One last dance

Everybody knows her as the "Queen of Disco." Everybody acknowledges the fact that she's "THE Queen of Disco."

Her music was danced to by an entire generation - 2 generations actually. Her heyday in the 70s spilled over to the 80s, and I can still remember her songs being played on the radio, in parties and in the disco during my youth in the 80s.

When you listen to her songs right now, it feels as new and relevant as it did 4 decades ago. Her voice is stellar, and her penchant for performing was top notch. It's no wonder that Donna Summer was, is and forever will be the queen.

And now, she'll have to continue her reign in that big disco up in the sky. Maybe she'll meet up with Whitney and Michael - and between the 3 of them, that would be some party. (I can hear a mash up of "Last Dance," "I wanna dance with somebody," and "Dancing Machine.")

And before that happens, here's last once last dance for the queen, Donna Summer.



You will always be remembered.
