When I was 8-9, my dad would leave me in his basement apartment. Nothing to do but listen to the few tapes he had sitting around. Donna Summer got me through the day.
That's sad
At least you had good vibes to listen to...👍
@@thisisme3238 I loved to love it.
Nothing like a good memory 👍✨
Donna Summer was a national treasure. When she passed we lost someone who was beautiful inside and out. Watch some of her interviews. She lived a good life on her terms and left the world a better place just by being her.
Donna Summer was an international treasure.
@@aalphan that too. She spent many years in Germany and Austria and even learned the languages. She was very deep and if you want to treat yourself look up some of her interviews.
@@joelex7966 Yes I know. She was very loved in france but at the time we didn't see her much on tv, only on december 31 the time of a song as a gift to celebrate the new year, it was a great joy to be able to see her.
She's a disco queen... sucks she went through self image problems. She is very attractive always was....always will be.
Preach ! I'm 27 and I always put some kind of 70's track and love it.
Hearing her voice to me is godlike.
I went to the Oscars in ‘79 - everyone walks in on the red carpet. I walked in behind Ms Summer, wearing a stunning red sparkly dress - SO beautiful. All of these “tragic tale” videos focus entirely too much on the negative details. She and co-songwriter Paul Jabbara won for LAST DANCE best song that night. So great to see her perform it in person. No mention of her Oscar win.
You did not!
@@throwball2248 How do you know?
@@throwball2248 it’s a long story. I worked on 2 movies nominated that year (SUPERMAN and DAYS OF HEAVEN) and a friend won for cinematography) l bullshitted my way into a nosebleed seat. Donna was in front as I went in, Rachel Welsh was behind me - I thought my head was going to twist off 😎
Nope ‼️ like a good memory 👍✨ plus until today I thought 💭 it was let's dance 😂
In the 70s I was into disco I loved it still do. I was so sad when Donna died. RIP disco queen.
When????
@@christinemott2878 2012
she was absolutely beautiful
Yeah she was
Amazingly so!
OMG YES SHE WAS. ACTUALLY STILL IS.
@@andrearichardson3106 Amen.
The best female vocalist ever. Just watch her numerous live performances on RUclips and you will see she was note perfect every single time. No showy vocal gymnastics just pure control. She will forever be known as the Queen Of Disco but she was so much more.
Donna Summer is forever a Legend.
Yes, she was indeed, The Queen Of Disco. I loved that woman. And, she just wasn't sexy. She had a great voice too. Very clear and crisp.
All her music was more than awesome! Remember dancing to her many hit songs..perfect music to dance to on the disco floor, for sure...RIP DONNA SUMMER🙏✝️
She invited me to dinner as a club dj who supported her...MOST AMAZING LADY! love her!
WOWZA!!!
Aw she was so cute. I loved the song last dance.
I 🤔 thought it was lets dance 😂‼️🤷
@@fatonyalmitchell3281 That’s David Bowie
@@mysticalcreature2851 I think 🤔 I was hearing all words Wrong ‼️🤷😂 cause now I don't know... If last dance,,, or left dance.. I don't think 🤔 im thinking 🤔 about that color full white man and married Iman....
Animals are cute...Donna Summer wasn't cute she was very Beautiful inside & out!!! Donna was Beautiful, Gorgeous and very Talented, we miss you Queen! But we will always cherish & Love you Ms Summer!!!
Queen 👸 of Disco 💃🏻 I Love Her Music 🎼 🙏🏼🤍🕊
R.I.P. Donna Summer
Her work with Giorgio Moroder is the best in my personal opinion
Didn't know she went through so much beyond the beautiful exterior.
Wow I Loved her music so much back then and still do. I knew nothing about her. What a life she had. Such a talented Lady 💗 Thanks.
I was born in 1975 and my parents owned her live record, which I listened to over and over. I started out as a Donna Summer fan 😊 She was a beautiful woman with a great voice and amazing energy.
