"Circle Sky" is an amazing song. That's really all I have to say on the subject.
Oh my God, Micky Dolenz is trying to steal my immortal soul! This scene is largely about commercialism, but I suspect
it also had a very personal meaning for Micky. It uses his full name and the army that surrenders to him is Italian
(which he himself is).
The harem scene. Most likely this is a comment on the lavish Monkee lifestyle.
Trivia Note: If you watch closely, you can see Micky get hit in the face with a veil.
The guys satirize movies about the old west. Micky's meltdown at the end of the scene is probably the Monkees venting
their frustration about how fake their show was.
Another Trivia Note: The blonde in this scene is Teri Garr, who you might know for her role as Inga in Mel Brooks'
Young Frankenstein.
Davy pretends to play the violin (very badly I might add). This is a little jab at the Monkees not playing their
own instruments.
