The Monkees - Goin' Down (Official Live Video)

[@Knight14649]

Possibly the Monkees mist hip and complex song.. Mickey sang all the best songs… This is my favorite one..

[@artemiszeus9735]

If I can still do this when I am 70 odd I will be happy. Love the man. 😘🤩

[@trina7012]

HE'S SO FUN AND ENERGETIC

[@hildiwilliams9992]

wow you still got it Micky! ... love this!

[@janhuber2799]

Soo coool mickey☺

[@CS-ol7wo]

Respect! He looks and sounds amazing for a man of his years. I'm a Monkees fan from my early childhood days, but I don't think I could keep up with him

[@tomkelsey3512]

Mickey is underrated as a singer, although initially presented as some sort of clown, he actually contributed a lot of the relevant vocals to the non-Davy Jones songs !

[@maevecostello2629]

Ok this is dumb, but I have been practicing singing this song, to try and master it by the time I see them in concert in October. An unrealistic pipe dream is they'll ask the audience if anyone wants to come up and sing it with them, and I'll say "ME!" and be called up and master it with Micky. XP

[@annasassin2470]

This is fawkin AMAZING!!

[@pfflam]

Man, his voice has gotten better with time . . . . love this song

[@gvgv3515]

I disagree with the statement of his voice getting better. ...I applaud most singers whose voice doesn't degrade over time. I an defend my statement my example. For instance for those voices who did and didn't degrade over time. Once great voices who DID degrade: Frank Sinatra, he spoke the melody to cover the notes he couldn't hit . Paul McCartney is the most notable and breaks my heart. His voice was starting to get gravely which I blamed on the touring in his mid 50s -60s. By 70 it had a " shake " similar to a Parkinson's sufferer. He also tried to keep the original song key but obviously it was in a lower key as he aged. Both Sinatra and McCartney made it to 100 and 80 years old respectively!! Sting he just can't hit the high notes he was famous for in his band the Police as well as solo material. He now sings the high parts in a lower register and " rolls" the notes so they blend versus his sharp alliteration. It is especially heard in songs he now does in reggae style which never were performed as such. ie: In a Material World, Synchronicity 2, Fields of Gold...too many to list!! Phil Collins. Now in his mid 70s as of 2022, has lost his Golden voice from the 70s-80s. His style of scream singing ...think Mama, In the Cage, I Dont Care Anymore, Abacab. They are hard as a studio recording, let alone live on the grueling tours with Genesis and solo career. He hadcto take steroids to alleviate the stress and pain in his voice and it showed on the We Can't Dance album/ tour. He sounds more nasal like a cold, and frail now . He also lowered the key he sings in to cover the fact he can't hit the high notes anymore and actually drops the high notes to very low to cover the inability! I loved his voice during his heyday still love the music! Steve Perry.. As the front man vocalist for Journey front 1976 through the early 90s he was the vocal face of the band. 1 note was all it took and you knew it was Steve Perry! His almost feminine voice would soar to the heavens to hit the high notes and NOT screamed but actually sung!! This ended with their Escape album. You could hear the gravely/scratchy quality beginning. By the end of Escape tour, his voice sounded permanently gravely/ scratchy. Most notable, you heard the change on his 1st solo album Street Talk with the song Oh Sherrie! The follow up album from Journey 's Escape album called Frontiers, also was totally Steve's scratchy voice. From then on the scratchy quality was on every recording to date! I still love his music and cut him the most slack from his grueling tours from the Escape album which IMHO RUINED his voice forever. Im sorry but the " replacement " is just that!

[@janmitchell9058]

I agree; whole heatedly

[@karabadasski2521]

It's Micky Dolenz and he is just AMAZING!

[@language-n-learning]

Micky was always my favorite Monkee! Great song!!! I just saw the Breaking Bad scene with this song again.

[@brianherrington7226]

what's cool is that they used this song in breaking bad otherwise I'd forgotten it. wouldn't it have been cool to see Mickey do this with Ella Fitzgerald.

[@BWild82]

I was around when they were big, but don't remember hearing this till Breaking Bad! Great song and performance ! Thank you Vince Gilligan!

[@TWayneD1020]

Fantastic !!!! WOW !!! He gets better and better !!!Extremely talented and the best actor of the Monkeys !!! Sorry Mike , not that you aren't talented in your own right , just being honest !!

[@bhluebear]

You've got the moves Micky🍪❤️✨ Music is the best!

[@BeanieScooter]

Love his scat and moves!

[@lilaharris5804]

Always love this song, but, I could never keep up with the song.

[@missmontu]

Love this! Love The Monkees and this song is written and performed by The Monkees. One of their original songs not written for them. They were and are the real deal. Love these guys! RIP Davy. Lots of love to Mike, Peter, and especially, Micky Dolenz!

[@allenjosey1652]

1 of only two songs credited as written by all four of them together.

[@Jodus_MacGotuss]

I love the way his voice has aged

[@tinapodratz]

This is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING 👏 👏👏❤❤❤

[@janmitchell9058]

Brilliant Mr Dolenz. Now that's what I call a performer! An incredible moment on stage. After singing and performing many songs before this one. Just amazing xxx

[@QClubs]

Amazing talent...could not sing a song like that without stumbling.

[@ladyofluke3741]

Love to hear a live version of this song! My second favorite lead vocal from Micky. My first is "Sometime in the morning" He still sounds and looks great!

[@PlasmaCoolantLeak]

Micky still kicking ass with this.

[@itsmissyvonne]

DAMN. Micky delivers, still delivers. Awesome.

