  • i listen to this everytime i need to feel happy

  • On this date in 1969 {Mar. 8th} "Aquarius/Let The Sunshine In" entered Billboard's Top 100 chart; on April 12th it would peaked at #1 {for 6 weeks} and spent 17 weeks in the Top 100...

    Ranked 2nd on Billboard's Year-End Hot 100 Singles of 1969 chart {#1 was "Sugar,Sugar", with 4 weeks at #1???}

    Sometime known as "The Age of Aquarius"

    Reached #1 on the Canadian Singles chart and #11 on the U.K. Singles chart

    Won the 1970 Grammy Award for 'Record of the Year'...

  • Viajo na música e no contrabaixo....Muito Show!!!!!

  • The man who really put this group, musicians, writers, producers and talent together is Johnny Rivers. He discovered these guys and put them together with all. He really is so talented but does not receive the credit. Beautiful song!! (I wish profanity was not allowed on youtube. It ruins the beauty of being able to express your views on music) thx 4 posting...

  • Great song and an even better record. Fantastic vocals, great production by Bones Howe, great arrangement and awesome bass playing by the great Joe Osborn, drums by Hal Blaine and Larry Knetchel on piano. LA studio playing at its best.

  • FUCK YES! Our glee club is singing this!

  • I'M TELLING MISS FINSTER!

  • tom cochrane wrote and performed life is a highway get your facts straight 4everluveh

  • everyone, please stop fighting over this song which was made for everything but an internet fight.

  • (continued) real singer of Life is a Highway (which is Rascall Flatts) was black I mean seriously you're offending me more then the other man.

    God you dip shit....

  • @beggin1967 wow i thought the same damn thing and my boyfriends black and I'm half and half first time I heard Christina Augilera I thought she sounded black these people sound white I thought that they were and when I saw this I was just as surprised as well so could you shut up and stop trying to start a stupid argument for attention. Guess what no body cares about what he said in fact I bet most people (of all races) thought the same thing I mean wouldn't it surprise you if the real singer o

  • im black and i hate niggers

  • listen,RDJ1109,let everyone know exactly why you expressed Surprise when you found out that the Fifth Dimension were Black.What i want to know,is why did you think in that format?in other words ,why did the description of the group so overwhlem you when it is the beautiful sound that should have pleased you on its own?and?

  • I just want to have a happy day filled with light and goodness and hope the dishes get done and the stars will alighn to make that happen! Maybe work in a few minutes of nymph like prancing in the garden... but, if not.... this song will do and let me get on with my day. Thanks gang!

  • Its like when you hear a voice on the radio and in your head its a white guy and then you see a pic of him and hes black. Not a big deal. Just not what I expected based off what I pictured in my head. I didnt expect them to be black. It doesn't matter that they. I just didnt imagine they were. Ok? Got it? You do understand that it's people like you that hurt race relations in our country today right?

  • RECESS SENT ME HERE!!!!!!!!

  • @TheUnknownPeach Me too!

  • don't you just feel like growing your hair out and dancing?

  • did this song in choirs my sophomore year (2009-2010) <3 was my favorite song that year!!!

  • I needed this! thanks..........

  • Wow, I had no idea this group was black. In my mind I figured theyd look like the mamas and the papas or something similar. Anyway, the first day of the new age of Aquarius was just a few weeks ago. That's why I'm here.

  • @RDJ1109 excuse me,but what does their color have to do with it? whould it matter if they were pink,blue,off white,yellow? people like you show your race hand very quickly.Rascist Pig!

  • @beggin1967 Racist pig? All I did was say I didn't know they were black. I hardly think that qualifies me for being a racist. Seriously, oversensative people like you are guilty of hurting race relations in our country and make it impossible to have honest dialouge. Don't just go around calling people a racist to prove that you aren't one yourself. So lighten up a bit and then pull the stick out of your bum.

  • @RDJ1109 you are so missing the point of this,sir.what i am asking you is why did you bring up color in the first place? does your mind operate like this: Wow,what a beautiful song, Wow again, they are Black.that would be like me hearing,say who loves you,and if i had not seen the Four Seasons, I go, oh shit,their White.I did not know! So what I ask is simple,is it the music you love or a color you hate. signed, a anglo/saxon/male.Hows that?

  • @beggin1967 You asked why I brought up color in the first place. My question to you is why is it a big deal if someone does? We should be able to talk honostly and openly about such topics without worrying what others will think. In America today we can't have open conversations with people of other races and cultures specifically because of over sensative people like yourself. Signed anglo/saxon/male/as well/ And?

