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

rewatching head 1968 atm and i always love this part in daddy's song because it's straight up just transgenderism. oh years have passed, and now you pass too?? you can't cry anymore, a known side effect of testosterone??? okay mr jones i see you
#wishing joy upon his gay son#not to mention the “his father was not a man” line#what was he then?? a beautiful butch??#davy jones#head 1968#trans davy jones#the monkees#daddy's song
