It's time. The first singles rate for a TRUE legend, and no one better to do it with than the one and only LaDonna Adrian Gaines.

You know her as Donna Summer.

Or, alternatively, the reason your faves live and breathe.

Soon to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

The ONLY woman to be nominated in the General, Pop, Rock, R&B, Dance and Gospel fields at the Grammys. (Take that Janet fans!)

Four number one singles in the US alone. (A few of them are lesser, but we'll get to that later.)

So a queen like Donna (the only possible homophobe I love, give or take a Reba) deserves a rate that befits her genius.

Separating the wheat from the chaff, here are the singles that will be competing in this rate:

"Love to Love You Baby" #2 US
"Could It Be Magic" #52 US
"Try Me, I Know We Can Make It" #80 US
"Spring Affair" #58 US
"I Feel Love" #6 US
"Down Deep Inside" #5 UK
"Love's Unkind" #3 UK
"I Love You" #37 US
"Last Dance" #3 US
"MacArthur Park" #1 US
"Heaven Knows" (w/ Brooklyn Dreams) #4 US
"Hot Stuff" #1 US
"Bad Girls" #1 US
"Dim All the Lights" #2 US
"No More Tears (Enough is Enough)" (w/ Barbra Streisand) #1 US
"On the Radio" #5 US
"The Wanderer" #3 US
"Love Is in Control (Finger on the Trigger)" #10 US
"State of Independence" #41 US
"The Woman in Me" #33 US
"She Works Hard for the Money" #3 US
"Unconditional Love" #43 US
"There Goes My Baby" #21 US
"Supernatural Love" #75 US
"Dinner with Gershwin" #48 US
"This Time I Know It's for Real" #7 US
"I Don't Wanna Get Hurt" #7 UK
"Love's About to Change My Heart" #85 US
"When Love Cries" #77 US
"Carry On" (w/ Giorgio Moroder) Grammy for Best Dance Recording
"I Will Go with You (Con te partirò)" #79 US

Spanning twenty five years. I can't.

You know what to do. All of the songs can get scores anywhere from 10 - 0. But seriously, anyone who gives a zero needs to think twice about their life and their choices.

Rates due via PM by April 1st.

Thanks @michael for the graphics!

And, the YouTube links will be available soon. But you've got hands, and can go there.

No and no.

I Feel Love or bust. Still influencing everyone thirty five years after its creation. What kind of genius?

[@michael.]

Oooh you changed up the title on me. I can change the graphic

[Trouble.]

The Queen of Disco.

[Br0ckk]

It's a little bit insulting to call Donna Summer the Queen of Disco. She outlasted Disco, and along with Giorgio Moroder created what has come to be dance music.

So she's the queen of DANCE. Everything in the clubs today and on radio all leads back to her.

[TakeItOff!]

Oh God, I remember "I Feel Love" used to HAUNT me way back when. I did not get it and I was just so scared by it aasfjkajf I'm a mess.

Unfortunately, I've only heard/know a few of these songs (such a deprived child!). I'll sit this one out but cheer for Bad Girls for #1 on the sidelines. Don't whip me Ace.

Yes, Ace, read us downE.

[Amaru]

I'm a sucker for 70/80's disco/dance music, so this will be my first rate ever

Let me get on this right now.

[Ace Reject]

I hope everyone can recognize the brilliance of her SAW material - This Time I Know It's for Real deserves a top ten berth, and I would not not be upset with a top five finish.

[Cap10Planet]

I might do this.

I know all of Donna's big hits, but I might have to dive into her lesser hits.

[Siya]

I love her,

[supaspaz]

That original post made me laugh out loud. Alright, Ace, I'll try and find the time to do this next week.

[BnPac]

This can be cool. I'm not really a sucker for dance music but I love her.

[huh]

Ugh yes, definitely doing this one. I love Donna Summer's music <3.

[jpsketch]

"I Will Go with You (Con te partirò)" ***** so hard even now.

[DiamondDust]

I'm in.

She's a homophobe? I thought that was all just taken out of context from a statement she made years and years ago.

[madonnas]

I've only heard half of them, but I'll get the rates in later this week.
