@@flappycelery oh, absolutely!! Not saying it was never popular (this is Donna Summer of course 😂), just that it’s one of those things where new media revives another piece of media that hasn’t been in the spotlight for a while. Anyway, love it!!!
Hey, the same thing brought me here Beetlejuice Beetlejuice cause I like what the hell is this song playing in the first beginning of the movie and like the first comment said this song is about to get popular
I love Donna Summer but never heard this gem until I saw the new Beetlejuice movie. I’m happy to have this looping in my head as I move through my life like a weird musical….
My mom used to play this song for me all the time as a child. 20 years and it’s still one of my favorite songs ever ❤️ RIP Donna Summer, Queen of Disco.
Connie Mahaswaren: Whitney was a very good singer but she tried to put herself on the same level as not only Donna Summer but Chaka Khan and other great singers. I'm sorry but she had the potential to be a great singer but she came along at the wrong time... the eighties...which was not as kind to R&B singers as say the 70's or the 60's.During the eighties, even great R&B singers such as Stevie Wonder and Patti Labelle kind of sold out by watering down their music to some extent. Fortunately, singers like Patti Labelle, Stevie Wonder and others had already achieved greatness by the time the eighties came along. Unfortunately for Whitney, she was just getting started when the eighties came along and was never really able to really reach her potential. Imao, Whitney lent her voice to some rather subpar songs during the eighties that were not worthy of someone with a voice like hers. This, in my opinion, diminishes her stature as a great singer. This is why I say she is not worthy to duet with someone of Donna Summer's stature.
RVL480 Van ohh thank you I’m glad you explained it to me because at first I thought you were just randomly hating on Whitney but that isn’t the case :)
My mother played her music all the time growing up as a kid, so many memories. Donna passed in 2012 and my mom in 2019, May they both rest eternally in peace.🙏
Donna Summers was an icon in my day and she still is. Kudos, Kudos. kudos to her, and what a masterful beautiful voice. I am sure she is part of heaven chior.
@@sharksport01totally disagree. Both of them had wonderful voices. As persons, I like Donna Summer a lot, never liked Whitney Houston, she was too cocky (just like Liza Minelli: wonderful talent, unbearable vanity). Again, speaking about artistic talent only, all three of them are amazing. And we are saying OPINIONS, not facts.
This song was written by Jimmy Webb and sung by Richard Harris. It became a hit in 1968. Donna did a remake of it. Richard Harris' version is really nice.
July 26th, 1981 (Mick Jagger's Birthday). I saw this lady at the Civic Center in Providence, Rhode Island, USA. What a performer. What a performance! Rest In Peace, Love.
Miss Donna was a queen and superb artist. My mom really has the best musical tastes. I was raised listening Stevie Wonder, Whitney Houston and Donna Summer in our three bedrooms appartement in Marseille, FRANCE 🥰🥰!
You'd be a fucking moron because this song was classic way the fuck before manilla luzon decided to put on her mamas heels so calm it the fuck down rupaul and her trolls are tired
Someone left the cake out in the rain. I don't think that I could take it. Because it took so long to bake it. And I'll never have that recipe aaaagggaaaaaiiiiiiinnnnn..... #cakecakecake
Oscar Montalvo, You must be awfully young. Donna Summer was a huge star, and the Queen of Disco in the 70s/80s. No, not as big a star as Houston, but hardly anyone was. She was certainly adored by fans, and I'm pretty sure the industry was happy with her, though her turn to Christian faith maybe wasn't quite so appreciated. But she worked hard for her money, and they respected that. She suffered from a boycott in the mid-80s and her career never quite recovered, whether or not she actually said some anti-gay things (she denied this, but the boycott was probably at the worst time for her career as her new record label seems to have made mistake after mistake). But she continued to have hits way beyond the length of many pop careers, and she was even more appreciated in Europe. Even much later she had hits on the dance charts and so on. Very few artists have sold as many records, either. from Wikipedia: LaDonna Adrian Gaines (December 31, 1948 - May 17, 2012),[1] widely known by her stage name Donna Summer, was an American singer, songwriter, and actress. She gained prominence during the disco era of the late 1970s. A five-time Grammy Award winner, Summer was the first artist to have three consecutive double albums reach No. 1 on the United States Billboard 200 chart and charted four number-one singles in the U.S. within a 12-month period. Summer has reportedly sold over 230 million records worldwide, making her one of the world's best-selling artists of all time. She also charted two number-one singles on the R&B charts in the U.S. and a number-one in the U.K.