One Shining Moment by Jennifer Hudson, Music Lyrics and Video

One Shining Moment is an inspirational song written by David Barrett about the Men's College Basketball Championship (at the end of the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Tournament).
Barrett was the original artist, but CBS has also broadcast remakes by Teddy Pendergrass (1994-1999) and Luther Vandross (2003-2009). It is believed to be the last song Vandross recorded before his stroke and subsequent death. A new version by Jennifer Hudson will be unveiled for the 2010 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament.
Barrett thinks that changing the singer every few years keeps the song fresh. "A lot of younger folks, they have their singers. And Jennifer is their singer. And she's wonderful."
"One Shining Moment" is traditionally played at the end of CBS Sports' coverage of the championship game of the tournament. The song is played as the winning team's players cut down the nets, to a montage of highlights from the tournament.

The ball is tipped
and there you are
you're running for your life
you're a shooting star
And all the years
no one knows
just how hard you worked
but now it shows... (in)

One Shining Moment
it's all on the line
One Shining Moment
there frozen in time.

But time is short
and the road is long
in the blinking of an eye
ah that moment's gone
And when it's done
win or lose
you always did your best
cuz inside you knew... (that)

One Shining Moment
you reached deep inside
One Shining Moment
you knew you were alive!

Feel the beat of your heart
feel the wind in your face
it's more than a contest
it's more than a race...

And when it's done
win or lose
you always did your best
cuz inside you knew... (that)

One Shining Moment
you reached for the sky
One Shining Moment, you knew
One Shining Moment, you were willing to try
One Shining Moment...
One Shining Moment...
One Shining Moment!
