HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS UNTIL TODAY? Den Harrow Vs. Tom Hooker Dons of Disco

GRACE JONES SIGNATURE SONG WAS NOT ORIGINALLY HERS

Refreshed link in comments sectionHere's another told post I'm brining back.

The vocalist for La Vie En Rose was meant to be Teresa Wiater.  Produced, arranged and remixed by the mighty Tom Moulton in 1977 it has become one of the definitive disco re-make classics.  His muse Grace Jones knowing a good thing when she hears one convinced Tom to give it to her.  The rest made history as it crossed over to pop all over Europe and other parts of the world.

 Teresa unfortunately fell into the depths of obscurity.  Although she managed to have one minor disco hit in 1979 with Once and For All.  Grace on the other hand.....

ULTRA RARE TERESA WIATER UNRELEASED VERSION
or how about the Donna Summer version?
DONNA SUMMER'S ROSE from 1993

So which version is better?

And for those of you curious about the Edith Piaf original from 1945.

For fun in the zip I threw in the Nancy Martinez version.  She's a chanteuse from Montreal who had a few cute dance hits in the 80's under several different monikers.  LA VIE EN ZIP

Right by the Moon by K. Barre (Giorgio Dolce)

Another perfect example of my beloved genre of Italo.  Right by the Moon came out in 1984 on the Italian label of Many records.
