Expect Nothing, Appreciate EVERYTHING

Today's song was written in 1967 by John Phillips of The Mama's and The Papa's fame.  Phillips reportedly wrote it in about 20 minutes.  (He must have been greatly inspired!)  This song was also called the 'unofficial anthem for the counterculture movement of the 1960's.'

It was an immediate success and was responsible for bringing thousands of young people to San Francisco.  It was also part of the soundtrack from Forrest Gump.

So, did you guess today's song?  One of THE best songs of the 60's.  I know, I know.  I write that about all the songs.  It's like trying to say which child you love the most!

Enjoy, my friends. 

Peace and all good things.
