Remember the 21st night of September? Fans certainly do, as Earth, Wind & Fire's timeless anthem continues to resonate with listeners around the globe. The legendary song, with its infectious rhythm and nostalgic lyrics, has kept hearts ringing and souls singing for over forty years.

The video on Imgur titled "Guess what day it is!" brings this classic back to life, sparking joy and memories among viewers. The lyrics, "Love was changing the minds of pretenders while chasing the clouds away," remind everyone of the magic that this day holds.

Comments on the video highlight the enduring popularity of the song. One user exclaimed, "Such a great song!" while another shared, "Tagging this for tomorrow's needs." The love for Earth, Wind & Fire (EW&F) is evident, with a fan reminiscing, "I loved EW&F when I was a teen."

Interestingly, another user pointed out a mashup with MGMT's "Kids," sharing a link to the captivating blend: [MGMT's Kids Mashup](https://youtu.be/loRA5XxACcw?si=jhoysp6gXcru_YtR). This fusion showcases the song's versatility and its ability to complement modern tunes.

Maurice White and his bandmates have indeed created a timeless masterpiece. As one commenter put it, "Forty-some years later this song still slaps. Maurice and company were the best."

The song's association with personal memories is strong. One encouraging comment revealed a family tradition: "My daughter's birthday is 21/09. Every year, I get up before she does, go downstairs, load this song up, and wait. Then when she comes downstairs, I play this and do the most atrocious dad-dancing possible. Then we have pancakes."

The video also sparked discussions about time zones and the ritualistic nature of celebrating this song on the correct day. One user noted, "Not here, but I guess it's the 21st somewhere," while another added, "Looks like someone lives east of the Atlantic. I'll be posting these in about 12 hours."

Even celebrities and influencers like Caroline Konstnar get mentions, with one user commenting, "Caroline Konstnar had a kid. Allegedly."

The video ends with a simple yet powerful message, "Thank you for watching!" reminding everyone of the joy and unity that music can bring. So, whether it's the 20th or the 21st in your time zone, take a moment to dance to Earth, Wind & Fire's iconic hit and make some memories of your own.
