Much better than the original! Yikes! I hate that song.

I never knew Donna had covered “MacArthur Park”. I don’t remember hearing it as a child. But since I knew well the original, I thought “oh God, it must be awful; how could she do that?” Finally heard it a few years ago. At least she and disco made it tolerable.

Lung cancer although she did not smoke. She said that the toxic air after 9/11 gave her cancer.

I did a double-take when someone just pinged me to this. Miss Summer died 2 1/2 years ago.

“Thank God It’s Friday”, a movie that rivals “Godfather”.

She was great in that.
