Up – Up and Away is the debut album by American pop group the 5th Dimension, released in 1967 (see 1967 in music). The title track was released as a single and became a major pop hit.

Definitely a tune that brings back reminisces of a specific time.

Stupid song forces my brain to associate song with stupid TV show The Mothers-In-Law.

I hate this stupid song. It makes no sort of lyrical sense that I can see. It was sung by every singer on every variety or chat show for about a year and a half. I hate this stupid song. And let me say again I hate and have always hated this stupid song. Thank you.

The Fifth Dimension also did a version for radio station KRLA (the rock blaster at 1110 kilocycles, not today’s conservative talk station at 870 kcs). They would sing, “Up, up and away, KRLA!”

Thanks.

I saw the title scrolling through threads a couple of hours ago and this damn song has been stuck in my head ever since.

Dang, I thought this was going to be a video teaching us how to imagine the 5th Dimension.

I’ve been listening to a lot of their stuff recently. Nobody could do Laura Nyro’s songs better than they could.

I looked her up (Laura Nyro) - I didn’t realize she wrote so many hits performed by others.

Any 5th dimension song is a master class in vocal and instrument arrangement.
