"Love to Love You Baby" not needed then



some info on Donna's Summer approach and about the song

It was rumored that Summer sang her very convincing orgasmic-sounding vocals on the studio floor while simulating a sex act. The rumor was partly true - after trying to record her vocal the traditional way, her producer Giorgio Moroder had her sing on the studio floor while lying on her back with the lights out, since she didn't want the guys working on the album looking at her when she sang it. She explained that she was indeed touching herself during the vocal - she had her hand on her knee. Her boyfriend Peter served as her fantasy inspiration.

Summer explained to the Telegraph Magazine why she doesn't perform this song in her shows nowadays: "If I were to do that song like I did it in the old days, the fire department would have to be at the show. Seriously. Riots broke out in, like, Argentina and Italy. I was in a tent in Italy, 5,000 men, almost no women, and I was doing 'Love to Love You, Baby' and I was fairly scantily clad - I was fairly young,' she adds hastily. 'And the guys got so wrapped up that they began to push the stage back. And I had to run off the stage, to my trailer out the back. And they came to the trailer and started to rock it. Five thousand guys in a little village in Italy! I just thought, 'I'm going to die today, I'm not going to get out of here.' It's not the kind of song you just want to throw out there."

ted - You remind me almost exactly of my musical evolution when I was 16. Radiohead, Pixies, Nick Cave etc. My music taste was much better then. In a few years time you'll just be listening to upbeat twee pop and girl groups. :icon_lol:

'Well just count the holes in the motherfucker's head' is a lyric I particularly enjoy.

Yep. Been through those phases as well. Although the last year or so I've found myself go down the route of 'old men singing about their spiritual journeys'.

On that note:

Bob Dylan - Gotta Serve Somebody

That was another one of my phases too!
