LOVE HANGOVER
1976
Motown was slow in embracing disco and "Love Hangover" was a slow burner with a dance beat that gave Diana another solo US #1 on both the Pop and Soul charts. The disc also reached #10 in Britain.

I'M COMING OUT
1980
Diana topped the Disco Chart with this funky dance track. The single also made the Top 10 on the US Pop and R&B charts. In the UK, the disc reached #13. With a title declaring "I'm Coming Out", it was inevitable that the song would be adopted as a gay anthem.
