Hair - Let The Sunshine [HD]

My favourite song from Hair, gives me chills everytime.

[freedomjunkie]

I cry every time I hear this. The truth of war is that the young and poor are forced to gamble away their entire future lives to satisfy the lusts of the rich and powerful who seek to command the world without a care for Humanity. The irony is that the poor, of all nations, are more alike than the rich & poor of any nation. If we could realise that, there would be no more war. This is OUR planet, and there is no reason - apart from the impulses of the rich, the greedy and the hateful - why we can't live together upon it, one family, one people. One love.

RIP Treat Williams. Powerful as all get out, thank you for your craft.

This was 50 years ago. They tried to tell us something we would not hear. Humans can be so thick skulled. We learn so many things the hard way or not at all.

[stevencasteel]

How many people think this is a song of hope when it is really a desperate plea for relief.

[Gasssolo]

This a fantastic ending for a great movie- how the tone of the whole film was carefree, and then in the end it snaps you back to reality like hitting a brick wall, with a tragic ending- it is as shocking now as it was the first time. Those people marching into the dark nothingness of the airplane is absolutely terrifying.

Rip Treat Williams.A piece of our youth gone with you today

[FarmersAreDummies]

You almost thought Berger was invincible until this SAD ending. Just powerful.

[LeoSNJ]

Tears. River of tears for this ending. But the crowd is like to saying "Now stop with your cruel and dark world, let the sun enter in our lives"

[Frx-dmwd]

This scene hits 10000 times more if you watch the complete film

One of the few musicals I love. If you don't cry at this ending, you're not human.

[AlexLefevreArt]

The most overlooked musical... an absolute masterpiece.

[OriginalJDB]

As someone who's last name is actually Berger, and my Dad served during Vietnam, this is quite the song. 👌

[funnycat]

The first time I saw this film was in1989 and tonight I saw it for the third time., .. I love it more each time!

[rogerdodger]

One thing i think that always sticks with me is when Milos Formon was asked why Berger didnt try harder to get away, after all he wasnt Claude and could have probably tried to explain it. Also, Claude is the one that dies in the play. Milos said that it was because Berger felt an incredible loyalty to Claude, even though Claude had been less than good to him at times, and that even in the face of certain danger, Berger remained loyal to Claude and refused to blow his cover.

One of the most brilliant film sequences related to the Vietnam experience, no matter what you think of the song or the musical. I first saw this when I was maybe 6, too young to understand WTH was going on plotwise, and the sight of rows of young men being consumed by the gaping maw of that plane gave me nightmares. RIP Milos Foreman.

We starve, look at one another, short of breath
Walking proudly in our winter coats
Wearing smells from laboratories
Facing a dying nation of moving paper fantasy
Listening for the new told lies
With supreme visions of lonely tunes
Somewhere, inside something there is a rush of
Greatness, who knows what stands in front of
Our lives, I fashion my future on films in space
Silence tells me secretly
Everything
Everything
Manchester, England, England
Manchester, England, England
Across the Atlantic Sea
And I'm a genius, genius
I believe in God
And I believe that God believes in Claude
That's me, that's me, that's me
We starve, look at one another, short of breath
Walking proudly in our winter coats
Wearing smells from laboratories
Facing a dying nation of moving paper fantasy
Listening for the new told lies
With supreme visions of lonely tunes
Singing our space songs on a spider web sitar
Life is around you and in you
Answer for Timothy Leary, dearie
Let the sunshine, let the sunshine in
The sunshine in
Let the sunshine, let the sunshine in
The sunshine in
Let the sunshine, let the sunshine in
The sunshine in
Let the sunshine, let the sunshine in
The sunshine in
Let the sunshine, let the sunshine in
The sunshine in
Let the sunshine, let the sunshine in
The sunshine in
Let the sunshine, let the sunshine in
The sunshine in
Let the sunshine, let the sunshine in
The sunshine in
Let the sunshine, let the sunshine in
The sunshine in

I finally saw the full movie for the first time over the weekend and this video makes so much more sense now

[Metrowhite]

Wow, I find their voices very powerful

[stjernestjerne]

R.I.P Milos Forman - my countryman, great film director :(

[sissi]

Agree. Makes me cry every time. I just found out who sang the first part, from 0.52 to 1.22 min, it was John DeRobertis, I was so surprised, I thought he must have been black to sing like that. But no, his background is Italian. He is the one singer in this recording, who just blows me away. The rest are also amazing, but he ripped me apart, touched me to the core, and pierced my heart.
