I had the honor of meeting her back in 1979. I was doing security for another celebrity. I was a nobody, but she treated me kinder than most people I’ve ever met in my life. People need to know that she was a very kind, sweet person. And beautiful as inside as she was out. God bless you Donna
In awe of this lady so full of love and spirit. What a loss.. 💞 TG for memorabilia n sweet find memories ....or I'd have a very sad existence. Music is what makes our hearts beat bless you all !!
That's profound!! I just felt lucky to join my friends in 1999 on her VH1 tour at ravinia and outdoor amphitheater just north of Chicago. She did not disappoint and I felt lucky to have had the opportunity to see her perform.
Some of these Divas today could learn something from Donna. No ridiculous vocal acrobatics, just a fantastic voice with power, range and soul. God, we miss you Donna!
All that I've seen now, have to wonder if she was 100% female? There's soooo many now that are questionable! Hate on this comment if you will, I just speak my mind! Look into the castratos of the past, just saying! Always loved DS, just now feeling we were deceived, with many others....ie: Pink, Whitney, Celine....etc~
@@613Tracee girl bye you sound ridiculous...all of these women you have named have given birth...so yes they are 100% female....the question is Tracee are you????? In the 21st century there is a lot of weirdness going on but let's not associate that with Ms. Summer, Whitney, or Pink.
Wow~Thanks for that info as I never knew Jimmy Webb wrote that song for Donna as another of my favorite songs was also written for Glen Campbell=Galveston~!!
@@RickaramaTrama-lc1ys Actually he wrote it that song at the request of Richard Harris in 1968. Richard had starred in the 1967 musical "Camelot" as King Arthur. Harris decide he try his luck in the muscial industry by by releasing LP Album, "A Tramp Shining" in August 1968. So Albus Dumbledore had pipes too! Link th-cam.com/video/-GhK4X-hMKA/w-d-xo.html
My beautiful wife passed away 3 years ago from cancer, only 48 years old, and she absolutely adored Donna - for all the beautiful cancer sufferers around the world......you go hard, and from New Zealand, I wish you all the very best.
I lived in the Middle East and Disco was the main source of entertainment. We were contract workers making $150/month only, and we hung out with some of the stock traders and Royal Family members in the bar.
Tina Turner, Whitney Houston,Aretha Franklin,Diana Ross,Gladys Knight,Olivia Newton John...Today: Beyoncé,Rihanna,Shakira,Dua Lipa,Lady Gaga... Before they put their incredible voices,their souls,their hearts. Now they put their asses...Music and real artists are dead. Is my opinion... Supongo que con ese nombre y apellidos eres español como yo,pero lo he puesto en mi paupérrimo inglés para que cualquiera pueda entenderlo. Como echo de menos estos artistas con mayúsculas,esas canciones maravillosas y esa época en la que el arte y talento no estaban reñidos con la comercialidad y tampoco había necesidad de tanta coreografía ridícula ni meneo de culo. Yo me he criado musicalmente en los 80 y adoro esa década porque hasta lo más malo superaba con creces lo más bueno que pueda hacerse hoy en día...
Riposa in pace Donna, un mito x tutta una generazione che ha ballato ed è cresciuta con le tue musiche e le tue stratosferiche performance. Grazie di tutto, ancora oggi riascoltato mette i brividi
There's def. A great band or 2 on the other side . Can you imagine in some beautiful garden of flowers n trees ,💜 then a spotlight goes to Donna,she's in a long tight fitting gown of her choice , n She starts singing Luv to luv you baby n everyone is there just hypnotized seeing her (age 32 is usual) appear n depart like a phantom .. Could it be magic is next !! And the crowd goes wild. And then ....u wake up w a grin thinking what an amazing dream...She owned McArthurs Park. ,have no idea what's up w baking a cake .. And it's wet n lost the recipe !! Who cares it's a great song !
As a white young man I was really into Donna Summer, I cried when she died. She gave us so much pleasure in her talent I know she is now entertaining God. RIP Donna. At 57 yrs old I find myself listening to to music of my youth, thank you Donna for my memories. Love you.