I could definitely see K. Michelle or Kelly Rowland playing her in a biopic.
Kelly, yes 👏🏾 K. Michelle “No Way.
Kelly 100% and thx for saying it
Kelly is my choice!
Yes I always thought K Michelle looks a little more like her...
Kelly Rowland pls
RIP Donna S. 🙏
Donna Summer was one of the finest female singers ever. Her husky, sensual, soulful singing style was a real treasure for the music industry. SALUTE TO THE UNDISPUTED QUEEN OF DISCO. 👌👌👍👍❤❤
Kids born in the 80s and 90s missed out on Donna Summer
I was born in 1976, a few months after Love To Love You Baby made it debut on the airwaves. 😜 I remember being a 4 year old and seeing Donna Summer for the first time on her ABC Special in 1980. Even back then, I thought she was beautiful. I remember growing up on "She Works Hard For The Money"and "This Time I Know It's For Real" in the 80s. When I turned 18 in 1994, there was this radio station in Chicago that would play non stop 70s music. On Saturday nights, they would play 5 hours of Disco music. This is how I fell in love with Donna's voice and understood her as an artist. I Feel Love was ahead of it's time (no doubt). I've seen Donna 4x in concert and she was awesome. I miss her so much.
@Promise You
Fair enough, when did you discover her?
Yess..I always song let's dance 😂 not last dance 😂 until today 🤷
Wrong! I was born in 1988 and I am a big fan!
( 1985 ) I fell in love with Donna Summer listening to my parents play records in the living room. Not all 80's babies missed out (;
I truly miss Donna Summers and her music.
donna summer was a great singer and her songs will live on i am sad off her passing in 20012 may 17th off lung cancer due to the twin tower attacks off aspestos and being 63 years old leaving behind 3 daughters and there dad and husband this is just sad richard
Absolutely Love Donna , my sadness of
Her passing , yet knowing i will see her in Heaven ! I just knew a few from Hair but never got to meet Donna .
Beautiful voice
Oh she went through so much.
god bless donnas three daughters and her husband who are still sad at her passing may she rest in peace richard
Aww..Donna was so talented and she was an amazing person. I love the fact that she was wanting a relationship with God though❤️
Me, too.
She was successful and beautiful. I don't call that tragic.
Came just for your comment, every episode if "I didn't see anything tragic" isn't the first comment it'll be the second...just for viewers 👎🏿
Exactly
@Jayson M very true
Big Bad John Apparently you didn't hear how she went through physical abuse at the hands of an excuse for a man.
@@joeymorvant161-- Apparently you didn't hear that she was successful and beautiful. I don't call that tragic.
Such a beautiful lady and magnificent singer - one of the best female voices ever
Lots of love and respect from me :')
She actually lived the kind of life many people would like to live .traveling all over the place with all kinds of different and varied experiences .the only problem with that kind of life is you don't have a solid support system which she did not have
She was not forced to stop performing love to love you baby she hated that song she said it was too sexual for a church girl to sing she never felt right singing it she stopped voluntarily
Thanks 😊 for fact check ✔️
Yes ! Your right !!!
absolutely correct,she was embarrassed with the song because it was not who she was,still it got her noted and that was the start of an amazing career.
How elegant she was in thr concerts when she was in her 50s.
Love Donna Summer and MacArthur Park ! 👍
My favorite Donna summer song is hot stuff.
She is beautiful ❤️ inside and outside
I Remember Yesterday.
We love you Summer! We wished you knew that!
Thx for the information
She was the best! I thank god for her music we had the best times ❤️ trust me she never lost any true fans I was heartbroken to hear of her passing her music will live on forever 👏🏼👏🏼🙏❤️
That time was 70s. Always dancing W her music. At the disco bar. My fav. Singer.
Until now im playing her music. THE LEGEND.
donna was my teenage years at the discos .beautiful to
She was awesome...grew-up with her music...sad she left us. RIP
Fantastic singer, such a beautiful soul, so very missed.