[@stevegarcia3731]

Wow! Very close to Scat. Wonderful stuff...

[@stevepotocin9501]

This is powerhouse. A one of a kind record, and the Monkees wrote it!

[@kurtb8474]

Never missed a note. God bless Mickey, the last surviving member of the awesome Monkees.

[@vincentcarotta3355]

Good version but really misses the trumpet.

[@anha5816]

I know, right? What Micky's doing is entertaining, but I keep waiting for more trumpet to kick in

[@richiel4340]

Wow, just wow. The Monkeeys are such an influential band. 'Love 'em...

[@DannyD714]

i'm so glad i got to see the micky and peter show before the sad loss of mr. tork. i also got to see the 3 surviving monkees live just after the passing of davy. that was a fun,but very touching show. micky and mike were set to go on tour just before the pandemic hit. i hope they are still planning on touring once things are safe.

[@The53rrc]

It's amazing he can still sing this at this age. He lowered the octave but still pulled it off.

[@PhysicalMediaPreventsWea-bx1zm]

No, it's not lowered an octave. You should learn what an octave is

[@edwardhenry3158]

He did not lower the octave he raised it go back. Listen to the original. Don’t post something if you don’t know what you’re talking about.

[@The53rrc]

@@edwardhenry3158 He didn't go as high as when young. Get ears.

[@The53rrc]

@@PhysicalMediaPreventsWea-bx1zm Probably know more than you. It's obvious because you've got an immature attitude.

[@barbaramcilvaine8221]

6/9/20 - I'm 65 and still have a crush on Micky from the beginning. He's better than ever!

[@scotteboy]

beyond awesomeness

[@meandemjay]

STILL GOT IT! OMG!

[@lemonbade]

This is the coolest song ever.

[@jesebsp]

I listen to this soing when my brain is all over the olace. realigns me.

[@sueleochasadowski2756]

Might be the BEST version of it Ive ever heard. Every atom in my body is a jumpin'

[@eileenlester3313]

Micky...my Monkees crush. 💜💜💜💜💜

[@tomgebarowski8156]

Mickey Dolenz...the one & only...amazing!

[@MaryDavidson911]

Removed some lyrics unfortunately

[@wallacepimentel3191]

Ouvindo em Natal RN, 26/10/21. BRASIL. 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 ABC FC O MAIOR DO RN! 🐘🏴🏳⚪⚫🇧🇷🇧🇷 THE MONKEES! 👏👏👏

[@jackigarcia5538]

He might be old but he's still rocks my boat

[@MANDALAMUSICNYC]

Fabulous. It’s derived from The Parchment Farm Blues.

[@beelion8150]

Can't help to dance. Yes!!!

[@toddleopold2009]

Moves like Micky

[@Fluxion29]

Been listening to the Monkees since I was a kid (of the 80's/90's) and JUST discovered this song somehow on a late night rerun I missed apparently. AMAZING. 😮

[@jackigarcia5538]

The boys STILL GOT IT

[@cynthiaconn5877]

He still has the moves

[@applecheltenhamderby6206]

น้อยไปซิ. ทำหน้าตาแบบพี่ชาย. ที่ ลำสาลี ออกจากคุก. ตอนนั้นเป็นสาวแล้ว. จะ ปาดคอ. กรุยืนเฉย. งง

[@jenniferbarber877]

Mickey DOLENZ first crush!!!! WTF Yeah dude

[@jenniferbarber877]

While my brother tried to poison and kill me I was listening to song. ERIC MADDOX was there at the YMCA Abington gym that day

[@יעלברנתן-ר1ו]

It Sounds like James Brown's Get up Offa that Thing and The Doors' Touch me

[@PhysicalMediaPreventsWea-bx1zm]

He left out the 3rd and 4th verses, the second of which is impossibly fast.

[@karencatherson6318]

Had a crush on Mickey since he was circus boy. Miss their shows.

[@tonebenderx]

This sounds like a Mose Allison song ... if he had had a few cups of espresso.

[@richardk6196]

Damn boy-You go!

[@tini_mg33]

Damn! 🔥🔥😸🔥

[@lauramalek3128]

Man the tiniest change in tempo makes it harder for me to sing along!

[@xetaprime]

Love this song Micky!

[@LarryNeie-lj7zc]

Mickey in his jazz hep cat persona!

[@jbcelis]

* "Breaking Bad, Say My Name" episode brought me here😄* [talkin to myself here] _So i got in my bag Have It All and The Remedy, also Rockstar, then Despacito, We Belong Together, Love on the Brain, and lately, Lose Yourself. So yeah, why not learn this song, too!🎶 2weeks, maybe 3...😉_

[@teejay3272]

Start this song and there's no turning back. He misses one word and it's done. Doesn't miss. Great song. He used to come in to a restaurant I worked at in Hollywood when I was kid. Just a good man. Gracious and kind. As a Monkees fan he was what I was hoping he'd be.

[@howardcohen4845]

Go Mickey Go

[@SantoshBenezette]

Still got it

[@jenniferbarber877]

Never really like that town!

[@jackigarcia5538]

That man can still move❤😂

[@michaela844]

Jes, thats IT 🎉🎉🎉🎉. I am 62.

[@goffer43]

Fan-Gaaaroovey-Tantastic!

[@richpaul8132]

That's the only song I ever liked by the Monkeys. I never considered them a serious band and still don't, but that song took talent and from the first time I heard it in '67, to this version in 2015, (which I just now found, and is almost identical to the one in '67), I still think it was their best number. I can't believe that Micky could still sound just as he did in '67! Very Good!
