Screenshot from Head (1968).
“I hate prejudice and violence. Somehow, those two seem to go hand-in-hand. Think of it this way: suppose we lived in a country where everybody was green, and then some orange and purple polka-dotted people came along. So we would be saying, ‘Gee, what funny-looking polka-dotted people!’ But because people are basically good in their hearts, each group would want to be friendly with the other. It’s only fear, lies and bad leadership that keeps us all from loving each other and from seeing each other clearly and purely with the eye of the mind and the love of the heart.” - Peter Tork, 16 Magazine, December 1968 Revisiting these quotes, too: “‘We’ve all got to stick together or we’re all going to come unglued.’ [Peter] noted a drive for only one’s own fortune is at the expense of others. ‘Without community, the individual is dead.’” - The Life, May 3, 1996 Q: “At what times do you feel that there’s hope for the human race?” Peter: “All the time. Are you kidding? What’s the alternative?” - Together, November/December 2010 “Be kind to yourselves and others… peace and love. Peter Tork” - Fabulous 208, 1967 “everyone take care of yourselves and your loved ones, and even the occasional random passer-by, eh? xo, peter” - Facebook, November 10, 2018

The red and blue combination between their shirts, resulting in the purple sky in the background
Them facing each other while performing a beautiful acoustic version of Don't Call On Me. Everything is just perfect
This is genuinely one of the most beautiful scenes in the show. It's short, but also very sweet, and a rare moment between Mike and Peter as characters, showing their true musical connection
(And yes ik Peter's shirt is actually orange, but it looks kinda red on this specific scene)
#the monkees#michael nesmith#peter tork#not to say torksmith#but#torksmith#kinda silly but i just fell in love with this scene since i watched it for the first time#also#i'm not completely sure if the song is DCOM#but I've seen a LOT of people saying it's true so i'm gonna trust them

every time i talk about the movie Head(1968) i feel like the world's most annoying man because it's like "ofc the monkees guy is talking about the monkees movie" what they DON'T tell you is that the reason i was drawn into all this was a desire to have a better understanding of Head(1968) because it's that interesting. to me. i'm so embarrassed they should actually just bury me in a hole.
#kirbco brand cola#the thing abt it is that the monkees have this perfect storm of power over me because#they have a twee little 60s sitcom from hell. they have a jarring non-linear movie. they have a weird ass little band with strange songs.#these are all the things i look to for nourishment#on top of that i like weird lanky men so i'm actually in hell here

Oh great, now the Monkees are singing in the "Yellow Submarine" AU!
Like usual, here's the sketches and reference images!
#i mean the monkees wrote a song called “someday man”#like it's such a good parallel to “nowhere man”#i also do have a sketch concept for what the monkees' version of Jeremy is if anyone wants to see it#the monkees#yellow submarine#davy jones#peter tork#micky dolenz#mike nesmith#crab's jukebox#last train to crabsville#crab's scribbles

idk if i have a crush on or gender envy from mrs arcadian but i did make this edit. so. yk. there's that.
edit: the original post didn't upload the whole video 😭 this should be the whole thing, all two minutes, thirteen seconds of it, in all it's glory
#talk tag#the monkees#micky dolenz#mrs arcadian#ykw fuck it i'm also tagging this#riverpoint art#bc i spent five hours on this! and i think i'm probably proud of it!#the song choice works on two levels:#first of all bc its about some guy being kinda pushy and all the guys in this ep are kinda pushy#its an episode about guys being pushy. all of it.#but ALSO bc it's a song from my gender playlist#alright. enjoy.#my videoes
