"Love's Unkind" is a song written and produced by Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte, with lyrics and vocals by American singer and songwriter Donna Summer. It was recorded for the Donna Summer album, I Remember Yesterday (1977), which combined modern disco beats with sounds of previous decades. "Love's Unkind" was released as a single in Europe in November 1977, reaching number three on the UK Singles Chart,[2] and number 32 in the Netherlands. It entered the Irish Charts on 5 January 1978, spending six weeks there and peaking at number two. Though never released as a single in the US, it topped the Billboard dance chart as part of the I Remember Yesterday album, as at that time entire albums could count as one entry on that particular chart. The lyrics are of high school crushes and love triangles.
