The main vocalists of the group were Debbie Allen, Valerie Landsburg, Erica Gimpel, Carlo Imperato, Gene Anthony Ray, Lee Curreri, Lori Singer and P.R. Paul. Another vocalist, Irene Cara, did not appear in the TV series but sang the "Fame" theme song and played Coco in the original motion picture. The song catapulted Irene Cara to stardom. It won an Academy Award for Best Original Song, a Golden Globe Award, and was a UK number one.
The US television series was originally produced between 1982 and 1987 and was based on the 1980 motion picture of the same name. Using a mixture of drama and music, it followed the lives of the students and faculty at the New York City High School for the Performing Arts. Although fictional, it was based heavily on the actual Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts in New York. Most interior scenes were filmed in Hollywood, California. In Seasons 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6 the show filmed several exterior scenes on location in New York City.
In 2012 a campaign was launched to get the complete Kids From Fame back catalogue released on CD https://www.facebook.com/GetTheKidsFromFameOnCd and in 2013 Cherry Pop Records http://www.cherryred.co.uk/cherrypop.asp sought to license 'Fame' albums, despite previously unsuccessful attempts.

It was so nice of the shop keeper to have all his musical instruments set up and tuned in. That's quality service.

And the Fidelity! It's so High!

I heard this song just once during the original run and nearly 4 decades later, thought about it. Not remembering the main chorus, I searched many words, like "hi manelli hi" and "by gazelli by." Low and behold, I entered "Fame" and "hi" and I found it. It's amazing that a childhood memory could even bring me to this. Something I saw only once.

That’s terrific. Nice detective work too!
@libertyprime7911
Just now, this happened to me too. It just started playing in my head.

Fantastic. I love mistaken or half remembered lyrics but modern tech can recapture sooo much 🙂
