a string of hits that is mostly forgotten (and best forgotten).
I Feel Love was a unique, unforgettable beacon of disco.

What’s wrong with disco? Donna was indeed the queen, and her hits are NOT forgotten.
She was always a church singer, so her gospel efforts are not surprising.

Best forgotten!??? I would not have made it through the end of the 70’s without On The Radio.

You are right - it’s a beautiful song. She has a lovely voice.

Not a fan of Summers by any stretch, but gratuitiously trashing her prior career suggests the author does not know much about mainstream music.

Nice. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for her video...but I also have to relay this (per wiki):
“Summer earned a total of 42 hit singles on the US Billboard Hot 100 in her lifetime, with 14 of those reaching the top-ten. She claimed a top 40 hit every year between 1975 and 1984, and from her first top-ten hit in 1976, to the end of 1982, she had 12 top-ten hits (10 were top-five hits), more than any other act during that time period. She returned to the Hot 100’s top-five in 1983, and claimed her final top-ten hit in 1989 with “This Time I Know It’s for Real”. Her most recent Hot 100 hit came in 1999 with “I Will Go with You (Con Te Partiro)”. While her fortunes on the Hot 100 waned through those decades, Summer remained a force on the US Dance Club Songs chart over her entire career.”
The woman could flat out sing.

She sang the best Star Spangled Banner I ever heard. At the 2004 World Series game at Fenway Park.
Got to look it up on youtube - she was just awesome.

Donna Summer was fine. Some disco was fine.

Jimmy Barking Cricket, I never knew she passed on, let alone lung cancer.
IIRC she had converted to Christianity; hope she's getting to put her voice to good use up there.
