迪斯可女王〔唐娜桑瑪〕的東山再起之作──歐洲舞曲冠軍名作──〔This Time I Know Its For Real／這一次我知道是真的〕

What would I have to do
to get you to notice me too
do I
stand in line
one of a million
admiring eyes

Walk a tightrope way up high
write your name across the sky

Im going crazy just to let you know
youd be amazed how much I love you so baby
when I get my hands on you I wont let go
this time I know its for real

Should I write or call your home
shout it out with a megaphone
radio, TV news
got to find a way
to get my message to you

To say I love you with a neon sign
anything to make you mine

Im going crazy just to let you know
if I wait too long for you I might explode baby
Ive been around the block enough to know
that this time I know its for real

Oh baby
this time, this time, this time, this time
oh baby
this time, this time

Walk a tightrope way up high
write your name across the sky

Im going crazy just to let you know
youd be amazed how much I love you so baby
when I get my hands on you I wont let go
this time I know its for real

Im going crazy just to let you know
if I waited too long for you I might explode baby
Ive been around the block enough to know
that this time I know its for real

選擇與英國最紅的三人製作群SAW合作〔Another Time, Another Place／另一個時空〕大碟
終於鹹魚翻身　再獲商業市場肯定
SAW的作品雖然旋律甜美　但由於公式化　一向是被視為沒有靈魂的泡泡糖音樂
但唐娜桑瑪不愧是實力派歌手　在她的精彩演出下
〔Another Time, Another Place／另一個時空〕頗受好評
首支單曲為２月底發行的〔This Time I Know Its For Real／這一次我知道是真的〕

這是首典型的歐洲電子流行舞曲　由桑瑪與SAW 合寫旋律討好

加上唐娜寬厚黑人嗓音的演繹　更加迷人

此曲首先在英國得到＃３　拿到銀唱片（＞２０萬張）　專輯成為金唱片（＞１０萬張）

並在歐洲暢銷（挪威＃３　愛爾蘭＃４　荷蘭＃５　法國＃６　瑞典＃１２　德國＃１５　澳洲＃４０）

接著〔This Time I Know Its For Real／這一次我知道是真的〕紅回美國　讓她打進睽違已久的Top １０

在流行榜得到＃７　舞曲銷售榜冠軍　舞廳播放＃５
成人抒情榜亞軍　銷售並超過５０萬　成為唐娜第１２張金唱片
（由於計算時間／標準的差異　前面１１張都是賣過"百萬張"的金單曲）
讓她風光東山再起（雖然時間有點短暫）

從這首歌曲可以看出當時的舞曲正處於一個轉換期
進入８０年代後　迪斯可並沒有完全消失
反而以轉換形式／名字成為Dance-Pop 繼續在流行界發展
到了末期已轉化成這類型的歐洲Dance-Pop／Hi-NRG
不過也可以從此曲身上嗅出同源的House音樂即將主掌９０年代的舞池
Anyway, 這是一首相當動聽的舞曲佳作
有著迷人的旋律與黑人嗓音的傑出詮釋
喜歡舞曲的人應該都會愛上這支歌曲
推薦給各位
