Way back when I was in college, and taking random courses because I didn't know what else to take, I took a history of rock & roll class. The Monkees were a frequent target for mimicry while the teacher raved on and on about bands like Led Zeppelin... who, you know... "rocked" and stuff.
I would probably take the Monkees over Led Zeppelin any day.
Which would result in a lot of people deciding to never befriend me, but whatever.
The reason I'm writing this is because Daydream Believer came up on a playlist I'm listening to. And... I mean, I know that the band was essentially a front to cash in on the popularity of the Beatles, and that when any music label does this nowadays, I hate it completely. But... it's so happy. And catchy. And no one could possibly ever hate it. Well, maybe some, but they've already decided against life, so screw them.
I'm going to counterbalance with a song by Led Zeppelin that I don't really like, so you will be inclined to side with my line of thinking (although I think this is actually a popular song, so there's no way this won't backfire):
