When Donna Summer played the Bank of America Pavilion in August 2010, she explained to the audience how much she loved those early iPod commercials. They featured silhouettes of people listening to music and dancing with wild abandon. “That’s the way music makes me feel inside,’’ she said.
That’s the way Summer’s music made many of her fans feel, too: safe in a bubble of beats and beauty, and moved to dance like no one was watching.

Some years ago I bought a CD with some of Summer's best hits. (I think the CD is called "Endless Summer" if I remember correctly.) She definitely was the Queen of Disco.
