Music & Video Spotlight: Donna Summer, You Will Be Missed

On The Radio: Greatest Hits Vol.1 & 2

Donna Summer was the acknowledged Queen of Disco, and not for nothing. Where most disco-era songbirds had a hit single or two and then faded quickly into obscurity, Summer had top 10 hit after it. You can get all of the following hits on On The Radio: Greatest Hits Volumes I & II, an MP3 album priced at $9.49 (and remember: MP3s purchased from Amazon work with iTunes):

– On The Radio (radio & extended cut versions)

– Love To Love You, Baby

– I Feel Love

– Heaven Knows

– Last Dance

– MacArthur Park

– Hot Stuff

– Bad Girls

– Dim All The Lights

– No More Tears (Enough Is Enough)

The album has 16 tracks in all, and the only major Summer hit that’s missing here is She Works Hard For The Money. But luckily, MP3 music can be purchased by the track too, so if most of what you want is on On The Radio: Greatest Hits Volumes I & II, you can always buy that and then pick up She Works Hard For The Money as a single track, too.

Also consider taking in a viewing of that disco time capsule, Thank God It’s Friday, in which Summer stars as an aspiring disco chanteuse trying to catch the attention of a nightclub DJ as other comical scenarios between friends and couples play out in and around the club throughout the same night.

Watch for Jeff Goldblum in a small role, as well as Berlin lead singer Terri Nunn as a teen who heads to the club with a girlfriend and high hopes only to find she’s in over her head with the older and more sophisticated club crowd. This Instant Video is $2.99 for the rental and $7.49 to purchase, and right now it’s FREE for Amazon Prime members to view!

Note that Thank God It’s Friday was rated PG when it was originally released, but due to some strong language, adult situations and drug references, it would probably be rated PG-13 today—this rating didn’t exist when the film was originally released.
