The Village People, the group behind iconic hit YMCA, think their song will help heal divides in the USA after a backlash about their decision to perform it at Donald Trump's inauguration

The chart-topping group once dunked on Trump for using its track at his rallies. Four years later, the band is giving him a live show at his second inauguration.

"Y.M.C.A." is known to be a favorite of Donald Trump's, and its singer plans to be on hand for the president-elect's swearing in.

The group has seen a resurgence in the popularity of their hit song "Y.M.C.A." recently, after Trump used the music to dance to at his campaign rallies last year. Trump has been playing the song since 2020.

The band once rejected Trump. Now they’ve embraced the healing power (and “financial benefits”) of his passion for “Y.M.C.A.”