[2] Summer earned a total of 42 hit singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart in her lifetime, with 14 of those reaching the top ten. She claimed a top 40 hit every year between 1975 and 1984, and from her first top ten hit in 1976, to the end of 1982, she had 12 top ten hits (10 were top five hits), more than any other act during that time period. She returned to the Hot 100's top five in 1983, and claimed her final top ten hit in 1989 with "This Time I Know It's for Real". Her most recent Hot 100 hit came in 1999 with "I Will Go With You (Con Te Partiro)". While her fortunes on the Hot 100 waned through those decades, Summer remained a force on the U.S. Dance/Club Play Songs chart over her entire career.
Tina Arena lmao. there's a reason they invited an obscure aussie to share a stage with her live and it's because literally nobody else could belt next to Donna Summer and not make a fool of themselves. the list grows shorter and shorter every year
A truly underrated vocalist. One of the best, in my opinion. Such beauty and power in her vocals without trying to show how powerful it is. I just love Donna Summer.
@@DXTRChannel I know that and you know that. But when they mention the great vocalists, it’s always Whitney, Mariah, Celine… who are all great. But Donna Summer blows 2 out of those 3 away, and not even Whitney could match Donna’s live performances!
Late in 1978, this hit was everywhere. Donna's vocals are so exceptional she shines on this song making it her own. The orchestral disco beat and pulsating vibe work up to a never to be repeated finale! RIP to a fine artist.
I grew up on DS. My mom used to play it on her record player religiously. I was raised on absolutely fabulous music. This stuff instilled in me the visions that made me want to become a musician, my ultimate calling in life.
So in love with this amazing lady...I was listening to her music in the 70s...and I still get chills hearing her sing...I think from all fans visiting this site...you were/are amazing..we love you Donna
This is more than a masterpiece; it's truly a phenomenal piece of heavenly song sung by the best of the best of the last century, our most adorable and loving Donna Summer.
OH MY GOD - What a beautiful and dashing song, you had posted so many beautiful pictures of Madam Donna Summer. It is very nice and graceful presentation. I appreciated your efforts in this respect. Certainly it was great rendition of this Pretty Lady. I am really thankful and grateful to you regarding posted of fantastic upload. Just because of your upload, I am watching this song after 30 years. Thank you very much for shared beautiful post and also keeping the memories alive through rare upload.
What a masterpiece. Donna Summer is one of a kind and I miss her and the beautiful music she had total command of. Gorgio Moroder And Donna Summer were made for each other. RIP Ms Summer, you are truly loved and missed
So was I. No disco-fan at all, but great interpretation. Always liked the song and just found the original by Jimmy Webb and Richard Harris' hit version.
Omg just love this song!! Gives me goosebumps when I hear it, as I was so young in the 70’s and couldn’t enjoy discotheque playing disco, love Donna and her disco songs, ❤
Not going to lie was surprise they decide to put the disco version during the ending credits of Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. This and Bob's Burgers just made me love Donna Summer even more.
There are some bad things happening in the world. This song and this singer is so good, it reminds us all that there are so many good things in the world. The song and Donna's voice is stuck inside my head, I keep hearing it over and over. .
YES, Dean, it was cool and fabulous, you just had to select your events and locations! A huge city just has a bit of everything, but you can definitely avoid the bad stuff!! I did. And this song still gives me goosebumps!
