Earth Wind & Fire Lyrics
Do you remember the 21st night of September?
Love was changing the minds of pretenders
While chasing the clouds away
Our hearts were ringing
In the key that our souls were singing
As we danced in the night
Remember how the stars stole the night away
Hey hey hey
Ba de ya, say do you remember?
Ba de ya, dancing in September
Ba de ya, never was a cloudy day
Ba duda, ba duda, ba duda, badu
Ba duda, badu, ba duda, badu
Ba duda, badu, ba duda
My thoughts are with you
Holding 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 we shared in September
Only blue talk and love
Remember true love we share today
Hey hey hey
Ba de ya, say do you remember?
Ba de ya, dancing in September
Ba de ya, never was a cloudy day
And we say
Ba de ya, say do you remember
Ba de ya, dancing in September
Ba de ya, golden dreams were shiny days
The bell was ringing, oh oh
Our souls were singing
Do you remember? never a cloudy day, yow
And we say
Ba de ya, say do you remember?
Ba de ya, dancing in September
Ba de ya, never was a cloudy day
And we say
Ba de ya, say do you remember?
Ba de ya, dancing in September
Ba de ya, golden dreams were shiny days
Ba de ya de ya de ya
Ba de ya de ya de ya
Ba de ya de ya de ya de ya
Ba de ya de ya de ya
Ba de ya de ya de ya
Ba de ya de ya

I hope this song played as one of the main songs in the weddings 🎉

Is there even a close #2 in the contest for the best R&B ensemble ever? These guys were the PERFECT blend of REAL musicianship, raw talent, performing chops, energy... everything! Of course the vocals are amazing. But listen to the "tightness" of the band... these guys are as "together" as humanly possible... for pop music? Unreal.

One of my all time favorites. Could listen to it all the time.

My dad’s all-time favorite band—caught them every time they came near Philadelphia, took me as a kid to several of their concerts. He passed when I was 13, back in 2000, and we played this song at his funeral. So many of my happiest memories are wrapped up in Earth, Wind & Fire, and I know my dad would be thrilled to see people still enjoying their music so much.
