A Music Blog (#4: The best darn walk)

This song is featured today because of Andy. (Or well, I mentioned the song, he demanded it be used for this blog, and I agreed). This is not a bad thing because this is a darn catchy song by a bunch of Mamas and Papas.


That's right, California Dreamin'. (ON SUCH A WINTER'S DAAAAAAAAAY!)

Also a live version which sounds remarkably similar. Worth watching for the dancers that appear halfway through! You will not regret it. =p

Lyrics!
Spoiler:
All the leaves are brown
And the sky is grey
I've been for a walk
On a winters day

I'd be safe and warm
If I was in L.A.

California dreamin'
On such a winters day

Stopped into a church
I passed along the way
Well, I got down on my knees
And I pretend to pray

You know the preacher likes the cold
He knows I'm gonna stay

California dreamin'
On such a winters day

All the leaves are brown
And the sky is grey
I've been for a walk
On a winters day

If I didn't tell her
I could leave today

California dreamin'
On such a winters day
California dreaming
On such a winters day
California dreaming
On such a winters day


I do not care if this gets stuck in your head. Too classic a song. =p I don't really have much to say besides that it is sung well (even when live - no need for much adjustments between that and studio level!) and that solo is neat too. But mostly the singing makes the song. Lyrics are simple, everything gets repeated, but in the end a catchy melody and good execution is all you need for a good piece of music!

    Good song. I always wondered who sang it. It kind of makes me think of Forrest Gump. =P