In the late 70s I was a teenager. Donna summer was my first crush I was simply in love with this woman her beauty was beyond believe and her talent was out of this world all I can say is that I’m approaching my 60s And she still my first love may you rest in peace and thank you for all the memories you left us.
Look up the composer of the song. When questioned about the "silly" lyrics he stated "I wrote about exactly what I saw, first hand, when I was at McArthur Park."
Lo. Máximo está bella canción con la incomparable Donna Summer bravo donde te encuentres bella Dama gracias gracias gracias que tal registro Voz . .Bendiciones eternas .
Que acompañamiento que guitarras todos buna orquesta Ojalá se siguiera escuchando Estos tipos de concientes descansa en Paz Querida D. S. Se te añora si es así bella..gracias eternas y que vivan Los fabulosos Años 80 si señor Eran fabulosos gracias .
How did the algorithms send me here ! What a singer - What a song - The high notes she hits gives me goosebumps still and I've heard this track so many times - Timeless, flawless and classic - pure raw power and control - Never could this song be replicated - Thanks!
Unbelievable rendition! Not much for the disco era of music but this... It's the only one that stands tall among so much. And Donna Summer is quite an experience without anyone holding a candle.
Brilliant. A few months ago,naively, I thought Donna's only hit was "I feel love" because it was the only I'd ever heard. Slowly I've discovered more of her songs, "bad girls" "hard for the money" "loves unkind" "this time i know it's for real" "last dance" to name a few and now this gem. One of the most underrated singers ever. RIP Donna Summer. You gave us the gift of your wonderful voice, talent and music. I only wish I could of seen you live. Gone too soon.
Unbelievable. Deeply emotionally moving. A transcendent masterpiece of a musical composition & vocal performance par - excellence. This is next level musical artistic brilliance!!
Such a brilliant voice!! I remember listening to " I FEEL LOVE" in the back of my dad's car (as a teenager) while they were in the pub I bought the album "ON THE RADIO " later ..with all Donna's hits.
Spring was never waiting for us dear It ran one step ahead As we followed in the dance MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark All the sweet, green icing flowing down Someone left the cake out in the rain I don't think that I can take it 'cause it took so long to bake it And I'll never have that recipe again Oh, nooooo I recall the yellow cotton dress Foaming like a wave On the ground beneath your knees The birds like tender babies in your hands And the old men playing chinese checkers by the trees MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark All the sweet green icing flowing down Someone left the cake out in the rain I don't think that I can take it 'Cause it took so long to bake it And I'll never have that recipe again Oh, nooooo [Instrumental Interlude] MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark All the sweet green icing flowing down Someone left my cake out in the rain I don't think that I can take it 'Cause it took so long to make it And I'll never have that recipe again Oh, nooooo
When you think of women that could blow (really sing) back in the day. Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight, Chaka Khan and Patti Labelle immediately come to mind, along with Whitney Houston. But people forget that Donna Summer could hold her own with the best of them. This song here shows you how good she could hit those high notes. RIP Donna Summer (Queen Of Disco).🙏🙌🙏
Best music for me and my first date.. we danced to this and fell in love all the way through the record.. we loved it and you Donna Summer xx thanks xx
Anyone who was of drinking age in the late seventies in clubs knows very well how magical it was when this song came on dancing. My memory is palpable right down to the smells, people's faces in a blur to the beat under the spinning disco mirrored globe. Intoxicating in every way.
You know, 'I Feel Love' used to be my favourite DS song (EVERYTIME it came on the radio, I used strut my stuff, as best I could, for a 9 year old). But, the more I heard this, the more I liked it. Especially, the bit from 1 m.44 s to 2 m 24 s. Just, a, FABULOUS, cover song. RIP, DS - Your songs will live, forever!

