"Star Love" is a song by John Footman & Judy Weider. Lynda Cheryl Smith known better by her professional name Cheryl Lynn, is a female African-American disco, R&B; and soul singer known best for her 1978 disco song, "Got to Be Real". Lynn's singing career began when she was a young girl with her church choir. However, her professional singing career started during 1976 when she obtained a job as a backing vocalist for the national touring company of the musical drama The Wiz. Eventually she would obtain the role of Evillene, the Wicked Witch of the West, during the six month national tour. Prior to her appearance on The Wiz, Cheryl taped an episode of the Gong Show during the early part of 1976. She scored a perfect 30 singing Joe Cocker's "You Are So Beautiful", a previous act (a singing juggler) had also scored 30 and in the audience applause tie-break the juggler was deemed the winner. After the episode was broadcast, during the autumn of 1976, record industry executives were calling to contract her. After her performance on The Gong Show, Ahmed Ertegun of Atlantic Records company couldn't come to an initial meeting with Lynn, with the result that she was contracted with Columbia Records company. Lynn released her first and best-known song, "Got to Be Real," which was composed by keyboardist David Paich (of the band Toto), David Foster and Lynn. The song scored #12 on the Billboard Hot 100 record chart and #1 on the Rhythm & Blues chart. The success of the single album prompted a full scale debut album. Named Cheryl Lynn, it was produced by Paich. The album sold more than a million copies and scored #5 on Billboard magazine's R&B; albums chart and #23 on Billboard's top 200 album charts. The next single album, "Star Love"', also became a success. Come with me tonight All across the universe, we will sail for the skies Meet behind Mars We will hold each other as we sail for the stars On a cosmic bling We will kiss in Saturn's ring Make the Milky Way blush to see the sight Making star love in the night I-I'm makin' love Star love in the night I-I-I-I'm makin' love Star love in the night Come with me tonight All across the universe, we will sail for the skies Meet behind Mars We will hold each other as we sail for the stars On a cosmic bling We will kiss in Saturn's ring Make the Milky Way blush to see the sight I'm making star love in the night I'm makin' love Star love in the night I-I-I-I'm makin' love, love now Star love in the night, oh Why don't you take me in your arms and rocket me, yeah Take me in your arms and rocket me, yeah Take me in your arms and rocket me, yeah Take me in your arms and rocket me, yeah Take me in your arms and rocket me, yeah Take me in your arms and rocket me, yeah Take me in your arms and rocket me, baby Take me in your arms and rocket me Come with me All across the universe, we will sail for the skies Meet behind Mars We will hold each other as we sail for the stars On a cosmic bling We will kiss in Saturn's ring Make the Milky Way blush to see the sight I'm making star love in the night I'm makin', baby Star love in the night I-I-I-I'm makin' love, love now Star love in the night, oh Why don't you take me in your arms and rocket me Why don't you take me in your arms and rocket me Why don't you take me in your arms and rocket me Why don't you take me in your arms and rocket me Why don't you take me in your arms and rocket me Take me in your arms and rocket me Why don't you take me in your arms and rocket me Why don't you take me in your arms and rocket me Whoa, ho, ho, I said I'm makin' love now Star love in the night Whoa, ho, ho, I'm makin' love, love now Star love in the night Why don't you Why don't you Why don't you, oh, yeah Why don't you, you, you, you, you, you, you You You You, you, you, you, you, you Soo Soo 'Cause I'm makin' love now Said I'm makin' love now Oh, yeah I'm makin' love now I'm makin' love now I'm makin' love now I'm makin' love now Star love in the night I'm making star love in the night I'm making star love in the night I'm making star love in the night Why don't you Why don't you

