One of their greats, penned by Laura Nyro. I had such a crush on Marilyn McCoo when I was a kid. She is so beautiful and so is Florence. Almost 45 years have passed since then. Billy Davis is a very lucky man, both he and Marilyn have been married for a little over 50 years.
I don't blame you for having a crush on Marilyn. I had a thing for her back then and today, watching this group by the magic of RU-vid I the fire comes back. A class act.
The 60s dancing is so joyful and beautiful . My older brother had the LP this was off i used to love it as a kid and still do, what a group they were, fabulous!
This is one of the most "energetic" live performances I have ever seen from the 5th Dimension. The clothes and the choreography reflect the times (1968) but their performance is timeless.
Come on guys, this was the 60s where outfits were outta this world! These fit right in with the times and actually looked conservative compared to other groups! lol
There's Marilyn wearing her go-go boots. My family moved from the city to a rural school district in "68" and all the kids was like "What are you wearing?" My go-go boots you hicks! I wanted to look like Marilyn. She was my favorite singer. I was in the fourth grade. White and loving the 5th dimension. I didn't know anything about racism. Heck my first grade teacher, Miss Patton, was a black lady. I loved her! All I knew was this was great music! LOL!!!! Still is.
I remember they brought that style marilyn has on in the 8os iwas in my 20 s tall slim too it dosnt look good on every one it i ihope it dosnt come back ever tho
The 5th Dimension...NO one could sing this like Marilyn...The TOP class act above all the others...I can listen to these songs for hours...and HAVE for over 50 years
A beautiful song and such a great live performance with a really good band arrangement! I think it’s so important to credit the brilliant genius composer of the song, the late great Laura Nyro. She wrote many of the fifth dimension top hits, and Laura put out a few albums with her back up vocal group called LaBelle. that vocal group was led by Patti LaBelle, who obviously went onto great fame in the music world.

Earth Wind & Fire influenced by the Dimension heavily especially the horns and Harmonizing
This, has to be one of the best ,highly produced " Live" chart performances on the Tube. The harmonies and vocals are just spot On. This, group is Flawless.When arrangements meant something. Can ,watch a thousand times easily...The real deal.Flying w/ Flo.-Thanks...
I was in like the 4th Grade when this fine group came to be. IMO- I give these people as much weight as The Beatles or Jimi Hendrix. And of course Marilyn McKoo was as gorgeous as they will ever come.
They are doing this live! That isn't readily apparent because they are so smooth in their transitions and it was common to lip synch on TV shows of the time. Outstanding!
My favorite of their performances of Stoned Soul Picnic; although I did like the slow surry they did in the 70s. But in this performance you can tell this is one of their favorites at the time.
@@johnharvey1903 Indeed! You hear Florence scream "OW" when the Song breaks into High Tempo! Awesome Vocals, Beauty All Around, Talent, Energy, Rhythm, Groove, Harmony, and The Outfits, UNIQUE as all Get Owt! OW! Loved them! They Had It All, ROCKED IT!
Oh my gosh, I just love these guys. Marilyn McCoo and Florence LaRue are so great! And I just love Billy Davis Jr., so powerful. Lamonte McLemore, who brought everybody together, and Ron Townson round out the group very well. So much fun to watch them!
They harmonize perfectly The Outfits was just stunning I loved everything about the 5th Dimension! That was a singing group I am so happy to have heard them as I was growing up, real singing!
