YMCA (song)

"
YMCA" is the title of a song by
The Village People. The song's lyrics hides its real message about the rampant
homosexual activities that take place at many
YMCA branches (or did in the
1970s when the song was written). Most listeners didn't realize the song had a hidden message and instead thought it was simply a musical celebration of the organization.
In 1999, the band rereleased the single and the proceeds were donated to the organization.
"YMCA" is also the name of a group dance invented to fit the song.