Jim Feldman's Village Voice article (June 83) never said Donna "AIDS is the result of your sins", also Summer never denied making the "Adam and Steve comment" , as it was made on stage during the Atlantic City Concert. This video has many inaccuracies or false statements.
Donna Summer was beautiful!
I'll never forget Donna summer for a few reasons? I loved her music, she was a true bostonian like me and I got to meet her parents at the premiere of her first movie " thank God it's friday" at the old pi alley theatre in Boston! Love to love you donna you were awesome! Jack flynn
It's so sad how unhappy she was. I think she was an incredible singer with a beautiful voice. I'm sad that she's gone.
An older Donna Summer fan here (saw her in concert in St Louis in 1977 and danced to her songs on dozens of disco floors.) Yeah, this is a very odd biography - her late 60s experiences in Greenwich Village, performing in Hair, and eventually meeting Giorgio Moroder in Germany etc. are remarkable. Donna had several gigantic disco albums after Love to Love You Baby (Bad Girls anyone?) However, this vid jumps from the early 1975 Love to Love You album cover to 1980's The Wanderer, which was her attempt to move into New Wave after the demise of disco. No mention of the songs Bad Girls, Enough is Enough, MacArthur Park, Last Dance? Were you unable to get the rights to show her major album covers? Or to use any of her music? The out-of-sequence images of her at different periods of her life (younger, older, disco, new wave - these images all jump around at random) demonstrate a lack of basic storytelling skill. So she had some relationship issues - who doesn't - that's tragic? You have 1.54 million subscribers and this is the best you can do?
I feel like the age of the reviewer or producer affects the music review or critique. You realize that the early 20 somethings reviewing something to tend look at the the woke aspect or thinking the public thought one way-when in real life it was exact opposite lmao!
To be honest, she was always on tv in the 90s. She had a really long and good career.
I love your passion for the Disco Queen. No one will understand our knowledge and passion of this iconic legend ❤️
@@karenearle5507 I was just looking over and got her Cats Without Claws vinyl album. This lady, Patti, and the Supremes set the template for all the female pop artists of today. They didn't need back up dancers and could by themselves.I think wow! It's rare to see that these days.
Amen--Well said!!
These headlines are so stupid. She had a very successful career nothing tragic about it SMH
I have all her cd
He's probably a 80s baby.
What about that asshole that physically abused her?
She tried to kill herself. That's tragic
She was a good entertainer and she had a sweet voice, so how comes we didn't hear any of her songs in this video?
Copyright is expensive if you are on a tight budget
@@paddymulligan Oh i see. So not even a few seconds of any of her songs
Donna was a beautiful person and a beautiful singer. RIP.
My favorite song by her, is Someone left the cake in the rain.
Who'd have guessed that the same guy who wrote MacArthur Park and Up, Up, And Away wrote Wichita Lineman, Galveston, and The Highwayman. Galveston, oh Galveston. I still hear your sea waves crashing. While I watch the cannons flashing. I clean my gun, and dream of Galveston.
Mine is "Hot Stuff".
LOVED HER AND HER MUSIC ❤
Wow I didn't know a lot of things and situations that Donna went through, she was a very discrete person., After watching this video, I admirer and love her even much more.
Every time I hear someone talk about Donna Summer it makes me think of Toby McGuire on SNL and the “simmer down, now” sketch.
Great music
I was one of the few who known and it was so sad.
My own wife and Moroder wife died of cancer in that same years. So sad.
Rest in peace Donna . Disco music is much better than people give credit for.
I still remember that her music duo with musical youths called Unconditional Love
Donna Summer voice is So beautiful and so talented miss her 🥰
A talented and beautiful woman...RIP
Loved her since I was a lil child in the 70s
We miss you My Disco Queen 👸Donna Summer ❤
Best voice ever donna
She had so many varied and different experiences in life that no other black woman let alone no other American woman ever experienced that made her into a very very unique and gifted person
Been a big fan of La La la love to love you. She came to Salt Lake City in’79. She was the best
She was wildly beautiful and attractive.
