For today's select of Record Pool my 'Song for The Day' We bumping this song at the moment in the house on a sunny Sunday afternoon here in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Wanted to channel the great vibes and the power of music with the classic gem "We Are Family" by the amazing Sister Sledge despite the track was initially declined to be released in the Album that year (Can you believe that #$%^..) The song ended up being released as a single in 1979. Soon the song was released it was number one on the charts and became very popular.
