Comments:
"Good Morning Starshine" is another song from the musical, "Hair". It was sung in the original 1968 - 1972 Broadway production by the character of Sheila played by Lynn Kellogg. The one-hit wonder group, Oliver, would record it and take it to #2 in the pop charts in 1969. "Good Morning Starshine" was one of five songs from "Hair" that would get a reworking by popular artists of the time and hit the charts in 1969. Besides "Good Morning Starshine", there was the Fifth Dimension's #1 smash (for six weeks in 1969) of the "Medley: Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In the Flesh Failures", the family group the Cowsills' #3 hit of the title song, "Hair" and Three Dog Night's #3 hit of the song, "Easy To Be Hard".
