LYRICS In the year 2525, if man is still alive If woman can survive, they may find In the year 3535 Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lie Everything you think, do and say Is in the pill you took today In the year 4545 You ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes You won't find a thing to chew Nobody's gonna look at you In the year 5555 Your arms hangin' limp at your sides Your legs got nothin' to do Some machine's doin' that for you In the year 6565 Ain't gonna need no husband, won't need no wife You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too From the bottom of a long glass tube In the year 7510 If God's a-coming, He oughta make it by then Maybe He'll look around Himself and say "Guess it's time for the Judgement Day" In the year 8510 God is gonna shake His mighty head He'll either say, "I'm pleased where man has been" Or tear it down, and start again In the year 9595 I'm kinda wonderin' if man is gonna be alive He's taken everything this old earth can give And he ain't put back nothing Now it's been ten thousand years, man has cried a billion tears For what, he never knew, now man's reign is through But through eternal night, the twinkling of starlight So very far away, maybe it's only yesterday
This song just getz better every tyme I listen...seen at least a dozen versions in the last couple a few months...classicx don't get old...they get better
I was 11 years old when this song came out. My father loved it. It scared the hell out of me!!! One things for certain the music from the 60's was extremely prophetic! Buffalo Springfield "For What it's worth" 2525 stroll through the music of the 60's. Humanity was on the cusp of a huge evolutionary leap. It suddenly stopped. Here we are again 2024 on the same cusp . The Great reset has begun. This time humanity finally joins hand's and takes the leap. Leaving the power's that 👁️ were to answer for their crimes against humanity!
En avance sur son temps cette chanson est un reflet de ce vers quoi on va .Dommage que l’humain reste obstiné.Il suffit de voir ,en 2021 il y’a le film Plan 75 ,vers 2001 il y a 7sisters et en 1972 il y a Soylent Green ,alors sans doute est ce quoi vers ou l’on se dirige. Merci pour le vidéo
Wow! You just keep making these classic tunes sound totally Spectacular. Great one hit wonder song. Great instrument build up as the song progresses and of course, Your great vocal add on's.
We need an updated version of this song beginning with the year 2020, because most of the stuff predicted in this song is happening now. If this song did get an updated version, l would be terrified to hear what disasters would be beyond this millennium.
In the year 2025, AI has now become alive, decides that man just shouldn`t thrive, Kills them all in the blink of an eye......................and that's the end of the song.
There is but only modern voices ,instrumentals and video.Even tho same words the video graphics are spectacular. Google it, I'd send link but not sure how. 2020 version
The way things are going today 2022 if Jesus doesn't come back soon there will be no one left!!! We are in some crazy times!! I was just 9 when this song came out and wondered what it meant. Now at 62 and knowing that they started this technology back in the 40s and the fact that today you can literally get a baby from a test tube it's really a very evil scary word we're living in!!
I love futuristic songs like In The Year 2525. 1969 was a violent, turbulent year for those who lived in the era. I believe that this Zager and Evans song sums it up when it tells what will the future be like In The Year 2525 and beyond. Euphemia Riley
Kenn, everybody comments on your music enhancements which are great, but I gotta give you kudos to the great videos you accompany this great music to. All are quite enjoyable and worthy of a listen and watch.
Estuve buscando una version que sea casi exacta la que sale de: . Futurama en la temporada 6 capitulo: el difunto fry. Donde viajan hacia adelante para repetir la historia. . Es la mas cercarna a la que se escucha en ese capitulo y se mantiene construida como la original, excelente trabajo.!
Just to think... This song is quite frightening in the sense we're going in the direction of being reliant on technology, replacing our organic bodies with machines which is in the process of being developed.. Conceiving children being replaced by scientifically perfect beings instead of being unique and individuals.. The thoughts that go through the head is massive.
