Earth, Wind And Fire - Star Lyrics






In the sky, shines a star, spaces,
Near and far, calling out, who you are
And smiling in the night.

[Chorus:]
Star light, star bright beam across the
Sky - falling, calling can you tell me why -
Star light, star bright mighty light to see.
Shining, smiling down on you and me -

Star hides from the rain, it turns
Against the pain, fooling many in the game
While smiling in the night -

I can feel the dark, take the night,
Apart, but then, the stars come out
And lift my heart -

Believing, there's a star, for everyone
Makes it easier, to recall, that together
For the children of the world - There's
A star smiling for us all

Star, shining high, cultivating my desire
Graceful in the sky
And smiling in the night

[Chorus]

    This song has legs. When I first heard it in 1979, I thought it was a minor effort from EWF, now in 2019, at 58 years of age, it just brings the biggest smile to my face.

  8. R.... F....

    This is so groovy! Love it!

    this song only went to #47 on the R&B charts in 1980!!!

    D.... B....

    scandalous

  21. D.... C....

    No band on EARTH has the right to sound this good. We are truly not worthy......xxx

  22. s.... ....

    One of the most important funk disco tracks in the history of this genre. It smashed into the US number 1 spot directly in the middle of the coke fuelled 70s.

    I was 17 going on 18 when i bought this Album . I put my Headphones on listened til i was asleep . Next day I repeat and repeat and repeat . Learned all Bass lines all Drum Parts and Horns .

    STAN THE MAN !!!!!!!!.....

  29. M.... H....

    Ewaf rocks!

  30. A.... M....

    I saw them play "Star" live on the "I AM" tour- October 1979. The broke out the colorful umbrellas and held their own Mardi Gras!

  31. L.... H....

    Nobody did it better I remember my first concert when they came to Louisville i was blown away R.I.P. mr. Maurice White 🎵🎤 we miss you

  32. P.... G....

    Whoever gave this a thumbs down wasn't there, we had this game n 8 track, in my buddies 75 sunroof top Grand Prix, in 79, that was some song

  33. X.... ....

    omgggggggg the memories!!!!! I remember Vinnie Peruzzi used to spin this at the Rack in Boston during the big disco revival in the late 90s. Every EW&F track he put on the decks was straight fire all the way through. He also wasn't afraid to put on those lesser known hits from Donna Summer, Kool & the Gang, Parliament Funkadelic, etc.

  34. C.... M....

    My friend requested this played at his funeral a few days ago, Not only was he a huge EWF Fan but He was amazing Bass Player and the title is fitting as he was a star in his own right, I have been able to get this song out of my head since.

  35. C.... ....

    My dad bought the album back in 1979 and played it every day on his tube HIFI - "Star" was always my favorite - I found it again on apple music and dance to work every morning with the song in my ear plugs... You just fail to stand still with this song and it keeps looping in my mind for the rest of the day.

  36. E.... R....

    Phillip Bailey one of a kind voice❤️

  37. A.... Z....

    😍🎶❤🎵💜🎶💚🎵💙😘

  38. K.... B....

    Picks up where the ever-luminescent "Shining Star" leaves off!!! Great Summer '79 memories!

  39. C.... X....

    I feel somewhere down the road of life the light in my heart got lost, maybe it's this cold and dark world that's dying for a little bit of love. Even after raising a family of my own I feel lonely and have heartache. Music is magic though and in my mind I can visit ghosts and walk through castles if I just let it take me there. In my father's house there are many mansions, my feet are on the ground but my eyes are toward heaven. If you're hurting hang on, you're not alone.
    Peace.

    C.... X....

    Charlie X o too

    C.... X....

    Charlie X I too believe there is going to be a better day

  40. R.... L....

    Love this song, we're playing it in marching band at my school

    R.... L....

    Rose Long - Ask your teacher if y’all can also play EWF “In The Stone.” If you’ve never heard it, take a listen, you will love it! In the 80’s, that was a go to song for school bands. The intro is out of this world!!!

    R.... L....

    We are actually, our theme is Casey Kasem's top 40's. We're playing Let's Groove, Sing a Song, In the Stone, and Star. Along with some Michael Jackson as well.

  41. M.... E....

    Maurices sprit lives on

  42. j.... p....

