"We Are Family" by Sister Sledge is one of the most popular and iconic tracks of all time.

The song peaked at number 2 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and topped the R&B and Dance Club Songs charts. "We Are Family" also achieved gold status and its influence was solidified when it was preserved in the National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress in 2017 for its cultural significance.
