Mistaken Identity (с англ. — «Ошибочная личность») — четырнадцатый студийный альбом американской певицы Донны Саммер, выпущенный 23 августа 1991 года на лейбле Atlantic. В новой пластинке Саммер продолжает экспериментировать с различными музыкальными жанрами, на этот раз альбом записан в урбанистическом стиле. Однако альбом становится одним из самых провальных релизов в карьере Донны Саммер, он не попадает ни в альбомный чарт Великобритании UK Albums Chart, ни в американский Billboard 200. С альбома было выпущено два сингла: «When Love Cries», который достиг 77 строчки в сингловом чарте Billboard Hot 100[3] и 18 строчки в Billboard R&B charts[4]; и «Work That Magic», был издан синглом на территории Великобритании, где занял 74 строчку в UK Singles Chart.[5]Текст в блоке "Читать" взят с сайта "Википедия" и доступен по лицензии Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike; в отдельных случаях могут действовать дополнительные условия.