"Street Player" is a song by Danny Seraphine & David Wolinski from the eleventh album of the group Chicago. Chicago is an American rock band formed in 1967 in Chicago, Illinois. The self-described "rock and roll band with horns" began as a politically charged, sometimes experimental, rock band and later moved to a predominantly softer sound, generating several hit ballads. The group had a steady stream of hits throughout the 1970s and 1980s. Second only to The Beach Boys in Billboard singles and albums chart success among American bands, Chicago is one of the longest-running and most successful rock groups in history. According to Billboard, Chicago was the leading US singles charting group during the 1970s. They have sold over 38 million units in the US, with 22 gold, 18 platinum, and 8 multi-platinum albums. Over the course of their career they have had five number-one albums and 21 top-ten singles. Never forget those aimless years Street sounds swirling through my mind Trouble was often in the air So we fought to forget our despair 'Cause I'm a street player And I'll play you a song 'Cause you know, my heart and soul Will carry, carry on Carry on, carry on, carry on City life's the only way Street corners, billiard halls was our home away Lessons learned still help me today I'm a street player Well I've seen it all Hit men, thieves and many a brawl But as you see, I still stand tall It was such a small space in time Never knew that I would find A musical path for all to see Anxiety thru ecstasy I'm a street player I'm a street player I'm a street player Ooh I'm a street player I'm a street player And I've seen it all Hit men, thieves and many a brawl But as you see, I still stand tall It was such a small space in time I never knew that I would find A musical path for all to see Anxiety into ecstasy Ooh I'm a street player I'm a street player I'm a street player Ooh I'm a street player

Johnny Mathis - I'll Be Home For Christmas (Columbia Records 1958)

"I'll Be Home for Christmas" is a Christmas song, written by Kim Gannon, Walter Kent and Buck Ram. It was first copyrighted on August 24, 1943, by Kent (music) and James "Kim" Gannon (lyrics). The two revised and re-copyrighted their song on September 27, 1943, and it was this version that was made famous by Crosby. The label on Crosby's recording credits "I'll Be Home for Christmas" to Kent, Gannon, and Ram. Later recordings usually credit only Kent and Gannon. The discrepancy arose from the fact that on December 21, 1942 Buck Ram copyrighted a song titled "I'll Be Home for Christmas (Tho' Just in Memory)"—that song bore little or no resemblance, other than its title, to the Crosby recording. According to Ram, who was primarily a lyricist, he had written the lyrics as a 16-year-old, homesick college student. Prior to his publishers planned release, he had discussed the song with two acquaintances in a bar. He left a copy with them, but never spoke to them about it again. Both he and his publisher were shocked when the song was released by a competing publishing house. Per news articles of the day, Ram's publisher, who had been holding the song back a year because they were coming out with "White Christmas," sued Gannon and Kent's publisher and prevailed in court. On October 4, 1943, Crosby recorded "I'll Be Home for Christmas" with the John Scott Trotter Orchestra for Decca Records. Within about a month of Kent and Gannon's copyright the song hit the music charts and remained there for eleven weeks, peaking at number three. The following year, the song reached number nineteen on the charts. It touched a tender place in the hearts of Americans, both soldiers and civilians, who were then in the depths of World War II, and it earned Crosby his fifth gold record. "I'll Be Home for Christmas" became the most requested song at Christmas U.S.O. shows in both Europe and the Pacific and Yank, the GI magazine, said Crosby accomplished more for military morale than anyone else of that era. Merry Christmas is the seventh album and first Christmas album by Johnny Mathis. Released in 1958 by Columbia Records (CL 1195/CS 8021), it was also the sixth original studio album by Mathis. The album ranks highly among the many holiday albums released throughout the years due to its skillful blend of traditional Christmas carols ("Silent Night, Holy Night", "O Holy Night" and "The First Noel") with popular Christmas songs ("The Christmas Song", "White Christmas" and "Silver Bells"). As with a number of Mathis's previous albums, Percy Faith provided the album's musical direction. In the first flush of his success, Mathis offered a safe popular music alternative to rock 'n' roll rebelliousness of Elvis Presley, also in the first flush of his success and born in the same year as Mathis. On this album, Mathis tries his hand at a Christmas song associated with Presley, "Blue Christmas". I'm dreaming tonight of a place I love Even more than I usually do And although I know it's a long road back I promise you I'll be home for Christmas You can count on me Please have snow and mistletoe And presents on the tree Christmas Eve will find me Where the love light gleams I'll be home for Christmas If only in my dreams Please have snow and mistletoe And presents on the tree Christmas Eve will find me Where the love light gleams I'll be home for Christmas If only in my dreams If only in my dreams

