With the coronavirus going around, it's not the best idea to stay at the 'Y.M.C.A.,' but that didn't prevent the Library of Congress from inducting the signature tune from the Village People into the National Recording Registry
, the newest recording named.
"The National Recording Registry is the evolving playlist of the American soundscape. It reflects moments in history captured through the voices and sounds of the time," Hayden said in a statement. "We received over 800 nominations … to add to the registry. As genres and formats continue to expand, the Library of Congress is committed to working with our many partners to preserve the sounds that have touched our hearts and shaped our culture.
"I'm humbled and, at the same time for Glen, I am extremely proud," said Webb, who wrote "Wichita Lineman." "I wish there was some way I could say, 'Glen, you know they're doing this. They are putting this thing in a mountain.'" By 1968, London-born singer Springfield was already a success in the U.K. when she came to America to record what would become the defining album of her career.
"I had no idea when we wrote 'Y.M.C.A.' that it would become one of the most iconic songs in the world," singer Victor Willis said. "I am glad that the Village People has made the world smile for over 40 years with our music.", Gothic Voices; Christopher Page, Conductor; Hildegard von Bingen, Composer
