Mamas And The Papas, The - Make Your Own Kind Of Music Lyrics
Nobody can tell ya
There's only one song worth singin'
They may try and sell ya
'Cause it hangs them up
To see someone like you
But you've gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along
You're gonna be nowhere,
The loneliest kind of lonely
It may be rough goin'
Just to do your thing
The hardest thing to do
But you've gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along
So if you cannot take my hand
And if you must be goin'
I will understand
You gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along
[Fading out:]
You gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song,
Make your own kind of music even if nobody
Else sings along.

Mamas And The Papas, The Make Your Own Kind Of Music Comments
she had such a beautiful voice, could only imagine what she still would have brought us.... god bless you cass.
Still immortalised by the hatch in LOST
LOST IS THE GREATEST SHOW EVER
Cass Elliot. Proof that beauty comes in all kinds of packages.
Awesome song!
Beautiful Song i like that.
Much prefer this version to the Paloma Faith one?
lost brought me here
That Song was a Solo Song of Mama Cass. Not of the Group!!!
Never be another voice like this ever again
My older Sister -- Cecilia Ann Cavalier: 1953 - 2009 -- LOVED this tune! I loved her too. * Cav *
It’s class singing lead but there are other voices accompanying her.
Indeed i came know this song just watching Lost!
what did the snowman say to the other
Sue heck deserved it
this lady had so much talent ! we need to keep her memory alive .
thank you for your music x x x x
4,8,15,16,23,42
This song brings back memories, doesn't it bruthra?
There will never be this kind of music again, sad : (
A Cass song.
desmond
This is just Mama Cass - not Mams & Paps
Nobody can tell ya;
There's only one song worth singin',
They may try and sell ya,
'Cause it hangs them up to see someone like you.
But you've gotta make your own music
Sing your own special song,
Make your own kind of music even if nobody else sings along.
You're gonna be knowing
The loneliest kind of lonely,
It may be rough goin',
Just to do your thing's the hardest thing to do.
But you've gotta make your own music
Sing your own special song,
Make your own kind of music even if nobody else sings along.
So if you cannot take my hand,
And if you must be goin',
I will understand.
But you've gotta make your own music
Sing your own special song,
Make your own kind of music even if nobody else sings along.
But you've gotta make your own music
Sing your own special song,
Make your own kind of music...

You know this was a Cass Elliott solo hit, right? You really should correct this mistake. Cass was the better of the two ladies. Why do you list it as Mamas and Papas if it was Cass solo?
Time to press the button brotha
The Middle brought me here. Sue Heck 😃
P.s. don't forget ti press "execute"
Ci vediamo in un'altra vita, fratello...<3
Rest in peace mrs. Horn
22 of the others watched this
Damned straight. Timeless.
love ths track
CASS,Thank you for making the 1960's so special!. I MISS YOU!
The production on this is amazing. That kick is so thick! The strings are rich but have bite. Everything's clear in the mix. Damn, son!
Simplesmente amo ...
L O S T !
too much hate in the world let's be brothers and sisters again peace
Will never happen. Been hate for centuries all over the world and that will not change.
Beautiful song 🎵🇬🇧 better than the satanic 😈 LGBT chart music industry ⭐😬👎🐍
Thank you for your honesty and observations 👍👍👍 Spread you message 😁😀
Cass was so beautiful and what an amazing singer what a legend
This song was played the other day on the radio at work and I remarked that whoever has done the up to date version was very good, but it wasn't a patch on the original. The much younger people were surprised and said "was this done before?" to which I replied "yes it was, about 40 years ago, by the Mamas & Papas." They thought it was a brand new song! LOL!
Man that song still sucks. A real heavy weight group though. Pound for pound the best group of the day.
456swagger Well aren't you a nasty, hateful little stinko!
Instant classic.
Sue from The Middle.
Melody A+++++++++
Eat your heart out Paloma Faith...You cant touch the original
the mamas and popers were years ahead of there time .and I don't think you will see the likes again.I'm from Liverpool England .RIP the lads and Cass love you and always will.
So moving, goosebumps!
Love this song beautiful xx🏍🏍🇺🇸🇮🇹🇬🇧☕️🍫
Never watched Lost. My relatives of an older generation listened to this when they were going out
Great loss! x
i like this song from mamas & papas & paloma faith.😆
Well at least lost and Dexter have good taste. Making a 60/70s classic fresh again
By Mama Cass Elliot, get it right. *Edit*
Goatlips Exactly! I remember it being released it was Cass Elliot
fab song what a vioce
I have always loved that song.
2018. SAVE. #1. DJ. LAUREL. CYN. MIMI. CHEN. RULES canyonlocalfilmscom
Not The Mamas & Papas. Cass Elliot all by herself.
This is a Cass Elliot solo song and not a Mamas & Papas song.
Anyone want to organize another Summer of Love and this time, keep the Counterculture alive and well?
Joey Jolley I know I’m late to the reply, but sure! I’m down lol
Let's bring back thee Counterculture! I'd be willing to tolerate their strange ways in exchange for their great music!
Wonderful song! But it does make me think of "The Partridge Family" when I hear it.
the singer is Cass Elliot, NOT The Mama's & Papas. Also the song is correctly titled "Make Your Own Kind Of Music" which was first recorded by the Will-O-Bees in 1968, and covered by many others after Mama Cass Elliot had a top 40 and easy listening hit with it in summer of 1969
Eko: John!
Locke: I was wrong...

