Hot Stuff - Ralphi Rosario And Erick Ibiza 2018 Rework

Donna Summer was not a wild child in real life, but she often played a libidinous vixen in her songs. In "Hot Stuff," she's calling every guy she knows looking for some action. How did Summer pull it off? "That was easy," her husband, Bruce Sudano, told Songfacts. "She knew immediately what the character of the song was, because she was an actress who sang. She just jumped right on that and injected it with the rock and soul that that song required, quite naturally."

This disco classic was written by Pete Bellotte, Harold Faltermeyer and Keith Forsey. Bellotte co-wrote a few other hits for Summer, including "Love To Love You Baby" and "Heaven Knows." Faltermeyer had a solo hit in 1984 with "Axel F," and Forsey's credits include "Don't You (Forget About Me)" for Simple Minds and "Shakedown" for Bob Seger.

This was Summer's second #1 hit on the Hot 100; her first was her disco cover of "MacArthur Park."
