          Cheryl Lynn (born Lynda Cheryl Smith; March 11, 1957) is an American singer. She is best known for her songs during the late 1970s through the mid-1980s, including the 1978 R&B/disco song "Got to Be Real". Lynn's singing career began with her church choir when she was a girl. Her professional singing career started in 1976 when she obtained a job as a backing vocalist for the national touring company of the musical drama The Wiz. Eventually, she obtained the role of Evillene, the Wicked Witch of the West, during the six-month national tour.

         Prior to her appearance in The Wiz, Lynn taped an episode of The Gong Show, a daytime entertainment show during June 1976, performing Joe Cocker's "You Are So Beautiful". Impressing her celebrity judges Jaye P. Morgan, Rex Reed and Elke Sommer, Lynn scored a perfect 30 and was later declared the winner. However, Lynn ended up appearing on the show twice, due to the fact the producers were debuting a nighttime version. According to an interview conducted and appearing in the September 1980 periodical "Black Stars" magazine, Lynn indicated that she was invited back in September 1976 to tape the all-new prime time version. The judges - Della Reese, Avery Schreiber, and Jamie Farr - gave her a collective score of 21; a previous act (a singing juggler) had also scored 21 and in the audience applause tie-break (and also because of Lynn's prior win) the juggler was deemed the winner.

        Cheryl Lynn is the first studio album by the American singer Cheryl Lynn. It was officially released on October 13, 1978, by Columbia Records and included Lynn's first single and biggest hit "Got to Be Real". 

You saved my day

Now that you love is here to stay

You saved my day

Now that you love is here to stay

 

Today was one of those days

Cause nothing was going my way

And it is even for

I find it easy to recall

 

You saved my day

Now that you love is here to stay

You saved my day

Now that you love is here to stay

 

Tell me how you did your love

And I was feeling mighty low

And just like an S.O.S.

You came to my distress.

 

You saved my day

Now that you love is here to stay

You saved my day

Now that you love is here to stay

 

Your tender kiss wiped away my tears

You sudden smile made my blues disappear

 

You saved my day

Now that you love is here to stay

You saved my day

Now that you love is here to stay

 

I just want to say

Thank you

Thank you

Thank you

Thank you

Thank you

Thank you

 

You saved my day

Now that you love is here to stay

You saved my day

Now that you love is here to stay

 

You saved my day

You saved my day

You saved my day

You saved my day

 

You came around where I was alone

Needed love and you came along

You came around where I was alone

Needed love and you came along

 

You came around where I was alone

Needed love and you came along

 

You saved my day

You saved my day

You saved my day

You saved my day.

The album reached number two on the UK Albums Chart and number five on the US Billboard 200, and has been certified multi-platinum in both countries. Diamond Life sold over 10 million copies worldwide, becoming one of the top-selling debut recordings of the era and the best-selling debut album by a British female vocalist, a record that stood for 24 years.

In heaven's name why are you walking away

Hang on to your love

In heaven's name why do you play these games

Hang on to your love

Take time if you're down on luck

It's so easy to walk out on love

Take your time if the going gets tough

It's so precious

So if you want it to get stronger

You'd better not let go

You gotta hold on longer

If you want your love to grow

Gotta stick together

Hand in glove

Hold tight, don't fight

Hang on to your love

In heaven's name why are you walking away

Hang on to your love

In heaven's name why do you play these games

Hang on to your love

Be brave when the journey is rough

It's not easy when you're in love

Don't be ashamed when the going gets tough

It's not easy don't give up

If you want it to get stronger

You'd better not let go

You gotta hold on longer

If you want your love to grow

Gotta stick together

Hand in glove

Hold tight, don't fight

Hang on to your love

Hang on to your love

In heaven's name why do you play these games

SUMMER MADNESS

KOOL & THE GANG

SONGWRITERS: KOOL & THE GANG & MICKENS, ALTON TAYLOR

COUNTRY: U. S. A.

ALBUM: LIGHT OF WORLDS

LABEL: DE-LITE

GENRE: R & B/INSTRUMENTAL

YEAR: 1974

 

      Light of Worlds is the fifth studio album, and seventh album of new material by the American R&B group Kool & the Gang. Released in 1974, it was later remastered by Polygram and was a second success for the band, reaching number 16 in the R&B Charts and number 63 in the Pop Charts. It was a landmark in the funk/jazz fusion genre of the 1970s.

         Light of Worlds is regarded as Kool & the Gang's most spiritual and sophisticated work, produced in the wake of the success of their previous album, Wild and Peaceful. While it was their seventh album of original material, the band considered Light of the Worlds their ninth LP (counting two compilations), and therefore consciously chose nine songs for the album to represent the then nine planets in the Solar System. The album contains rock-inspired funk set to jazz-informed playing with afrobeat influences and a tinge of analogue synthesizing.

       "Summer Madness" is considered [according to whom?] to be the album's highlight, incorporating smooth melodies and a synthesizer. It was later released as a single, with a follow-up titled "Winter Sadness" in Kool & the Gang's Spirit of the Boogie a year later. In 1991, the Hip-Hop duo DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince sampled elements of "Summer Madness" for their song "Summertime". A remake of "Summer Madness" was released on their 1993 album Unite titled "WKOOL/Summer".

Now that you see me whole

You know I'm not just what I want to show

And I know all of you now

I saw your worst and all I want to do is

 

Go on, and I will go

I will go on

I will go on

I will go

I will go

I will go on

I will go

I will go on

I will go down all the way with you it's better

 

Take me where you wanna go

There's nothing we can't get through

Even when you feel you're not enough

I see your eyes and all I want to do is

 

Go on untill the last breath

Be your shelter when the rains falls

Hold the light when life becomes dark

Let's fade away together in to the sun

 

This is our song

With you I'm home again

 

Oh, I will go

I will go on

I will go on

I will go

I will go on

I will go on

I will go

I will go on

I will go down all the way with you it's better

 

I wrote this one for you

So you can listen on the radio

Even when I'm away from you

And life is showing it can hurt too

I'm by your side

 

This is our song

With you I'm home again

 

Oh, I will go

I will go on

I will go on

I will go

I will go on

I will go

I will go, yeah I'll

Go on

I will go

I will go on

I will go down all the way with you it's better

With you it's better.
