Donna Summer ~ I Feel Love 1977 Disco Purrfection Version

  • The Billboard chart for the week ending August 6, 1977 had Andy Gibb's "I Just Want To Be Your Everything" at #1, Bill Conti's #1 "Gonna Fly Now" had dropped to #47 and The Brothers Johnson "Strawberry Letter #23" was on its way up at #34. The top new entry that week was Meco's future #1 hit "Theme From Star Wars" at #71.
    There were eleven other new songs that week and at #86 was this groundbreaking electronic disco tune from Donna Summer. It was the coda for her latest LP "I Remember Yesterday" which pretty much summed up pop music from the 40's to the future with each era having a song on the album. This song's unmistakable intro of a rising synthesizer and at the crescendo, a dizzying array of layered synthesized sounds burst out of the radio at me that late spring. It started just as i got to the pharmacy and I had to turn off the car and listen to the whole thing while my sister waited digging the groove.
    Hypnotizing and mesmerizing, it was a watershed moment in pop history. Disco historians and critics both agree that "I Feel Love" is the birth of EDM (Electronic Dance Music), courtesy of Giorgio Moroder, Pete Bellotte and Donna Summer. Summer's voice and Keith Forsey's kick drum are the ONLY elements not created by a computer. Moroder had this idea for a song using oscillators to create a sonic disco experience and brought it to Summer. She said, "Giorgio brought me this popcorn track and I said 'What the hell is this, Giorgio?" The "popcorn" she was referring to was the 1972 single by Hot Butter, an early song that used the Moog Synthesizer to great effect that replicated the sound of popcorn popping and syncopating it with the electronic beats and bass. She finished the song "as a joke" not realizing the impact it was going to have.
    Summer notes that she knew the song was about the groove and that too many vocals would get in the way, so Pete Belotte wrote simple lyrics and she sang the song as if she were in a romantic reverie in her ice princess soprano and it fit perfectly. It was not considered for commercial release, and was relegated to the B side of "Can't We Sit Down And Talk It Over". DJ reaction was much stronger for the B side and Casablanca re-released the single with "I Feel Love" as the A side.
    Peaking at #4 disco and #6 pop in the US, it topped the UK charts for four weeks. Its influence never wavered and in 1982 Patrick Cowley, an ex-lighting man and neophyte disco producer made a name for himself with his astonishing nearly 16 minute remix that actually improved on the original.
    For this version I have edited together the original 12" version, the hard to find instrumental version and finish off with Patrick Cowley's remixed version for 27 minutes of disco heaven. I spent more money trying to find a pristine vinyl copy of the Patrick Cowley remix from 1982, acquiring FIVE copies and finally found one that was crystal clear...I hope you keep with the whole trip here...

    I paid 30 bucks for the Patrick Cowley mix back in 2000. Ebay was only 5 years old, but pictures had been added. I have never paid more for a song, but it's worth it. When i play it for someone who has never heard it, they freak. This is my all time favorite song ever recorded. I was 7 and came home from the 4th grade and Mom had this blasting on the old home stereo. I walked in and just sat on the floor and they had to get me my own copy of I Remember Yesterday and Live and More so they didn't have to play it for me all of the time. This mix is on my phone, and i used to listen to it when i could drive. Now it plays in the background in whatever I'm;' doing in my day.

The song had just came out and no one heard of it yet. People would come by and ask who and what is that.. you have to imagine a world without EDM and then hearing this song. it was really decades ahead of its time. they would ask to play it again and again. this is a great mix. staying true to the original.....its also very nice to see you know your pop / billboard history. i think music history should be a course all younger kids should learn. great job!!!

I'm glad that Donna/Giorgio and Bellotte were innovators and recognized that they had to record this masterpiece. It open the doors for techno and EDM.

    I was a twenty-year-old yupster when “I Feel Love” made the Top-40 in 1977, and even then it sounded like it came from the future. I am now listening to DiscoCat’s magnificent refreshment of Donna Summer’s very own Song of Songs. I never knew that Patrick Crowley accomplished his own 15-minute remix in 1982. It’s included here, along with the original album cut and the instrumental version. DiscoCat came up with a masterpiece against which other mixes by rival DJs must be measured. I listened all the way through, that’s why I believe that Donna Summer and Patrick Crowley are smiling down from heaven.

    I was only 4 years old, I couldn't understand the different types of music. But when my sister came home with this record I was mesmerized, hypnotized!! this magical sound entered me. This was "my music" I realized that only electronic music (and then rock too) would give me the right energy. The rest doesn't matter! Thanks a lot Donna Summer & Giorgino Moroder

    Another awesome tune from an amazing time, thanks for this. I was lucky to be born in 1962 and when disco came about I was in my top dancing form, boogieing the night and day away while collectiing tons of Vinyl, which I still have and play to this day. I have the original Donna Summer - I Feel Love on 12" which sounds amazing, as did all Donna Summer's tracks, especially on 12" and yes, I have the Patrick Cowley version of I feel Love too on 12" ... Boy did I sweat loads dancing non-stop to that amazing tune. Fantastic times when dance and great music ruled the world ;-)

      Me too. Still have over 1000 vinyls. I got the one-sided Casablanca 12" on import as soon as I could back then, but was disappointed that it was merely the 5mins 7" single with a 50% extension added from the middle part onwards -- something I was doing as a DJ anyway.

    At one point I owned around 50,000 copies of vinyl. Sold everything 15 years ago. Never regretted it, but there are a few copies that sometimes 'run through my mind'. That 'nearly 16 minute remix' by Patrick Cowley is one of them. The whip man, the whip!

    I feel love whenever I hear this incredible track ❤️
    A timeless classic,...it's still used on TV ads in 2022.

    Oh man, reminds me on a trip to Italy my parents took me as a10y old boy. There was a disco on top of the hill they were smashing this song. People dancing in the streets, good times and now a pandemic.

    I remember driving home through a blizzard on the way home from a DJ gig, in my ancient Volvo 145, with this track blasting out on the speakers and the windscreen wipers keeping perfect time. Around 1/2 ton of vinyl in the back probably helped to keep the car in contact with the ground.

    Insanely great. This sound is easily at home 22-years into the 21st Century.
