We Are Family because it's the only song I've heard of.

Sister Sledge were great! I voted "Thinking of You".
Whistle, do you know they remixed a lot of their hits in the UK circa mid90s and they all went Top 20 I think.
EDIT : As far as remixes go, they were pretty top notch, esp Thinking Of You. I used to have it but lost it at some point.

I knew that yes. They had 3 straight UK Top 20 hits in 1993 with remixes of We Are Family, Lost in Music and Thinking of You 8)

'We Are Family' in its pure, unaltered, un-remixed form...
Actually, anything from that same-titled LP will do...(and in actual fact, those two 1984 titles were off that LP - they both hit big when re-released that year...)
But sadly...they went rapidly downhill afterward...('Frankie' was a travesty, IMO...sorry Jason!)

Wow...I didn't know they had a lot of 80's stuff as well. :o Anyway, the one I'd vote for is "We Are Family." 8) The only other song of theirs I know well is "He's The Greatest Dancer," which Will Smith sampled in his 1998 hit "Getting Jiggy With It."