Nice dramatic headline. I stopped watching after 2 minutes. Donna Summer scored 14 top 10 hits, sold millions of records, was awarded 5 Grammy awards in 4 different musical genres and gave birth to 3 beautiful daughters. Her life and career was anything but tragic.
I see her story as one of triumph over many obstacles. I don't see her as tragic at all. She was a force, and she never gave in, and she never gave up. That, to me, is a triumphant story, not a tragic one. ✌
Donna was a great singer, in this so called short documentary, focus only in her struggles. Not on her success and the legacy she left, regarding her music and how talented she was.
Love to love you baby
She was a great singer
Wow,I always loved Donna,but I had no idea what she had been through.
I’m just now hearing that she said that I will always love her she’ll always be a part of my life as far as music is concerned knowing that the gay community is the one that was her biggest supporters I can’t believe she would say something like that🥺 but all should be forgiven because she brought nothing but love into this world,,,, Love to love you baby❤️ RIP QUEEN🤬❤️
She never said that and she cleared up in 1989, stop believing the lies.
Donna Summer was my first disco discovery and queen when a pre-teen. But man she had a rough life and partners. Good thing she had Sudano as husband for many years.
What people often overlook is Donna Summer was so heavily influenced by the late '60s psychedelica era
Hot, Hot, Hot, Hot STUUUFFFFF!
I ADORED her!!!!!😊🎈😊🎈
Such a BEAUTIFUL and Talented lady!
Love to love you baby 💗
I don’t wanna get hurt is such a wonderful song I love donna
I had a pleasure to dance with a legend. Very down to earth woman. Forever an icon.
I liked her
So u don't like her anymore
@@rickrolledtruth5834 I grew up
@@ricksmith2206 what? You make zero sense.
@@darquequeen2323 I liked disco as a child, graduated to more sophisticated stuff
@@ricksmith2206 Like?
I'm old, I liked some disco. I was mostly about Kiss back then though 🙏🏽
She was my Godmother 🙏🙏🙏❤️ Cher Miss her🙏
Sing with the angels Donna, and make that music soar forever
I'm amazed she stayed faithful to her last husband.
Why?
When I was about 10 years old in the mid 70s. I first heard 4 Seasons of Love. I promised myself that when I grew up i would for sure marry Ms Summer. Didn't happen of course but I've loved her music ever since. Funny enough her 80s album with Quincy is my favourite album of hers even though I hear she hated it calling it a "Quincy Jones " album. Some great tracks on that album, Lush life, State of independence, Living in America, and many others
RIP Donna Summer 🙏❤️
My favorite song from her was her remake of Luciano Pavoroti's Con Te Partiro.
Precious 💕
I'm from BALTIMORE MARYLAND...EAST SIDE to be specific...I LITERALLY 😭😭😭 when DONNA SUMMER passed yo...
Yooo anybody grew up when HBO just strated everytime movie was over donna s hot stuff would played and then u would see previews of up coming movies iam 56 yrs old everytime that song comes I rember hbo but most of all my child hood thank u donna lots of love

That's sad you are gone Donna you will be missed
This is a good video that disclosed things I never heard before ..as far as donnaf Summer making a comment about AIDS did anyone ever hear it other than this one writer for a magazine?
Queen of Disco

Her duet with Barbra Streisand, "Enough Is Enough," was iconic and amazing. Angelic White Voice: Point! Powerful Black Voice: Counterpoint! Amazing duet! Rest in God's Peace, Queen of Disco!
That was the song......
She started not at all beautiful and with the dull boring song 'love to love you' .
What she did was being able to build a very beautiful image and to improve his voice a lot and becoming a public idol. GREAT REALIZATION!!!
Have you even heard her first album? Her voice was already strong and impressive long before the song Love to Love you. You should do your research
