When I saw the Monkees clue and checked out that Pleasant Valley Sunday made it to #1 in Canada and #3 in US--thought that must be it. Your 2nd piano does sound more like the Valerie melody. I think I would have gotten it on my next research trip--but not too much free time on my hands. I think that was my 2nd fav Monkees song, 1st being Day Dream Believer, 3rd, Last train to Clarksville. I'm a Believer which I think was their 1st big hit just got over-played for me I think. I wasn't a big Monkees fan being a Beatles fan at that time and wasn't keen on them being a TV auditioned band. But give them credit, they actually weren't too bad on their own. Heck, I'm old enough to remember Mickey as "Circus Boy" on that TV show late 50's--ouch!
