Watch the video:


 
Village People is a concept disco group formed in the United States in 1977, well known for their on-stage costumes depicting American cultural stereotypes, as well as their catchy tunes and suggestive lyrics.
Original members were: Victor Willis (the police officer character), Felipe Rose (the Indian), Randy Jones (the cowboy), Glenn Hughes (the biker), David Hodo (the construction worker) and Alex Briley (the G.I.). For the release of "In the Navy", Willis and Briley appeared as an admiral and a sailor, respectively. Originally created to target disco's gay audience by featuring popular gay fantasy personas,[1] the band's popularity quickly brought them into mainstream.
Village People scored a number of disco and dance hits, including their trademark "Macho Man", "Go West", the classic club medley of "San Francisco (You've Got Me) / In Hollywood (Everybody is a Star)", "In the Navy", "Can't Stop the Music", and their biggest hit, "Y.M.C.A.".
In September 2008, the group received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.[2] They have sold upwards of 100 million records world-wide.[3]

Cultural references
Due to their easily recognizable characters, the group have frequently been imitated or parodied in films, television series, video games and music. Numerous covers and homages of their songs have been recorded. The stereotypical masculine characters, particularly the leather-clad biker character with a horseshoe moustache, have also become a widespread pop culture icons associated with male gay culture and YMCA has become something of an anthem of the LGBT community.
The song "In the Navy" was featured in an episode of The Muppet Show.
In 1995, a parody of the Village People was seen on the CGI show ReBoot with the group the Small Town Binomes singing "BSnP", a parody of "Y.M.C.A." They were seen in the ReBoot episode "Talent Night" and each individual was modeled after a singer from the Village People using the shows common Binome characters. Their song "BSnP" was a jab at ABC network's Broadcast Standards and Practices organization, which frequently edited content from the show which they deemed not suitable for its younger viewers (lyrics included "Oh, it's fun to play in a non-violent way").
In the episode of 3rd Rock from the Sun titled "Frankie Goes to Rutherford", the character Dick begins to frequent a gay bar which he thinks is a bar for undercover aliens. At the end all of the alien characters don different costumes for different reasons (Dick as a construction worker, Tom as a sailor, Harry as an Indian and Sally as a leather clad biker). They are joined on the porch roof by Don in his police uniform as Village People songs play.
In the film The Producers, the number "Keep It Gay" ends with a dance routine that features The Village People, or close look-alikes. Matthew Broderick's character Leo refers to them in the next scene.
In a 2010 episode of The Cleveland Show called "Buried Pleasure", police officers are riding jet skis along with other police officers trying to bust Holt, to the beat of YMCA. Later in the episode when a police officer is tackled, the Village People cop jumps on top and says, "Dog Pile".
In 2010 the crew of the Space Shuttle Atlantis dedicated "Macho Man" to Garrett Reisman.


Y.M.C.A.
Young man, there's no need to feel down.
I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground.
I said, young man, 'cause you're in a new town
there's no need to be unhappy.
Young man, there's a place you can go.
I said, young man, when you're short on your dough.
You can stay there, and I'm sure you will find
Many ways to have a good time.
It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a.
It's fun to stay at the y-m-c-a.
They have everything for you men to enjoy,
You can hang out with all the boys ...

I said, young man, what do you want to be?
