Why was pleasant valley Sunday wrote?

It was Carole King's comment on the peculiarities of suburban life and the competitive nature within. It was also written as a vehicle for The Monkees (the first group to record the song) to make use of a guitar riff interlocked with bass, developed by producer Chip Douglas, because he was looking for the next big guitar riff along the lines of "Day Tripper" and "Last Train To Clarksville".

Who wrote the song Theme from The Monkees?

According to allmusic.com, "There would be original material generated for [Th Monkees] to sing in the [TV] series, mostly by professional songwriters like Tommy Boyce, Bobby Hart, Carole King, Gerry Goffin, and Neil Diamond." Most of these songs were the early hits, like "I'm a Believer," "Last Train to Clarksville," "A Little Bit Me, a Little Bit You," "Pleasant Valley Sunday," "Stepping Stone," "Take a Giant Step," "Valleri," and "Words". Later, The Monkees wrote more of their own material, but nothing that would be as big a hit as those mentioned above. In October 1996 in honor of their 30th Anniversary, The Monkees released an album called Justus (meaning Just Us), and that's exactly what it was from start to finish anything & everything that went into it was by the 4 Monkees (Micky, Peter, Davy & Mike), from the song writing (lyrics & music), to the singing & instruments to the production! Although all of the Monkees did very occasionally write their own material the only regular writer was Mike Nesmith. He wrote many of their songs such as "Girl I Knew Somewhere", "Mary Mary", "Listen To The Band" and many others. He also produced many of the sessions himself.
