The 5th Dimension - Paper Cup

I agree. Marilyn is stunningly beautiful, as always, but she doesn't look like herself in this video. There's something about her make-up or hair (perhaps those bangs across her forehead) that makes her look different. Or maybe the grainy quality of the video is at fault.

I was thinking "Wonderama." I loved that show and its host, Bob McAllister.

Jimmy Webb was a prolific son of a gun.....

What makes you think I'm white?

LOl I thought I was the only white kid that had a crush on her......

I had such a bad crush on her when I was a little kid.

i was in the studio with my brother when he recorded the french horn part. cool memory.

Marilyn is on the same level of beauty as Halle Berry.

From the very young sound of the appreciative audience at the end, this must have been a (lip-synched) performance during a pre-teen dance show, like "Mulqueen's Kiddie-A-Go-Go" in Chicago. The choreography was definitely designed with a tiny dance floor in mind. GREAT STUFF!!!

Marylin McCoo looks so hot, as always. My favorite 5th Dimension song, written by master songwriter Jimy Webb. Those were truly happier times.

fantastic song that wa played a lot growing up .Mum was a Kiwi Hippie type. One note is that tall chick Marilyn , I cannot recognise her here .

Was this a better time or what? What a happy song! Look where we're at now. So sad... Come back 5th Dimension/sanity.

Thanks for posting.

this masterpiece should have been a bigger hit for them

Yes,it really is beautiful. I am very grateful that YouTube is able to do this. I am, in a way, able to go there.

That's the beauty of youtube, friend. Now you can go back there. It's really beautiful that young people of today can see what real talent is. The standards were higher back then. Today you can walk in off the street and claim you are a singer or rapper. Before, you had to perfect your craft first.
