This song is originally titled, "Making Our Dreams Come True", taken from the sitcom, "Laverne & Shirley"
This was the theme, performed by pop singer Cyndi Grecco and her sound-alike Beach Boys sunshine-pop harmonious male backing vocal group, The Ron Hicklin Singers with group members Ron Hicklin himself, Tom Bahler and Jim Haas from the TV series Laverne & Shirley, starring Penny Marshall and Cindy Williams.
It was written by Norman Gimbel and Charles Fox; they wrote a variety of songs together, including the themes from the TV shows Happy Days (Laverne & Shirley was a spin-off from this show) and Angie.
Brown-eyed soul/pop star and studio backing vocalist Laurie Maitland did a soulful disco remake of that catchy tune, re-titled, "We're Gonna Make Our Dreams Come True" from that family sitcom in a Donna Summer style, taken from her 1998 self-titled debut album, with the ballad intro that starts off with "Give us any chance, we'll take it" and picking up the speed to a fascinating '70s disco beat with added music and lyrics by herself and Lesley's Gore's songwriting friend, Ellen Weston, who wrote "Love Me By Name".
