• The opening track and lead single of the Village People’s 1978 album Cruisin'. At first, “Y.M.C.A.” appears to be expressing the virtues of the titular Young Men’s Christian Association, a worldwide organization that aims to spread Christian values via the development of one’s physical health. However, it has been alternately interpreted as a gay anthem due to the Association’s reputation as a popular cruising and hookup spot for young men.
  • Victor Willis, one of the song’s co-writers and lead singer, said through his publicist that it wasn’t intended to be seen that way, but rather as an anthem for hanging out with your straight buddies at that place.
  • Regardless of the song’s origins, “Y.M.C.A.” still became one of the band’s biggest hits, topping various charts worldwide (but not the US, where it was barely kept off the top by Rod Stewart’s Do Ya' Think I’m Sexy), being one of the few singles to have sold 10 million+ copies worldwide, and becoming one of their signature songs still being played in dance clubs everywhere.
