Question
The ballad "one night only" as done on Dream girls I believe was an original dance/disco hit in the 80's. Can you confirm and let me know who the original artist was.

Answer
Hi,

Your answer is as follows from Wikipedia.

In the context of the musical, "One Night Only" is performed twice in succession, as differing versions of the song - a soul ballad by the character Effie White and a disco version by her former bandmates Deena Jones & the Dreams - compete on the radio and the pop charts.

Experience

Zameer Vahanvaty is one of the most passionate fans of Classic Rock that I have ever known in my life! He probably has in his vast music collection, every single song of all the great artistes from the Sixties, Seventies and Eighties. If he finds out that there are songs that he does not have,he makes it his business to get them as soon as possible. In fact, he has been responsible for me to have heard some of the latest works of the veterans of Rock. These are not as easily available as the popular artistes of today! I hope he continues this crazy passion of his for all times to come and he will always have my undying support. I can only wish that there were more people like him!
