Great job mixing this amazing piece. The producers threw in every instrument they could including a harp. If you listen closely during the chorus, you can hear a flute in the left channel and a fife (higher pitch flute) in the right channel. Those great 60's lyrics. Songs these days don't tell the story like they did back then . . . Blue sky, sunshine What a day to take a walk in the park Ice cream, daydream Till the sky becomes a blanket of stars What a day for picking daisies And lots of red balloons And what a day for holdin' hands And bein' with you Thanks so much for sharing this classic song with the great Spanky Macfarlane on lead vocal. She sings like an angel. Steve, Salem, OR USA

Let me echo those sentiments of your service...also, don't feel bad...most of us look back at the innocence (or nieve t) and embrace it with fondness and longing for it. But then reality sets in just like when you become aware of the real reasons behind wars (not the fairy tail propaganda) and realize how were all getting screwed and the worst part is when you realize there is absolutely nothing you can do about it. Well you can try...just ask Jack, Bobby, Martin...or more recently Seth Rich. Yeah, like I said, nothin' we can do except escape into our wonderful world of music and keep dreaming. At least we have that..thanks for this fantastic composition I love it! Did you ever do Aquarius by the 5th Dimension? How about "Shapes and Angles" by them? That seems like a number you could really work with. Has one of the best bass/drum hooks I have ever heard in my life (thanks to Joe Osborn and Hal Blaine) as well as McCoo's unearthly vocals.