Man to be back in the 60's....:)

I LOVE LOST❤️

voix extraordinaire et inoubliable
WOW! All the references to "LOST" are giving this song a great new revival...just like "The Walking Dead" did for the Bee Gees; "Django Unchained" did for Jim Croce; and, "Preacher" will do this season for Dexy's Midnight Runners. Awesome! :)
I love this song with or without lost.
Drop the gun
Zio Desmond

I just came here to say 4 8 15 16 23 42 lol. I really love Lost series ❤️
Mama Cass choked on a sandwich huh..
She Died from a Heart Attack due From losing 70 Pounds causing her heart to Stress, Wich Triggered it, yes her Sandwich was Untouched. And she also died in her sleep.
Ham sandwich!
False dramatic story as usual. She tragically died in her sleep she was brilliant.
Before Lost came Beautiful Thing> Lost
Dream a little dream of me 🍷🍷🍷
Miss Lost!
They're bringing it back!
Mr Lost!
I seen all 6 series and it lost me in 5 n 6 what the hell was it all about lol was they alive wasnt they alive etc etc lol
I find Mama Cass to be a particularly haunting historical figure. Just the irony of this happy, up-beat song combined with her unique and at times bizarre (and dysfunctional) life is rather chilling. I think she's pretty amazing, but just reading her full Wikipedia (and watching 2x01 of Lost of course) and then listening to this again... I get rather uncomfortable chills.
I found your comment interesting Alexander. I too find Cass Elliot to be a haunting historical figure and one I can't help feeling pity for.
Jack .....Jack......JACK
The group is awesome!!!!
LOST (S2E1) and Dexter (S8E2&8)...
seen everything then shazamed
lost <3
Lost <3
The fact that Cass Elliot's genius voice has to be associated with the overrated travesty that was Lost is sad.
It was a good show for some, depends on their tastes. I do agree that people shouldn't know about Cass only because of LOST, she was an amazing singer and should be remembered by more people in todays generation. In my opinion LOST using her song as a tribute. Anyways, Cass Eliott was an amazing singer and this generation mostly remembers her from LOST, but cut them some slack. Most people weren't alive in her era. I was introduced to her by LOST and Ive been a fan of the Mamas and The Papas ever since.
Had you even heard of this song before Lost brought it to people's attention? How do you think people become aware of songs that were released in the '60s, or any time in the distant past, when they are rarely heard now? You'd rather people never learnt of them? Ok. :'(
The writers were lost after season 2.
millers3888 your garbage
This is the most ironic shit I've ever read! LOL
This song brings back so many memories to the 'Lost' fans :)
I'm a very new fan...
IKR!!!! Lost is soooo good and now I love this song♥️♥️♥️♥️😊😊😊
the best music will be written by hyde anyway
dexter brought me here
Simone Chinzari but will you stay?

"Brotha" makes me wanna speak like that...
One of my favorite voices of all time.
