@@dattebayossadfry5919 well the more you live the more you learn! 😜 There are actually a lot of older songs that have been remade and reused in more recent songs. The 80’s definitely had a lot of awesome music too!😍
That’s because it’s always been cold, since 1945. The Soviet Union might’ve been dissolved in 1991 but years since we’ve been engaged in different proxy conflicts indirectly with its successor with the only known direct encounter happening at the battle of khasham. The media might’ve stopped making everyone fear for their lives but we’re still one bad geopolitical decision away from it turning hot
I remember going in the backseat of our old car while it was raining outside, while my parents put this song on. Quite the memories and good way to raise me into the music
@@UshankadMenace-ti9xi I mean Life is like that, right now we live in a moment o our lives we see as normal and possibly boring at some parts, maybe even ignoring the wonders that happen around us. But then, many years later we will remember these years with nostalgia and we will wish that we were able to go back in time.
In all seriousness, this song really feels like such a beautiful mixture of nostalgia, melancholy, hope and despair all at once! It’s simultaneously hopeful, and hopeless but still with a faint light at the end of the tunnel that represents almost any current situation! It’s genuinely haunting and thought provoking and like a lot of great songs, incredibly relevant no matter what time/era/decade/ whatever it is! In this case, with all the stuff going on in both entertainment and tech, it really feels like this song resonates with the atmosphere of all that stuff! (And not just because of the name “California”)
Wow I came here bc of a meme I saw and this is the first time I’ve ever heard this song and someone I feel so much nostalgia melancholy hope and despair
I imagine Michelle Philips, the only band member who is still alive, seeing their song getting recognition again while remembering about the good old days. Must be wholesome and painful at the same time...
Great job overall. Clear lyrics, good spacing and timing, and a readable font style and size. One thing, though, the line is "the preacher lights the coal", not "likes the cold". In other words, he puts coal into the coal-burning heater because he knows this guy is gonna stay in the church awhile to get warm. Back in the old days people burnt coal in furnaces for heat.
I mean both work, if the church is warm because of coal heater he's gonna stay in. If it's really col outside, hes gonna stay inside a fairly warm building
My son and his beautiful girlfriend are moving back to California from Portland,OR. And this song took back back to Laguna Niguel where he was born,so I only wish to them bendiciones hijos. Everything is going to be ok.
Born and raised in Southern California 1958. I moved to Kansas 4months ago for a few reasons. Guess what? I’m heading back to my state within the next few months. What I was fleeing I will deal with. Like Dorothy; there’s no place like home. 🙏🏼💕
If there was ever a song to transport you back faster than a Time Machine, this is it! I remember when this came out, seems like yesterday!💖 To the days we thought would last forever!!!💕
@@jacquelinelopez929 Isn't it amazing how music is timeless, regardless how many years have passed, it always brings you back to a time when we were younger and innocent!!! Don't ever let that go, I think this generation will never look back as we do, to a more innocent era!!
When he sings "stopped into a church, i passed along the way" it can faintly hear the girls repeat the lyrics, i asume they're removed from the final master
As someone who was born in 2006,60s music is actually KILLING IT!!!I mean you can't dislike this,or Animals' or Kansas' music,they give me the special feeling I really can't describe by words...
Amazing how every word fits my life like a carbon copy with the song. All I know is we must leave our country better then when we came. Love you the mamas and the papas.
Y'all should do some research bout this song.. and what it was about.. pretty dark if it's true.. it was well known then that the writer and singer had inappropriate relations with his daughter.. very disturbing to say the least.. smh
I love this song and this song is on RUclips has a solo instrumental guitar piece. I’m going to learn how to play it. It is truly beautiful. I grew up, listening to the mamas and Papas and Peter Paul and Mary. Why what great singers and songwriters we had back then. Thanks for the video.👍🏼😁🎸😎
It kinda sounds like you’d hear this in a horror movie, sort of the beginning or both, kids playing in a field during sunset before it all goes to hell
Here in 2022 and the original is still just as good as when it was released in 1965! Timeless😍🤩
Absolutely my dear!!!💖
wait this was released all the way back in 1965-

Eerie and great at the same time because of the bewitching magik on the production
first time I heard this, it was played over footage of the war in Afganistan. it was, well, eerie
the people who died and fought for a lie in iraq

I love this song. It reminds me of my childhood. I mean I was born in 1983, but my parents listened to this.
Ok, your parents had a good taste for music... 👍🏴
These songs pass the test of time because they generously give emotions and feelings to the mind and soul.
Glad to be listening this in 2072... All the tunes nowadays are absolute nonsense.
Que suerte tienes en 2072 quieres oírla yo no podré porque tengo 73 años ya pasé la mejor época de la música pop -rock los 60/70❤❤
So many years have passed and yet whenever hear this song, unusual feelings and all the memories flashing in my mind..

No place like cali. This is my home. Where I’m from. Where I’m staying.

This song is so good, melodies, lyrics, harmony. Simple tune but it really nails it.

it was recorded in stereo, but i think someone downloaded the song from a mono source ? just guessing
I'm playing this for marching band for this upcoming football season. It's going to be awesome 😊

FOR NCR BOIS
Independent New Vegas for me but NCR ending second.
Sounds 10x better with headphones on
9 years of hearing this happy early new year this becomes the 10th year of listening to this song.
That sounds like quite the lovely tradition
You just can't help but love this song! It's always been one of my favorite songs of all time. I love the flute solo, too.
Remember Shady Sands!!!
Happiness, sadness, hope, disparity, scary , melancholy all at the same time. It's very telling of the 60's and telling of today.
This song just makes life feel... different and not real but so happy and peaceful at the same time.
This would be the perfect song for the end of a movie
Wong kar wai use this song in "chungking express"

It is because California was once a great place?

Hello from San Antonio, Tx. 👋 Dec. 4, 2022 🎄 It’s a winter ❄️ day
A good memories for me , when i worked in Japan during 1992
This came out when my grandmother was 7 😢 I love it so much idk how to explain it the feeling I get when I listen to this
My grandmother was 13 when this song came out
This song reminds me of Forrest Gump
i have a disc for the Forrest Gump soundtrack and this is one of the songs on it!
Same here !!
Whenever I listen to this song word conspiracy comes to my mind 😢
I love this song so much.
Listening to this masterpiece on a cold winter day just gives a unique vibe . ❄️
It kinda sounds like you’d hear this in a horror movie, sort of the beginning or both, kids playing in a field during sunset before it all goes to hell
It sounds more like an aftermath kind of song. *After* everything has gone to hell
Rest in peace, my love. 😢
What
Finally found this song
I just want to go back in time to the 80s
Einer nachm Englisch Abi 23 hier
