This was absolutely the most beautiful thing I've seen in a long time. Her voice is so powerful and the dancers movements were both chaotic and soothing - so perfect with her voice.
We dealt with a lot of problems in the 1960s and came out a better society. Today, we deal with problems and they get worse. The age of Aquarius was replaced by the age of greed. We advanced, but we really should go back.
The problem is that greed is human nature. It never went away, and it won't go away. Society can build in checks for it, I believe it's possible, but hard.
Wow -- many people don't realize what a blend of great talent came together. Twyla Tharp's choreography was inspired! And I always loved the orchestration of this passage!
I saw this movie when I was 16 back in 1979 and loved it, but the hippie in me didn't start to come out until the very first time I heard Janis Joplin sing back in 1987. Today, 60's music is almost all I listen to, especially 1965-1973 :)
Dressage is the French word for schooling and isn't inherently good or bad. Classical dressage teaches horses to carry themselves more efficiently, but the show world can of course be ugly with more focus on achieving high level maneuvers whether the animal is physically and mentally ready or not. The best horsemen and women I know give all of their animals a classical dressage foundation before training for a specific discipline, because when done right it's in the animal's best interest.

I've played this so much! I loved the cast album when I was a kid in the 70's. I'm glad that's on RUclips too. Me and my friend Eileen used too skip school and listen to it. We wished we were around in the 60's so bad. (We were, but we were toddlers)!!!!

Great Video! Great opening! Thanks for posting. The original "Occupy Wallstreet!" Yes, Impossible not to love the hippies. What a cool scene, so well choreographed (twyla tharp) with the hippies weaving down the hillside in mottled garb and all the mottled autumn leaves on the ground. What a voice on the singer. Makes me want to believe in something.
This is a great film, and I was fortunate to know one of the producers, Michael Butler. They were singing about the dawning of the Age of Aquarius...the introducing of new ideas and ways of being...which has been happening all this time. The actual Age of Aquarius only began THIS YEAR, so embrace the changes and focus on harmony and understanding. It is here.

There's a boogie of the desert coast of the Eastern cast a giant shadow wave lengths. And, then there's a 70's far out to be mindful of it's gingivitis. The graphic good sturdy is the later and with teams working to mapping out from far away to see the platonic teams on board and watching always till you lower the mountains secured down the deep luxurious blue that stays that way checks in it all before lowering balls deep. Give that thang no vassel dazzle and a Crystal Blue Persuasion in good faith.
I'm so tired and just... ready for this to be the truth. I don't think that the transition will take as long as it probably should, lol, but it still feels longer than I am comfortable with... erg! Lol, give me a cave till it's over.
Great momentous esoteric essences "Hair" + enjoyment of effort. SEDNA Now closing in nearing+approaching Earth, a Planet returning from very deep space, guiding peace.
When I was a little kid I asked someone what this movie is about and he said it's about a bunch of people who never take baths and like to poop on each other.
yes thats correct some guy hit him when he was on his motorcycle he flew 15 ft in the air and died not to long after arriving at the trauma center in Albany New York the accident occurred near route 30 in Dorset Vermont treat was only 71
All that love, all that gentle humor and compassion, all our work an determination to make the world a better place for everyone all those years ago. Did it matter at all? I look at the world around us and I wonder. I'm in my 80s now but I still have that desire for that world of harmony and understanding.
All of these hippies are now bankers , corporate cronies,or some form of capitalist participants. Idealism doesn’t pay for the bills if you’re responsible enough not to have checked out
I’m 70 and was still in my early teens during the summer of love, but its effect on me was huge. I also saw Hair live in my late teens. As a European in those days America was my dream and I did manage to go there a few times. On my second trip, I went to San Francisco and later captioned my photos with “Haight Ashbury, where the one-time hippies are now ‘respectable’ parents of punks” (the term respectable was more tongue-in-cheek). I still say the 80s changed everything. Kids were more concerned with brands than politics.
