Rumour has it - Donna Summer

'Rumour has it' was a single from Donna Summer's 1977 album 'Once upon a time', a concept album that tells the 'fairytale' story of a girl who goes from rags to riches. This song was included towards the end of the album, when the main character hears that someone is 'looking for a girl like me' and hopes that the man in question is someone she has liked for some time.

One of the verses in the album version was edited out for the 7" single. It reached number 22 in the Dutch Top 40 and number 19 in the UK singles chart.

Found: Any old time, Amsterdam, January 30, 2010