I can't stop thinking about it. One of the most fun movie experiences I've had in a while
Hey, the same thing brought me here Beetlejuice Beetlejuice cause I like what the hell is this song playing in the first beginning of the movie and like the first comment said this song is about to get popular

I like this version of MacArthur Park better
been loving this song way before the 1st bettlejuice lol

Le pauvre...
Her vocals on this song are outstanding
They are!
Agree! Love her!
I noticed there were 2 dolts who disagree. Obviously don't hear very well. Her vocals on this amazing. Not opinion, fact.
Wallace but richard harris had the best version of this song! She puts no emotion into it and the music is too fast!
All her songs. Total and utter control all the way. Never goes out of range.
If ever a disco song could truly be called a masterpiece, it’s this one.
The six minute promo version is even better.
Oh yes. You are so right!
Yet it wasn't originally a disco song at all
Donna was better than the disco era.
thank you
We will never have another Donna.
I love Donna Summer but never heard this gem until I saw the new Beetlejuice movie. I’m happy to have this looping in my head as I move through my life like a weird musical….

I thought I was the only person here because of Manilla XD
Outi finland i Love Mac arturs Park. Sorry i, m speak english very littele.
My mom used to play this song for me all the time as a child.
20 years and it’s still one of my favorite songs ever ❤️ RIP Donna Summer, Queen of Disco.
Me too. I was SO CONFUSED as a little kid as to why someone would leave a cake in the rain!!
Amen!
She's still alive stupid
Beautiful song
This song really makes me feel in another dimension. A masterpiece.
So true🙌🙌. Blessigns my dear✌️
Play it when the mushrooms gain the sky
cHECK OUT :
Donna Summer / MacArthur Park (Mr P's Edit from 'MacArthur Park Suite') [UNOFFICIAL]
Listen to Richard Harris's version. To say he was not a classic trained singer like her and Mariah Carey he blows them into the weeds.
@@frantrictantric
Yeah I Love his Original Version too
My hippie sister used to play it
I read that Donna and Whitney wanted to do a duet together. Unfortunately, it never happened. But how cool would have that been!
What is this, my friend? Whitney, in my opinion, doesn't get to her feet...
Whitney Houston? She is unworthy of a duet with Donna Summer!
RVL480 Van how is she unworthy? Wtf

Donna Summer had one of the most underrated voices ever
This lady was absolutely classic.......never a voice like hers since.....
Try Ms. Cherilyn Sarkistan in her rendition of the Abba song Fernando.
Donna sang, Whitney screamed. Fact.
A music legacy for infinity.
the BEST ever
@@sharksport01totally disagree.
Both of them had wonderful voices.

This song has one of the most creative metaphors I’ve ever heard. It’s pure genius
I remember the 1982!!!RIP IN PEACE MY IMPOSIBLE LOVE!!!
This song was written by Jimmy Webb and sung by Richard Harris. It became a hit in 1968. Donna did a remake of it. Richard Harris' version is really nice.
I think it's her best ❤️❤️❤️❤️
No it was the shortest song ever untill Donna got hold of it
How can u be this great????
She sang like an Angel and was touched by the GODS.
A unique voice not many have been born with better ❤️❤️❤️
I'm here because of Manila Luzon

And don't talk like I have no idea this is a classic WAY before Manila Luzon lipsynched it.So...yeah.
What the hell or who the hell is Manila Luzon?
Wow Donna you stunned the Disco floors with this, R.I.P legend!!!
Must be lovely for a songwriter to give their song to someone else and just know it's going to be in safe hands.
The original is by Richard Harris. The writer of the song specifically asked him to perform it, and he truly did it justice.
70's music is the best but there is good in everything if you just look for it, even today!
Reminds me of Dolly and Whitney ❤️
You mean write a awful shit song the shortest song ever and give it to someone who turns it into something great

This is one helluva classic song!!!
ruth solpino and to think this is actually a cover of a Richard Harris song
En Prise the Richard Harris version is amazing
This song makes me think of how cool NYC must have been in the late 70's.
dean b Honestly....NYC was a dirty, broken, dangerous place. NOTHING like today!
New York in the 70s was a literal hellhole in a bad sad way
YES, Dean, it was cool and fabulous, you just had to select your events and locations! A huge city just has a bit of everything, but you can definitely avoid the bad stuff!! I did. And this song still gives me goosebumps!
lots of cocaine
If you don't want o be considered stupid, Bob, you might want to delete this remark!
Stunning voice with such stunning beauty. Gone far to soon
a disco queen and a great voice, a good sense for the song as well, love this!
She was far more than a Disco Queen. How many seventies disco singers survived Disco? I'll wait.
Can't forget her...growing up ,there was no one better than hee
In the late 70s I was a teenager. Donna summer was my first crush I was simply in love with this woman her beauty was beyond believe and her talent was out of this world all I can say is that I’m approaching my 60s And she still my first love may you rest in peace and thank you for all the memories you left us.
the cake is not a cake its a symbolic of a lost love
To be fair, if someone put my cake in the rain, that would end that love...
WE KNOW!
Look up the composer of the song. When questioned about the "silly" lyrics he stated "I wrote about exactly what I saw, first hand, when I was at McArthur Park."
Walt Kowalski ; true, you are right, but the cake also had symbolic meaning so it’s meaning can be interpreted as both literal and figural
Al
It s about the end of a love affair
When music was music and singers SANG….
Most brilliant and beautiful female artist of all time!!

