R.I.P. Donna Summer

Donna Summer lost her battle with cancer yesterday, and left this earth at the age of 63. The "Queen of Disco" leaves behind a musical legacy with hits that spanned the better part of two decades in the 70's and 80's. We've posted probably two of her bigger hits of the 80's already, so here are a couple more of Donna's gems in her honor. "On the Radio" was released in 1979 and was written for the soundtrack to the film "Foxes" and included on Summer's first international compilation album "On the Radio: Greatest Hits Volumes 1 & 2." It was released as a single and became, in January 1980, her tenth top ten hit in the U.S.
