Donna's top 10 grammy nominated effort, produced by Quincy Jones after the "I'm A Rainbow" album debacle. Quincy would go on to produce MJ's "Thriller" immediately afterward. This album included the "practice run" for "We Are The World", Jon and Vengelis' "State of Independence". I've merged the 12" vinyl with the CD album track to capture the best sound whenever possible, as to my knowledge, this extended track has yet to be remastered digitally.

So true. Listen to the b-side of this superb single, the haunting ballad 'Sometimes Like Butterflies' - this beautiful song shows off Donna Summer's incredibly soulful voice so well, and shows just how diverse and accomplished an artist she was. She left us way too soon, but she will never be forgotten. Her fine legacy of music will endure for all time.👌🎤🎶

This was a huge hit, but it really didn't get the recognition as a futuristic funk anthem that it deserved. It was the jam of the summer, but oddly, quickly forgotten by the general public. I think it's an absolutely perfect, brilliant pop/funk song, with an unmatched energy. A true classic.

My aunts third husband had just died (YES There were more) this song came on the radio and I rocked her living room with it up and down like only a 17-year-old kid can do.

That vocoder told us that the 80s were going to take over soon. The first 2 years of the 80s were a 70s hangover. The decade didn't have its own identity yet. Donna, Midnight Star, The Pointers, along with the Electro/Hip Hop/Techno pioneers shook us out of the 70s and pushed things forward. Cool to see that Donna was all in back then.

@@kojoharrison630 Absolutely. I still remember the first time I heard "Love To Love You Baby" walking past the electronics department in Sears & it was playing on a high end stereo in the aisle. I told my mother I wanted to go to the National Record Mart & buy the record. When she listened to it for a moment, she rolled her eyes and we went to the Record Mart & got the 45. It had Part 1 on one side & Part 2 on the other. I played both sides of that record until it sounded like crap. One of the clearest memories of my childhood, oddly.

@@zubileegluckgluck WOW!!👏🏾👏🏾 A true Donna Summer child 👍🏾 I still have that vinyl from 1975 with its accompanying Full Album cassette which are still looking new as I’ve taken good care of them. I have all her vinyls & CDs as well. Her music wasn’t just composed but constructed and the vocal resonance and range is just second to none….. James Ingram applauded her during the recording of ‘Mystery of Love’ on the 1982 ‘Donna Summer’ album saying she has the best vocals that can handle any style of music. Quincy JONES echoed those sentiments. With Donna’s experience when Love is Control was cut, she wasn’t satisfied so sent Quincy & the production team back to the studio and they did it all over again until Donna was satisfied. She was Renowned for her ‘once only’ takes on all her recordings and was dubbed ‘One-Take’ Donna as she recorded her vocals just once without retakes!!

My sisters Eva & Caroline came to New Jersey from Maine. My Sister Eva wanted to see my Uncle William Napoli So I called him and he invited me & my sisters Eva & Caroline to Bayonne NJ. When we arrived in Bayonne my uncle called his girlfriend Erica. Erica loved my sisters Eva & Caroline and was thrilled to see them!!! My Uncle & Erica decide to take us to a HOT dance club in New York City. Erica told us that the people who go there are AMAZING to watch in action. My sisters & me were dressed accordingly for being in a club. All of us then went to New York and went into the dance club. Some close friends of my Uncle & Erica were there and happy to meet us when my Uncle introduced us to them. We sat down and watched everyone else dance & they were AMAZING to see. We all had dinner which was FANTASTIC!!! My Uncle & Erica danced and were really good!!! Later the DJ'S decided to have a dance contest and used this song for everyone competing. My sisters heard this song and just waited for our turn to "DESTROY" the dance floor and BURN the HOUSE DOWN!!!!! My Uncle & Erica danced to this song and were AWESOME!!!! One of my Uncle's friends was leading the contest and asked my Uncle if we could dance!! Then he asked if we were any good. I looked at my sisters and told my uncle, " This CONTEST is OVER right NOW!!! Eva & Caroline were UPSET and told me "LOAD THE ARSENAL"!!! when I heard that my energy level went "NUCLEAR"!!! Then I LOST my MIND!!! and went into a RAGE!!!!! The three of us got on the dance floor and PROCEEDED to "DESTROY" the dance floor and everyone else in the building!!! People were SCREAM- ING!!! FREAKING OUT!!! & LOSING their MINDS!!! as we put on a DANCE SHOW!!!! We got done & even the DJ"S were STUNNED over what we did!!! We won the contest and Received $5,000.00 Dollars in prize money!!! My Uncle & Erica were in tears as they held us!!! My Uncle's friend came up to us STUNNED!!! and said, " WHO are THESE PEOPLE"!!! My Uncle replied, "My Nieces & Nephew were Roller- Skating and Dance Champions!!!! We then danced with my Uncle & Erica and the CHEERING & Applause we received was DEFINING!!!! People came up to us and shook our hand & hugged us!!!! 😍😍💞💞💞❤❤❤❣❣❣🌩🌩🌩⚡⚡⚡🌀🌀🌀🔥🔥🔥 For My SISTERS Eva & Caroline!!!!

I've always loved this song. I didn't know that it was produced by Quincy Jones but I should have guessed that because to me, it always sounded like a good track to go along with this one would be Michael's P.Y.T. . Anyway, thanks for sharing!