My mother, Nada Simić, was the leading star of 'HAIR' in former Yugoslavia, current day Serbia, between 1969-73. She led the opening for each song - for 'Aquarius', they had her in a meditation pose, with flowers in her hair, pouring her heart and soul into each rhythm and beat. We attended the 50th anniversary of the musical last year in May, here in Australia. Not only were we both brought to tears by the phenomenal performance, but I got to experience, for those 2 hours, what a glimpse of life was like half a century ago. I felt a spiritual presence take me over, as I was incredibly moved by the elements of my mother's life and how humanity, as a whole, lived and breathed in harmony throughout that period in history. Greetings from my mother and I in Australia - she still sings to this day and she's almost 70 years old!
How wonderful! I'm so glad you had such a profound experience. That spiritual presence is real. And while it showed you, that evening, the harmony that lived in that period in history, know that "harmony and understanding, sympathy and trust abounding, no more falsehoods or derisions, golden living dreams of visions" live with us all the time. We just have to be willing to see them and invite them into our consciousness. Blessings on you and your mother. My heart can hear her singing from here, halfway around the world.
@@JeffFreemanPresents I couldn't have said it any better myself. We are the cosmos made conscious and life is the means by which the universe understands itself. What a time to have been alive that period was. My mother send her warmest regards to you and yours, wherever you may be 🙏💫
@@eleynasimic I'm in Seattle, about to go to Guadalajara tomorrow to learn how to build shelters for people displaced by disasters. But I'm not far from you -- -we are all close in spirit. Much love.
This movie was released in 1979, maybe a dozen years or so past the period it depicts, but this amazing opening sequence really captures that moment of cultural joy, hope and youthful defiance. How many times did I go to see this movie just to revel in this soul-lifting song and singer Ren Woods's jubilant declaration, not to mention Twyla Tharp's quirky, inventive choreography. Kudos as well to director Milos Forman, who did the impossible in bringing this groundbreaking musical to film.
I hate to age myself but I was tiny little thing when this came out, about 4, and my dad bought the soundtrack on tape for me. I played it so much I burned the tape inside. I literally played it to death. This will always have a place in my heart.
im 19 and watched this film for the first time two days ago, I was left with one dramatic tear down my face and a dropped jaw at the end of the film. I was aware of it growing up as my mum had the dvd but i never paid much attention to it and thought it looked weird, but my choir did this song and i thought you know what this is actually a banger so i asked her if we could watch the film together. She is Czech and remembers seeing this film in the secret screenings there when it was released so has a strong connection to it. Im glad i waited so long to see it because i can apreciate it so much more. Such a brilliant film, genuniely in my top 5 and i wish i had friends that would want to enjoy it with me and apreciate everything about it, contemplate the meanings, enjoy the songs, etc.
On March 20th, 2020 at 2pm in India, "the moon was in the 7th house and Jupiter aligned with Mars". The coronavirus made everybody aware that our way of life has to change so let the New Age begin :-).
We need a whole new set of Hippies today....where's the love , where's the good message and examples of love like there was back in the days of the "Hippie" movement!
@@lepoetress I was fortunate enough to see the movie in 1979 the year it was released. Ironically enough it was during them summer when I was on an 8 week training course in the local militia unit. I loved the movie back then and it has stuck with me ever since. I have owned the VHS version of it and now have it on DVD. I highly recommend seeing the movie at least once in our lifetime.
+Steve I saw it in '79, too! Loved it from the first time I saw it. I don't think I've ever seen a choreographer's style match the subject matter as perfectly as Twyla Tharp's did the hippie love children in this movie. She caught exactly the right flavor, with her tight-loose seemingly unstructured movements. (I especially love how she captures the time dilation effects of being stoned by occasionally slowing the dancing to a crawl and then speeding it up again.) And the way the story was adapted was great because let's face it, the play as written would have been impossible to film as a movie. It's brilliant, everyone is wonderful, and the music will always be glorious. :)
It is not the first time that this type of concept distortion has occurred. When Uranus entered Aquarius at the end of the last century, the same "announcements" occurred as the beginning of the Age of Aquarius. Another big mistake. What determines the beginning of a new astrological era is the constellation aligned with the Sun during the equinox of 20/21 March. And this axis, still points to Pisces and will remain there till 200 years.
Approximated dates for entering the Age of Aquarius range from 1447 A.D. to 3597 A.D. Some astrologers say the Age of Aquarius actually began in 2012. The star Regulus in the constellation Leo marked the ancient border between the constellations Leo and Cancer. This star moved to within 30 degrees of the September equinox point in 2012, meaning that Regulus left the sign Leo to enter the sign Virgo in that year. Presuming equal-sized constellations in antiquity, that places the border of the constellations Pisces and Aquarius at 150 degrees west of Regulus, or at the March equinox point. By this reckoning, the Age of Aquarius started in 2012.
