Whitney Houston recorded her first partial solo for the song “Life’s A Party” by the Michael Zager Band. The song was the title track for the band’s third album, released in 1978.
Lyrics
Love, love, smile, everybody smile, dance
‘Cause life’s party everyone comes to, comes to
Join in! Come on!
Love, everyone love
Smile, everyone smile
Dance, everyone have a ball
‘Cause life’s party everyone comes to
Laugh, everyone laugh
Sing, everyone sing
Live, everyone have a ball
‘Cause life’s party everyone comes to
Lift your head up when life looks dreary
Let your wishes climb to the sky
Things will always make a life brighter
If you go lighter, take things in stride, then you will glide
So love, everyone love
Everyone smile, everybody smile
Dance, everyone have a ball
‘Cause life’s party everyone comes to
Join in! Come on!
