When will you guys stop comparing Donna to Madonna, Kylie to Madonna, Madonna to Gaga, Cyndi to Madonna, Kylie to Cyndi etc. etc. ???? That's ridiculous, they all have their own separate styles and are not each other's clones!
I love Donna Summer,but Brenda Russell's version blows it away,imo--it's her tune,so the phrasing and all the little other touches come through better.
Man.......... I used to really love Donna Summer & i used to love this song!!! I had a friend named Ian Gershwin (who claimed to b a distant relative of the great George Gershwin)...& i was 18 yrs old when this song came out in 1987, & it brings back old memories of my childhood buddie (Ian) & things i was doin' as a senior in high school!
I use to love this song when it was out, they use to play it so much on the radio stations in New York back in the days. I think I still have the orginal cassette with it. It was this song and Jodi Watley's "Dont you want me" was out at the same time and I loved them both.
This was a great song from 1987', I remember it fondly. It has an infectious pop melody, I was 9 yers old at the time and I always think about this song for some reason.
This was a very hot look at the time..........instigated by Madonna and then expanded on by Jody Watley, Paula Abdul, Karyn White, Bananarama, and the list goes on. I have a jacket just like this that I wore at the time...........and have held onto to this day to remind me of those amazing days!
if she didnt hook up with them...she wouldve done better...even though that album she did with them did make her #1 again...but still....they shouldve left that sound to rick astin...this song though has a disco sound to it along with it mixed with rock...country and r&b but if she wouldve stuck with this sound...i think she wouldve done just as well and stayed in the top 10
Yeah this is one of my favorite Donna songs too - the writing is one of the best examples of her intelligence in lyrics and she's really gotten quite good at it. I love this video - have never seen it before tonight - but Donna's beautiful!!!!

I saw Donna perform this on French TV: She was wearing this little tutu skirt. Very bold but she still looked good

Her stylist must have been on coke when deciding to combine this chiffon skirt with a rock-chick leather jacket, lol.
A great and totally underrated song. One of my favourites of this living legend.
This was proper RnB then!!

A great song and a great return to form. Then she jumped on the Stock Aitken Waterman gravy train to zero credibility - pity.

pay close attention to donna's facial expressions at 0:08-0:10 something or someone in the audience reaally pissed her off! its very easy to see.
