Chicago

Songwriter: Fabian Andre Gus Kahn Wilbur Schwandt

Stars Shining Bright Above You
Night Breezes Seem To Whisper, "I Love You"
Birds Singing In The Sycamore Tree
Dream A Little Dream Of Me

Just Say "Goodnight" And Kiss Me
Oh, Hold Me Tight And Tell Me You Miss Me;
While I'm Alone And Blue As Can Be
Dream A Little Dream Of Me

Stars Fading, But I Linger On, Dear
Still Craving Your Kiss;
I'm Longing To Linger Till Dawn, My Dear
Just Saying This:

Sweet Dreams Till Sunbeams Find You
Sweet Dreams That Leave All Worries Behind You
But In Your Dreams Whatever They Be
Dream A Little Dream Of Me

Say "Nightie-Night" And Kiss Me
Oh, Hold Me Tight And Tell Me You Miss Me;
While I'm Alone And Blue As Can Be
Dream A Little Dream Of Me

Dream A Little Dream Of You And Me

Chicago is a rock band hailing from the Illinois city of the same name. With its multitude of certified gold and platinum hits, the band has had enough longevity to last for over fifty years.

Chicago was formed on February 15, 1967, between keyboardist/singer Robert Lamm, trumpeter Lee Loughnane, saxophonist Walter Parazaider, drummer Danny Seraphine, guitarist Terry Kath, and trombonist James Pankow. The group called themselves “The Big Thing,” and played Top 40 hits in nightclubs in Chicago. In 1968, the band relocated to Los Angles, and changed their name to Chicago Transit Authority. They gained massive amounts of exposure to famous musicians of the time by regularly playing at the Whiskey A Go Go nightclub. In 1969, they released a self-titled album which peaked at No. 17 on the Billboard Hot 200 chart. The next year, the band shortened their name to “Chicago” to avoid a lawsuit from the actual company of the same name.

The band has released a plethora of albums, most of them titled Chicago enumerated with Roman numerals. The band changed its sound in the late 70s and 80s following the death of Terry Kath. Since then, the band has still carried on a legacy for the decades following, but has slowed the release of original music to a trickle.
