What a shame to lose him when he is only 66. He certainly provided a lot of entertainment over the years. Yes, he will be missed. RIP, Davey.

Just saw the Monkees in August (without Mike Nesmith) Davy was just as good a performer as he ever was. I was disappointed to miss a show he did in NYC on the 18th of this month. I had pics of Davy plastered on my wall as a young teenager. His adorable looks matched his phenomenal talent. I was shocked to hear the news. The other three Monkees are still with us.

I just heard this on the news. So sad.

I agree about the getting old thing - we just see more and more of this, both in our personal lives and with celebrities and other public figures who have, for one reason or another, had an impact on us.

Me and three other kids used to pretend we were the band and we'd lip synch their songs. I used to love the show and we saw them perform in the 80's.

R.I.P. Davy.

He resided part time in a small central Pennsylvania town, where he generously supported the local library there as well as other community efforts. He was so down to earth. You will be missed Davy.

This song did not have the popularity that many did, but I loved it nevertheless
