All About the Music

This week we do our final feature on the O'Jays - a vocal group that has turned out some of the sweetest songs in pop and R&B for a number of decades.
This week's song is "Sunshine" released in 1972 and peaked at number 3 on the Billboard Hot Soul  singles chart and number 18 on the Billboard Hot 100
Sunshine

You're the sweetest thing I know
You dim the rainbow's glow
There's no power on this earth 
​to separate us, baby

'Cause you are my sunshine
And you are, you are mine , all mine, yeah
( You are mine, all mine)


When it rains on my parade
You were there to lighten the way
You're rare as a rose in winter
You're more, more than I deserve

'Cause you are , you are 
(You are my sunshine)
You brighten up my darkest day yeah, you 
(You are mine , all mine)
You are mine, all mine , all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine
Baby's it's you

Words like, darling, sweetheart, forever
Girl it's you I'll always adore
They only say, I love you
But you mean so much more

'Cause you are, you are, you are, you are
(You are my sunshine)
You're my sunshine, my sunshine...
