Info | There's something extra-touching about a band that's ostensibly "for the kids" singing a song about the end of childhood. The lolling piano line and the big, bright chorus-- "Cheer up sleepy Jean"-- are irresistible to people of all ages, but there's something moving about the way the narrator's daydreams are ever-so-slightly punctured in the verses: even a young kid glued to the Monkees' TV show knows that the sweet comes with the bitter, so why try to hide it? --Chris Dahlen |