  • This hit by The Fifth Dimension was the 115th #1 song of what is now Billboard's Adult Contemporary charts. It also hit #1 on the Top 40 charts and in Canada, #6 on the Rhythm & Blues charts, and #11 in the United Kingdom. It also did well in other countries, too. Their biggest hit.

  • This song has profound implications...

  • @veronik514 When the upcoming precession of the equinoxes takes place this will usher in a new "Age Of Light". A "Golden Age" Around the year 2100 electro-magnetic energy will be in full effect. As a result human consciousness will be at a all time high.

  • Seguro con estas piezas me hicieron jajaja

  • As Bill Simmons said "This is the dawning of the Age of Damarius!"

  • Thumbs up if 40 year old virgin brought you here!!

  • I love this song...! Thanks...!

  • sigh!

  • Good work. Thanks!

  • I loooove this song so much!! Great vid!

  • Just watched Hair. Epic song, really moves me.

  • is one of the singers florence? if yes which one? left or right?

  • @MyLalinea Florence LaRue ...on the right.

    

  • @MyLalinea Sorry. The picture to which I was referring was black & white and has Florence LaRue in a Black leather bra top w/ 6-pack exposed. Stunning.

  • Each and every one of these singers was heaven sent.  Their harmony never fails to move me.

  • Thumbs up if the recess movie brought you here!

  • what does "i do not own this song" mean? does it mean they didn't write it or something?

  • @MsCahill99 it means that they are telling the copyright enforcers of youtube, that this person doesn't own this song

  • people why cant you just maybe think heck these lines just happen go with the stars.. none this behind the meaning crap cant music be music and leave it bee?... Thumbs up if you agree..

  • @BMG4000 There's a reason why no one gave you thumbs up.

    Learn to make sense, Learn to spell and most importantly...Show some foresight.

  • nice work on lyrics

  • 42 años después me reencuentro con esta canción... somos de la misma generación

  • This is the dawning of the age of The New World Order, the farthest thing from peace as you can imagine. The illuminati under their occult worship have unwittingly fallen prey to the wiles of Satan and the world will pay for it.

  • @VitoBandito1 The sunshine refers to worship of the Egytian sun god Ra and behind all these false gods is, yup, SATAN.

  • @VitoBandito1 I don't exactly understand where you're coming from with this...

  • @Caleb5617 You're not alone, Caleb. The New World Order will be advertised as a Utopian government when instead, it will bring about a toatalitarian regime where all nations are ruled by one man and must worship one man who will be the Anti-Christ. The Illuminati who are a small group made up of elites that control behind the scenes all our institutions now, also control the music industry and through it they are giving warning that this one size fits all government is coming.

  • @VitoBandito1 They are Satan worshipers who believe that Lucifer is the God of light and use sunshine as symbolic of the ancient Egyptian god Ra and so by default, Satan, because Ra is a false god. Spirits that they summon give them the inspiration for the music that they produce and the false promise of a world government that will solve all man's problems. This song is one of many other examples of this. See also Sting's One World among his others having the same themes.

  • @VitoBandito1 There's so much to explain, it would take me forever. Look up Illuminati, New World Order, and Satanic Cult Behind the Music Industry to get an understanding to all this. The use of astrology and divination to access future revelation is something greatly condemned by the True God.

  • the significance of aquarius and the root chakra, it symbolizes rebirth or being born again the breaking of the water as a woman in labor this period will last throught out the dates assigned to this horoscope, the seal will be opened on the day of the horoscope is active. stand strong

  • Dear Ones:

    It is really true. Just simply taking in the the vibes, rays of the Sun will assist you immensely in raising your frequency--giving you time to explore this further. That is what this game is about. Will you control your life or will you let others drag you down?

  • i met one of the singers from the 5th dimension she came into my classoom

  • Derp, I don't know anything bout good music i just came here becoz of 40 yr old virgin cuz i'm a dumbass degenerate born post-1990.

  • 40 year- old virgin bring me here

  • @knackles346565 lucky!

  • Billy Davis is a God!! Listen to his enthusiasm!!! It sounds like he had the time of his life in the studio making this record!

  • Marilyn McCoo was the first female singer to join, and she was soon augmented by Florence LaRue; both were ex-beauty pageant winners who'd attended college in the L.A. area. Johnny Rivers signed the group in 1966 thus the Fifth Dimension was born. Their first single, "I'll Be Lovin' You Forever," was a flop, but a cover of the Mamas & the Papas' "Go Where You Wanna Go" climbed into the Top 20.

  • I find it's a magnifique song.

  • Thanks For The Upload, Even Though If The 40 Year Old Virgin Hadn't Have Been Made, No One Would Have Heard Of It, Except The Few And Far Between Including Myself...