I was s street artist on La Cienega in Los Angeles in the mid 70s when I 1st met Donna Summer. OMG! Its my idol and had been dancing to her disco hits for years. She bought 3 of my large paintings and asked if I can deliver it to her Ihome on Benedict Canyon. OMG. A couple of months later I saw her at her concert with friends at Universal. Unforgettable! I gathered all my friends programs and mailed them and I asked if she would please autograph the programs. Got it back in 2 weeks. Such a classy lady. Few people will remember that she sang the Oscar winning song, Last Dance, in a movie she starred in. Gone too soon. I wonder how her daughters are doing.
Donna Summer is and will always be the queen of disco. She is an amazing singer . I was lucky to have been a teenager in the disco Era and it was the best !! Music was the best back then.
An absolute legend. There is and never will be another voice like hers. She sang FULL VOICE, and could belt out a note like no one else. She will be remembered through her music and incredible talent for all time. My beautiful, dear friend... I miss you so.
I didn't know she passed. A big chunk of my childhood died along with her. She was my favorite female singer of all time. Used to listen to her 45 records in my room, singing into my hairbrush like I was her! RIP Donna...such a magnificent voice!!
OMG!! No one else could ever do this song justice like Donna! The most Beautiful rendition that I've ever heard!! I'm crying right now!! Just Beautiful! ♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏🙏
What a voice! I will never forget the day she died. Of course, she didn't parade around with her illness looking for sympathy while she was alive. She is singing in front of the beautiful throne of God for eternity. Rest in Peace, Donna...
I was shocked at how little acknowledgement she received from the industry after she passed away. That made me sad. She was legendary in multiple ways...a trailblazer who's music rocked the nightclubs, radio stations, and music charts during much of the 1970s and early 80s in a very big way. When Disco ruled there was no one who was consistently better or bigger than she was. Of all the big voiced divas there are three of them that stand out above the rest: Dame Shirley Bassey, Whitney Houston, and Donna Summer. All three are blessed and gifted beyond words, but Donna stood out as a person who never let money, fame, or the industry rob her of her faith. If you've never seen her, watch any of the concerts she did towards the latter years before she got sick. She was so mellow, and she was always talking about how The Lord enriched her life. Yes, she will rest in peace until The Lord brings her back to life again. And he will. The Resurrection was the whole point of Jesus' ministry.
I had the privelege being in the audience when this was recorded and i never heard an artist with such a powerfull voice ,she blew the whole audience away ,i will remember this my whole life because she impressed me so much
The most fabulous disco singer of all generations. She was incomparable singer, she was simply the best. This concert in Belgium shows your importance and magnitude for all people in the world. We can see orchestre, chorus, back vocals, the music arrangement, all this is fantastic. And finally, your powerfull and magnificent voice.
What a voice. What a song. We heard this on and on and on way back in the early eighties, when the Aids crisis began, our gay brothers were dying like flies in the heat, everyone turned their back on us and we had nothing left but our favourites who stood by us with their music to lift us up. Thank you for this - forever.
Donna ...ci hai lasciato un repertorio immenso....hai cantato tutti generi musicali....sei stata fantastica......ce'ancora tanta vita per stare insieme a te e alla tua musica...grazie.
Ok did anyone else notice the date this was done, and when she hit that first note, get chills on chills? Geez ! RIP Ms. Summer, we won't EVER let you die ! Thank you for everything !!!!!!
My daughter met her on an internship at MTV for Save The Music-Divas Live during her college education in music. She was so gracious and lovely. I rec'd an autographed CD which I cherish.
She was a big enough presence not to get lost in that monstrous stage show.
5 ปีที่แล้ว +12
