Background [edit]

Past 1975, Summer had been living in Deutschland for viii years and had participated in several musical theatre shows. She had also released an album in Holland entitled Lady of the Night (1974), written past Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte and produced by Bellotte, which had given her a couple of hit singles. She was however a complete unknown in her home country when she suggested the lyric "Dearest to Honey Yous Infant" to Moroder in 1975. He turned the lyric into a full disco song and asked Summertime to record it. The full lyrics were somewhat explicit, and at starting time, Summer said she would only tape it as a demo to give to someone else. All the same, Summer'south erotic moans and groans impressed Moroder so much that he persuaded her to release information technology equally her own song, and "Love to Honey You" became a moderate hit in the Netherlands.

In an interview in 1976, Summer responded to a number of questions that she claimed she'd been asked about the process of recording the song: "Anybody's asking, 'Were you alone in the studio?' Yes, I was lone in the studio. 'Did you touch yourself?' Yep, well, actually I had my hand on my human knee. 'Did you fantasize on anything?' Yes, on my handsome beau Peter."[5]

International release and reception [edit]

A tape of the song was sent to Casablanca Records president Neil Bogart in the U.S., and he played it at a party at his home. Impressed with the track, Bogart continued to play it over and over all night. He later on contacted Moroder and suggested that he make the rails longer - possibly as long as 20 minutes. Withal, Summertime again had reservations; she was not sure of all of the lyrics. Nevertheless, she imagined herself as an actress (namely Marilyn Monroe)[6] playing the part of someone in sexual ecstasy. The studio lights were dimmed so that Summer was more or less in complete darkness as she lay on the floor.

The terminal recording lasted over xvi minutes, and according to the BBC, independent 23 "orgasms".[6] By that point, the song was renamed "Dearest to Love Yous Baby". It took upwards the unabridged outset side of the album of the same name, and edited versions were also plant on seven" vinyl.

Originally released in November 1975, the song became an international disco smash. In the U.S., it became Summer'south showtime US Top 40 hit, spending two weeks at #two on the Billboard Hot 100 chart on February 7 and 14, 1976,[seven] being held off the number one spot past Paul Simon'southward "fifty Means to Leave Your Lover" and logged four weeks atop the Billboard Trip the light fantastic Club Songs chart,[viii] also number three on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs nautical chart.[9]

The song reached number 2 in the American charts and was largely responsible for the development of the twelve inch single."[13]

Donna Summertime was forced to stop performing "Love to Dear Y'all" live when, "Riots broke out [...] [She] was in a tent in Italy, five,000 men, almost no women, and was doing 'Beloved to Love You, Babe,' adequately scantily clad, and the guys got and then wrapped up that they began to push button the stage back. And [she] had to run off the stage, to [her] trailer out the dorsum. And they came to the trailer and started to stone it.