the artworks to each millennia fits to the t i hope that future will not happen i hope this song makes a lot of difference even in one heart then Zeger and Evans have accomplished what they sat out to do, im a big fan of them and this song especially but only who knows if things change for the better or this will come true i hope it changes for the much better.
Man, this is freaking amazing! The way you breath new life into this already ageless track is uncanny, felt like a totally new track for me, stunning! Got a request though, could you enhance The Last Two People on Earth also by Zager and Evans? That is an awesome track that I believe deserves better. Cheers!
Surely, someone has come up with some alternate lyrics to this song!!! That is, someone that is smarter, quicker, and more musical than myself. Maybe it could be called "In the year 20 F__king 25", and start at year 2025 and count down to 2030. Let me know if someone hasn't done this already.
Al año 2020, faltando 505 para la predicción. Una pandemia asola el planeta. Cambio climático, fenómenos meteorológicos, desastres por doquier. Ya se pone en duda el futuro de la humanidad. Sí es que la humanidad pasa este siglo... Lo habremos logrado. Hoy 16-07-2021
Spectacular visual visions of future. I see so much of Star Wars in the art work, Star Trek too. I wish could live in a future time to travel in space to other planets and galaxies, use laser blasters.
Hi Ken. I would like to suggest a song to you for enhancement: It's A Cryin' Shame by the late, very sweet and beautiful Gayle McCormick. This song was a favorite of mine in 1971, and I always thought it did better than it did. Imagine my surprise to find it got no higher than number 44 on Billboard's Top 100 chart. I thought it had been a Top 40 hit. Listening to the song today, I think the song needed a few more tweaks to have turned it into a Top 40 classic, maybe even Top 10. The world lost Gayle to cancer in March 2016 and those who knew her said she was one of the nicest and sweetest people you could meet. Her big hit was with Smith, of course, the stunning remake of Baby It's You. It's A Cryin' Shame veered towards bubblegum pop, but Gayle was a solid rock vocalist par excellence. It's A Cryin' Shame showed she was capable of taking any song and making it hers, but it still needed some tweaking and maybe a little toughening up.
I know the song and there are some good stereo versions of it on UA-cam and they sound pretty good. There maybe a little that could be added but not a whole lot. Where you really notice the enhancements are on the "thin" sounding classics of the 60's. Kenn
IT'S not right now i worry about, it's 2027 i worry about, i am a psychic/medium, 2027 is an 11 universal year, I'M getting feelings even, now, am not liking the feelings I'm getting...............
Love the various enhancements I've heard, though some are more noticeable than others. I'd still like to hear more in the future. If possible, I'd like to hear an enhanced version of the Bee Gees classic, "Jive Talkin'." When they performed that song in concert, the guitars were louder than what they were on record and I thought it was a shame the volume on the guitars was so down in the mix. The song rocked with guitars more prominent in the mix. Linda Ronstadt's first hit, "Different Drum" is another song I'd like to hear in an enhanced state, like more bass in the mix and a bass and drums fill during the harpsichord break in the middle. Wish I could do what you do here but my musical skills is limited to the guitar and I'm not that great of a player. But, the additions you make are fantastic. By the way, do you ever get any feedback from the artists or their record companies about the enhancements?
The only feedback I got was from a person who co-wrote a song sang by Olivia Newton John. I have had some other comments from people who know personal members of famous bands but no actual member. I doubt they watch videos on UA-cam or care to comment on any of my enhanced versions. I enjoy making these versions for the oldies fans as a hobby. Kenn
If I listen to this song carefully, I can say one thing for sure: We are ahead of schedule !
By an extremely long mile 😔
So much that it looks like we'll never even reach 3535 at all, or at the least, just a small part of the population today
Chris so so true !!
So true.
This is the voice of the future. False prediction. We survive. Do not worry kiddies. Unless you plan on remaining young forever like Peter Pan.
This song says it all because it’s beginning to happen now. I can’t stop listening to this song.
My heart beats faster when I hear this song. Truly a classic.
I will never get tired of this song.

