Marilyn McCoo absolutely killed that vocal performance....

[@candicelitrenta8890]

Marilyn McCoo was also very beautiful. You need to watch them live

[@ferdinandfrancis9673]

And she is still is😊

[@realtruth716]

a very attractive woman

[@user-wy6mo1vr8t]

She could sing the cereal box ingredients and id be a deer in the headlights

[@myradevereaux1288]

Facts I was gonna say the same thing

[@bearballin]

The Fifth Dimension was the real deal. Marilynn McCoo was the lead female singer and her husband Billy Davis Jr was the male lead vocalist. This group of 5 gifted singers brought a combination of pop, folk and soul into the music. Highly recommend listening to "Last Night I Didn't Get to Sleep", "Stone Soul Picnic", "Wedding Bell Blues", "California Soul" and their signature song "Aquarius/ Let the Sunshine In". In the late 60s/ early 70s they commanded every television variety show of the day. Don't hesitate checking out their live performances. They brought the choreo!

[@New_Czar]

Facts. Thanks for sharing the background info. These youngins need to know.👍🏾

[@pedward323]

Her husband Billy is standing right next to her in the Soul Train video of them performing this song ,many should see ,and they have now been married for 54,55 years now ,are in their 80’s. 🎉.

[@icmman7]

i was 10 with a biiiig crush on marilyn mccoo

[@citypaintersllc2874]

Chaka khan was asked what was missing with today's so called music ....her answer....talent.

[@martyemmons1859]

I watched that interview also. Chaka Khan certainly gets straight to the point.

[@pedward323]

So true the artist of today would not dare be able to sing on a stage or anywhere else not knowing how to sing . It would turn anywhere into an Apollo situation anywhere where you will be booed snd things thrown at up, removed from the stage.

[@JohnD-wo9ov]

Marilyn McCoo is the singer. This cover by the 5th Dimension is 54 years old and still sounds great.

[@davetrave1]

Marilyn McCoo is married to Billy Davis, the other lead singer in this fantastic group to this day.

[@reneehoward72]

Marilyn McCoo is 80 years old NOT 54! Born in 1943.

[@a.c.6475]

Listen!...the 70's had their share of problems, Watergate, gas shortages, hostage situations, airplane hijackings, blackouts etc. But the music of the 70's was the soothing elixir that helped us cope with the world's issues.

[@dagmar.6954]

The 5th Dimension had so many great hits in the 60's-70's such as "Go Where You Wanna Go", "Up, Up & Away", "Medley: Aquarius/Let The Sunshine In", "Stoned Soul Picnic", "Sweet Blindness", "Wedding Bell Blues", "California Soul", "Workin' On A Groovy Thing", "Never My Love", "(Last Night) I Didn't Get To Sleep at All", "If I Could Reach You", "Love's Lines, Angles & Rhymes", "Living Together, Growing Together" etc.

[@peterdavis8471]

The good ole days when music was real music

[@martyemmons1859]

I know there are more of their great songs that should be on your list. One of my favorite songs by The 5th Dimension is "Ashes to Ashes". Some of the lyrics in their songs touch real emotions that I have.

[@Starr-d-v8x]

I was actually shocked this song made it to your playlist because I didn't think you would feel it, but you surprised the hell out of me. You are more musically mature than I thought. This was one of my favorite songs growing up! Trust me, there's a lot of musical treasure out there still buried. You haven't even scratched the surface yet.

[@CharlesBrown-pv1lc]

GOOD GOD 👍

[@arthurlangford5861]

Marilyn McCoo is the singer and fellow group member and co lead singer Billy Davis are husband and wife! They are still performing together to this day after 50 plus years of marriage, still sounding and looking fabulous!

[@kurtjohnson4816]

The melody and chord changes in this tune are very complex, most pop singers wouldn't even attempt it. But McCoo absolutely kills it.

[@aliciamartin2024]

Keep discovering all the GOOD music and you'll feel it deeper and deeper! The 60's and 70's were a blast!!!! Everyone was listening and grooving!

