Long after EW&F is gone, when they place this song 100,000 years or more in the future, it will still be killing it. People will be rocking to this regardless of how old this song gets. It is timeless.

yeah, many musics from that Era (60's-70's to early 2000's) are untemporal, peoples would probably remind them even in one centuries while many todays songs are forgotten only few years after their released.

[@matthewellenberger1905]

True, though when I was working site security downtown Portland Oregon, George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic played at Pioneer Square. At the end of his set, him, the band, and everyone in attendance wove past my building in a conga line, drums and horns playing full volume. I had to go outside to watch. Noted in the log: "Disturbance registered on cameras and electronic door monitors. There was no Disturbance. It was simply a conga line led by George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic." When the building manager saw the log, he wanted my security company to submit me for a psyche evaluation, until the local news mentioned it.

This song is very strong. In my opinion it has to do with our development as human beings. It inspires some to discover their true potentials. People nowadays don’t believe in themselves. We all have this untapped potential, some people die not knowing it. A few people we call geniuses have discovered that secret. We are all shining stars.
