The Monkees - I'm A Believer 1966 (HD Stereo!) descargar videos gratis

Alternate Wide Stereo Mix (Different vocal track, although the backing track is identical. Since the Monkees did not play their instruments on the records the parts were recorded seperate...)

I realize this isn't the hit version, but the remixing of the backing track for this makes the song sound so much better.

from wiki:

"I'm a Believer" is a song composed by Neil Diamond and recorded by the band The Monkees in 1966 with the lead vocals by Micky Dolenz. The single, produced by Jeff Barry, hit the number one spot on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart on December 31, 1966 and remained there for seven weeks, becoming the biggest-selling record for all of 1967, and one of the biggest of all time. Because of advance orders, it went gold within two days of release.

Neil Diamond had already recorded this song before it was covered by the Monkees, and it still sometimes appears in his live concerts. This song was later covered by Smash Mouth and Eddie Murphy in 2001, as part of the soundtrack to the movie Shrek (the band also released the song on its self-titled album). Eddie Murphy, portraying the character "Donkey", also performed a rendition of the song in the film. The song was chosen for its opening line, "I thought love was only true in fairy tales," which matched the fairy tale motif of the film. "I'm a Believer" was a hit for both The Monkees and Smash Mouth.

A revised recording by Neil Diamond, featuring additional lyrics, appears on the album September Morn, whilst his original recording can be found on several albums, including his greatest hits album, The Essential Neil Diamond. A cover by British singer-songwriter Robert Wyatt was an unlikely hit in the UK in 1974. In 1995, British comedian Vic Reeves teamed up with then-popular band EMF for a version which reached #3 on the UK singles chart; this cover is notable for its semi-comic inclusion of three solo drumbeats and a shout of "Oi!" between the first and second lines of the first and second verses. This addition to the song has permeated popular culture in the UK to the extent that it has become almost impossible for the original version to be played in public without the audience adding their own "Oi!". A nod to this version is included in Shrek; though the "Oi!" does not appear in any album version of Smash Mouth's cover, it is inserted into the song when it is played in the film's finale, shouted by Snow White's Seven Dwarfs.