[@jeffreiland7463]

Hadn't heard this song in years, and got curious. Both Davis and McCoo are still alive and have now been together for 53 years. He is 85 years old and she is 80. And they still perform at select venues. Amazing.

[@bradsense7431]

Marilyn McCoo on lead vocals. Talent, class and beauty.

[@wordsofwisdomtvnetwork7488]

Am I the only one who smiles the entire time Ashley is reacting😁

[@larky368]

Singing is so much more than merely producing the correct notes. Very few singers can reach down into their very soul and make others feel what they are feeling. Marilyn McCoo had that ability and also had one of the most technically flawless vocal chords. She brings tears to our eyes.

[@martyemmons1859]

You are absolutely correct. One of their seldom played and known is "Ashes to Ashes". Almost everything has changed since I was growing up.

[@gabgarcia5446]

Lovely song and the perfect group to perform it.....the age of great music....thank you

[@clutch236]

Ashley, thank you for recognizing the harmony & musicality of this song and other "classic era" music! That lead singer (Marilyn McCoo) is married to the male lead singer in the group (Billy Davis Jr.). At some point the couple left to make songs as a (duo). I'm proud to say that the replacement for Billy Davis Jr. was none other than my 1st cousin (Danny Beard), who did a great for them for a "few" years, until tragically he died in a hotel fire....Anyway, Good reaction!

[@sylvanaire]

It makes me happy to see so many of the younger generation, exploring the older music from my day. I don’t think I appreciated it enough when I was living through it. The fifth dimension has many great hits as commenters before me have listed. I think my favorite though is Up, Up and Away. When I was in elementary school, the local high school put on a talent show at the end of every year, and one of the acts was of that song. They had built a papier-mâché balloon that actually lifted off from the stage (mechanically, not with hot air, lol) with patchwork colored balloon and 57 years later I still remember it fondly!

[@way2deep100]

Marilyn McCoo and fellow lead singer and husband Billy Davis Jnr. had a big hit with 'You Don't Have To Be a Star (To Be In My Show) after 5th Dimension split. They also recorded the original 'Saving All My Love For You', a cover of which earned Whitney Houston her first #1 and first Grammy.

[@martinpascoe7678]

'one last egg to fry' WHAT A GREAT LINE

[@hervehightower2364]

this takes me back to a time where music was so good here the 5th dimension don't talk about much they were a great group for the 60's and 70's and 80's they music is timeless that time was so special that why i miss the eighties i know people degrees special they were born then you don't know unless your family tells you but i haven't heard this song in long time.

[@MzBettyK]

This is such a great reaction, Ashley. You nailed it precisely in every way. That is Marilyn McCoo who is married to a member of the group, Billy Davis, Jr. For 53 years, they have been married, I am reading. The video is a treat to watch as well as all of the hits. Thank you 😊.

[@rodneywitherspoon257]

I played this song at my wife's funeral I miss her so much this is my favorite song

[@miltonslocum8957]

Another beautiful old school classic! Loved your reaction Ashley. And your comments were on point. The quality and depth of music from the 60's and 70's is absolutely amazing! I'm really enjoying your journey.

[@quixote6942]

I always thought that if they had done a Biopic of Marilyn McCoo back in the 90's, they could've used Denise Matthews ("Vanity".... RIP). Very Similar Looks and Singing voices. Other GREAT 5th Dimension songs are "Age of Aquarius", Up up and Away" and so many others. Marilyn sang quite a few songs about her Man, Fellow 5th dimension Singer, Billy Davis Jr. A Couple were "the Wedding Bell Blues" and "I didn't get to sleep at night".

[@meknottyou3998]

I agree. Vanity had the looks; for sure. But, that’s where the similarities end. Vocally?!?: she absolutely could not compete with Marilyn McCoo. Ever.

[@leroyjames2825]

I love that face you make when you hear good music.

