    This song means so much to me, dedicated to me on the day I was born. My parents would sing this when I was just a little girl. Now I have my own little ray of sunshine 💗

      I have no kids, probably won’t but this one hits me. Get to be sentimental sometimes…when all your peers have kids grown up or growing up…but it’s all good..we are all in the one family…sort of.. I hope.

    Last night I had the pleasure to see Glenn Shorrock and Brian Cadd in concert in Brisbane. Glenn is 77 and Brian 76. What performers! When they played this great song bought tears to my eyes as this is what I played on the way home from the hospital after my daugther was born in 1994. I had it on a CD and kept hitting the repeat. It was a 240 km trip from the hospital to home.

    I love this song...This song was playing on the car radio whilst my daughter was being born in the ambulance on the main Highway 18 years ago. Her father was listening to it just before he pulled up behind the ambulance. They opened up the door and congratulated him on the birth of his daughter and told him to meet us at the hospital. So, this is Chelsea's song! Cathi. :)

      When our girl was born in 1971, this became the song for her. Sadly, 5 weeks ago we had it play during the committal of her body. It's no longer a happy song for us, rather a reflective song. Thank you Brian Cadd & Don Mudie for putting this song together.

    After 18 hrs at the hospital waiting for my daughter to be born my little Ray of Sunshine came into the world 9.03 pm 24/6/1995. About 11 pm my Mother in Law sent me home in a cab and a few songs in on the cab ride home this song came on the radio. Will never forget that moment!

    An amazing coincidence in time & place, which I just stumbled over ! This Channel 9 Adelaide clip was filmed in the courtyard outside the old church, which in more recent years was the NWS9 canteen. Right at the end of the clip, you'll see host & my old 5KA colleague Vince Lovegrove of 'The Valentines' back announce Axiom. By the way, up until July 2010 our Adelaide radio sales team was temporarily working in 'the old church', during renovations at MIX & Cruise ! Regards, IAN in Victor Harbor

    I remember first hearing this gem of a song on GTK on the ABC just before Bellbird. It must have been in 1970. A great song and Glen Shorrock and Brian Cadd terrific singers.
    What wonderful memories and I can't believe it was 39m years ago.

    'Little Ray of Sunshine' is ultra special in our family. Our mother sang along with baby Katie on her hip. Days before Katie turned one, our pregnant mother suicided, leaving us ten kids behind. We can't listen to 'Little Ray of Sunshine' without thinking about our mother and what might have been. Some melodies freeze frame time.