She was so much more than the queen of disco. She was a breakthrough artist in every sense of the word.
Wow this song takes me back!!!!
She will Always be the Queen of Disco 💖💖💞🕺🏻🕺🕺
Donna Summer absolutely N1...the queen of disco music ❤❤❤❤❤

a 70s classic from the woman with the most powerful voice we ever experienced. I am so glad I lived during this period
Superb song ( Thanks Jimmy Webb) by a superb artiste ❤ R.I.P Donna xxxx
Sing with the angels Donna....we love and miss you!
Im a "Yougin" (21 years old) and I love this song. There are some really good oldies out there. :D
If you love music continue listening to oldies I guarantee you won't be disappointed
Same here I know song from my dad when I was a kid I'll never forget it
How did the algorithms send me here ! What a singer - What a song - The high notes she hits gives me goosebumps still and I've heard this track so many times - Timeless, flawless and classic - pure raw power and control - Never could this song be replicated - Thanks!
Unbelievable rendition! Not much for the disco era of music but this... It's the only one that stands tall among so much. And Donna Summer is quite an experience without anyone holding a candle.
Brilliant. A few months ago,naively, I thought Donna's only hit was "I feel love" because it was the only I'd ever heard. Slowly I've discovered more of her songs, "bad girls" "hard for the money" "loves unkind" "this time i know it's for real" "last dance" to name a few and now this gem. One of the most underrated singers ever. RIP Donna Summer. You gave us the gift of your wonderful voice, talent and music. I only wish I could of seen you live. Gone too soon.
Unbelievable. Deeply emotionally moving. A transcendent masterpiece of a musical composition & vocal performance par - excellence. This is next level musical artistic brilliance!!
Such a brilliant voice!! I remember listening to " I FEEL LOVE" in the back of my dad's car (as a teenager) while they were in the pub I bought the album "ON THE RADIO " later ..with all Donna's hits.
Spring was never waiting for us dear
It ran one step ahead
As we followed in the dance
MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, nooooo
I recall the yellow cotton dress
Foaming like a wave
On the ground beneath your knees
The birds like tender babies in your hands
And the old men playing chinese checkers by the trees
MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, nooooo
[Instrumental Interlude]
MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet green icing flowing down
Someone left my cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to make it
And I'll never have that recipe again
Oh, nooooo
I love this song,..what it means really is way deep,..
Thanks for that!!
Love Donna Summer. I could listen to this song on a loop forever. Queen Donna.
2 amazing voices. Whitney Houston and Donna Summer.
When you think of women that could blow (really sing) back in the day. Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight, Chaka Khan and Patti Labelle immediately come to mind, along with Whitney Houston. But people forget that Donna Summer could hold her own with the best of them. This song here shows you how good she could hit those high notes. RIP Donna Summer (Queen Of Disco).🙏🙌🙏
U aint never lie
Amazing and unforgettable Donna! This cover has become a life marker for many of my generation!
Best music for me and my first date.. we danced to this and fell in love all the way through the record.. we loved it and you Donna Summer xx thanks xx
Anyone who was of drinking age in the late seventies in clubs knows very well how magical it was when this song came on dancing. My memory is palpable right down to the smells, people's faces in a blur to the beat under the spinning disco mirrored globe. Intoxicating in every way.
To me, the disco scene in the 70's is beyond description or comparison. But, you did a fantastic job. I was THERE just for a moment. 🎉
Don’t forget the strobes ….!
Manila Luzon's Park!
luiza 80% disgusting 😍😍😍😍
Best Lip sync RDR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the memories Donna Summer and thanks for making a disco version of MacArthur Park. Long live the queen of disco.
RIP, sister Donna. Wanna dance with you in Heaven!
Dave Wollenberg Would like to but there is no heaven and no hell. Only the most evil god would create a hell to burn beings.
Great song ..... Great selection for Tim Burton's beetlejuice beetlejuice
The queen.
RIP Sweetheart. #1, Billboard, 1978. Her best and one of the greatest remakes in the history of music.
You know, 'I Feel Love' used to be my favourite DS song (EVERYTIME it came on the radio, I used strut my stuff, as best I could, for a 9 year old). But, the more I heard this, the more I liked it. Especially, the bit from 1 m.44 s to 2 m 24 s. Just, a, FABULOUS, cover song. RIP, DS - Your songs will live, forever!
Still sadly missed Donna. But never forgotten. Good night & god bless.😢❤
