I feel like giving Donna Summer BOS.  Did some people at the time actually believe she was a man, or is that just a funny urban legend?

well lah-dee-dah! it's Jimmy Somerville Donna Summer! BOS4 with props to Giorgio Moroder.

I have a DVD containing a version of this by the Blue Man Group which is pretty cool.

...when they were Diane Warren-free...

Did anyone watch the Golden Globes?  I tuned in halfway & apparently she won something right before I got there.

yeah, she wrote the Best Song winner, some Cher power ballad from Burlesque.

ELO is unavoidable in '77 I guess.

One of my favorite albums of all time came out in '77, but I'd get hell from some of you for suggesting 17 minutes of Pink Floyd to Annalisa.   :-\
