Great song. It does "borrow" quite heavily from Donna's "Love To Love You, Baby". It goes so far to actually include her title in the song sung by the backup vocalists. It also employs damn near the same bassline from Thelma's "Don't Leave Me This Way". Oh well, what the hell.



Did you know that "Love Hangover" was recorded by two other artists before Diana got her hands on it? It was recorded by The Fifth Dimension and Sylvester (!) and it flopped both times.Then,in 1976 Diana recorded a version that went straight to the Number One position.

Yep, because most of the musicians who played on Thelma's Don't Leave Me song are playing on Diana's record!

I can dig it.
