Yes, she was So Pretty!! I liked that band too!!! They had some Great songs!! She had a Great Voice!!!
WOW! I didn't know Mike Nesmith wrote that song?? Cool!! It's like that song Desperado she did. The Eagles wrote that song. But, it flopped. Then she sang it, and it became a hit!! :-)

LOL I never knew that was her song before it became an Eagles song. That must be how un popular it was! LOL! She was gorgeous. And yes Mike wrote that song. I read the company actually didn't like it and turned it down? LOL wtf

I love Different Drum as well! :) I've listened to it 100x over and over again and even tried singing it on karaoke a few times. Haha, I was obsessed with it during my teens and twenties, and hopefully in my thirties if I live... lol.

LOL you've heard my horrible karaoke version of it in the chatroom once! I must have listened to The Stone Poneys version about a billion times too! Cause it always reminds me of Mike :-) Michael Nesmith did his own version of it on one of his solo albums but to be honest I like The Stone Poneys one more because I just think that song is better with a female singer lol

Sadie...Desperado was an Eagles Song. Then she did a cover version of it. She did a Fantastic job with it, and the Eagles Loved it too!! It became a Hit! Glenn Frey and Don Henley of the Eagles were in her back up band when she was on the road in her early days performing, before they formed their own band, The Eagles. They knew her for a long time! :-) Yeah, she was gorgeous!! And had a Great voice!!

The company didn't like that song Mike wrote?? Wut?? LOL!!! That was a Great Song!!!

Candy O...I Love that Song Too!! I'm sure you'll be obsessed with A Different Drum till you're 100!!! LOL!  :-D

I'm Sorry I missed out on the karaoke versions!! LOL!! ;-)

Sadie..So, you liked The Stone Poneys one more because you thought that song was better with a female singer. It's just like the song Desperado being better with a female voice too!  :-)