I was an extra in the movie Hair in Central Park. We dressed like hippies for the acid trip scene. I think we were 15. And got paid $25 a day from Central Casting - but no free lunch cause we weren't SAG members.
This film is what I believe is referred to as a timeless masterpiece...Everything came together beautifully. Thank you to everyone involved...I can't wait to have kids so I can make them watch it.
Being born under the sign of Aquarius (Jan 21, 45) and being of the sixties generation this song has special meaning for me. I was born in Denmark, grew up 30 miles south of Copenhagen, came to the US in January 67 as an au pair in Westport Ct. Lived in Westport 67 and 68, then after a few month back in my native country came back to the US, and move with friends to New York CIty. I remember the cast of "Hair" giving a free concert in Central Park, sometime in 69, in 71 when I had moved to New Orleans with my then boyfriend we went and saw the whole musical. Still love the songs, and still remember the vibes from that era. It was the best of times i.e, music, freedom etc. it was the worst of times i.e. the Vietnam war the assassinations JFK, MLK and last, but not least RFK.
I totally agreed!! And even I'm Brazilian, see how crazy it's: My mother, professor of arts and music, let me watch in old cassete video, and even without translation so, I'm like grown lissen this song and entire movie, even without a translation lol!! But, many years after I have the knowing of what this movie represents in American and world culture, I think the question of drugs was heavy, as I don't use no one, but, let theses questions aside, the movie and MAILY songs are so good, hain?!! Thank you to up load this perole, even so years ago!! So, very thank you from future, or, better saying, from our present to yours huh?!! Thank you and we see you budy!! Sorry, because I want to say thinks to the up loader, but it's ok, think you to you too huh, lol?! :))
When she goes "And the mind's true liberation" I am getting shiver and goose bumps all over my body. The shift is definitely happening for me right NOW.
Renn Woods knocked it out the f.kin park, maybe the most impressive vocalization I've ever heard, and that is just over a shitty phone speaker. Can't even imagine what that would be like in person. Whitney's "I will always love you" is the only thing I am thinking of that is even close. how much range and power she flexes with just the word "aquarius". But I could be way off.
My mother had the original cast recording LP of this from 1968 and I played it to death as a child in the 80s. I saw the 50th anniversary live tour just yesterday. Absolutely amazing, and still relevant today.
@Nomorequestions 0 Not everyone was serial killers !! so ridiculous to relate Manson and Hippies ..it's the same to relate Hitler era and all the music which were released in that era
Twyla Tharp's choreography is brilliant. And the tumble the guy does around 4:30 is the smoothest move I've ever seen. But who messed with the framing?
"Wodnik" to piosenka rozpoczynająca musical " Hair" - według mnie musical wszech czasów. Okres wojny w Wietnamie, lata hipisów i przyjaźni, jaką teraz trudno uświadczyć. Cieszę się, że moja młodość mijała właśnie wtedy.
I just hope that my future children will be as amazed by this movie/musical as I was when my parents showed it to me! Unfortunately the issues are still relevant… But I love this movie and its message with all of my heart!
Hey guys, don’t lose hope, 12/21/2020 is the time of Aquarius. It’s coming, changes will happen. We are becoming more altruistic, let’s spread it out!!! ❤️☮️
@Arty Bookworm your feelings must be really messed up, I’m sorry if I touched a soft spot. How can you say that of someone you don’t even know. The only person hating and cussing here is YOU! Funny thing, I’m a foreigner myself, so your ridiculous made up theory does not proceed. Peace.

We dealt with a lot of problems in the 1960s and came out a better society. Today, we deal with problems and they get worse. The age of Aquarius was replaced by the age of greed. We advanced, but we really should go back.
Amen to that!

The best horsemen and women I know give all of their animals a classical dressage foundation before training for a specific discipline, because when done right it's in the animal's best interest.

A song with no political views, no racism. Just about love, peace, freedom. We need that in today's world.
I'm pretty sure hair and so with it the use of aquarius in the movie has some pretty major political views..

