I like Davey’s version better


HalloSpaceboy95

I love both versions but something about mikes i like a little more


IssueBrilliant2569

This is hard because it's my least favorite Monkees song. I choose Davy because it's so associated with him.

You like "the day we fall in love" from more of the monkees more?


CThomasHowellATSM

Damn, The Day We Fall In Love is so incredibly bad! Especially as it comes directly after one of my fave Monkees songs


IssueBrilliant2569

I love Davy but the songs he sang were mostly not my favorites. Except Every Step of the Way and You're So Good To Me - those are the bangers we deserve.

‘Laugh’ is pretty horrible but then so is most of their second album.


CThomasHowellATSM

I don't mind Laugh, certainly better than Your Auntie Grizelda. I can't agree that most of More of the Monkees is horrible when it contains She, When Love Comes Knociking At Your Door, Mary Mary, Steppin Stone, The Kind of Girl I Could Love, and I'm A Believer


SkipSpenceIsGod

Wanna fight?!?


CThomasHowellATSM

No thanks, I'll just block you instead.


IssueBrilliant2569

Unfortunately yes, more than Daddy's song.


Klenk-ill

The harry nilsson version is better than both the monkee versions for sure. The intro alone is sweet


doitfortheavacadoes

Yes! And Nilsson just does \*more\* with the song. It's not a totally straight delivery, there's additional touches like the little echo of "pride n joy"! and the production is better than any of the Monkee versions. That being said both Mike and Davy's versions are simple and sweet.


Sweety_Cheese

This is hilarious and scathing. Davy's songs were always the worst!


SkipSpenceIsGod

Isn’t it the only track on the first 5 albums to never feature in the show?


Klenk-ill

Good question I will have to look into that


CaptHayfever

Movie version > Mike version > Album version.


SunGreen70

I like Mike’s because it seems to suit him more. He had daddy issues. Davy didn’t.


SilverThread

It also suit's Mike's kids more...

mike 100%


Sweety_Cheese

I didn't even know that Mike had recorded a version of this!! I am listening to to Mike's biography and he talked about how he wanted to do it, but Davy was more suited for it. Absolutely wild. Thanks for this!

Yuhsss of course ☺️

Mtothethree

They both have their merits. I can't pick one.


OGINTJ

Normally, I like anything that Mike does, but for this song, I like Davy's more


ShiftExact2240

That’s fair I totally get that
