    -------------------- LYRICS: --------------------
    1a. All the leaves are brown
    And the sky is grey
    I've been for a walk
    On a winters day
    1b. I'd be safe and warm
    If I was in L.A.
    R. California dreamin'
    On such a winters day
    2a. Stopped into a church
    I passed along the way
    Well, I got down on my knees
    And I pretend to pray
    2b. You know the preacher lights the coal
    he knows I am gonna stay.
    R. California dreamin'
    On such a winters day
    3=1a. All the leaves are brown
    And the sky is grey
    I've been for a walk
    On a winters day
    3b. If I didn't tell her
    I could leave today
    R. California dreamin'
    On such a winters day
    R. California dreaming
    On such a winters day
    R. California dreaming
    On such a winters day

We got transistors, great art, great music, fantastic science, and social networking. Now it's over and future civilization will look back on it like they look on Athens and it's creative period.

      It is not necessarily better. It is more basic because of the time it was recorded in. No need to glorify anything. BTW. what is a dishonest voice? 😂 You reached IMHO peak performance if autotune doesn't really matter. That is why Indila is worth listening to.

    Those snow scenes remind me of the snow storm in Chicago in '67. We had so much fun digging tunnels in the snow in the yard and jumping off of the garage roof, making angels in the streets because there was no traffic and no school. I definitely wasn't dreaming of CA back then. Snow was too much fun.

There is a picture buried somewhere in my collection of my dad out there shoveling snow. The path he made on the sidewalk was surrounded by piles of snow higher than his head and he was 5'11". It must have been exhausting. No snowblowers back then, at least I didn't know anyone who had one.

    I adore this song, and the stories my mom gave me about being around these people.
    EDIT:
    I just wanted to come back and thank you all for the love. Unfortunately, my mother passed away this past month. However, I was able to let her know how much love you guys were sending her way before she passed.
    Every time I listen to this song I'll think of you, Mom. Thank you for not only being the most important person in my life, by an important part of many people's lives.

    A great song. My first trip to California was the summer of 1983. I was lucky enough to travel the country playing freestyle frisbee for most of my twenties. At 2:09 that’s me. This was on that 1983 trip. My most recent trip was a couple of weeks ago to Santa Barbara CA where me and my partner were inducted into the frisbee freestyle hall of fame.

    I was in grad school in Boston, Massachusetts, and this song was hard-wired in my brain. It told me I needed to return to California. I had never had roots, really. But I had gone to UCLA and loved it, and loved Los Angeles. So I came back, and made my life and loves there. And have no regrets for that. But thanks to the Mamas and the Papas for keeping me centered, and taking me back.