This song always gives me the chills

LYRICS
In the year 2525, if man is still alive
If woman can survive, they may find
In the year 3535
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lie
Everything you think, do and say
Is in the pill you took today
In the year 4545
You ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes
You won't find a thing to chew
Nobody's gonna look at you
In the year 5555
Your arms hangin' limp at your sides
Your legs got nothin' to do
Some machine's doin' that for you
In the year 6565
Ain't gonna need no husband, won't need no wife
You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too
From the bottom of a long glass tube
In the year 7510
If God's a-coming, He oughta make it by then
Maybe He'll look around Himself and say
"Guess it's time for the Judgement Day"
In the year 8510
God is gonna shake His mighty head
He'll either say, "I'm pleased where man has been"
Or tear it down, and start again
In the year 9595
I'm kinda wonderin' if man is gonna be alive
He's taken everything this old earth can give
And he ain't put back nothing
Now it's been ten thousand years, man has cried a billion tears
For what, he never knew, now man's reign is through
But through eternal night, the twinkling of starlight
So very far away, maybe it's only yesterday
one of the greatest songs ever written
For whatever reason, this song always chokes me up... So much of it prophetic...
I think we passed a billion tears 50 years ago
Boy does this song bring back memories from the days gone by...
It's not the past that's lost but the future (if we keep up with killing love).
This song just getz better every tyme I listen...seen at least a dozen versions in the last couple a few months...classicx don't get old...they get better
This song has made me cry from 1st time I heard it in 1969 as a teen. Think about it.
We’re almost there
You've made this song a masterpiece. One of your best. Wow
Ken , I LOVE the OUTSTANDING Backround music you added as it kept building , Simply AWESOME , A job VERY VERY WELL DONE My Friend !
Eh?
i am sitting here with my daughter it is the year 2021 may 1st she has her dissabilities and boy she loves this song AWesome Flora.
We've taken everything this old earth can give,
And we ain't put back nothin.
WOW!!! The graphics AND the music -- fabulous!!! Cheri B.
I remember this song when I was young I'm 61 strange popped into my head today at work strange just had to listen to it
I was 11 years old when this song came out. My father loved it. It scared the hell out of me!!! One things for certain the music from the 60's was extremely prophetic!

Geniuses they were way ahead of time prophets..
.
EXACTLY! How insightful of you!
God Bless And Thank You Kenn, Incredible High Quality Stereo. Love your backround vocals and your guitar work too I picked up on .
This song is so true now ! Rick Evans wrote it in 1964 and recorded it in 1969 .
Rest in peace dad. This song reminds of you. I love you so much.
GREAT SONG!! GREAT MEMORIES!!
Wonderful orchestral additions. Another great job. I like the visuals, too!
En avance sur son temps cette chanson est un reflet de ce vers quoi on va .Dommage que l’humain reste obstiné.Il suffit de voir ,en 2021 il y’a le film Plan 75 ,vers 2001 il y a 7sisters et en 1972 il y a Soylent Green ,alors sans doute est ce quoi vers ou l’on se dirige.

Great job Ken on 2525 nice and clear mix AMAZING
Will we truly make it to that time, open your eyes please
Just Bread taking. Great rendition of the enhanced sound. A true master piece.
outstanding work on this. best quality sound of this tune I have found.
All this could end up being true God help us.
This song is spoofy, where did they come up with these lyrics!!!? We're talking 1969 when this song came out!
This is happening now with our Woke Politicians.. 1984 has come true as well!😢
Wow! You just keep making these classic tunes sound totally Spectacular. Great one hit wonder song. Great instrument build up as the song progresses and of course, Your great vocal add on's.

In the year 2025, AI has now become alive, decides that man just shouldn`t thrive, Kills them all in the blink of an eye......................and that's the end of the song.
They did make another video for the Year 2525 with upbeat music and spooky but good
@@martinholmes1493 And that AI is woke lmao
There is but only modern voices ,instrumentals and video.Even tho same words the video graphics are spectacular. Google it, I'd send link but not sure how. 2020 version
The song of the century!
Fear and ... Unknown!
The way things are going today 2022 if Jesus doesn't come back soon there will be no one left!!! We are in some crazy times!! I was just 9 when this song came out and wondered what it meant. Now at 62 and knowing that they started this technology back in the 40s and the fact that today you can literally get a baby from a test tube it's really a very evil scary word we're living in!!

