Unconditional Love (Donna Summer song)

"Unconditional Love" is a song recorded by Donna Summer and the British group Musical Youth, released in 1983. The song was written by Michael Omartian and Jay Graydon, and produced by Michael Omartian.

The song was featured on Summer's eleventh studio album, She Works Hard for the Money. It reached number 43 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States and number 9 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart.

The song is a mid-tempo pop ballad featuring a prominent synthesizer melody and the contrasting vocal styles of Summer and the child singers of Musical Youth. Lyrically, the song explores the concept of unconditional love, specifically the love between a parent and child, and the power of love to overcome adversity. Musical Youth's contribution adds a youthful and hopeful perspective to the theme.

While not one of Summer's biggest hits, "Unconditional Love" remains a well-regarded track in her discography, often remembered for its sentimental theme and the collaboration with Musical Youth, who had previously achieved international success with their reggae-influenced hit "Pass the Dutchie." The song's themes resonate with listeners and contribute to its lasting appeal.
