"We Are Family" is one of those songs you've heard but don't know who it is by. Sister Shanna conveys unity and trust in others with great strength and joy. For this reason, this song is used as a sign of brotherhood in many social events.
.
We Are Family is one of the most popular singles by the American band Sister Sledge. The composers of the song are Bernard Edwards and Nile Rodgers. It was the first song that Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards recorded for someone other than Chic. His band's recent success with the single Dance, Dance, Dance (Yowsah, Yowsah, Yowsah) led the president of Atlantic Records to ask him to record more hits for the label's other musicians.

However, Rodgers and Edwards were not confident enough to write songs for someone as successful on the label as the Rolling Stones or Bette Midler. They also knew that if listeners liked the song, they would have little reputation as songwriters and wouldn't find what they needed.

Then, the two proposed to the company to write and release a song for the agency's most successful group or person. If the single had been that successful, he would have been ready to write a song for someone bigger. As Rogers later explained, "We Are Family" was based on how record company executive Jerry L. Ginberg described the Sledge Sisters when asked to write the song. Therefore, this title, like the choir, belongs to the family of four sisters that make up the group.

The group's lead singer, Cathy Sledge, managed to record her entire vocal part on a single recording at the age of 19. Other sisters featured on the list include Joni Sledge, Debbie Shana and Kim Sledge. The group formed in 1971 in their hometown of Philadelphia.

Atlantic Records initially rejected the song, but it was released as a single in April 1979 and became the band's biggest hit. In 1979, a music video was also filmed to promote the single.

In fact, this single has been used as an expression of solidarity in various contexts, as it is an anthem of the We Are Family Foundation, founded by Nile Rodgers in the United States after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. We Are Family won gold and became the second number one R&B song on the US charts in 1979, behind Donna Summer and her hit Hot Stuff. It also topped the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart. Billboard magazine named the single one of the 20 greatest group songs of all time.

In 2017, the song was selected by the Library of Congress for inclusion in the National Recording Registry because it is a "culturally, historically, and artistically significant" work.

Some options include: Babies in Toyland, some cartoons, Samantha Jade, Eddie Murphy and The Birdcage OST.