Io ero piccola ma li vedevo sti fulminati mi piacevano tantissimo
Cool and neat❤☺️
There's a boogie of the desert coast of the Eastern cast a giant shadow wave lengths. And, then there's a 70's far out to be mindful of it's gingivitis. The graphic good sturdy is the later and with teams working to mapping out from far away to see the platonic teams on board and watching always till you lower the mountains secured down the deep luxurious blue that stays that way checks in it all before lowering balls deep. Give that thang no vassel dazzle and a Crystal Blue Persuasion in good faith.
The next day is great for staying home.There's a person who's got to dance..and, home making reception work.Homework.
Today's young college kids should watch this
It’s today!!!
No ano de 1980 eu asssti este filme. Muito bom!
What a voice!
I'm so tired and just... ready for this to be the truth. I don't think that the transition will take as long as it probably should, lol, but it still feels longer than I am comfortable with... erg! Lol, give me a cave till it's over.
Great momentous esoteric essences "Hair" + enjoyment of effort. SEDNA Now closing in nearing+approaching Earth, a Planet returning from very deep space, guiding peace.
RITROVATO I MIEI RUGGENTI ANNI '70 NATA NEL 1941 ➡️🧝EVVIVAAAA 💃 GRAZIE NON HO BUONA VISTA UDITO SÌ 🎼🐣
Well hello 'Mrs Griswold'❤
Age of Aquarius, Sedna -"discovered dwarf Planetoid at 0° Gemini ∆ Pluto". Neptune is now (*Sextile*) exactly between both outer planets.
When I was a little kid I asked someone what this movie is about and he said it's about a bunch of people who never take baths and like to poop on each other.
What about the Summer of Love 2020 can't you feel it
Like that part "The Lord will take good Care of you" " Hehe"
Renn Woods with those flowers in her hair looked like a goddess.
Ein Klassiker aus meiner Jugend.
Wo sind all die Hippies hin ?
Gibts die noch ?
Falls ja: Hey, ich will Mitglied werden !
Rest in peace, Treat Williams.
He was still young
😢i think He died Last year in a Car accident with motorbike😢
yes thats correct some guy hit him when he was on his motorcycle he flew 15 ft in the air and died not to long after arriving at the trauma center in Albany New York the accident occurred near route 30 in Dorset Vermont treat was only 71
Still enjoying in 2024 🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉
And the burning of the draft card, Vietnam veteran 1967-68 ARMY.
Me too....I love it 😊
All that love, all that gentle humor and compassion, all our work an determination to make the world a better place for everyone all those years ago. Did it matter at all? I look at the world around us and I wonder. I'm in my 80s now but I still have that desire for that world of harmony and understanding.
I'll be 80 in July. Saw Hair live on stage in Ft Worth TX. That musical changed my life forever. So wish peace and understanding has ruled the world.
All of these hippies are now bankers , corporate cronies,or some form of capitalist participants. Idealism doesn’t pay for the bills if you’re responsible enough not to have checked out
Still wearing my tye dyed jeans and t shirts. my favorite is my purple tye died Cheshire cat t shirt saying "We're all mad here."
I’m 70 and was still in my early teens during the summer of love, but its effect on me was huge. I also saw Hair live in my late teens. As a European in those days America was my dream and I did manage to go there a few times. On my second trip, I went to San Francisco and later captioned my photos with “Haight Ashbury, where the one-time hippies are now ‘respectable’ parents of punks” (the term respectable was more tongue-in-cheek). I still say the 80s changed everything. Kids were more concerned with brands than politics.
I am in my sixties and live in the Haight. nice to see yourcomment. ✌@@patriciamillin1977
My mother, Nada Simić, was the leading star of 'HAIR' in former Yugoslavia, current day Serbia, between 1969-73. She led the opening for each song - for 'Aquarius', they had her in a meditation pose, with flowers in her hair, pouring her heart and soul into each rhythm and beat.
We attended the 50th anniversary of the musical last year in May, here in Australia. Not only were we both brought to tears by the phenomenal performance, but I got to experience, for those 2 hours, what a glimpse of life was like half a century ago. I felt a spiritual presence take me over, as I was incredibly moved by the elements of my mother's life and how humanity, as a whole, lived and breathed in harmony throughout that period in history.