Her 56yr old voice is better here than when she sang the original studio version as a twenty-something. Phenomenal octave range never faltered. One of the most spine-tingling performances I've ever seen/heard.
One of the most complex songs to sing - over 6 minutes long , layers, orchestrure, backup singers, live - and Miss Summer pulls it off like it is fun, no problem. BTW, watch her sing 'Last Dance' on Johnny Carson in 1978.
I'm certain there's no other singer who could duplicate this beautiful live performance. I come back to this time after time, and each time it's brand new. It's pure Donna.
How the hell can anyone top this made classic songs that will never be forgotten they should make a movie about her her kids should remake her songs living legend at her time died too young but her music lives on
Best female vocalist in the world, along side Gladys Knight . Donna Summer was such a wonderful , beautiful lady in my opinion. God bless you Donna Summer . THANKYOU x .
scheckdj ..... She was not “ Underrated”..... sadly it was pure Ignorance that made you think she was “Underrated”.... she was Phenomenal. Rest In Peace Princess.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I met my (now late) husband in the 1980s. He was a teen in the disco era and loved his Donna Summer records, always playing it on a Friday evening in his tiny apartment. I would go to his apartment and we'd go to the movies or just go walk the streets at night in our city. Walking towards his apartment coming out the escalator, I'd hear Donna Summer coming from his apartment. O what I'd do to relive those times. We were together 18years when he passed away in 2005. I hope he is able to tell her in heaven what joy she brought to earth. RIP both angels.
Her voice is 100% unique with resonance of a brass horn. Unlike other vocalists whose voices deteriorate with age, Donna's voice actually got better. There will never be another Donna Summer.
My family moved to Thousand Oaks, CA in 90's. I was in a Trader Joe's in Westlake Village and she came walking down the aisle with a shopping cart. She had a lovely coat on.
As a limousine chauffeur in Los Angeles, I am glad to say that I actually met the lovely Donna Summer. This production video shows how special the song MacArthur Park truly is. It can be classical with the strings, jazzy with the horns, and operatic with voice. Music, my friends is your true partner. Through and through.
My all time favorite female singer! I was fortunate enough to see her in concert one time, never forgot that time. RIP Dear Lady! Nobody can compare not then, and certainly not now. RIP!
I baLL every time ...writing this with tears in my eyes right now... she was Beautifully talented.. when are they going to put her on the top ✨👑✨ where she belongs above all these others who cannot even compare to her .. Queen 🎶🎶forevahhhhh I will keep writing this until I die .. I lOve her so much
People didn't realize what a great voice Donna Summer had until this song & "I Will Go With You (Con te partirò)". Ms. Summer, I miss you so much. Your voice was the soundtrack for the best years of my life. Rest Easy, Dear Lady.
Donna is one off our great disco queens what a voice and stage appearance no one can take her crown thank you for your voice & songs and just for you being Donna!❤
La DIVA.du disco..... Tu es partis bien trop tôt, j ose espérer que tu fais danser les anges du paradis, que tu mérites, comme ce fût ici bas.... Paix à ton âme !!! ❤️👍
I live in Atlanta, Georgia and recently got a chance to see Summer.... The Donna Summer Musical!!!! I laughed and cried. This is such a wonderful Play honoring the great Diva's life. I hope someone will produce this show in VEGAS!!! It would be a SMASH Hit!! The Ladies that played Ms. Summer were AMAZING!!! I believe Ms. Summer would really be pleased.🌹🌺💐🌷🎵🎼 Her Music is the sound track of my Middle School and High School years. 1977 through 1983. I will always be a Donna Summer Fan. We miss you so much Ms. Summer. RIP.❤️ Gone to soon.💔
When I heard she'd passed away I genuinely got a lump in my throat, that is extremely rare for me. I always felt I had a "Connection" with her as she always seemed to have a hit song for every stage of my life growing up in The UK. When I hear one of her songs I'm instantly transported back to a time & place that I vividly rememer. She was one of the greatest female artists there ever was or is. I miss her so much.

