Finally, the US Premiere of our new CHIC song and video, "I'll Be There." We'll be performing it and an entire after-set on the Jimmy Kimmel Show Tuesday, April 14, 2015.

When I released the UK version of the song and vid a few weeks ago, everything was all about being at a place in time that would be etched in my memory for eternity.

Music has saved my life again and again - but before the total solar eclipse that happened on this year's vernal equinox in certain parts of the globe, I'd never known the actual date of any of the hundreds of songs I've released in my life. After having survived cancer these last four years, this artistically felt like blasphemy.

I have a new zest for life and work. The new CHIC album "It's About Time", comes soon. And I will document every important musical event, until The Day I Die.

It was important to get as many CHIC Org alumni in the vid - like Fonzi Thornton who replaced Luther Vandross in the group
