    I doubt that most of today's crop of singers could even remember all the lyrics to a great song like this....I'm so glad that I grew up during the time that artists like Donna Summer (and so many more) ruled the airwaves.......They gave our generation so many great memories, which will last our lifetime....... Thank You!!

    This version is the BEST, I am a musician, a drummer of 40 plus years, That orchestra and rhythm section is fabulous, that bass player and drummer and very good together, Donna fits right in with them, TONS of POWER there, great groove, the music of today, well just plain SUCKS, if you can even call it music, all electronic no real musicians, (cheap way out). Bring back the real music, all the Luther's, Donna's, Michael, Whitney, etc, Donna was the best...................................RIP Donna

    I saw her in LA in the latter years. Her voice was amazing. We were all stunned how beautiful and powerful it was. She commented on gaining weight ‘I was eating potatoes chips’.the audience cheered her on and she started cry. It was so moving that perhaps the latter years were a bit tougher. But it made her more human and she sang the roof off the Amphitheater.

    Lightning in a bottle. This performance far surpasses any previous version by Donna Summer or Richard Harris. The stars aligned when this performance took place and it still blows me away every time I watch this video. Every musician seen here contributed to a once in a lifetime moment. Take your life into your hands and use it, just like Donna did here. She is truly missed.

    All so called R&B artists who rely on auto tune for a living need to watch this vid a few times and understand that this is why Donna Summer's music is being played 45 years on. As a broadcaster of predominately black music I think I can assume that nobody will be listening to their music in 40 years. Today's so called R&B/Soul has become so sterile, static and homogenised that artist's voices and music sound the same. The individuality of artists has for me died some time ago. This performance by Donna Summer brought back some great memories and made me realise that I should have made more of an effort when she was alive to see her perform live. As a 17 yr old at the time and hearing " I Feel Love" for the first time was something I've never forgotten. Do yourself a favour and listen to it realising that it was recorded 43 years ago ! The world is worse off for not having Donna Summer.

    So talented. The best cover of Jimmy Webb's song. This time period allowed for so many types of music, including ones with orchestra and ones what were long by today's standards. Glad I was there to hear it. I can't even begin to name the groups that spun out this gold, from folk rock to disco to pop, to blues, Motown, heavy metal. People actually had to be able to sing and harmonize. What a time!

      Amen Sandra! God I miss those days, the era, Disco music, listening to the late Disco Queen Mrs. Donna Summers. Back in the Disco era when this song came on there was no room in the dance floor to dance! I miss the styles, back when people actually would dress up to go dancing in the Nightclubs, concerts, wedding receptions, house parties not like nowdays! Of my many, many regrets my life was never seen her life in concert back when she was alive. First time I heard her singing was back in 1977 when the song Love To Love You Baby! Back when Disco music was at It's peak and all her other beautiful, sexy songs! I keep on saying that there will never be nobody like her singing, her style of music, or anybody come close. I've listening to this song, danced to it, and also still got the vinyl records and many more if her songs in vinyl records, eight track which to me back then was a piece of garbage for who remembered the tape would get stuck and break just like cassettes! But still I miss these music, those days that came and went by so quickly .Rest in peace Donna Summers and long live Disco music forever! ❤️ Frank.
