Marilyn McCoo Up Up & Away, Last Night I Didn't Get to Sleep

[easyscore]

What a knockout. The whole package.

[lottashooz]

there will NEVER be music like this again...

[DrJCliveSpiegel]

She has a unique voice and their repertoire was full of tremendous hits filled with emotion. Wonderful!

[ballisticbliss]

She is one beautiful woman besides an amazing singer.

[sintiacarlaps]

E como ela 'brinca' com a voz....que voz incrívelllllll

[3657nina]

such a beatiful woman & a beautiful song

[50maz]

Now theres a singer wow

[mikeys12]

so sexy!!

[Noex63]

marilyn is a real vocalist...no strained vocal gymnastics...just grace and power...Beyonce is Sh#t...

[ronhart89]

Wow. I'm 40 years old and this lady can still make me weak in the knees. What a babe and what a talent.

[65rainbowchild]

WOW A1 all the way

[Wolfsky9]

OMG Marilyn, you are just so gorgeous- & you'll always be! Wolfsky9

[GAYFORTWORTHSINGLE]

just look at here and the first lady of our country...,,may i say what a difrent they look alike...

[jackdav34]

@GAYFORTWORTHSINGLE I disagree. I think Marilyn's far better looking.

[911insidejo8]

@jackdav34 ...uh, yeah, I'd say.  Michelle Obama has a nice figure but otherwise looks like a flippin' praying mantis (not her fault); McCoo is absolutely ravishing in every way. I mean Marilyn McCoo is just gorgeous.

[ElSenorChet]

@911insidejo8 YES, SHE MOST DEFINITELY IS!!!

[wvburkert]

Please come back, Marilyn.

[jjgreek1]

that 80s hair!

[whitebitchnigga]

How did we go from this to Rhianna?

[911insidejo8]

@whitebitchnigga ...I get it, the female pop singer types today are just such sleaze bags.

[BallsandPinstripes]

stunning woman, stunning voice. no one today, 2010, can touch her.

[coronet72]

Love Marilyn's singing. She is certainly a pleasure to listen to and professional all the way around.

[jba2323]

PLAY VEGAS

[LeconsdAnalyse]

Beautiful!

[ggigie]

woooooooooooooow!

[jba2323]

MAKE A COME BACK

[lovetrain442]

Beautiful and very classy woman. She is one of a kind. I love her.!!!

[jba2323]

LOVE YOU MM

[jwsf941]

What year did this air?

[uselessjoe]

When she hosted "Solid Gold" I was able to do photo shoot of her, the "Solid Gold Dancers," and out of the blue shows up James Brown...Those were the days. Marilyn still has it..

[ndhudecz]

Singers today can't keep up with her great voice,classy lady

[motorcitymiguel]

Your pretty much right unfortunetly.....

[easyscore]

That is a beautiful women and talented as well

[GodHand898]

Absolutely beautiful...Marilyn is still amazing. Would love to see her live. Come to Raleigh, NC, Marilyn. :)

[DrHogfan]

What a voice ! Still. She and Karen Carpenter should have sang together.

[vcoaster]

I was just watching (on Netflix) a 5th Dimension TV special from about 1971 with The Carpenters as guests. It was amazing to see both groups back in their glory days. The show was called The 5th Dimension Travelling Sunshine Show. Check it out.

[oldbag699]

shes beautiful inside and out  -

[jackdav34]

I agree!

[javelin1010]

She makes Britney, Natalie, Jessica and all those other pretenders look sick. The other only have past "hits" and current problems. Marilyn is and always been a class act. Thank you.

[dawn08341]

Yes she is a class act. I like this clip. Do anyone know what year, date this was record.

[easyscore]

include coke head whitney houston as well.

[nutothis1]

@javelin1010 you are right. Marilyn is class. these singers today just "look" class.

[ronscons]

All those wonderful superb hits she did and she was still in my mind one of the most under-rated stars of all time!!

[cyshadowx]

Just a wonderful performance. She is such a timeless Beutiful Talent

[philwasgood]

I have to say that Marylin is truly one of the finest female vocalists ever if not the best any chance of her or the two of them touring the UK in the future?

[TheRippper]

Last Night is one of the greates tunes in history... This is coming from a KISS, Judas Priest and Iron Maiden freak

[woodie62]

She sounds better doing it live like in this vid. She doesn't sound too good doing it in studio.

[priscillaofmanila]

TERRIfiC.

