Aquarius (18th May 1969)


Sorry this is a day late, but I wasn't around the innernets yesterday.

That said, this is the only link that made sense for Friday, May 18th - the 5th Dimension's Aquarius (18th May 1969).

Obviously, the cast of the 40 Year Old Virgin did a great cover and Hair spoof, but there's something special about the 5th Dimension's version that I can't put my finger on. Maybe it's because they're flying through space on a plate, like Cookie Puss in a Carvel commercial. Or maybe it's because they're having so much damn fun.

Whatever it is, I hold this video up as proof that drugs were stronger in the 60's.

Let the sun shine in this weekend. Happy (belated) Friday.
