This is an awesome message for a young man starting their lives out away from their parents. This song did more for the YMCA then anything I can remember. I was in High School when this song came out, and it made me aware of all the good things that YMCA provides to young men.
So lange ist es her! Wie verliebt ich war in der Weihnachtszeit 1978. Schließe ich die Augen sehe ich alles wieder. Ich hoffe das Leben ist endlich gut zu Dir.
the first diverse group message to youth u can be anything u dream message of song andYMCAwas a great place to hang after school and weehends but just a mem now..... bring it back and help the youth of today have something to help them today.....
I remember being in the audience at the University of Miami dancing to their concert....MANY years ago,. Tonight they played free in Houston at an outdoor theatre, WOW.
Mandela Effect brought me here. Never was a military man in my history and memories. Only the Indian, Cop, Construction Worker, Biker, and Cowboy. Five members. FIVE. Always the iconic 5. Never a 6th member. Mind blown. O.o
Alternate member in some videos, at least the late '70s ones. The Village People have rotated in new members, especially when the original Leatherman died of lung cancer. The original Indian (Native American) has also sported Western wear, and they've had a newer member wearing more traditional tribal dance clothing.

I was just shaving one morning at home last week when I looked in the mirror and saw a NAKED MAN. I screamed and then called the police. What has gone wrong in this world? Something like this never happened to me when I was a kid!

Agreed!
Simply the most iconic song of all times!
I went to school in Muncie, Indiana with Mark Mussler who was in the group for a brief time. I have nice memories of Mark! He left us way too soon.
I went to school in Terre Haute. Our school mascot was the Sycamore tree. At football games Fighting Sycamore fans would yell "Sic 'em trees."
This is an awesome message for a young man starting their lives out away from their parents. This song did more for the YMCA then anything I can remember. I was in High School when this song came out, and it made me aware of all the good things that YMCA provides to young men.

I heard this song on a Richard Simmons workout, and I've been searching for it. Now I found it. Well done! Love this song.
Every time I hear this song it reminds me of my friends from my elementary school 😢🙂
it is incredible that a song that exists for such a long time is still so great
Gay Cowboy is my favorite
He's really into that song.
Stingy thx stingy

TheDigital 43 can u sub to me?
TheDigital 43 Same, I wonder who was responsible for doing it
This song is copyrighted and the other video likely had copyright issues. Its not some kind of conspiracy lol
Same in Canada
NOW you know how I feel when a Canadian song gets blocked in my country
This song never gets old.
Man, do those guys know how to point.

Mines the cactus.
Best disco group from the 70's and possibly of all-time!

When we went to Epcot we got front row seats to see these guys... There was only about a 20 person crowd. I felt so special right then.
Weren't there only 5 members?
Mandela effect
Spunky Dave i don't remember the soilder....
Alternate member in some videos, at least the late '70s ones. The Village People have rotated in new members, especially when the original Leatherman died of lung cancer. The original Indian (Native American) has also sported Western wear, and they've had a newer member wearing more traditional tribal dance clothing.
Mandela effect at the max
WTF

Young man, there's no need to feel down
I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground
I said, young man, 'cause you're in a new town
There's no need to be unhappy
Young man, there's a place you can go
I said, young man, when you're short on your dough
You can stay there and I'm sure you will find
Many ways to have a good time
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.

I said, young man, what do you want to be?
I said, young man, you can make real your dreams
But you've got to know this one thing
No man, does it all by himself
I said, young man, put your pride on the shelf
And just go there, to the Y.M.C.A.
I'm sure they can help you today
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.

Young man, I was once in your shoes
I said, I was down and out with the blues
I felt, no man cared if I were alive
I felt the whole world was so jive
That's when someone came up to me
And said, young man, take a walk up the street
There's a place there called the Y.M.C.A.
They can't stop you back on your way
It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.

Life is good!! YMCA by the Village People is back again on RUclips!

pablo sanchez Well yeah, the boys came back from being in Vietnam for many years, had kids, and enjoying a peaceful life after years of war. Who wouldn't be happy?
I never knew about this song until I went to camp Carson and now I really like this song.
i dnt remember an army guy?? lol mandela effect
He switched to a sailor uniform for In the Navy as well.
Also, that's kinda funny because in their movie, Can't Stop the Music, someone tells the army guy that he's so shy people just forget. ;)
i believe they got rid of the army dude in newer versions
Actually he's one of the original members who still performs with the group to this day.
I don't see why you'd remember him - I was transfixed by the stereotypical Indian the whole time :P
It's been awhile since I've been to the YMCA, I really enjoy the rock climbing.
Oh! And swimming.
The Song Is Good Not Literally Bad

This is the most legendary song ever
I stopped by the YMCA once just to use the bathroom and on my way there I saw a naked dude lol
I was just shaving one morning at home last week when I looked in the mirror and saw a NAKED MAN. I screamed and then called the police. What has gone wrong in this world? Something like this never happened to me when I was a kid!
Bah!! If you think that's bad. Try their locker rooms. Nothing but old men in their birthday suits.
This is some funny stuff. it's upbeat, and funny as heck.
