She was the first artist to have three consecutive double albums reach the top of the US Billboard 200 chart and charted four number-one singles in the US within a 12-month period. She returned to the Hot 100's top five in 1983, and claimed her final top-ten hit in 1989 with " This Time I Know It's for Real". She claimed a top-40 hit every year between 19, and from her first top-ten hit in 1976, to the end of 1982, she had 12 top-ten hits (10 were top-five hits), more than any other act during that time period. Summer amassed a total of 42 hit singles on the US Billboard Hot 100 in her lifetime, with 14 of those reaching the Top 10. Summer returned to the United States in 1976, and more hits such as " Last Dance", her version of " MacArthur Park", " Heaven Knows", " Hot Stuff", " Bad Girls", " Dim All the Lights", " No More Tears (Enough Is Enough)" with Barbra Streisand, and " On the Radio" followed. There, she met music producers Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte, and they went on to record influential disco hits together such as " Love to Love You Baby" and " I Feel Love", marking Summer's breakthrough into international music markets. In 1968, she joined a German adaptation of the musical Hair in Munich, where she spent several years living, acting, and singing. Influenced by the counterculture of the 1960s, Summer became the lead singer of a psychedelic rock band named Crow and moved to New York City. She gained prominence during the disco era of the 1970s and became known as the "Queen of Disco", while her music gained a global following.