"This Bitter Earth" is a 1960 song made famous by rhythm and blues singer Dinah Washington and written and produced by Clyde Otis. Aretha's rendition as well as many other can be found on 'Unforgettable: A Tribute to Dinah Washington' which is a studio tribute album dedicated to the recently deceased singer Dinah Washington whom passed away in December 14, 1963. This album was recorded in less than two months after Dinah's death on February 7th to 10th, 1964. Aretha would later recant, "I first heard Dinah when I was just a kid," she said, "back around the time she made 'Fat Daddy.' I never got to know her personally in those days, though she and my father were good friends. "The idea of recording a tribute to her grew out of the way I've always felt about her. I didn't try to do the songs the same way she did them, necessarily - just the way they felt best, whether they happened to be similar or different." The sessions were recorded in New York. A few tunes were cut with strings in order to bring out the essential ballad character of the songs (with the help of Bob Mersey's arranging); most of the tracks, though, were made with the assistance of a small and sympathetic accompanying group for which Mersey supplied minimal written guidance. This bitter earth What fruit it bares What good is love That no one wants to share And if my lifem my life is like the dust That haunts the glow of a rose Tell me what good am I Heaven, heave, heave, heaven only knows Ooh this, this bitter earth Well I found it can be, be, be so cold Today you're young And before you know it Too soon you've grown old But while a voice within me cries Someone, someone may answer my call And this bitter earth This bitter, bitter earth May not, may not be so bitter after all While a voice, while this voice Within me cries Someone, someone may answer my call And this, this bitter earth This real cold earth Mmm... may not be so bitter after all Mmm...

"Keep on Dancin'" is a 1979 single by Gary's Gang, a disco group, from Queens, New York. Their debut release of "Keep on Dancin'" was their most successful. The single peaked at #15 on the soul singles chart and #41 on the pop singles chart. On the disco chart, along with the tracks, "Do It at the Disco" and "Let's Lovedance Tonight", "Keep on Dancin'" hit number one on the disco chart for one week. In 1999, the track, "Let's Lovedance Tonight" was sampled for Soulsearcher, number twenty dance hit, "Can't Get Enough". Gary's Gang was an American R&B;/pop rock group best known for their U.S. Top 40 hit "Keep on Dancin'," reaching #41 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1978. The song also climbed to #8 in the UK Singles Chart, #14 on the Hot Soul Singles chart in 1978 and also made #1 on the Hot Dance Club Play chart, as did two of the group's other songs: "Do It At the Disco" and "Let's Lovedance Tonight". The latter was later used as the sampling background track to Soulsearcher's 1999 #20 Club Play hit, "Can't Get Enough". In the 1980s Gary's Gang enjoyed further U.S. and European success with the 1982 single "Knock Me Out" (#45 UK) and the 1983 hit "Makin' Music", which reached #8 on the Hot Dance Club Play chart. Brian Chin of Billboard described "Knock Me Out" to be "midtempoed and very pop, it shares much of the soft-edged production styling and doowoppish vocals of the group's earlier work." Gary's Gang was the brainchild of Joseph Tucci and Gary Turnier who put the group together when they sold "Keep on Dancin" to Sam Records in Long Island City, states Gary Turnier (Gary's Gang). The song was written, produced and recorded in Tucci's Richmond Hill garage. All vocals were sung by Tucci, who also played all the instruments (except for the drums which were played by Gary Turnier). After Gary Turnier shopped the song to all major labels for several weeks, Sam Records picked up the record for release. Sam Weiss sold the record to Columbia Records a few months later. The touring group, based in Queens, New York, consisted of Gary Turnier, Eric Matthew aka Joseph Tucci, Al Lauricella, Rino Minetti, Bill Catalano, Bob Forman and Jay Leon. The song "Keep on Dancin'" was featured on "54, Volume I", the official album from the 1998 Miramax film 54. Mr. Oizo's song "Patrick122" features a re-working of Gary's Gang's song "Do It At The Disco".

