CAFFE` LATTE` TOP 2000 TRACKS
THE TOP 100
#17 OUR LOVE
DONNA SUMMER
(1979)
Writers: Donna Summer & Giorgio Moroder
Donna Summer released the double album 'Bad Girls' in 1979. At the time, she was enjoying the peak of her popularity on both the Pop and Disco charts. The new LP spawned the hit singles "Hot Stuff", "Dim All The Lights" and the title track, fast becaming her best selling studio release. Another song on the album, "Our Love" was issued as a later single. 
Giorgio Moroder composed the music and Summer penned the lyrics for "Our Love". It's an underrated yet influential dance track. Moroder co-produced the recording with long-time collaborator Pete Bellotte. "Our Love" features Dan Wyman working his magic on the synthesizer. The recording engulfs the ears with an innovative and alluring sound.
This is a list made up of the songs I enjoy the most, ranked in order of preference: the higher we go, the more I cherish them. Some were released as singles, others as album tracks. Some are obscure; others were worldwide hits or have universal appeal. They aren't always the most famous or popular, but simply a personal choice. I have excluded songs from the last few years in order to get a better idea of a song's lasting impression. I hope you find some new tracks to love, or re-discover some past favourites. 
Each week, 2 new songs from the remaining Top 100 are added, while another 2 are also included from positions 1501-2000 on the other weekdays. Check back here for an update of the 2000.
