I Feel Love: The Collection

Nothing to dislike.

While I love and appreciate Donna Summer as an artist (as well as the opinions of those who agree), let's focus on this particular release, instead of the merits of Donna's accomplishments, which by this point, have been firmly well established.As a "greatest hits" collection, this package offers nothing new and is riddled with problems:1) As some others have mentioned, this compilation is far from complete. There's just too much missing here, even if you excuse the omission of Donna's work for labels other than Universal.2) This set has supposedly been remastered... Really? Either that's a completely false statement or the individual responsible needs to find another line of work. For evidence of this, just listen to the opening of "Dim All the Lights" or worse yet, the Patrick Cowley remix of "I Feel Love". I could have done a better job using GarageBand!3) Errors: Just one example, but there are others as well. How about "Heaven(s) Knows" as one of the listed songs; incorrectly mentioned both on the back of the case and in the accompanying booklet. Then there's "Sunset People" and "Our Love" offered up on Disc 2 and presented under "12-inch and Extended Mixes", neither of which is true. These are the same two album versions we've been listening to since 1979.4) And finally, the included photos are [again], nothing new and of very poor quality, with the front cover being the sole exception.On the positive side, this release does offer a nice cover-shot of Donna, along with the very difficult to find original single versions of "Rumour Has It" and "Unconditional Love"; nearly impossible to find anywhere else on CD. But aside from that, there's not much more here that hasn't already been presented numerous times before, and in a nicer array of configurations.With so much of Summer's material left untapped, especially on CD, this becomes just another attempt to cash-in on her success with very little time and money invested in the delivered product. How 'bout a singles box containing all of Donna's hits and hard-to-find B-sides? Or the original 12" dance remixes from the 1980s; "Love Is In Control", She Works Hard for the Money", "Unconditional Love", "Dinner with Gershwin", and "This Time I Know It's for Real", just to name a few.Having said that, as a die-hard Summer fan, I purchased this set knowing full well the limitations of its content, but I never expected such a sloppy job in the overall presentation. I do realize this is a budget release, but it's always a disappointment when yet another opportunity to "get it right" falls far short of one's expectations.Enter at your own risk...

So, here's another short changed 'greatest hits' package trying to cash in on Donna's music and her untimely passing of last year. No, I am not thrilled with the 'short changed' collection because IF another 'greatest' package was needed, full length and 12 inch length songs should have been the standard. Also, songs like This Time I Know It's For Real, and selections from her last studio album, Colors are sadly, sadly missing. BUT ... the upside to this collection is the Patrick Cowley mega mix of I Feel Love, which makes it worth getting this CD, perhaps.Track Listing1. I Feel Love2.

Love the tunesBrings back wonderful memories

Always a fan of Miss Summer, especially the early Casablanca recordings, this CD is a must for any serious fan

Super fast shipping.. worked great

Should of could of would have been the title song of not I Feel Love, but I Feel Good. Either way this 2 cd album may have something you've missed over the years that makes you feel Good or Love.

A great collection for any music enthusiasts.What can I say Donna Summer was the Queen of pop Disco style.What a beautiful voice.2 cds really worth it.I highly recommend this product

先に買われた方のレビュー見て、このCDを買いました。ドナサマーのベスト物は何種か持ってますが、このCDにしか収録されていないVERSIONがあるらしく、コレクターとしては押さえないわけにはいきません。久々に聴いてなんか新鮮でした。彼女の新譜が聴けないのは残念ですが、もしかしたらまだまだレアな曲があるのかも？レア曲ばかり集めたアルバムでないかな～。
