Donna Summer (1948-2012): On the Radio

Disco singer extraordinaire Donna Summer has died after a long struggle with cancer. There will be many reminiscences of Summer and her work. I remember her best for her wonderful 1979 song, On The Radio, written with Georgio Moroder.

Someone found a letter you wrote me, on the radio

And they told the world just how you felt

It must have fallen out of a hole in your old brown overcoat

They never said your name

But I knew just who they meant . . .

If you think that love isn’t found on the radio

Well tune right in you may find the love you lost

’cause now I’m sitting here with the man I sent away long ago

It sounded really loud they said it really loud

On the radio . . .

Goodbye Donna, and thanks.
