Once Upon A Time is Donna Summer’s sensational double-album. Known for its rich diversity, the recording is widely regarded as one of her finest. It tells the story of a modern day fairy tale through the use of electronic disco sounds. Certified Gold in the United States and Silver in the U.K., the release produced the Top Twenty singles, “I Love You” and “Rumour Has It.”

Donna Summer and her liberators have created one audience and redefined another, and this record’s four sides of dream worlds without end sometimes manipulate each audience. The candy-girl music of “Fairy Tale High,” “Queen for a Day,” and “If You Got It Flaunt It” explicitly recognizes her newly created gay audience, a daring acknowledgement coming from a mainstream pop star. As for her redefined audience of naïve young things who live in the suburbs and dream of romance, adventure, and sex while they search for identity, Summer works her music into a true-to-life Cinderella story staged as four acts of impatient pulse, delirious space noise, wish-upon-a-star voice monologues, and motion. –Michael Freedberg
