    This song was # 1 in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Italy, France, the Netherland and the UK. It was top 10 in Canada, West Germany, New Zealand, Norway, Ireland, South Africa, Sweden, and Switzerland. In the US, it spent 8 weeks as th "b"side to "Can't We Just Sit Down (and talk it over)", until focus was switched to I Feel Love. That is why there was only one single released in the US, from the album I Remember Yesterday (the album the song came from), because both sides were used. CWJSD reached the top 20 on the R & B chart, before they started promoting I Feel Love in the US. Both the album and single sold over a million copies in the US.

    Sounds great Live, but to hear how amazing this song IS you need to listen to a studio version. All the instrumentals were created with a MOOG synthesizer which was groundbreaking for 1977 and paved the way for Electronic Dance music of today!! This song is in the library of Congress for being one of the most influental songs of the century.

    Giorgio Moroder who wrotes all tracks including this worldwide #1 Iconic Hit for Donna Summer established her worldwide fame as the ultimative Disco Queen. He and Kraftwerk were about 20 years ahead of their time and were the godfathers of electronic music. Moroder has won three Academy Awards: Best Original Score for Midnight Express (1978); Best Song for "Flashdance...What a Feeling", from the film Flashdance (1983) and Best Song for "Take My Breath Away", from Top Gun (1986).

    Nice reaction guys. Another song of Donna Summer's that would be great for you to check out would be Macarthur Park as even though it's classed as disco it's quite "theatrical" sounding. Then there's al her other great hits that are more disco like: Last Dance, Bad Girls, Hot Stuff, Heaven Knows, She works Hard for the Money, Love to love you baby, On the radio, and of course the duo she did with Barbra Streisand - No More Tears.

    This is the SHORT version! You gotta hear the long version which was played in the discos! This is my favorite Donna Summer song and yes, it definitely puts you in a trance. It was disco but it was more futuristic and European since the songwriter was Giorgio Moroder who is the man on the keyboard/synthesizer.
    Please also react to another Donna Summer song "Enough is Enough (no more tears)" a duet with Barbra Streisand - they sound so amazing together!

    Hey guys, something it is very wrong in this video!
    That version,it is from the Donna Summer's (1978) "Live and More" album, "I Feel Love", (original 6.54 mins. live version). You have in this reactions video a bad and short cut of the live version song.
    You should to hear the "I Remember Yesterday" album, "I Feel Love" (1977, one take, 5.53 mins. original studio version).
    That is it a really angel voices in combination with the galactic futuristic sound explotions. I will like to hear your reactios.
    I am a Donna Summer's fan from 1976. Her musical catalog it is very impresive with a hight quality of her vocalizations, voices, lyrics and sounds. She can sing any music styles.
    She was a very talented and beautiful woman and nobody can do it, as she did it. I called her: "The One Thousand Voices Girl" , and you will know why.
    Blessings to everybody!

      Well, to be fair, by 1979, disco all sounded the same and it died a deserved death at that point - corporate disco sucked. Same with the great 80s hair bands - I got sick them by the late 80s and grunge was a welcome breath of fresh air until it also got corporatized, too.
