ability to break the songs into components because of your musical knowledge enriches the experience beyond most reactors who just "like stuff."
