Sounds like a bad case of Monkee-Madness to this daydream believer...

Some of the best songwriters of the 60s wrote for them and, even if they weren't playing many of the instruments, the productions were awesome. If I could write a song like "Daydream Believer" or "Shades of Grey", I'd be thrilled!! And don't forget that Smashmouth had a hit with a remake of "I'm a Believer" (a Neil Diamond composition)... As the Stones said, "I'm a monkee man"... Casey

Yeah, a number of the songwriters who had hits with the Monkees were from the Brill Building gang. And then they had Don Kirshner producing early on... What a crew!
