Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In" (commonly called "The Age of Aquarius" or "Let the Sunshine In") is a medley of two songs written for the 1967 musical Hair by James Rado & Gerome Ragni (lyrics), and Galt MacDermot (music), released as a single by The 5th Dimension. The song peaked at number one for six weeks on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 pop singles chart in the spring of 1969. The single became the first medley to top the American pop charts and was eventually certified platinum in the U.S. by the RIAA

The 5th Dimension is an American popular music vocal group, whose repertoire also includes pop, R&B, soul, and jazz.

Originally known as The Hi-Fi's,[1] the group changed its name to The 5th Dimension in late 1966 and was best-known during the late 1960s and early 1970s for popularizing the hits "Up, Up and Away", "Stoned Soul Picnic", "Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In", "Wedding Bell Blues", "One Less Bell to Answer", "(Last Night) I Didn't Get to Sleep at All", and The Magic Garden LP.

The five original members were Billy Davis, Jr., Florence LaRue, Marilyn McCoo, Lamonte McLemore, and Ron Townson. They have recorded for several different labels over their long careers. Their first work appeared on the Soul City label, which was started by Imperial Records/United Artists Records recording artist Johnny Rivers. The group would later record for Bell/Arista Records, ABC Records, and Motown Records.

Some of the songwriters popularized by The 5th Dimension went on to careers of their own, especially Ashford & Simpson, who wrote "California Soul". The group is also notable for having more success with the songs of Laura Nyro than Nyro did herself, particularly with "Stoned Soul Picnic", "Sweet Blindness", "Wedding Bell Blues", "Blowin' Away", and "Save the Country". The group also covered music by well known songwriters such as the song "One Less Bell to Answer", written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David and the songs and music of Jimmy Webb, who penned their hit "Up, Up and Away", including an entire recording of Webb songs called The Magic Garden.

Adp79: Hi, it's February, 2018 as I write this--and yes, of course, newcomers such as myself are still checking out your video. First of all, Thank You. If you hadn't done this video, then there wouldn't be anything like it for this song here on YouTube. And now that I've said that, can you handle the "critical" part of my comment?.....Listen, I realize that this may not be your fault or anything--and I didn't come here to lay blame (even though it may sound like that's what I'm doing). I need to say, though, that I think this would have been far more dynamic and engaging if it were in High Def. Widescreen format (instead of Standard Full Screen), and I see it as a shame that something this heavenly wasn't done at its full potential in that regard, which would have made it one of the best, most ethereal music videos that YouTube has ever seen. If you're still with me, then I admit, I don't know the logistics of making the type of video happen that I'm talking about (although, I have occasionally seen OTHER Widescreen YouTube music videos that seem to be in either High Def., or some kind of "Def." that's better than so many of the muddled, fuzzy, blurry ones that unfortunately don't do justice to the music that they are representing...) Making music videos is not my forte, unfortunately--but since you have a leg up in doing it, and some experience, then if there's ever any chance of a High Def. re-do here, I would absolutely encourage it--and please send me an alert if that ever comes down the pike. Can't wait to see it!Cheers!

We are still living in the age of Aquarius and so there is still hope of love overridding hate.  Peace out and may us baby boomer's enjoy our bonus round there is much still left to be done.  Love the Fifth Dimension they were one of my many favorite bands of my youth.
