"Making Our Dreams Come True" AKA the Laverne & Shirley Theme

Today I am feeling a bit under the weather, so I will leave you with a short post about a theme song to a show that just turned fifty, Laverne & Shirley. "Making Our Dreams Come True" was one of the few television show theme songs that actually reached the top forty of the Billboard Hot 100. The song was written by Charles Fox and Norman Gimbel. Charles Fox had wrote the theme to Love, American Style with Arnold Margolin and the theme to The Love Boat. Lyricist Norman Gimbel co-wrote songs form  "Ricochet" to "Killing Me Softly With His Song." "Making Our Dreams Come True"was sung by Cyndi Grecco, then an unknown singer. It was released as a single in May 1976 and included on her debut album, also titled Making Our Dreams Come True. The song actually became a minor hit in the United States. It peaked at no. 25 on the Billboard Hot 100. It actually did better in Canada, where it reached no. 16 on the Canadian singles chart. Cyndi Grecco would sing the theme to Garry Marshall sitcom, the short-lived Blanksy's Beauties. Unfortunately Cyndi Greccor's recording career would be short-lived. She would only have one other album, Wish Upon a Star in 1976.