Greetings from my mother and I in Australia - she still sings to this day and she's almost 70 years old!
I was moved to tears by your comment
How wonderful! I'm so glad you had such a profound experience. That spiritual presence is real. And while it showed you, that evening, the harmony that lived in that period in history, know that "harmony and understanding, sympathy and trust abounding, no more falsehoods or derisions, golden living dreams of visions" live with us all the time. We just have to be willing to see them and invite them into our consciousness. Blessings on you and your mother. My heart can hear her singing from here, halfway around the world.
@@avihalberthal3898 Thank you for your kind words and sympathy. Many blessings to you, always! 🙏💕💫
@@JeffFreemanPresents I couldn't have said it any better myself. We are the cosmos made conscious and life is the means by which the universe understands itself. What a time to have been alive that period was. My mother send her warmest regards to you and yours, wherever you may be 🙏💫
@@eleynasimic I'm in Seattle, about to go to Guadalajara tomorrow to learn how to build shelters for people displaced by disasters. But I'm not far from you -- -we are all close in spirit. Much love.
This movie was released in 1979, maybe a dozen years or so past the period it depicts, but this amazing opening sequence really captures that moment of cultural joy, hope and youthful defiance. How many times did I go to see this movie just to revel in this soul-lifting song and singer Ren Woods's jubilant declaration, not to mention Twyla Tharp's quirky, inventive choreography. Kudos as well to director Milos Forman, who did the impossible in bringing this groundbreaking musical to film.
I hate to age myself but I was tiny little thing when this came out, about 4, and my dad bought the soundtrack on tape for me. I played it so much I burned the tape inside. I literally played it to death. This will always have a place in my heart.
Theater play was written at least 10 years before.....
im 19 and watched this film for the first time two days ago, I was left with one dramatic tear down my face and a dropped jaw at the end of the film. I was aware of it growing up as my mum had the dvd but i never paid much attention to it and thought it looked weird, but my choir did this song and i thought you know what this is actually a banger so i asked her if we could watch the film together. She is Czech and remembers seeing this film in the secret screenings there when it was released so has a strong connection to it. Im glad i waited so long to see it because i can apreciate it so much more. Such a brilliant film, genuniely in my top 5 and i wish i had friends that would want to enjoy it with me and apreciate everything about it, contemplate the meanings, enjoy the songs, etc.
a banger indeed :`D
I first saw it around 1984. I still cry every time I see this film .
I saw Hair in 1969 in London at the Shaftesbury Theatre with the same Broadway production team. I was then a student.
Always remember it was a leftist dictatorship that made your mother watch this in secret.

This is the age of Aquarius! This is the great awakening! I love you all, happy 21 december!🌟🌠⭐🌞🌈
❤❤❤❤❤
Astrologers do not agree on when the Aquarian age will start or even if it has already started.
Incorrect
I have Much optimism for the coming years, it time we all come together!
We know! 🌹
God Speed Treat Williams. Enjoy Heaven, you will be forever remembered and missed. ☮🕊
Yes indeed. He was a good actor❤
On March 20th, 2020 at 2pm in India, "the moon was in the 7th house and Jupiter aligned with Mars". The coronavirus made everybody aware that our way of life has to change so let the New Age begin :-).
and now, the demons will come out of the woodwork.
That’s my birthday.
And when is exactly happen again next time?
Will it happen again in 2022, I'm counting more in that year.
Sweet!!!

We need a whole new set of Hippies today....where's the love , where's the good message and examples of love like there was back in the days of the "Hippie" movement!
That lady with the flowers in her hair is singing the hell outta that song!!!
Yeh. She certainly took ownership of that thing.
She sure did!!! I have yet to see this movie, but that is a great opening scene.
@@lepoetress I was fortunate enough to see the movie in 1979 the year it was released. Ironically enough it was during them summer when I was on an 8 week training course in the local militia unit. I loved the movie back then and it has stuck with me ever since. I have owned the VHS version of it and now have it on DVD. I highly recommend seeing the movie at least once in our lifetime.
Steve Douglas Everyone says its a powerful movie. I may have to check it out.
