"I Love You" is a song by American singer and songwriter Donna Summer from her sixth studio album Once Upon a Time (1977). It peaked at number 10 on the UK Singles Chart and reached number 37 on the US Billboard Hot 100 in 1977. The song also peaked at 29, 10, and 24 in Canada, Norway, and Spain respectively.[1][2]

Background

Originally featured on her album Once Upon a Time, it was edited in length for release as a single. The album is a double LP concept album telling a modern-day Cinderella rags-to-riches story. "I Love You" is featured toward the end of the album when the main character comes face to face with the object of her desire and they declare their love for each other.

Record World called it a "swirling, melodic disco tune."[3]
