1. Touch Me in the Morning (1979) Marlena reinvents the Diana Ross original in a way only she could manage, with soaring disco flair. Thanks again to @geodrew.bsky.social and @olgalovesyuri.bsky.social for the 70s treats.

2. Don’t Ask to Stay (Until Tomorrow) (1977)
#1 tie really; This was my intro to Marlena on late night tv in the ‘80s; opening the 70s film Looking For Mr Goodbar; a fave haunting, searing, exhilarating lament Marlena nails. youtu.be/qvnZyfAcptY?...

3. Love Dancin’ (1979) Album: Take a Bite!
Marlena has fun with this euphoric, wild fun disco track; a backlash was in full swing sadly muting its impact (#49 US dance) amongst the disco deluge at the close of the 70s.

4. Rhythm of Love (1978) Album: Acting Up
Marlena’s smooth and liberating vocals on this sweet pop tune are irresistable. Curiously, the more conventional tune “Places” was released as the single.

Name an epic, sweeping and cinematic song in any genre of popular music. #CinematicSong #CinematicPopMusic

(Arguably the best Cali tribute song)
