    If you have seen this movie, the song plays the moment Austin enters the Skating rink in 1975. The lyrics go: Superstar that is who you are...

    It has a very funky disco beat. It was also used in a commercial for Dasani water. It had a girl rollerblading. The group is all African American, unless they had some other group perform the song.

    I've been looking for this song for ages...

    I may be wrong, BUT I think I read in a review of the "Goldmember" CD that they use Earth Wind & Fire's "Shining Star" from 1975.

    "You're a shining star, no matter who you are/ shining bright to see, cause you can truly be"

    Sound familiar?
    "Lost inside adorable illusion...."
