Favorite song by EARTH, WIND & FIRE

Poll question: Favorite song by EARTH, WIND & FIRE

I'd probably go with either Earth Wind & Fire or Biyo from Spirit, or the live version of either Devotion or Africano/Power from Gratitude. Of these, however, it's gotta be September.

PS Had to kill Can't Hide Love to have space for an Other vote; pisser.

1. Reasons. Can't Hide Love. Imagine My Heart with You.

The one about mysticism and world religion.

Hey, you left off the best ones!

[Bossy Monkey]

4. That would be All About Love

Didja read the post? My favorites are ones nobody's heard of too, but what's the point of doing a poll with 10 choices nobody remembers? I love 'em all, chose the nine by looking up a greatest hits record on Amazon.

2. I like "In the Stone," but of these, I picked "Fantasy"

Our voices will ring together until the twelfth of never,
We all, will live forever, as one.

[Bozita]

3. Reasons -- the long version

[NightTrain]

5. Two more great ones by EWF....

"Let's Groove" (1981) and "Fall In Love With Me" (1983).

And thanks for this poll! For my tastes, Earth, Wind & Fire was one of the musical highlights of the '70s.

17. i like your choice of

Let's Groove.

6. Great group

Voted for "That's the Way Of the World" but it was a hard choice.

Here's a forgotten gem from EWF: "System Of Survival"

7. I love them all!

Now I may have to go download them now that you mention it ..

8. I love them all!

And there are much more great songs by them. Earth, Wind & Fire is one of the greatest bands of all times. Beautiful, danceable and innovative. They influenced much of today's underground house music.

9. Now see what you made me do!

I went to Amazon to order this CD and ended up buying every old CD in sight!

I just ordered 2 Greatest Hits CDs for EW&F, Commodores, Hall & Oates, KC & The Sunshine Band, Doobie Brothers, Kool & The Gang, Fleetwood Mac, and The Guess Who.

I guess I just treated myself to Christmas presents for myself. :D

13. Tell Amazon to send me the commission check!

:) Glad you didn't download; the RIAA might have taken your house.

[Booberdawg]

16. Okay, I will. And thanks.

I needed that little pick me up. :)

10. Best band ever, IMHO.

Ya gotta see 'em live--a feast for the ears and the eyes.

[letthewindblow]

19. Never seen them live

but I've heard of it being a feast...
They were in Austria this summer, but I missed it:-(
I didn't even believe they were the real Earth, Wind & Fire.

11. "Shining Star" all the way!

A groundbreaking single. Sleek, stylish funk with that irresistible guitar intro, uptown horns and the essence of Black harmony singing at the outro.

EWF got in, got it said and got out in three minutes. If they ever did a substandard tune, I must've missed it, but "Star" was the one that brung 'em. It was a rare joy to "have" to play that song on the radio!!!

:bounce:

12. I'm torn between September and Serpentine Fire

but I gotta go with Serpentine Fire.

[imax2268]

14. Fantasy...

The harmonies are just incredible...and the music is pure "funk" baby...!!!

[Red_Storm]

15. Let's Groove !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Bossy Monkey]

18. Hey, it's Saturday night! Somebody's gotta vote for "Saturday Nite"

Too late for me; I went with "September" when I made the poll! :)

[chimpymustgo]

20. I saw a movie not long ago (on cable) , I think it was called "September".

The whole soundtrack was EWF. Story of black female screenwriter in LA and black studio exec. It was pretty good. And the music was fantastic.

21. Shining Star

and EWF's version of the the Beatles "Got to Get You Into My Life" are two of my all time favorite songs.
