R.I.P. Donna.

Her dance mix cover of Someday from Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame

^Oddly enough, when I searched for this specific song, I didn't expect it to become so emotional upon hearing it again. It was on a CD I'd bought not long after I lost my mom to cancer, and to know that Donna also died too young from cancer . . . just . . . :(

Ms Summer's songs are timeless and I Feel Love was certainly ahead of its time. I love so many of her songs but This Time I Know It's For Real will always hold a special place in my heart!
No More Tears with Streisand is an epic dance song! Never fails to get me and my boyfriend on the dance floor!

They just played MacArthur Park on the radio as the DJ announced the news...

The MacArthur Park Suite is a great song for a workout....
