"We Are Family" is a 1979 dance hit song by Sister Sledge, composed by Bernard Edwards and Nile Rodgers. Rodgers and Edwards offered the song to Atlantic Records; although the record label initially declined, the track was released as a single from the album of the same name and quickly began to gain club and radio play. It eventually went gold, becoming the number one R&B and number two pop song on the charts in 1979. It was also the theme song for the 1979 Pittsburgh Pirates, and was featured in the 1996 film The Birdcage, starring Robin Williams and Nathan Lane.
