“Love to Love You Baby” is a song by American singer Donna Summer from her second studio album Love to Love You Baby (1975). Produced by Pete Bellotte, and written by Italian musician Giorgio Moroder, Summer, and Bellotte, the song was first released as a single in the Netherlands on June 1975 as “Love to Love You” and then released worldwide on November 1975 as “Love to Love You Baby”. It became one of the first disco hits to be released in an extended form.
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame named it one of the 500 Songs That Shaped Rock and Roll, Summer’s only selection on this list.
Originally released in November 1975, the song became an international disco smash. In the U.S., it became Summer’s first US Top 40 hit, spending two weeks at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in February 7 & 14 1976 being held off the number one spot by Paul Simon’s “50 Ways to Leave Your Lover” and logged four weeks atop the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart, as well number three on the Billboard Hot Black singles chart.
In the UK, upon release in January 1976, the song reached #4 on the UK Singles Chart in spite of the BBC’s initial refusal to promote it. They also refused to play it. As a result of the success of the song, Summer would be named “the first lady of love,” which labeled her with a sexually oriented, fantasy image from which she would struggle to free herself.
This U.S. 12″ was released in a uni-pack styled gate-fold picture cover. The 12″ was designed specifically for Valentine’s Day 1977.
