One Dream - Kids From Fame

"One Dream " is an inspirational peace song which comes from the season 5 episode "His Majesty Donlon". Unfortunately there are no song credits at the end of the episode so it is Unknown who wrote the song. 

 The song is performed by Jesse Borrego, Nia Peeples, Loretta Chandler, Carlo Im,perato, Gene Anthony Ray, Cynthia Gibb and Billy Hufsey.  The video is filmed outside the U.N. Building in New York City.  Sadly, rain stopped filming and they were unable to shoot the required close ups of each of the cast members so these had to filmed back in L.A. Gene Anthony Ray was not available to film any close up.

The song was never released on a Fame Single or Album and so far has never been performed in any of the Fame concerts.

His Majesty Donlon Continuity Error

In Addition To the "One Dream" Number being placed at the end of the story, when the Episode actually starts after the Kids have just performed and are returning to the School, the close up shots where filmed at a different time in L.A. and not on Location in New York. We see in Loretta's close up that the buttons on her dress are all closed however in the longer shots filmed on location the top button is undone and folded over to the side.