"I Love Lucy" is the title song to the television sitcom. The music was written as an instrumental with lyrics written by Harold Adamson, who was nominated five times for an Oscar. The lyrics to "I Love Lucy" were sung by Desi Arnaz in the episode "Lucy's Last Birthday". I Love Lucy is a landmark American television sitcom starring Lucille Ball, Desi Arnaz, Vivian Vance, and William Frawley. The black-and-white series originally ran from October 15, 1951, to May 6, 1957, on CBS. After the series ended in 1957, however, a modified version continued for three more seasons with 13 one-hour specials, running from 1957 to 1960, known first as The Lucille Ball-Desi Arnaz Show and later in reruns as The Lucy--Desi Comedy Hour. I Love Lucy was the most watched show in the United States in four of its six seasons, and was the first to end its run at the top of the Nielsen ratings (an accomplishment later matched by The Andy Griffith Show and Seinfeld). I Love Lucy is still syndicated in dozens of languages across the world. A colorized version of its Christmas episode attracted more than 8 million viewers when CBS aired it in prime time in 2013 -- 62 years after the show premiered. The show was the first scripted television program to be shot on 35 mm film in front of a studio audience, and won five Emmy Awards and received numerous nominations. Another award that the show won was the coveted George Foster Peabody Award for "recognition of distinguished achievement in television." In 2002, it ranked second on TV Guide's list of television's greatest shows, behind Seinfeld and ahead of The Honeymooners. In 2007, it was listed as one of Time magazine's "100 Best TV Shows of All-TIME." I Love Lucy remains popular, with an American audience of 40 million each year. (Lucy, Iove Lucy) I love Lucy and she loves me. We're as happy as two can be. We quarrel but then. How we love making up again. Lucy kisses like now one can. She's my misses and I'm her man.

"La Vie en rose" was the signature song of French singer Édith Piaf, written in 1945, popularized in 1946, and released as a single in 1947. The song's title can be translated as "Life in Rosy Hues" or "Life Through Rose-Colored Glasses"; its literal meaning is "Life in Pink". the melody was composed by Marguerite Monnot and Louis Guglielmi, known as Louiguy. Originally, the song was registered as being written by Louiguy only, since at the time Piaf did not have necessary qualifications to be able to copyright her work with SACEM. Words "Quand il me tient dans ses bras..." ("When he takes me in his arms...") came to her mind one evening in 1944, when she was standing in front of an American man. That gave the base for the rest of lyrics. Piaf offered the song to Marianne Michel, who slightly modified the lyrics, changing "les choses" ("things") for "la vie" ("life"). English lyrics for the song were later written by Mack David. Josephine Baker (June 3, 1906 -- April 12, 1975) was an American-born French dancer, singer, and actress. Born Freda Josephine McDonald in St. Louis, Missouri, she became a citizen of France in 1937. Fluent in both English and French, Baker became an international musical and political icon. She was given such nicknames as the "Bronze Venus", the "Black Pearl", and the "Créole Goddess". Baker was the first African-American female to star in a major motion picture, Zouzou (1934), to integrate an American concert hall, and to become a world-famous entertainer. She is also noted for her contributions to the Civil Rights Movement in the United States (she was offered the unofficial leadership of the movement by Coretta Scott King in 1968 following Martin Luther King, Jr.'s assassination, but turned it down), for assisting the French Resistance during World War II, and for receiving the French military honor, the Croix de guerre. Château des Milandes, a castle near Sarlat in the Dordogne, was Josephine Baker's home where she raised her 12 children. It is open to the public and displays her stage outfits including her banana skirt (of which there are apparently several). It also displays many family photographs and documents as well as her Legion of Honour medal. Most rooms are open for the public to walk through including bedrooms with little cots in where her children slept, a huge kitchen and a dining room where she often entertained large groups. The bathrooms are made in art deco style but most rooms retained the French chateau style. Des yeux qui font baisser les miens Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche Voilà le portrait sans retouche De l'homme auquel j'appartiens {Refrain:} Quand il me prend dans ses bras, Il me parle tout bas Je vois la vie en rose, Il me dit des mots d'amour Des mots de tous les jours, Et ça m'fait quelque chose Il est entré dans mon cur, Une part de bonheur Dont je connais la cause, C'est lui pour moi, Moi pour lui dans la vie Il me l'a dit, l'a juré Pour la vie Et dès que je l'aperçois Alors je sens en moi Mon cur qui bat Des nuits d'amour à plus finir Un grand bonheur qui prend sa place Des ennuis, des chagrins s'effacent Heureux, heureux à en mourir {au Refrain} {Nota: variante pour le dernier couplet:} Des nuits d'amour à en mourir Un grand bonheur qui prend sa place Les ennuis, les chagrins s'effacent Heureux, heureux pour mon plaisir

