Here's a little something for Christmas Eve... a clip of us singing “Riu Chiu” a cappella from our Christmas episode. This traditional song echoes the call of a bird & tells the story of a river protecting sheep from a wolf. #TheMonkees #MickyDolenz

Can you believe “Last Train to Clarksville” debuted this month in 1966? I sang lead, and by November it hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. It’s amazing how that song launched our career while subtly commenting on the Vietnam War - an effective protest song. #mickydolenz #themonkees

Here’s a little Circus Boy clip that makes me laugh for reasons that probably weren’t obvious at the time. Let’s just say young Micky had a few things to learn about drums. Sometimes life slips in a joke before you’re in on it. #CircusBoy #MickyDolenz #TheMonkees

Still thinking about Bobby Hart. He and Tommy created classics like "(I’m Not Your) Steppin’ Stone," which rocked on stage. Released in November 1966 as a B-side to “I’m a Believer,” it hit #20 on the Billboard Hot 100—the first Monkees B-side to chart. #TheMonkees #MickyDolenz

"Daily Nightly," one of the first pop songs to use a Moog synthesizer, was written by Michael Nesmith for our 1967 album. I programmed UFO sounds with Paul Beaver's help. John Lennon later experimented with those sounds at my house during the '60s. #TheMonkees #MickyDolenz

You know what track brings a smile? “The Girl I Knew Somewhere.” The B-side to “A Little Bit Me, a Little Bit You,” it was key during our Headquarters era when we played our own instruments. It even hit #39 on the Billboard Hot 100 - thanks to Nez's songwriting! #MickyDolenz

Ah yes… back when MTV played music videos and my jacket had more shoulder pads than a linebacker. Being a guest VJ was a blast - little script, lots of fun! MTV in the '80s was special, and I loved being part of it. Who remembers this? #MickyDolenz #MTV #GuestVJ

Did you know I directed the final episode of The Monkees, "The Frodis Caper"? By then, we got experimental. Instead of a typical love song, we chose “Zor and Zam,” an anti-war track by Bill and John Chadwick. A powerful message still relevant today! #TheMonkees #MickyDolenz