[@carlahorton9577]

Hey babygirl👋! I am 62 sweetheart and one thing is for sure with my generation, music saved our life... With all the bad things that went on in the 60s 70s and 80s, music was all we had... I'm so happy that you are enjoying the same things that brought us joy in this crazy world ❤..

[@CPACK1]

They were a great group.

[@wordsofwisdomtvnetwork7488]

1,000 views in 7 hrs!! Ashley you have the best songs

[@2GunRock]

It's Marylin McCoo, one of the best female lead vocalists of her era (or any era), and she also looked like a Supermodel. I could be wrong, but I think she was a beauty contest winner prior to becoming a star, and make no mistake about it, The Fifth Dimension was a hit making machine in their era.

[@Barrythevol]

I can't help but wonder what she would think of this song knowing that the emotion obvious in this performance was really performance. Her husband was in the studio with her when she recorded it and was the leader of the group.

[@lbell5185]

It was so cute the way my little brother always responded to this song! Shaking his head like he had really been through some things at the age of 5 or 6!!😂😂😂

[@joannemcbride3795]

It has been way too long since i last heard this. Great song!

[@lucky4724]

As a teenager Deployed Overseas during the 70's this is the type music that brought a sense of calmness during sone hectic times for us youngins so far away from home. And yes kept us homesick!! 😂 Shout out to the 86th Tactical Fighter Wing!! afsc 1-65130 #MilitaryLife🇺🇲Hooah 💪

[@Eric4471066]

This song was the Fifth Dimension's biggest hit song of the 1970s. The song did peaked at the #2 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart during the late fall of 1970. This beautiful, awesome song is a definite love song indeed!!!

[@martyemmons1859]

The 5th Dimension have songs that reach deep into my personal emotions. I was in the sixth grade when this song was released. The phenomenon I experienced is - I clearly knew and understood what she was singing about. "Ashes to Ashes" by The 5th Dimension is a song that increased my feeling of loss exponentially since it was released (1973). Every one of the songs on their Greatest Hits album triggers an eclectic spectrum of emotions. Their contribution of music to the world is equal to any considered to be among the best. Try not to feel hate for the 'music?' of today, Ashley. That is not what The 5th Dimension wanted to inspire with their music.

[@kurtadams3021]

Classic soul at its finest ❤❤❤❤

[@dwainwilder7337]

Classic! Thanks for bringing back the memories!

[@TheFargo116]

Would have preferred you reacted to a video of them performing....this group hands down has to be one of the greatest of all time when it came to harmonizing....led by Marylyn McCoo...from like 1968 to 1970 they were one of the top selling artists in the world ....they were groundbreakers and made black folks proud of how they represented themselves with CLASS.... I know KZbin has made it extremely difficult to show these videos Here is a link so you can watch this group on you own....they are GOAT status and had so many hits kzbin.info/www/bejne/oKLQhGVveL2BkJofeature=shared

[@marcelodarder]

❤👏👏👏🙌

[@user-pb5zl4rk3v]

Amen to what you said about the music and what you said about our world

[@ericstaton6896]

@Ashley Reacts! This is the absolute epitome of "Champagne Soul"! I suggest for your next song from this fantastic group, "Age Of Aquarius (The Flesh Failures)" music video! You will not be disappointed! Love, Peace & Blessings!!!

[@clutch236]

Fun trivia: Ashley, if you ever watch reruns of "The Jamie Foxx Show", you will see (5th Dimension lead singers/married couple Marilyn McCoo & Billy Davis Jr.) as the parents of Jamie's love interest on the show "Fancy" (played by Garcelle Beauvais).

[@CCTH2221-lp2zj]

The 5th Dimension were some of the pioneers of the Los Angeles soul movement. Most R&B acts in the late 50’s and early 60’s came out of the Midwest, South and East Coast. Very interesting and cool sound🎼

[@pamagnolia]

Fantastic group!! Love their music. Marilyn McCoo could sing food labels and I would melt!!