"Got to Be Real" is a 1978 disco song by Cheryl Lynn from her self-titled album.

Along with the tracks, "Star Love" and "You Saved My Day", "Got to Be Real" peaked at number eleven on the disco chart. For the recording, David Paich played keyboards, James Gadson played drums and Ray Parker Jr. was the session guitarist. The song peaked at number twelve on the Billboard Hot 100 pop singles chart and number one on the R&B; chart in early-1979. On September 19, 2005, "Got to Be Real" was inducted into the Dance Music Hall of Fame. Lynda Cheryl Smith known better by her professional name Cheryl Lynn, is a female African-American disco, R&B; and soul singer known best for her 1978 disco song, "Got to Be Real". Prior to her appearance on The Wiz, Cheryl taped an episode of the Gong Show during the early part of 1976. She scored a perfect 30 singing Joe Cocker's "You Are So Beautiful", a previous act (a singing juggler) had also scored 30 and in the audience applause tie-break the juggler was deemed the winner. After the episode was broadcast, during the autumn of 1976, record industry executives were calling to contract her. After her performance on The Gong Show, Ahmed Ertegun of Atlantic Records company couldn't come to an initial meeting with Lynn, with the result that she was contracted with Columbia Records company. Lynn released her first and best-known song, "Got to Be Real," which was composed by keyboardist David Paich (of the band Toto), David Foster and Lynn. The song scored #12 on the Billboard Hot 100 record chart and #1 on the Rhythm & Blues chart. The success of the single album prompted a full scale debut album. Named Cheryl Lynn, it was produced by Paich. The album sold more than a million copies and scored #5 on Billboard magazine's R&B; albums chart and #23 on Billboard's top 200 album charts. The next single album, "Star Love"', also became a success. During this time, members of the rock music group Toto were producing their debut album. During the production Lynn was asked to provided the female backing vocal for the single album, "Georgy Porgy,". The single scored #48 on Billboard's popular music charts. Although Toto would go on to chart more than a dozen popular music successes throughout the years, it was Lynn's vocal for "Georgy Porgy" that aided the group in charting their only R&B; (#18) and Dance (#80) on the Billboard charts. During 1981, Ray Parker, Jr. produced "Shake It Up Tonight", a major dance & R&B; success from Lynn's third album, In the Night. The next year, Luther Vandross was asked to produced Lynn's fourth album, Instant Love. The 2nd single from the album, "If This World Were Mine" - a 1982 duet with Luther Vandross that cover-versioned a Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell song, has become a classic. For her fifth album, Preppie, Lynn produced most of the tracks with the exception of the single "Encore" (#1 R&B; ) - which was written and produced by the Minneapolis funk music duo, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis. It became Lynn's second #1 single . During 1989, Lynn released the top 10 single, "Every Time I Try To Say Goodbye", from her eighth album, Whatever It Takes. Cheryl Lynn's hit "Gots to be real" is also the official song of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Incorporated.

(Columbia Records) Why do i just wither and forget all resistance When you and your magic pass by My heart's in a dither dear When you're at a distance But when you are near, oh my... It's not the pale moon that excites me, That thrills and delights me, Oh no, it's just the nearness of you It isn't your sweet conversation That brings this sensation, Oh no, it's just the nearness of you When you're in my arms And I feel (you) so close to me, All my wildest dreams come true I need no soft light to enchant me If you'll only grant me the right To hold you ever so tight And to feel in the night The nearness of you
