Times: Which of the Monkees are you closest to?
Tork: It’s different with each. Micky’s the best pal, but my heart connection is biggest with Davy. Davy is capable of as much heart as anyone I’ve ever met. I kind of had a crush on Davy for a while.
I’ve often said I loved, liked, and respected each of the other three Monkees in different proportions. What I don’t often say is that I loved David the most. - Peter Tork

Please reblog! And in the tags put where you’re from, I’m curious how this differs based on location :)

Also I was going to add “driving in bad weather” but I left it out because that makes everything more stressful for just about everyone!
