    First time I heard this song I was laid up in a VA hospital near Chicago Hines VA recovering from being hit in Vietnam. I saw this beautiful nurse and we married a year later. Two kids and four grandkids going on 50 years together with my Flower Girl. I really love this song for the very reason I mentioned.

      actually its not that simple at all..its way more complex than most modern pop most of which is predictable...this has more interesting chord progressions, dynamic and tempo changes than todays pop.

    After all these years this song still touches me. I always tear up when I hear it, especially the part where Bob and Susan sing the background "hello how do you do?", for some reason that line always brings tears, maybe because it reminds us of how polite people used to be to each other. I long for those days.

      Songs ALWAYS send me to other times , places , relationships.. It's all , A day in the life ..I can recapture the " every things o-k" feeling.. Either , tension , heartache or a easy, nothing eating at me time.. Spanky and our gang music does it also.. Dealing w/ now , BUT escaping to then ..

    A song that got stuck in my mind forever in '68. I still can clearly recall seeing this on the usual variety TV fodder, back when variety shows were still a thing. We were so young. Now we're so old and some haven't made it this far. Melancholy. Heavy hearted melancholy for all those years and the people that are gone.

    Back in the day when I was cutting my teeth as a drummer, we garage bands who were busting our humps trying to cover Cream or Hendrix took a dim view of the "bubble gum" genre. But with guys I made an exception. Their warmth, their honesty (remember, this was when the dubbed-in Monkees were cruising the charts), and their harmonies. Ah, yes, their harmonies still raise goose bumps. Keep it up, guys. More flower power to ya!
