Earth, Wind & Fire - Boogie Wonderland (Official Video)

I have not posted an Earth Wind & FIre song in some time, and am rectifying that now by bringing them to you now with their performance of "Boogie Wonderland"!!!

Background Bio:

Earth, Wind & Fire (EW&F or EWF) is an American band that has spanned the musical genres of R&B, soul, funk, jazz, disco, pop, dance, Latin, and Afro pop. They have been described as one of the most innovative and commercially successful acts of all time. Rolling Stone called them "innovative, precise yet sensual, calculated yet galvanizing" and declared that the band "changed the sound of black pop". VH1 has also described EWF as "one of the greatest bands" ever.

The band was founded in Chicago by Maurice White in 1969, having grown out of a previous band known as the Salty Peppers. As well other prominent members of EWF have included Philip Bailey, Verdine White, Ralph Johnson, Larry Dunn, Al McKay, Roland Bautista, Robert Brookins, Sonny Emory, Fred Ravel, Ronnie Laws, Sheldon Reynolds and Andrew Woolfolk. The band is known for its kalimba sound, dynamic horn section, energetic and elaborate stage shows, and the contrast between Philip Bailey's falsetto vocals and Maurice White's baritone."

LYRICS:

Earth, Wind & Fire - "Boogie Wonderland"

Dance, boogie wonderland
Ha, ha, dance
Boogie wonderland
Midnight creeps so slowly into hearts of men who need more than they get
Daylight deals a bad hand to a woman who has laid too many bets
The mirror stares you in the face and says
"Baby, uh, uh, it don't work"
You say your prayers though you don't care, you dance and shake the hurt

Dance, boogie wonderland
Ha, ha, dance
Boogie wonderland (yeah)
Sounds fly through the night
I chase my vinyl dreams to Boogie Wonderland
I find romance when I start to dance in Boogie Wonderland (dance, ouh ouh ouh dance)
I find romance when I start to dance in Boogie Wonderland (dance, ouh ouh ouh dance)
All the love in the world can't be gone
All the need to be loved can't be wrong
All the records (ooh ah) are playing and my heart keeps saying
"Boogie wonderland, wonderland" (ah wonder)

Dance, boogie wonderland
Ha, ha, dance (dance, ouh ouh ouh dance)
Boogie wonderland (dance, ouh ouh ouh dance)
Ha, ha
I find romance when I start to dance in boogie wonderland
I find romance when I start to dance in boogie wonderland

Dance, (ouh ouh ouh dance) boogie wonderland (ouh ouh ouh dance)
Ha, ha, dance (dance, ouh ouh ouh dance)
Boogie wonderland (dance, ouh ouh ouh dance)
Ha, ha

Ha, ha, ha
Ha, ha, ha

Ha, ha, ha
Ha, ha, ha
Ha, ha, ha

Hmm, hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm, hmm

All the love in the world can't be gone (love in the world can't be gone)
All the need to be loved can't be wrong (need to be loved can't be wrong)
All the records (ooh ah) are playing and my heart keeps saying (oh wow, oh wow)
"Boogie wonderland, wonderland" (wonderland)

Dance, boogie wonderland
Ha, ha, dance (dance, ouh ouh ouh dance)
Boogie wonderland (dance, ouh ouh ouh dance)