[newtonbooth]

Lovely then, lovely now, with a spectacular voice. They really broke the mold with Marilyn McCoo.

[pilesovinyl]

I couldn`t agree more. I think "One Less Bell To Answer" is a song that I will always get goosebumps listening to. Everything she did she sang flawlessly. And what a beauty,this from an aging 53 year old white man...

[neneshubby]

Don't worry about that bro. Fine is fine no matter what color it is, and she is fine!

[woodie62]

I agree 100% with ya doc!!!

[jackdav34]

Beautiful with a wonderful voice. What's not to like?

[lasharul]

oh this old classical music...

just love it

[tbkulavik]

Beyonce who?

[TheRippper]

Did Marilyn do the ORIGINAL "Last Night " vocal we all grew up with on the radio? If so - she is BEYOND wonderful. I just thought Dionne Warwick did a few of 5th Dimension hits...

[kpitt1204]

She did the only version that I remember. I saved my allowance to buy this 45. I played that record over and over. i am sure I drove my parents crazy with it.

[ButchMSLPig]

Mariloyn sang lead on all the "female hits" the 5th had .. Such as "Last Night, One Less Bell, Wedding Bell Blues, If I Could Reach You, Loves Lines Angles & Rhymes, Never My Love & Flashback" .. She is without a doubt, my fave vocalist of all time ...

[gaspo218]

All those classic records, back up band ?? (the Wrecking Crew). Now those guys could play. Look em up.

[guglielmo64]

Her voice was so underrated!

[dburr13]

Marilyn McCoo has one of the best pop music voices ever...Her talent and beauty have endured through the many years since the Fifth Dimension.

[ButchMSLPig]

yeah the 4 octave range is still Strong .. most artists seem to lose their voice as they age .. she must have taken care of her "instrument" well .. U go Girl ..

[Noodleydoo]

Man I was getting nervous that she'd never be able to hit that highest note in Up Up and Away but she did it effortlessly--naturally I was nervous since my own singing voice resembles a dying yak's death rattle. Anyway these live clips really show how good Marilyn really was/is.

[jackdav34]

She has a both a beautiful voice and a beautiful appearance.

[Shiftyeyes516]

BEAUTIFUL!

[sdingeswho]

My God, what a *voice* this woman has! Thank you, mccoofan! I think the only other voice I'd even mention in the same breath, among female vocalists, is Karen Carpenter. Very different, stylistically, but they both had that just *un-Earthly* resonance that made you prick up your ears and say "Whoa . . . where did *that* come from?" Someone once said "the great [performers] always hit you like they'd just dropped in from Outer Space", and MMcC is definitely one of those! :-D

[Ianpbx]

McCool!

[Waszma]

Billy Davis JR. is one lucky dude. What a well preserved beauty....

[Plutoplatter]

Wow! WOW! Marilyn....OMG....now I can't go outside for a while.

[mxmikol]

LOL...Good One...

[camiguin]

Man, I love Marilyn's voice! Is there more of this show posted?

[philipcarol]

Does anyone know what Miss McCoo is doing these days?

[philipjlaws]

Mariln and husband Billy have just released a new CD The Many Faces Of Love. She is still beautiful. You can find the CD on their MySpace site or McCoo Davis online.

[Dav68Chs]

Thank you so much for posting. '..Didn't Get To Sleep At All' is my all time fav and this is the only performance, or part of a performance I've seen. I love it, thank you.

[philipcarol]

Last Night's author, Tony Macaulay is one of the best songwriters in the business, with well-written hits recorded by many artists. The quality of his songs are at the pinnacle of pop, with freshness & flowing tunes almost guaranteeing them to become hits. Both "Love Grows Where My Rosemary Goes" & "Last Night I Didn't Get to Sleep at All" are two of the best, most perfect pop ballads of all-time. You owe it to yourself to find-out more about Macaulay. His influence is greatly felt to this day.

[bobcooksey]

Man those high notes scare me!

[mccoofan]

Hmmm... I think those notes just take you by surprise since it's only Marilyn singing, and the song is in an entirely different key from the original. After a listen or two, the high notes sound kind of cool, I think! I agree, though, "we can float among the stars together" might be little pinched...

[bobcooksey]

Sorry--I guess my post wasn't exactly clear--I meant that I can't believe she could hit those high notes! I am so retarded that it never dawned on me that she must be able to hit them since she always did in the 5th--but hearing her alone really shows how good she was.

[tyson55]

She was still hot here!!
