Zager & Evans - In The Year 2525 - 2nd version (1969)

Zager and Evans was an American rock-pop duo active during the late 1960s and early 1970s, named after its two members, Denny Zager (born 1944, Wymore, Nebraska) and Rick Evans (born 1943, Lincoln, Nebraska, died 2018, Santa Fe, New Mexico). They are best known for their 1968 No. 1 hit single "In the Year 2525", which earned them one-hit wonder status.

Every time I here this song. There lyrics are off by 7000 years.
We won't be here in 9595. Lucky if we last to 3025. If already sucked this planet dry.

Classic song, always been a favorite. When it was released I was 14 and thought then of us in the far future. We will not have to worry about 2525, I'll be surprised if we can make it to 2033....

😢.Don’t think anyone will be here then, not the way things are going, and the way we abuse our beautiful planet.😢

[Steve-yold]

Who knew this would become prophecy!✌️

[stevenhulbert]

It's sad to see the kids sitting in the chairs looking bored. If they only knew what was coming, we are living this song and Zager and Evans were way ahead of their time!

[joeking]

Now would be a good time to re release this worldwide.

My mom and dad had divorced around the time of this song, I was 12, sad, confused. This song really made me think, it was ahead of its time. Great music, singers, and lyrics. Unique song. How we need God now and into the future!

[johnnyjohnson]

Some people can "glimpse" the future.
When I was young in the 70's I loved the beat and tempo.
Today at 52, I'm horrified at what is going on and what we're headed for.
Stay safe my fellow humans.

Gives me such nostalgia & I'm only 46, I spent the 90s cruising around the mountains listening to tunes & smoking weed & this was always one of my favorites to come on the radio, this and sky pilot by Eric burden

[michaelwelsch]

Das war für mich eins der geilsten Songs aller Zeiten, singe es immer wieder, danke dafür

[lasciviouseyes]

It's New Years Eve a few hours to go to 2025 and NOT one radio station has the balls to play this SUPERcool song and dedicate it as IN THE YEAR 2025. Amazing how people forget!

[derekgibbs]

Still sound Great and still a chilling warning

[arturoalfredocevallos-garc]

500 more years to go. Can't wait to see what happens on January 1, 2525.

See you guys then.
