Who sang this original?

[call me daddy x]

Does anyone here know who sang the original version of the song "wishing on a star"? Just saw the commercial with Beyonce singing it, just curious who was the original. Thanx.

 

[mindy_me]

it's from the late 70's done by Rose Royce.

I thought that's who did it, but wasn't sure since there were so many remake's. Thanx!
