Sing a Song***[3:23](M.White, A.McKay): First single release from Gratitude and the first of several hits using a dance-friendly
4/4 drum beat. Full brass and a nasty rhythm guitar sets the tone. Maurice White and Philip Bailey both alternate lead vocals.
The falsetto harmony is as smooth as ever. "Sing a Song" is representative of the best of where EW&F came from,
displaying southern soul, Chicago funk, jazz undertones and to a smaller extent futuristic ingenuity.
