The 5th Dimension were amazing. I really like Wedding Bell Blues and Stoned Soul Picnic, but Age of Aquarius is such an instantly recognizable song across generations :)

You just need to have grown up with parents that loved playing the soundtrack to Forrest Gump

Anyone can be old enough to remember the song if you don't limit your music consumption

(That song was released decades before I was born, BTW.)

I don't think there's any asparagus in this picture. I wish there were, it makes a great pun look forced