    Juan Pardo

  43. �.... ....

    Listening to this song makes me always smile. Thank you Maurice and R.I.P.

  44. A.... P....

    Transcendant.

  45. s.... ....

    From a quiet gentle start I've always really liked how this song bursts into life.

  46. R.... G....

    I can feel the dark take the night apart
    And then the stars come out to lift my heart

  47. A.... R....

    None better than EWF. RIP Maurice White.

  48. R.... G....

    EWF's best track IMO

  49. S.... ....

    Now that is a cool one :D

  50. N.... F....

    This song had me in five seconds.

  51. L.... B....

    I am 14 and my father always plays this in the car! Loving it!

    L.... B....

    I have a 6 and 2 year old daughters, just ordered it on CD to play it to them in the car....

  52. D.... B....

    Greatest music in history of mankind. Maurice 's and the EWF -- Timeless!!

  53. B.... C....

    Makes me happy !!!

  54. J.... T....

    These dudes have a library of songs the did not record for production much like Prince.

    J.... T....

    With the return of so many 70's artists like Chic , ABBA, ELO, Chaka Khan and so on, would be great for them to get in some top producer to collaborate and release the unkown tracks now in an album, a new EWF would be the cherry on top of the cake.

  55. r.... m....

    summer of 79 flying from NY to LA for the summer. American Airlines had a channel on their rented head sets and Star and Can't let Go were on it. I was already an EW&F fan, but had to go pick up cassette of IAM as soon as plane landed. The best album I have ever heard to this day!

  56. K.... G....

    Rewelacja w tamtych latach Wspaniala sekcja instrumentow detych Dali CZADU

  57. M.... ....

    Pop, Jazz, Funk.......

  58. D.... k....

    A kind of ode to New Orleans jazz.

  59. J.... L....

    for Anthony..

  60. A.... D....

    WHAT A SONG!!!!!!!! STURDY, DELICATE AND BRILLIANT!

  61. W.... S....

    Wonderful.

  62. C.... N....

    Imagine leaving Happy Denmark without any CD's. Walk into a mall, and you find was Earth, Wind and Fire greatest hits. Boy was I happy. Clinton was still President, so I could either listen to him, Monica Lewinsky or the local C and W station - bless their heart. I had one month to see USA - Therefore I know their greatest hits. An still have them. Br. Claus

  63. P.... G....

    Sunroof top open, my late great friends 75 fire engine red Grand Prix, cruising the Bronx, 1979

    P.... G....

    79, was 17 blasting I AM cassette in my 77 black and gold Trans Am with t tops off ! Blaupunkt radio,clarion booster and Jenson speakers! what a time!

  64. m.... ....

    Annoying ADVERTS!!!!!!

  65. T.... E....

    Maurice White has always been my musical idol. R.I.P Maurice

  66. N.... C....

    I always liked the fact that Earth, Wind & Fire had 2 lead vocals: Maurice White and Phillips Bailey. They both had awesome voices.

    N.... C....

    Nelson Cruz What you mean *had* ....Philip still does

    N.... C....

    James Kelly - Yep, Phillip still does!

    N.... C....

    Believe it or not that was a baroque operatic technique they used called "tenor-counter tenor".

  67. b.... b....

    what a great song to play after a slow set in a party .just magic.

  68. t.... m....

    Maurice attended a music school in Chicago and learned jazz drummb style playing. This was before he formed ewf.

    t.... m....

    yes he did. he mentioned it in his autobiography.

  69. A.... U....

    No matter how old he was, Maurice's death was still too soon. His musical achievement inspires me.

    A.... U....

    The fact that he stopped touring in 1994 is heartbreaking in itself because we missed his voice for 22 years before he passed in 2016.

  70. J.... U....

    super!!!

  71. w.... f....

    Must be the funkiest trumpet jam ever

    w.... f....

    Ramlee rocked it!

    w.... f....

    Yes!!!!!

    w.... f....

    I believe that is actually a flugelhorn, which is played the same as a trumpet. Sounds like one to me. Trumpets are a lot more shrill.

  72. Y.... v....

    im 9 years old and i like it so much. very cool!

    Y.... v....

    Keep on jammin, little one you have great taste!

  73. A.... ....
