Music that brings me back memories

I really made a fool of myself the first time I heard this song. I was at the Mother son lunchen when my son was graduating High School. This song started playing and I got all chocked up and said to him "You're school mates really made a nice song for their Mom's" he laughed at me and said "Mom we didn't write that song,didn't you ever hear it before."
 
A great time in my life, this version sung by it's author, John Phillips and his little group, Mamas & Papas
I prefer Scott McKenzie's cover. It's iconic.
 
Whenever I hear this song it reminds me of when I was a teenager and would go to the Saturday night dances. One boy that would hang around me all the time got so excited and thought this song was about me. I'm just happy he wasn't at the dances when Barbara Ann came out by the Beach Boys, It would have blown his mind.
