      Except she changed, and I think im proved the lyrics. Origionaly it was young man not mind and she did not have the.line hang out with all the boys. She also would have gone to the ywca.

      They really found something in the music and lyrics that matches the essence of the YMCA Y Mind program. We have heard the original song hundreds of times and never thought there was a deeper meaning about mental wellness just below the surface.

      @racebarry8979 8 місяців тому +4

      In my opinion I strongly THINK that this song is the best
      Firstly it is super relaxing
      Secondly it is so nice and calming
      Now you know why this song is very nice

It all happens at the YMCA!! @@ymcacanada