+Steve I saw it in '79, too! Loved it from the first time I saw it. I don't think I've ever seen a choreographer's style match the subject matter as perfectly as Twyla Tharp's did the hippie love children in this movie. She caught exactly the right flavor, with her tight-loose seemingly unstructured movements. (I especially love how she captures the time dilation effects of being stoned by occasionally slowing the dancing to a crawl and then speeding it up again.) And the way the story was adapted was great because let's face it, the play as written would have been impossible to film as a movie. It's brilliant, everyone is wonderful, and the music will always be glorious. :)
When it seemed another America was possible..........
Dec 21 2020 -- It's today we enter the Age of Aquarius (as they call it).
It is not the first time that this type of concept distortion has occurred. When Uranus entered Aquarius at the end of the last century, the same "announcements" occurred as the beginning of the Age of Aquarius. Another big mistake. What determines the beginning of a new astrological era is the constellation aligned with the Sun during the equinox of 20/21 March. And this axis, still points to Pisces and will remain there till 200 years.
Approximated dates for entering the Age of Aquarius range from 1447 A.D. to 3597 A.D. Some astrologers say the Age of Aquarius actually began in 2012. The star Regulus in the constellation Leo marked the ancient border between the constellations Leo and Cancer. This star moved to within 30 degrees of the September equinox point in 2012, meaning that Regulus left the sign Leo to enter the sign Virgo in that year. Presuming equal-sized constellations in antiquity, that places the border of the constellations Pisces and Aquarius at 150 degrees west of Regulus, or at the March equinox point. By this reckoning, the Age of Aquarius started in 2012.
I was told it was 2012
2012 Mayan/Aztec calender entered new age 'Aquarius'.

I was an extra in the movie Hair in Central Park. We dressed like hippies for the acid trip scene. I think we were 15. And got paid $25 a day from Central Casting - but no free lunch cause we weren't SAG members.
Cool! I was in the scene in DC in front of the Lincoln Memorial... somewhere in that huge crowd! A fun day.
I often think of those people in this scene---now 40+ years older, but hopefully with the same joy!
awesome movie!!
WOW
I gree my hair long thank you .its still long
This film is what I believe is referred to as a timeless masterpiece...Everything came together beautifully. Thank you to everyone involved...I can't wait to have kids so I can make them watch it.
Being born under the sign of Aquarius (Jan 21, 45) and being of the sixties generation this song has special meaning for me. I was born in Denmark, grew up 30 miles south of Copenhagen, came to the US in January 67 as an au pair in Westport Ct. Lived in Westport 67 and 68, then after a few month back in my native country came back to the US, and move with friends to New York CIty. I remember the cast of "Hair" giving a free concert in Central Park, sometime in 69, in 71 when I had moved to New Orleans with my then boyfriend we went and saw the whole musical. Still love the songs, and still remember the vibes from that era. It was the best of times i.e, music, freedom etc. it was the worst of times i.e. the Vietnam war the assassinations JFK, MLK and last, but not least RFK.
Great story
I'm obsessed with the 60s 70s and 80s
Especially new York
Those were the good ole days
@@bobbobertson6249not really we were just super limited to what we could record. Times were extremely tough but we wouldn’t see it
In my universe it was a great time
VERY well spoken! Thank you for your wonderful 'story'---regards--me.
Thank You.@@jackinthegreen5178
I toured in a Broadway version of the film in 1980. It was so much fun to do. This was a great way to open the film.
👏 😮 👏 wow ...tell us more
Thanks for sharing
Italian translation of lyrics about this musical instead just suck to me
This entire scene is absolutely amazing and for me the two people dancing with the horses is the best part.
This voice is timelessly impressive!
yes...
RIP Treat Williams. I had a big crush on him from this movie!
Best musical
Best song
Best scene
BEST CHOREOGRAPHY
Best costumes
Best message
Best ideas
Best cinema
Thank you! Never gets old!
best great director
Well I'm a huge Rocky Horror fan and I also love the Jesus Christ Superstar and Cats, but yeah Hair is great too
@@XanAxDdu Milos Forman - RIP....From an original theater play
I totally agreed!! And even I'm Brazilian, see how crazy it's: My mother, professor of arts and music, let me watch in old cassete video, and even without translation so, I'm like grown lissen this song and entire movie, even without a translation lol!! But, many years after I have the knowing of what this movie represents in American and world culture, I think the question of drugs was heavy, as I don't use no one, but, let theses questions aside, the movie and MAILY songs are so good, hain?!! Thank you to up load this perole, even so years ago!! So, very thank you from future, or, better saying, from our present to yours huh?!! Thank you and we see you budy!! Sorry, because I want to say thinks to the up loader, but it's ok, think you to you too huh, lol?! :))
No argument here. This movie rocks.
