Wise Music Tune of the Week: Sunshine Day

Originally released by the Afro-pop band Osibisa in 1976, 'Sunshine Day' remains one of those songs that instantly lifts the mood. With its infectious groove, upbeat tempo, and vibrant horn sections, it’s a celebration of life and light — the kind of track that can turn an ordinary day into something special.

Osibisa, a band made up of African and Caribbean musicians based in London, was known for blending highlife, rock, jazz, and funk. 'Sunshine Day' encapsulates this unique sound, fusing African rhythms with Western instrumentation. The chorus - 'Everybody do what you're doing, smile will bring a sunshine day!' - is simple, memorable, and irresistibly optimistic.
