I like also her diction and the way she pronounces, and enunciates words. her singing technique is superb and her singing soft smooth, mellow, and oh so flawless.

      thedjc100 me too, but I'm educating my children. My 18yr old listens to Teddy Pendergrass, Etta James, is obsessed with what we in the UK call Northern Soul (Gloria Jones, The suspicions, Edwin Starr etc) So far, so good but more parents need to stop trying to be down with the kids by listening to what the kids like. Instead they should play Friends of Distinction's Going in Circles & 5th dimension's Wedding bell blues full blast all around the house. Tough love, but eventually the kids will see the light and never listen to Lady GaGa again.

The young kids ' musical tastes are still in their infancy and they will learn to choose better once peer influence on their choices wanes.

    Beautiful song, written by Laura Nyro, and sung by beautiful and talented Marilyn McCoo and the 5th Dimension. Billy Davis Jr. and Marilyn McCoo were married in July 1969, the same year Wedding Bell Blues was recorded and reached #1.
    Happy 50th Anniversary Marilyn and Billy! 🥂

Instead of the 5th D it was Shiela Ferguson and the 3 Degrees. No one, absolutely no one can top the 5th D and the Three Degrees in general and Marilyn McCoo and Sheila Ferguson in particular. God bless you and all your fellow Vietnam vets.
