    RIP Donna Summer. :(

    Such a shame ...at 63, so hardly 'old'.

    This landmark song of hers brings back such happy memories for me.
    It was way ahead of its time too:

    So many great songs to choose from. I have her greatest hits album.
    'I feel Love' really started electronic dance music.

    What a great time the real' Disco Era' was...to be in your 20s and boogying every night of the week. Thanks for the memories Donna.

    Slight change of accent to the thread but General McArthur was also involved in the Philippines evidently...

    MacArthur first ran away from the Phils in 1941 and then did his glorious return a couple of years later after the poor Filipinos had been left at the mercy of the Japs.

    ...Also a city in Eastern Samar.

    No, probably just trying to get my pants off.

    (Face blanked out because she was the girlfriend of a mate of mine, and might be a member of this board now for all I know. ).
