"No, this is not a remake of Boby Vinton's signature song !
Melody of Love is one of a string of Dance Music tracks recorded by Donna Summer since her last studio album from 1991, Mistaken Identity. In this case Melody of Love was one of 2 new tracks included with the 1994 Greatest Hits Collection, Endless Summer.
Melody of Love follows the framework of a Donna Summer classic. That being a slow, ballad intoduction, that kicks into a high energy dance anthem. Her voice shines to new heights, and she once again showed her contemporaries at that time who the REAL Diva is.
Included here are a number of mixes with the Classic Club Mix, and the original track my personal favs.
Also included here is a version of her classic, On The Radio, and a track from her oustanding Christmas Spirit album, The Christmas Song.
Don't we all just "Wanna Be Loved"

....and a bit of Donna Trivia, back in the mid-70's when Donna was just starting out, one of the first network TV shows that she guest appeared on was an episode of the Bobby Vinton Show."