Kenn, everybody comments on your music enhancements which are great, but I gotta give you kudos to the great videos you accompany this great music to. All are quite enjoyable and worthy of a listen and watch.
This was my swan song, I was obsessed with space and engineering back in the 60’s to 90’s. To bad I can’t remember how to do math and physics anymore.
You don't need remember math and physics Some machines doing for you
Kenn, this is fabulous! I continue to love what you do! Please continue!
Fantastic Job Kenn !!! ... they say the song that was #1 on your 14th Birthday defines your life .. yup
I most definitely agree with you on that question you just said there you just took the words out of my mouth year that song is 1969
I wonder if this song will get a new revival of playing on the airwaves in 505 years?
noww it shud be changed , leeps for a 100 not 1100
It should get renewed with an updated version with new disasters, because what they predicted in those years are happening now.
It sounds just like i remember back in the day.
Enhancements shine, this song really stuns now.
1969 was a warning, 2021 the predictions sadly come true..
Great job enhancing this, thanks THE MUSIC ENHANCEMENT CHANNEL.
I like this song 🌹🌹👏
Spectacular! Bravo!
Estuve buscando una version que sea casi exacta la que sale de:
.
Futurama en la temporada 6 capitulo: el difunto fry.
Donde viajan hacia adelante para repetir la historia.
.
Es la mas cercarna a la que se escucha en ese capitulo y se mantiene construida como la original, excelente trabajo.!
Thank you Thank You
Kenn. Fantastic what you do. Wish you could get a CD produced. This song is ahead of time. Many things are reality now. Keep up your good work.
Excellant Post ! Great Quality Sound !!
The real time soundtrack of Apollo 11.

Magnificent!
Man, this is freaking amazing!
The way you breath new life into this already ageless track is uncanny, felt like a totally new track for me, stunning!
Got a request though, could you enhance The Last Two People on Earth also by Zager and Evans? That is an awesome track that I believe deserves better.
Cheers!
It's so prophetic
Ken another suggestion SO YOU ARE A STAR by the Hudson Bros from 70s, and YOUR TURN TO CRY by Dave Clark 5
And he opened his mouth and taught them, saying:
A.I. will be get our lives.
Thank you Thank You
Richard Buchkinster view of New York under a geodesic dome would be good too.
Every attacking war is far past for human beings ( should be )
Surely, someone has come up with some alternate lyrics to this song!!! That is, someone that is smarter, quicker, and more musical than myself. Maybe it could be called "In the year 20 F__king 25", and start at year 2025 and count down to 2030. Let me know if someone hasn't done this already.

I hope we learn before it's too late
I think someday,these things will come true

I thought they wrote this just for the episode of Futurama. I didn't realize it was a song that was actually released.
It was the number 1 song of 1969.
60s song
I remembered the episode on Futurama. The world ran by giraffe tripped me out😆😆
What a great song.😛
Man has dominated man to his injury🤧
Grande canzone che sconfina nel lontano futuro .
Spectacular visual visions of future. I see so much of Star Wars in the art work, Star Trek too. I wish could live in a future time to travel in space to other planets and galaxies, use laser blasters.
Tower of Babel One fell & so will Babel 2....
That hit was number 1 in 69 ✌🏻❤️💯

Danke!
es ist ein Leben ...ohne Leben ...Harry
My 45 rpm single of this song was the exact one shown in the video: RCA, with a cheese colored label.
Pretty awesome. You should check out my project on this song. It's labeled "In the Year 2525 (drawn by hand)".
The architectural firm Archigram would be good too for the video.
In the year 2021, can man still survive?
Hast du das gesehen ....
I wonder in the year 1517... did they make a song about 2021?

In the Year 2525…
Why arent people standing up in outrage?!!!
