What song is this screenshot of a 1970s video taken from?
I embedded the video on my team's softball blog after a win last fall, and now YouTube's taken the actual video down for copyright violations. All of the songs I'd post were soul/R&B stuff from the 1970s. Possibly the early 1980s. It's safe to say this is probably an upbeat song, and one that was pretty popular for me to know of it 20+ years later.
It's not anything by Marvin Gaye, Al Green, Tavares, or McFadden & Whitehead -- cause I used those guys in other postings. This has been haunting me for days, and the teammates I've asked about it are no help.

Best answer: It's Maurice White of Earth Wind & Fire. Video here.
