ONCE UPON A TIME is one of their most wide-ranging efforts, a double-album modern-day fairy tale that truly only makes sense when listened to as a whole, rendering Summer's inter-song narration and Moroder and Bellotte's use of repeated musical elements much more effectively. Of course, this didn't really help the album reach its dance-floor audience; it was a comparative flop, with the single \"I Love You\" barely cracking the Top 40. In retrospect, however, ONCE UPON A TIME has become a firm fan favorite, with the anthemic \"Queen for a Day\" and the funky-yet-symphonic title track among Summer's most beloved songs.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: R\u0026amp;B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 01\/12\/1987\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Donna Summer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44582459015401,"sku":"CRJ16Y-VDHV-00","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/donna-summer-once-upon-a-time_NaGHC_7868c39c-3173-4945-9108-56d7fbc241be.jpg?v=1758957256","url":"https:\/\/www.vibinvinyl.com\/products\/donna-summer-once-upon-a-time","provider":"Vibin' Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
