My Evergreen Playlist: September.
My evergreen playlist track for today is September by one of the most innovative and commercially successful acts of all time, Earth Wind and Fire.
The group is an American band that has spanned the musical genres of R&B, soul, funk, jazz, disco, pop, rock, dance, Latin, and Afro pop.
The song which was released in September 1978, reached No. 1 on the US Billboard Hot R&B Songs chart, No. 8 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and No. 3 on the UK Singles Chart.
You will no doubt agree the band, also know as EWF is an innovative one way back from the 70s when they started making disco, funk, pop and R&B look cool.
Ba dee ya I love the feel good aspect of the music and how it ushers you into a dancing and jolly mood.
Did you see the futuristic background in the video from the 70s that looks like what is been obtained today? Talk about innovation.
Sing along to the lyrics.
[Verse 1]
Do you remember the 21st night of September?
Love was changin' the minds of pretenders
While chasin' the clouds away
Our hearts were ringin' in the key that our souls were singin'
As we danced in the night, remember
How the stars stole the night away, oh yeah
[Chorus]
Hey, hey, hey!
Ba-dee-ya, say, do you remember?
Ba-dee-ya, dancin' in September
Ba-dee-ya, never was a cloudy day
[Post-Chorus]
Ba-du-da, ba-du-da, ba-du-da, ba-du
Ba-du-da, ba-du, ba-du-da, ba-du
Ba-du-da, ba-du, ba-du-da
[Verse 2]
My thoughts are with you, holdin' hands with your heart to see you
Only blue talk and love, remember
How we knew love was here to stay
Now December, found the love that we shared in September
Only blue talk and love, remember, the true love we share today
[Chorus]
Hey, hey, hey!
Ba-dee-ya, say, do you remember?
Ba-dee-ya, dancin' in September
Ba-dee-ya, never was a cloudy day
There was a…
Ba-dee-ya (Dee-ya, dee-ya), say, do you remember?

The bell was ringin', oh, oh
Our souls were singin'
Do you remember never a cloudy day? Yow

I know the world right now is struggling, but it will make so much sense to have some feel good time.
You can let loose and dance away while staying indoors and staying alive.