Choreographed by Twyla Tharp. I love the horses - brilliant.
When she goes "And the mind's true liberation" I am getting shiver and goose bumps all over my body.
The shift is definitely happening for me right NOW.
Me too, it's a great feeling :)
Same here...A greeting from Italy
It's the drugs!
And a year later we are even CLOSER! I have always loved this song and it has always spoken to me!
Total deception!
Milos Forman-RIP....Great director....He also directed "Taking off" and "Amadeus" about Mozart's life
Also, directed the Oscar Best Picture, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
@@DrLA-db8kk True...Great movie starring stunning Jack Nicholson, Danny De Vito etc
I loved the horses! Their prancing was adorable. 😄😍
I hope they treated 🐴 well
Her voice has the power to touch higher feelings in my self. It is like a pray.
She is singing the absolute tar out this great song.
Renn Woods knocked it out the f.kin park, maybe the most impressive vocalization I've ever heard, and that is just over a shitty phone speaker. Can't even imagine what that would be like in person. Whitney's "I will always love you" is the only thing I am thinking of that is even close. how much range and power she flexes with just the word "aquarius". But I could be way off.
No. Your Spot On
i have never cried so hard at the end of any movie like i cried at this one
heart breaking such a good movie
and this song is so moving
My mother had the original cast recording LP of this from 1968 and I played it to death as a child in the 80s. I saw the 50th anniversary live tour just yesterday. Absolutely amazing, and still relevant today.
god bless the hippies, the cynicism towards everything and anything hippie related stopped being cool a decade ago.
@Nomorequestions 0 Not everyone was serial killers !! so ridiculous to relate Manson and Hippies ..it's the same to relate Hitler era and all the music which were released in that era
My god. That voice.
Still LOVE this.... after all these years....
Me too! ✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽❤️❤️❤️
DIO MIO, "HAIR".... CHE FILM!!!!! Il Film sul FENOMENO degli Hyppies e dei Figli dei Fiori ed ANCHE dell'AMORE LIBERO senza vincoli!!!!!!!
Twyla Tharp's choreography is brilliant. And the tumble the guy does around 4:30 is the smoothest move I've ever seen. But who messed with the framing?
TODAY IS THE DAY! The Age of Aquarius Officially begins on December 21, 2020! Here we go!
Jupiter allined with Saturno today
Don't celebrate so much, because jared kushner is the one who's going to gain power with all this. THE FINAL OF WORLD IS START
it's 2023 and i still love this movie forever and always.
I love the dancing in this movie, and the music, it's beautiful. Art in it's truest form.
"Wodnik" to piosenka rozpoczynająca musical " Hair" - według mnie musical wszech czasów. Okres wojny w Wietnamie, lata hipisów i przyjaźni, jaką teraz trudno uświadczyć. Cieszę się, że moja młodość mijała właśnie wtedy.
I just hope that my future children will be as amazed by this movie/musical as I was when my parents showed it to me! Unfortunately the issues are still relevant… But I love this movie and its message with all of my heart!
Me too. The moment I of heard it first on that show “head of the class” I was hooked. Lol
Hope so ,too!!!
Hey guys, don’t lose hope, 12/21/2020 is the time of Aquarius. It’s coming, changes will happen. We are becoming more altruistic, let’s spread it out!!! ❤️☮️
@Arty Bookworm “he loves war”, What a silly and misinforming thing to say... but hey, believe whatever makes you feel better.
@Arty Bookworm Please Tell me what they did in the Middle East. Because people love repeating things they hear without any knowledge whatsoever
@Arty Bookworm you believe whatever makes you feel better, yet, doesn’t make it true.
And yes, your speech is pretty hateful. Sorry...
@Arty Bookworm your feelings must be really messed up, I’m sorry if I touched a soft spot.
How can you say that of someone you don’t even know. The only person hating and cussing here is YOU! Funny thing, I’m a foreigner myself, so your ridiculous made up theory does not proceed. Peace.
No it's not.
