Vibe | Earth, Wind & Fire | Guiding Lights | REACTION VIDEO
The Earth, Wind & Fire vibe continues with the Jazz Flavor “Guiding Lights”. When this song came out I was floored how much this sounded like Maurice White was in the studio. This has his touch all over it. Not sure if they was trying to make this song for him but it definitely has a vibe that says we miss our leader.
"Guiding Lights" is a song by the band Earth, Wind & Fire, released as a single in 2012 by Sony Music/Legacy. The song reached No. 16 on the Billboard Smooth Jazz Songs chart and No. 30 on the Billboard Adult R&B Songs chart. "Guiding Lights" was produced by Walt B. & Neal Pogue and composed by Philip D. Bailey, Austin Jacobs, Daniel McClain with Darrin Simpson. The song came from Earth, Wind & Fire's 2013 album Now, Then & Forever.
Andy Kellman of Allmusic wrote "My Promise and Guiding Light especially rise high enough to be slotted between classics without losing listener interest." Elias Leight of Popmatters exclaimed "Guiding Lights" is a break-beat driven falsetto ballad that stretches the drama out past six minutes and includes a scream at the 4:18 mark that shouldn’t be humanly possible for any man above the age of 30." Leight also added "The muted brass in "Guiding Lights" touches on the early ‘00s neo-soul that Earth, Wind & Fire helped inspire." Emerys Baird of Blues & Soul said "Ballad time, with the sultry "Guiding Lights", all replete with possibly the highest note ever hit by a human (even higher that Janet Kay on Silly Games!). It's a towering performance with the waffliest of synth solos, which nobody seems to do anymore, EWF at their best!". Daryl Easlea of Record Collector also described the song as a "big spiritual ballad".
