Berzelii Park. Source: discogs. Although it seemed ridiculous at the time, "MacArthur Park" was covered by many other artists over the years and even the different versions became hits. But it was Donna Summer who had the biggest hit with her disco style rendition of "MacArthur Park" in Summer glamorized the originally somber song with her polished voice, and repetitive synthesizer sounds fused with vestiges of the tune's psychedelic elements.

Her initial version was eight minutes long which would be included on her minute melody "MacArthur Park Suite" , but was chopped in half to gain more radio traction. The new song was now played at clubs and became a dancing favorite as it reached no.

The effervescent instrumentation created a disco sensation as a song now full of life and energy making listeners want to dance instead of dissect the lyrics. Who knew all of this success would come from a song that was criticized so heavily by critics and listeners as one of the worst songs ever?
