an extremely forward looking song considering when it was written 1969. The song references examples of technologies and concepts that were not fully developed but were known to the public in 1969, such as robots, as well as future technology that would come into existence long before their prediction in the song, the science of In vitro fertilization and genetic selection by parents of their future children. Such a concept had been explored in a few science fiction novels but had not yet, for the most part, been mentioned in the mainstream media until "In The Year 2525" was released in 1969.
