Just sent this to my one and only of 45 years. We are in old bodies but our love stays young.

I feel like this has been playing subconsciously somewhere in my head for 20 years

Walking though a field of wheat in the midlands, UK in the mid 60’s when I was 14 years old and seeing ‘lovin’ spoonful’ sprayed on a concrete wall - suddenly ‘what a day for a daydream’ came over my transistor radio - it was so ‘far out’ - I loved this band at that time, especially, summer in the city’- what a time, what a place. Aquarius. Hope we see something like it again. Love, JaneR

They were definitely 1 of the 10 best rock bands from the incomparable 1960s, their songs are ageless and forever listenable.

All those who fought in the Vietnam War... they used to sing this song together. Just to make them feel a bit better & wishing they could return home. Bless them ALL! 😥

A really laid-back kid started whistling this during class in high school. Everyone cracked up because it was PERFECT for him.

1966 (I think it was '65 but Ill roll with '66): 4 years old. This is my first song. Seriously. My first 'oh! I like this song, turn it up' where Id be listening to the radio in my Mom's car and trying to sing along. That Summer it was over-played, and I heard it a few times each day. What was Rock and Roll then could be labeled something else today, just like my '70s Heavy Metal is now Classic Rock and Heavy Metal has a whole 'nother meaning.

We got tear-gassed in Orlando back in the day at Lovin Spoonful concert. Lol Those darn hippies with their rock n roll! Such beautiful tame music . We ran to cars John was helping people up onto stage and out the back doors. People were being stampeded as they ran for exit. It’s another one of those memories ! My dad read about it in the paper next day and said see that rock n roll is nothing but problems ,sis and I looked at each other with a grin as we were there but not allowed concerts.

1966 a pivotal year in rock and roll.

I'm only 15 and this song already brings back feeling of nostalgia, just a phenomenal song. I'm tearing up. I remember this is one of the first songs I learned to play and sing on guitar. The Lovin' Spoonful are one of my all time favorite bands, #1. This band deserves so much recognition than it has.

This song transports me back to the mid sixties. What a magical era it was. If I could have one wish, it would be to go back there permanently.

1965 remember it SO WELL What a silly old fool I am
-
There were many great bands in the sixties, and the Lovin Spoonful was up there with the best.
-
this is my favorite song by this band, sophomore in High school, first steady girlfriend, and in the warm spring, This Song... life was good
-
This song came out while I was in US Navy boot camp in San Digeo. We had a smuggled radio in the barracks. Kept us from going out of our rabid azz minds-some of us, anyway!
-
The song is awesome, but more than that, the SOUND is so clear. It’s like my own personal concert !
-
Kyle this and Groovin by The Young Rascals have been going around in my head for 50 years. Summers of '65 & '67. Great times.

Came out 5 or 6 years before I was born but my dad always loved this song! RIP
