.....and what's the title?

It may be The Mamas & The Papas, it sounds like them and it's from the '60s-'70s.

The version I heard recently is a cover.

The lyric that sticks in my head is "Young girls are coming to the canyon..."

It comes toward the end of the song.

It was a fairly popular song, but I can't remember much more about it.

Thanks.

That's it, one of their lesser hits.

Thanks, I don't know who did the cover I heard.

It was a solo female singer with a modern sounding accompaniment.

This is the only reference to a recent cover that I can find. Sorry, male vocalists...

Maybe someone was singin' falsetto.

"Young girls are comin' to the canyon
and in the mornin' I can see them walkin'
I can no longer keep my blinds closed
and I can keep myself from talkin'

cloudy waters cast no reflections..."



One of my favorite M&P songs; from the first Golden Era album.

Finally, something FF didn't know!!

Don't kid yourself, Fred knew the answers all along. He was just testin' us.

That one chord change right after the third line of each verse is a little harsh on your ear, but the title line in the chorus rings out like an anthem.
