The Mamas & The Papas: California Dreamin' 

Yes 💯

Yes!

People are going to learn English to appreciate our music and movies 2000 years into the future. LA just experienced a once-in-a-civilization creative period. We got transistors, great art, great music, fantastic science, and social networking. Now it's over and future civilization will look back on it like they look on Athens and it's creative period. California Dreaming

@@screwstatists7324 Hmm, I don't understand what you mean by that, but ok 👍

Так

People are going to remember this like the Golden age of Athens. We were there.

Awesome music and vocals.

Literally the best time in history to be alive. You were there in the golden age of Athens.

Me too 1957....just in time to be entertained by these fantastic singers, songwriters, musicians....so many now gone and personal friends lost in time...god bless them all.. I miss them all terribly...👍👍👍

@@Zoro007 I Sure have had lots of fun. I was at the Simon and Garfunkle concert in Central Park NYC in the 80s. People were sitting in the TREES listening. I almost didn’t go because it had started to rain and I thought it would be cancelled. I agree with what you said exactly. 🥰😊

Yep all alone after 43 years 😢 I don't know what to do 😢 no ✌️...

By a BRILLIANT GROUP.

Totally agree!

@@dmitrymelnikov4918 Your reply brought me back. Thank you. Love this song. Have a great day.

@@gabybiz6089 at around 2:16. She was one of the ones that did the high note in the background. She still can belt it out pretty well like that if she wants to lol

Передавай своей маме привет и благодарность!

@@corrinedemaison2644 she actually talks about that, too. She insists she never touched anything, but given it was the 60s, I wouldn't be surprised if she actually did. Either way, though, it doesn't change how good the song is, or how proud I am I hear her every time I listen to this song

Now that's great memories indeed 💯 The kind of things you cherish for life ❤️

That's soooo cool 😎

Che dire? È il cuore di un'onda che, dagli anni 50 agli anni 80(compresi),ci hanno regalato dei gioielli impareggiabili, è un tesoro che ci portiamo dentro dalla culla alla bara..

You guys were lucky having all this great music. Today’s generation has the worst music ever.

Amazing

Right on

I have a similar story. But I was 17 when this came out. But I always knew that I would go to America when I grew up( I am from the Netherlands). Been to the states about 15 times and about 5 times to California. Also lived in LA for 2 months...pretty cool!

I was accepted to go to UT Austin. I ran away from home and went to Cal-State Long Beach. Happy Happy.

Better then modern music

@Senior Billy Bull it’s not...i’m simply stating a fact. lots of drug abuse, physical abuse, mental abuse, and incest going on during that time.

+bakerXderek jajajaja it was amazing!

+bakerXderek I know right...your very observative...

i choked on my food when i saw thatu commented on this vid. idk u listened to good ol rock

No autotune or synthetic sounds. Just four talented musicians and a studio crew able to record and mix with the perfect balance.

It is not necessarily better. It is more basic because of the time it was recorded in. No need to glorify anything. BTW. what is a dishonest voice? 😂 You reached IMHO peak performance if autotune doesn't really matter. That is why Indila is worth listening to.

mine too :)

Now on mine 8️⃣7️⃣kid 🖤💙🖤 Old soul baby!

Well, they have bathtub dancers.

I haven't been able to put into words how this song makes me feel and you nailed it

it's hauntingly perfect on so many levels

Ahah, I was born in 1967, Moscow, USSR. We had a lot of snow as well)) I've heard this song for the1st time only in 90s, since then it is in my gold collection and in my heart.

@@ИзольдаВ ❤️

@GetYour_Jollies You never know. It was definitely unforgettable for kids. Not sure the adults enjoyed it so much. There is a picture buried somewhere in my collection of my dad out there shoveling snow. The path he made on the sidewalk was surrounded by piles of snow higher than his head and he was 5'11". It must have been exhausting. No snowblowers back then, at least I didn't know anyone who had one.

+603 Photography Me too! I came to L.A. July 1990. I missed the snowtorm of the Century, Winter 1990. Never going back East.

+STREETBEEFS FIGHTS Me too! Came to L.A., 1990. Never going back. (as of January 2016.)

Don't sell yourself short. Virginia is for lovers. Some hot babes on Virginia Beach. So close to the NC state line. Both states have lovely ladies.

We both know that which we talk about. A soft, slight southern lilt in their voices.

+STREETBEEFS FIGHTS The Mamas and the Papas did for the tambourine what Aerosmith did for the cowbell. Don't feed the reaper.

It makes me question these times we live in. Could it be that this generation got it all while this one is losing it all? Just wondering.

mine too

Great song good memories come with this song great music

Hello from Russia

Mine too 7-2019 😀💟

Absolutely. My all time favourite song. Perfect harmonies. Beautiful!

@@martynedwards9437 You sometimes hear musicians say songs fall from the sky. Well, if it's so, then this is one of them! As you s, perfect harmonies.

Golden ear for music

one of the greatest generations ever,but id like to hand that title to the people of the second world war

People born in the ‘60s are of the ‘70s generation.

This is late 40's baby's coming of age actually.

I wish I was alive in this era, the music the clothes the art it's a beautiful time. Like when the first flower starts to bud in the beginning hint of spring. Like breathing clean air for the first time. I was an 80s baby but I belong in the 60s/70s

There is a heaven Jim but you got to receive Jesus to get there. The music in heaven would blow you away and since God created it that’s a no wonder. The Bible talks much about heaven, music and what goes on there. Surprisingly, since everyone is going to die you would think instead of going by past or what current philosophers “can only guess” what goes on when we all die you would think there would be a frenetic and mad scramble to open the Holy Book to see what it has to say about this subject but no and that Holy Book prophesied accurately about just this fact and that only a few will make it. The thought of most of humanity perishing to eternal flames and haunting misery over being loved by their creator and in eternal safety is beyond comprehension and shocks me to my core. Mankind is full of pride, wicked, and has their hearts hardened towards God. Jesus is the only way to safety and peace. Because God is Holy no one can stand in his presence or go to heaven. God says to be with him you must be Holy as he is and take on his nature which again is only done through receiving Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins to God and the washing of his blood over you to atonement of those sins. What are you waiting for? Cry out to him wherever your at and he will hear you and give you mercy and forgiveness. I hope to see you and anyone else reading this in heaven someday. Remember the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. God bless.

lol

I hope so.

"I began to pray"

@@railenherman6482 They clearly sing pretend. To sing began you have to sing a "ga" instead of a "t". You sing a "ga" with your mouth more open and a "t" with your mouth more closed because your tongue is right behind your teeth. In this video they have their mouth not open to sing "ga". So you can hear and see them singing pretend to pray. Which gives this song more intensity.
