- description: Rest In Peace Donna Thanks for sharing a little of your magic with us.... Thanks to everyone for the many warm tributes to this disco legend Donna passed away today May 17, 2012. at her home in Florida at age 63 following a battle with cancer.... Born LaDonna Adrian Gaines in Boston, Massachusetts , she was one of seven children Summer's mother later recalled that from the time she could talk, Summer would often sing: "She literally loved to sing. She used to go through the house singing, singing. She sang for breakfast and for lunch and for supper' In 1967, just weeks before graduation, Summer left for New York where she was a member of the blues-rock band, Crow. After they were passed by every record label, they agreed to break up. Summer stayed in New York and auditioned for a role in the counterculture musical, Hair. When Melba Moore was cast in the part, Summer agreed to take the role in the Munich production of the show. She moved to Munich after getting her parents' reluctant approval. Summer remained in Munich and later learned fluent German. She participated in the musicals Ich Bin Ich (the German version of The Me Nobody Knows), Godspell and Show Boat. Within three years, she moved to Vienna, Austria and joined the Viennese Folk Opera While singing background for the hit-making 1970s trio Three Dog Night, Summer met producers Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte. She eventually signed a deal with the European label Groovy Records and issued her first album, Lady of the Night, in 1974. The album was not released in America, but found some limited European success on the strength of the song "The Hostage", which reached number one in Belgium and number two in the Netherlands. In 1975, Summer approached Moroder with an idea for a song she and Bellotte were working on for another singer. She had come up with the lyric "love to love you, baby". Moroder was interested in developing the new sound that was becoming popular and used Summer's lyric to develop the song. Moroder persuaded Summer to record what was to be a demo track for another performer. She later said that she had thought of how the song might sound if Marilyn Monroe had sung it and began cooing the lyrics. To get into the mood of recording the song, she requested Moroder turn off the lights while they sat on a sofa with him inducing her moans and groans. After hearing playback of the song, Moroder felt Summer's version should actually be released..... wikipedia Oh baby it's been so long I've waited so long and now that I have you I want you to come come come come into my arms Oh baby I need you I need you Come come come into my arms again Spirits move me every time I'm near you Whirling like a cyclone in my mind Oh Sweet Peter, angel of my lifetime Answer to all answers I can find Baby, I love you, come, come, come into my arms Let me know the wonder of all of you Baby, I want you now, now, now, and hold on fast Could this be the magic at last?
