"Dim Lights, Thick Smoke (and Loud, Loud Music)" is a country song written by Joe Maphis, Rose Lee Maphis, and Max Fidler. It was originally recorded in December 1952 by the bluegrass duo Flatt & Scruggs , and later released by Joe & Rose Lee Maphis in 1953 as a single.
The album features two new recordings: "Show Me Heaven" and a cover of Donna Summer's "Dim All the Lights", the latter which was released as a single in late spring 1995 and became a Billboard Top 40 Dance hit. Remaining tracks were taken from her 1993 album Over My Heart, which had been largely overlooked by audiences.
The song’s original title was simply “Enough is Enough,” which didn’t fit the theme of Streisand’s Wet album, in which every song had something to do with water. So the songwriters changed the title and added the introduction: “It’s raining, it’s pouring, my love life is boring me to tears.” [ 3 ]
The album alternated four energetic up-tempo songs with five ballads, including one of the few songs written solely by Branigan, "I Wish We Could Be Alone". " Gloria ", an Italian love song recorded in 1979 by Umberto Tozzi and successful in several European countries, was released as the album's second single.
In 2013, the song was remixed by Laidback Luke for the Donna Summer remix album Love To Love You Donna (it was also remixed by Ralphi Rosario and Frank Lamboy), which was released to dance clubs all over America, having a successful peaking at No. 1, giving Summer her first posthumous No. 1 and her twentieth No. 1 overall.
