After the massive success of “Love To Love You Baby,”

Casablanca struggled a bit to keep the momentum going for Donna Summer.

Finding the next hit wasn’t that straightforward.

One of the records that helped rebuild that run:

👉 “Could It Be Magic” (1976)

Her take on the Barry Manilow classic.

Didn’t reach #1… but still climbed to #3.

And more importantly, it kept her on the dancefloor radar.

You can hear the transition.

Still rooted in that early disco sound… but already refining the formula.

👉 Do you prefer the Manilow original… or Donna’s version?
