I FEEL LOVE - DAVE THOMPSON TASCHENBUCH

When it comes to earthshaking songs-the ones that signal a tectonic shift in the current
musical landscape-there is Johnny B. Goode . . . there is Good Vibrations . . . and there is I
Feel Love. A disco touchstone recorded by Donna Summer in 1976 and released on her fifth studio
album  I Remember Yesterday  in 1977  I Feel Love is one of the most important records in music
history  and one of the most influential. I Feel Love topped charts the world over-including in
the UK  Australia  France  Italy  and the Netherlands-and was in the Top 10 everywhere else.
This record  Brian Eno told David Bowie as they worked together in the recording studio  is
going to change the sound of club music for the next fifteen years. Which  said Bowie  was more
or less right. Except fifteen years was an under-estimation. Even now  more than forty years
after its release  I Feel Love is routinely featured toward the top of manifold greatest song
Top 100s-and remains a favorite by music fans and artists alike  with dozens of cover versions
paying homage. That is the tale this book tells-not only the story of the song but also the
story of its all-pervading impact upon the world of popular music. Firsthand experiences and
original interviews with a host of musicians  disc jockeys  and dancers loudly illustrate the
record's initial impact and its continuing influence. I Feel Love still sounds like the future.
