Too bad we dont have more songwriters like that today, rarely does a song make an impact anymore a beautiful song indeed!

Sly was amazing. I think that he was just a little ahead of his time.

There must be a reason why...

this song is - I think - in my "TOP 3 FAVORITE" Sly/Family Stone songs.

I remember hearing - & loving this song when I was 2 or 3 years old.

GREAT singing; nice breezy horns..

my favorite line in the song is

"I cloud 9 when I want to..!"

I like the clip of them doing part of this song on that "Kraft Music Hour"

(or whatever it was called)

back in the day..

I agree - Sly was WAY AHEAD of his time..

I'll see you tonight..
in ALL MY DREAMS..
