Thank you my friend SGT (Join to see) for posting the music video of Earth, Wind & Fire performing "Shining Star" live in honor of the fact that on May 24, 1975 this song was number 1 in the USA.

"Shining Star" written by Maurice White, Philip James Bailey, Lorenzo Russell Dunn
Lyrics
"Yeah, hey
When you wish upon a star
Your dreams will take you very far, yeah
But when you wish upon a dream
Life ain't always what it seems, oh yeah
What'd you see on a night so clear
In the sky so very dear

You're a shining star, no matter who you are
Shining bright to see what you could truly be
What you could truly be

Shining star come into view
Shine its watchful light on you, yeah
Gives you strength to carry on
Make your body big and strong
Born a man child of the sun
Saw my work had just begun
Yeah, found I had to stand alone
Bless it now I've got my own oh yeah

So, if you find yourself in need
Why don't you listen to these words of heed
Be a giant or grain of sand
Words of Wisdom: Yes I can

You're a shining star, no matter who you are
Shining bright to see what you can truly be
You're a shining star, no matter who you are
Shining bright to see what you can truly be
You're a shining star, no matter who you are
Shining bright to see what you can truly be

Shining star for you to see, what your life can truly be
Shining star for you to see, what your life can truly be
Shining star for you to see, what your life can truly be"

Damn, David, have you been checking with my ex-wife to see what albums she got in the divorce?

SGT (Join to see) - I really can't blame her. I told her to take whatever she wanted. She took half our CDs and all our vinyl albums, and hence so many of the ones you've been sharing. I got the 45 rpm singles. I didn't want to argue, or for her to go away mad -- I just wanted her to go away.
