The Monkees foi um grupo de rock dos Estados Unidos formado por David Jones (voz e percussão), Micky Dolenz (voz e bateria), Peter Tork (baixo, teclado e voz) e Mike Nesmith (voz e guitarra).
O grupo foi criado em 1965 pela rede americana NBC para rivalizar com o grupo inglês The Beatles. Para escolher os futuros astros, os produtores colocaram no jornal um classificado pedindo "quatro loucos entre 17 e 21 anos", o que resultou no aparecimento de 437 candidatos.