I had the honor of meeting her back in 1979. I was doing security for another celebrity. I was a nobody, but she treated me kinder than most people I’ve ever met in my life. People need to know that she was a very kind, sweet person. And beautiful as inside as she was out. God bless you Donna

Your very lucky.
In awe of this lady so full of love and spirit. What a loss..
💞 TG for memorabilia n sweet find memories ....or I'd have a very sad existence. Music is what makes our hearts beat bless you all !!

Well said, sir!
I.p.o
We certainly do 😢
Very aptly and rightly said: I share 101%!
Or getting sexual on stage!
Wearing vf basically nothing!
What a beatiful woman she was. I keep a big space in my heart for her.
So I do too.
She is never mentioned alongside the great female vocalists, but she definitely should be. She had an outstanding voice.
My favourite female vocalist of all time
Agreed 💯

She sure did! I.love her especially in this performance!
I miss her so much
Your sentiment will be repeated for decades to come my friend
My beautiful wife passed away 3 years ago from cancer, only 48 years old, and she absolutely adored Donna - for all the beautiful cancer sufferers around the world......you go hard, and from New Zealand, I wish you all the very best.
Sorry for your loss
I'm so sorry for your loss. It must still be hard. I adored Donna too, she would have been 72 yesterday.
Diden my heart goes out to you 🙏
Years late, but hold it and keep strong my friend!
i feel sorry for your loss it might be hard to go through it
Donna Summer , Is definitely 1st class the greatest voice ever ❤
No auto tune, backed by real musicians. This is how it’s done!!!! There will never be another Donna Summer. Absolute vocal perfection 😊
Eterna rainha das discol
Totally agree ♥️
U said it the best. Hands down wow
Perfection!! Hell yeah.
Absolutely
The world is a poorer place without her sparkling voice.
You're not kidding
My sentiments exactly bless her ❤️
Totally agree 💯, she was a great voice and very talented for sure ..
😢😢😮
Such a beautiful person and had such an amazing voice.
"THE BEST OF TIMES WHEN DISCO WAS KING"
I lived in the Middle East and Disco was the main source of entertainment. We were contract workers making $150/month only, and we hung out with some of the stock traders and Royal Family members in the bar.
This is the time when there were real singers
Tina Turner, Whitney Houston,Aretha Franklin,Diana Ross,Gladys Knight,Olivia Newton John...Today: Beyoncé,Rihanna,Shakira,Dua Lipa,Lady Gaga...
Before they put their incredible voices,their souls,their hearts.
Now they put their asses...Music and real artists are dead.
Is my opinion...
Supongo que con ese nombre y apellidos eres español como yo,pero lo he puesto en mi paupérrimo inglés para que cualquiera pueda entenderlo.

AGREE! She was incredible and her voice never paled as she got older. Saw her live years after the disco era. Was still incredible! Miss her!

Her voices ❤❤❤❤❤
I'm here in July of 2023. I will never grow tired of this, ever. 💜

She passed away in 2012, a victim to cancer.
She says with us through her videos ❤❤❤
Ana, you're absolutely right...forever grateful of Donna and her Superbly Gifted musical talent.❤
Amen🙏✨
Her voice got better with age. Like a fine wine, deeper, richer and that unique tone and power. Miss her
She died way to soon with lung cancer.
She was the best i have seen her three times in concert in New York
Beautiful and effortless!! Fabulous to hear this again in 2024.

Joseph, I share your Thoughts and Sentiments. ⚘️♥️
She did give us so much pleasure, it's true. I certainly felt bad myself, like a tugging at my heart, when she died.

