    Honestly, this woman's voice and beauty were so captivating. I was 10 years of age when this song was popular and had such a crush on her.

    This song was written by the late great Laura Nyro and the 5th Dimension did a great job singing it.

    Marilyn was gorgeous, and a great singer. She could have done anything in showbiz that she wanted to, and did.

    This song is actually a true story. She eventually married fellow 5th Dimension singer Billy Davis, Jr. and they have now been together over 60 years. Billy is the one who does the killer ad lib vocal solo at the end of Let the Sunshine In!

    This is what real talent looks and sounds like. I have loved the 5th Dimension (and Marilyn!) since I was a kid and first found my Mom's record collection and asked her if I could play them.

  • @kpowers

    Yes, my favorite song from the 5th dimension. How can you not like this song. I loved when Marylin was a co-host on solid gold

    This is truly live------------and you get to hear just how incredible they really were. I saw them 3 times in the 70's, & again, in '91, on their reunion tour. Remember, they WERE married, by this time. -------------The 5D were a class act, all the way, & marilyn was so gorgeous it was not fair.

  • @j20tower
    @j20tower 3 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    Pure delight. I was a teenager when I first herd they’re great sounds. Why don’t they make music like this anymore. Keep playing the good music Lizzie and I’ll be listening.

  • @1stltwife
    @1stltwife 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Back in the day, we all loved her and the group! Great music, total class act still. You too Lizzie. Just adorable!

  • @BetterGreta13
    @BetterGreta13 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I remember being so in love with this song when I was around 12 or so in 1970 when it came out! I remember walking home from the park listening to it on my transistor radio and wishing my voice sounded like Marilyn McCoo's! I ended up being more of an Ann Wilson when I finally started in bands! Great reaction, Lizzie! You are beautiful and graceful as always!

  • @smoothjazzrob8061
    @smoothjazzrob8061 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I was a 13 year old growing up in New Jersey when this came out in 1969. I think this had to be the best song of the year, and my favorite by the 5th Demension! Seems you have a love for the old music! Brings back some wonderful memories. 🥰

  • @k1hasard
    @k1hasard 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Bill is playing hard to get LOL. She wouldn't have had to ask me twice :-) Marilyn's voice is so powerful and clear, she has a great voice. I remember their songs from when I was younger, they were pretty popular on the radio. It's nice to hear this again after not hearing it for so long. Take care and stay safe.

  • @martyemmons8692

    They're still married. She and Billy came in our store in Beverly Hills recently. Such nice people. Always loved this video. Everyone in the Fifth Dimension is so beautiful and talented. And Marilyn has one of the most beautiful voices in music history.

    I’m pretty sure they’ve been married over 50 years. My mother had the 8 track and I listened to this stuff back in early 70’s when I was like 10 years old. Great group.

    I don't quite know how in the world I was so blind at the time to never quite notice what a beauty Marilyn was.

  • @DavidBDavis-lz7bt
    @DavidBDavis-lz7bt 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Oh yes, I'm one of many, many, many who had a crush on Marilyn then; I was just so knocked out by her beauty and talent. But this is just such a beautiful song on its own; the orchestration, the harmonies(as you point out), everything. And I love the way you recount the song's message; I truly like the way you express yourself. Take care, Miss Lizzie; hope that these are good times for you. If you need a way to cope, you've found a good one.🌞😊

  • @gregorybrown3272
    @gregorybrown3272 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    A little background on this song : This was the The Fifth Dimension's second attempt at a vocal group, the first version of the group split up and the former members formed the group Friends of Distinction, this change resulted in Marilyn becoming the lead singer, she had always sang harmony and this song was the first one she sang lead on, she was so nervous that she was unable to sing the song all the way through, and they ended up having to assemble the final recording, line by line, from numerous takes. As you can see from this performance, she got over that shyness right quick!

  • @stevefarrell7211
    @stevefarrell7211 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hey what's going on Liz? Another great 5th Dimension song, with their fantastic harmonizing! Ironically, Marilyn and Billy are married! F.Y.I. the tall light skin brother (Lamonte McLemore) with the beautiful eyes like yourself use to be a centerfold photographer for "JET" Magazine in the 80's (It use to be a very popular Black Magazine) 1945-2014, if you don't remember or never heard of it ask your parents... On that note take care and stay safe! Peace Out!

    Hey Liz! I am a new subscriber--love your channel! Thank you for doing the 5th Dimension. I am an old timer and not enough reactors do them So I'd like to recommend another song and I hope you will react to it. Seeing how you loved "One less bell to Answer" so much I think you would absolutely love even more a song by them called "If I could reach you". It's beautiful and I think it's a song every woman can relate to. Please?

    Hi Lizzie they did one of the videos with her in a wedding dress and bill in a tuxedos everyone was dress up for the wedding. Its funny and I think they was a little younger. You can find it on TH-cam i love it. Also her one less bell to answer video where they are dress like chess players . She really kill it with that performs. They where know for they fashion statements and the California soul sound. Like you are the Hippie gangsters they gave the hippies of the sixties the fashion of that time. LA soul sounds just one of many artists from Los Angeles CALIFORNIA. So check the videos out you will love them and look up their Gallery for their fashion style. Thanks 😊 bubble rock 1965. To 1971.peace and one love 💘 ❤
