    Donna has 3 daughters. The youngest, Amanda Sudano Ramirez (pure and angelic voice, just like her mom), sings with her husband Abner Ramirez and they go by the name JOHNNYSWIM. A few years ago, when their oldest son Joaquin was still a toddler, they showed in an instagram video where they were playing this song and immediately upon hearing that beautifully silky voice over synth and strings, Joaquin (dancing around in the living room) stops in his tracks and with excitement, in his squeaking little voice, said 'Gamma?!' Oh! My heart! It melted. He never got to meet his grandmother, but he knew her through her music. I thought that to be a beautiful connection his mother and father helped to give him that will be as timeless as the song itself. That one moment has stayed with me since and now every time I hear this intro, I remember it.

    • @JimmieJamOfTheDay
      @JimmieJamOfTheDay 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Sometimes, one can mistake her because she could fool you. The Wanderer, Nightlife, and Eyes are song examples of this. Normally, when she sings in her usual belting voice, that's when she's most identifiable. Last Dance, Hot Stuff and She Works Hard For The Money are some examples of this.

    Before Celine Dion, Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston was Donna Summer’s powerhouse voice. Her ability to effortlessly hold a note with such strength behind it was incredible. It is hard to believe that she suffered from crippling stage fright. You never would have known by her amazing performances.
    Two of my favorite songs of hers are On The Radio and Heaven Knows.

    Donna Summer was the biggest female artist of the late 1970's and probably the only artist to have 3 double albums to hit number 1 back-to-back-to-back. She also replaced herself at number one on the Billboard singles chart, replacing "Hot Stuff" with "Bad Girls" in 1979. Although she was a huge star, her incredible voice has been highly under-rated and she doesn't get the same kind of props as a Whitney Houston or Mariah Carey. Great reaction!

    Although the media called her the Queen of Disco, the LATE, GREAT Donna Summer could song ANY genre of music. If you saw her live performances, she could belt out notes EFFORTLESSLY. Not long before, she passed away from lung cancer (never smoked) at age 63, she could sing all of her hits in the original key. Her voice never changed, a true gift from God.

    She sang this in the Movie "Thank God It's Friday", which she was a young singer trying to get a break and have them play her music in the clubs. She busted out on stage and started singing "Last Dance" and the rest is history. The song won an Academy Award for Best Song in a Movie. Do "Dim All the Lights", longest note held by a female artist to hit Top 10 (#2) 1979 (I was 20 OMG, LOL), it's at the beginning of the song. It's tied with "All Out of Love" by Air Supply, 16 seconds.

    Donna Summer is undoubtedly the Queen of Disco and left us all far too early.

I think the maturity in her voice makes it all the better. :)

    Donna Summer (R.I.P.) had the pipes and gave us some of the greatest songs...this being one of them! There is a longer version of this that contains another verse. You should check out the movie Thank God It's Friday (1978). She stars in it as an up and coming singer just trying to catch a break and her chance is to sing THIS song live for the dance contest that this club is having. The Commodores are also in it. Another is Teri Nunn who was the lead singer of Berlin. She's not a singer in this one but is trying to win the contest.

    Donna Summer was the queen of disco for a reason. Her voice is angelic and those beats are sinful. She had the disco jams and Diana Ross had the soulful disco songs. Two powerhouse performers.

    Not sure if you will remember, this was part of Selena's disco medley that you reacted to. Donna Summer won the Grammy for Best Female R & B Vocal Performance. It would also start a string of 9 consecutive top 5 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

    Every male was in love with Donna Summer. How could you not,she had the look that made you look twice and then you throw in this young woman's amazing voice that has such an innocent angelic voice that starts off soft and then like the queen of disco she is she gives you this song that is upbeat. She still was doing live performances in Los Vagas until her death and she never lost her beautiful face and voice. R.I.P. Donna Summer (Queen of Disco)

  • @martinzelaya2927

    Just to see young people feel like we did the first time hearing her sing the song makes me so happy. And yes, she had a pure voice , it was innocent time. People really look forward to going to a club hoping for a story book romance. The last song was usually a slow jam, your last chance.

    Thank you for the great reaction! I saw Donna sing Last Dance live in 1978 and again in 2011 and she hit and sustained every single note. Listen to Donna at 4:20 go from head voice to chest voice and into sustained falsetto. AMAZING!!! Donna's range never changed, a rare creature, the greatest singer ever, her talent was off the charts among female singers. Besides her amazing vocal talent, she is the only artist to have won Grammy awards in four different music categories, Rock, dance, R&B and Gospel. Donna could sing any song anywhere anytime acapella. Her beauty, her grace, her talent, her confidence all rolled into one package in one very classy lady.

    Donna Summer recorded a Christmas CD in 1994 called Christmas Spirit. It's a wonderful release, but check out her version of The Christmas Song. Beautifully sung and a really good arrangement.

  • @sergiosalas1596
    @sergiosalas1596 2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    Thank you for your wonderful reaction. Last Dance (from the 1978 film Thank God It's Friday which featured Donna) was not only a commercial success but also received critical acclaim winning the Oscar and Golden Globe for Best Original Song from a motion picture and a Grammy for Best Rhythm & Blues Female Vocal for Donna. Donna was the undisputed queen of disco and a truly gifted vocalist with a solid theater background who could sing any genre. She had great vocal control which is why she could pull off singing sexy, sultry anthems using her falsetto or rock-flavored bangers with her sweet yet powerful voice. She remains one of the best-selling female artists in pop music history. By the way, it's Donna SUMMER which is an anglicized version of her Austrian husband's surname. People always mistake her surname for Summers because during her prime, there were two other popular women with the same surname but spelled differently. One was Suzanne SOMERS (Chrissy Snow in Three's Company) and the other was Jaime SOMMERS (The Bionic Woman played by Lindsay Wagner).

  • @joiedevivre2005

    Donna Summer was THE Disco Queen! Her vocal range was phenomenal. She dominated the late 70's. I would def recommend you check out more of her songs: -"I Feel Love", "Love to Love You Baby" (which was banned on some radio stations because it was so risque'), "She Works Hard for the Money (a def female power anthem), "On the Radio", "Bad Girls", "McArthur Park"... just to name a few.