[@georgeanthony7282]

Ashley, you hit it on the mark!! Today's generation is simply missing out on some great written... well sung music... I'm 66 yrs old and I grew up listening to some of the greatest music ever... I wouldn't change it for the world!

[@worldwidebirthdaycelebrations]

Great reaction!....with not many pauses! Wonderful! God Bless!

[@edwardhammond1166]

Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis Jr. were the principal singers of the 5th Dimension.

[@hymanandhyman]

I qm in my 60's and I feel the same way when I first herd this heart broken and I was a child oh my goodness MAGNIFICENT SONG.

[@martyemmons1859]

That is a phenomenon that I also experienced. First I notice that nobody (youngsters) criticized The 5th Dimension as 'old folks' music. I know I never heard any disparaging comments in school. I was in the sixth grade when this was released.

[@BennoHaas]

Would like to see your reaction to probably their most famous song ... colorful, live performance is on youtube at ... The 5th Dimension Aquarius Let the Sunshine In [extended]

[@TheGreatGig73]

"This generation could never, ever" EXACTLY!

[@davidholmes0416]

McCoo is so good! 🔥 "Wedding Bell Blues" another great tune.

[@dwainwilder7337]

Please venture down that 5th Dimension rabbit hole.

[@jerrypost9651]

Great reaction, sweet Ashley. ❤ I grew up on this music, and by the mid-80s, all I've enjoyed is are these classic tunes. 😊👍🎸

[@tonyray7546]

Beautiful song

[@timothyb3121]

👑. You must do a reaction to this of them performing this song on Soul Train.

[@kurtschmidt9760]

You will never have these kind of songs again. It is sad but true just keep playing the greats dear.

[@wgdavis5353]

Hi Ms Ashley, This is a Great Song sung by the beautiful Ms. Marilyn McCoo; she is 80 and still looks Great.. They sing this song on Soul Train.. ♠Mr.G.. (W.G.Davis) P.S. Ms Marilyn is married to my cousin Mr. Billy Davis, Jr.. ☺ I forgot answer Ms. Marilyn's question: How and why could he leave me?? Answer; he is an idiot.. ☻

[@jamesowensxx2678]

60s and 70s black Americans were just made the most beautiful music ever ever to be heard on this earth. You can have your wrath you can have anything but you can give me Motown every time that’s the best music ever made.

You are a lovely young lady. I love your energy and your outlook. Keep spreading Love through this great music to your generation. Merry Christmas Baby! 🙂

You should watch the live video 💜

Just think about what we have to deal with when we have to do the upkeep to your car. Its about doing what you do because of your love for each other. Non of us perfect. But we can end making each other better people.

[@Vidgirl8]

The 5th Dimension was one of the top pop groups in the 70s. I grew up admiring them and loving their music. I just take for granted that everyone knew who they were so it's weird and fabulous to me that you've never heard of them. Please, please take a deep dive into their music. You will be astounded. ❤

The legendary Burt Bacharach wrote this song and many great songs for the greatest of the Era including Whitney Houston's aunt Ms. Dion Warwick. Check out " Walk on By " Dion Warwick written by Burt Bacharach! Just a lil history lesson. Even though it's before my time, I feel like you,, i used to be off that time or something.😁

It's just a song that she is covering. It's not her story but the 5th dimensions made it popular. Burt Bacharach wrote the song for Keely Smith who is a fabulous singer but no one has ever sang it so well as Marilyn McCoo

Yeah, its not like artists dont' have talent these days its just that the industry manufactures "products" based on perceived "customer" likes. Same with movies. Blame the industry ... in the old days producers where people like yourself, who love unique ness.... hopefully its coming back.

Honey, music pretty much ended in this country several decades ago, and you're just living in the ruins, that's why you hear music and think, why don't we have this? I am 68 years old, and I feel sorry for you guys. We had GREAT music, and that's not just some old guy telling you he likes the music he grew up with. I'm telling you, music per se is over. All we have now is the same musical phrases repeated endlessly as if that is music. But because it's all you've ever heard, when you hear actual music you are surprised.
