Lyrics provided by oneshiningmoment.com
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….

What a great season. “One Shining Moment” always gets me because it reminds me of all the effort and dedication college athletes put into their sport. Most of them aren’t going on to the next level, so this is the pinnacle of their atheletic careers. Illinois had a terrific run this year, and if 1989 is any indication, we are going to remember this team for a long time.
One Shining Moment Illini highlights:
1) Dee Brown kissing a basketball
2) Roger Powell Jr’s. textbook reason of why you should follow your shot: dunk you very much
3) Deron, for three!
4) Bruce, walking, and looking, well, peaceful.
5) Bruce, in the orange blazer, almost on his knees.
Thank you, 2004-2005 basketball team.
