Song by Earth, Wind and Fire:
“Do you remember The 21st night of September? Love was changin' the minds of pretenders While chasin' the clouds away Our hearts were ringin' In the key that our souls were singin' As we danced in the night, remember How the stars stole the night away, oh, yeah Hey, hey, hey Ba-dee-ya, say, do you remember? Ba-dee-ya, dancin' in September Ba-dee-ya, never was a cloudy day My thoughts are with you Holdin' hands with your heart to see you Only blue talk and love, remember How we knew love was here to stay…..”
