With the exception of the ballad "Can't We Just Sit Down (And Talk It Over)", all the songs were written in collaboration by Summer, Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte.

Some of the labels chose to release the ballad "Can't We Just Sit Down (And Talk It Over)" as the first single, with "I Feel Love" as the B-side.

Previous disco tracks had usually been backed by an acoustic orchestra, the use of synthesizers would later develop new sub-genres of music such as dance and techno.

"I Feel Love" firmly secured Donna Summer's place as the leading female artist of disco music.

Around the same time as the album's release, Summer would further her reputation as a serious and credible artist when she was asked to record the theme song for the film The Deep by famous British composer John Barry.