Saw bh exhibit during my pretty woman days. Lol.❤. Thanks!
Put her in the R&R Hall of Fame. It's not R&R if Dolly gets in.....Donna left an incredible mark in MUSIC in the 70s. RIP, Donna ❤.
Indeed ❤
How wonderfully Donna Summer sings this song. She is definitely one of the best female vocalist.
Agreed, still the best to me
Second only to Aretha.Whitney, Mariah and Beyonce couldn't carry this woman's shoe strings.A truly great talent.
Absolutely!
@@melvinsims5379 no way is she second to Aretha or Mariah. She has a power and versatility that none of the ladies you mentioned have
Donna Summer is and will always be the queen of disco. She is an amazing singer . I was lucky to have been a teenager in the disco Era and it was the best !! Music was the best back then.
Great singers can effortlessly communicate emotion. This lady is a masterclass.
👍 agree. Either u got it. Or u don't. And Donna has it. In spades
❤❤❤❤
Weird. She is a mess of cocaine fueled fun. Get out of the house sister.
An absolute legend in many ways!❤
An absolute legend. There is and never will be another voice like hers. She sang FULL VOICE, and could belt out a note like no one else. She will be remembered through her music and incredible talent for all time. My beautiful, dear friend... I miss you so.
Exactly
Very underrated singer that never got enough praise
Scott Simpson my favorite singer from the 70s forward... I miss her!
+BUSTY69 Yes so many put Whitney Houston on a pedestal but for myself Donna was better.
I didn't know she passed. A big chunk of my childhood died along with her. She was my favorite female singer of all time. Used to listen to her 45 records in my room, singing into my hairbrush like I was her! RIP Donna...such a magnificent voice!!
Her and Whitney were miles ahead of other singers of that era
They gave the song all it asked for and didn't overdo it.
What a beautiful piece of art. The whole thing.
I loved this performance.
R.I.P. Donna. We won't see anyone like you again in THIS universe...
OMG!! No one else could ever do this song justice like Donna! The most Beautiful rendition that I've ever heard!! I'm crying right now!! Just Beautiful! ♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏🙏

There will never be a singer as meticulous and artful as Donna Summer. She made the 70's+ special for me!
People didn't realize what a great voice Donna Summer had until this song & "I Will Go With You (Con te partirò)".
Ms. Summer, I miss you so much. Your voice was the soundtrack for the best years of my life. Rest Easy, Dear Lady.
Love that song, too. 💜
BROKE MY HEART WHEN SHE DIED,,,,,,LOVED TO DANCE TO HER MUSIC IN THE 70S
It did something to me too, when I heard about her passing away. It's like her singing was too valuable for me!
Donna is one off our great disco queens what a voice and stage appearance no one can take her crown thank you for your voice & songs and just for you being Donna!❤

poque et quelle voix puissante. Je l'écouterais pendant des heures.
When Donna Summer takes the stage you are in for a treat she never
disappoints you.
She is one hell of a performer.
Love her and always will.
I live in Atlanta, Georgia and recently got a chance to see Summer.... The Donna Summer Musical!!!! I laughed and cried. This is such a wonderful Play honoring the great Diva's life.
I hope someone will produce this show in VEGAS!!! It would be a SMASH Hit!!
The Ladies that played Ms. Summer were AMAZING!!!
I believe Ms. Summer would really be pleased.🌹🌺💐🌷🎵🎼 Her Music is the sound track of my Middle School and High School years. 1977 through 1983. I will always be a Donna Summer Fan.
We miss you so much Ms. Summer. RIP.❤️ Gone to soon.💔
😮I used to have a yellow cotton skirt I'd wear to the park when this song was on the radio! ❤ I miss dancing, kept me thine!❤
Rest In Peace 🙏 🪦 there will never be another like you Donna Summers/Tina Marie 2 Queens in Heaven
When I heard she'd passed away I genuinely got a lump in my throat, that is extremely rare for me. I always felt I had a "Connection" with her as she always seemed to have a hit song for every stage of my life growing up in The UK. When I hear one of her songs I'm instantly transported back to a time & place that I vividly rememer. She was one of the greatest female artists there ever was or is. I miss her so much.
I totally agree with you! No special effects, real musicians and his voice. It was also part of my life.
That was just truly amazing .
we shall never have this recipe again - so sad RIP Donna you were loved
Miss Donna aged just like the finest wine being served to the GODs
