I don't get why people keep commenting to point out "no autotune". There is tons of modern music that's not done with autotune. Are all of you not able to find it or something?
@Jay Smith just better Talent back in the 60s 70s and 80s. Most of the singers today all sound the same I'll take Aretha Franklin Patti LaBelle Donna Summer Barbra Streisand Linda Ronstadt excetera excetera over today singers
Whats so strange abut it? May you stop believing old War propaganda of a racist german Culture. We had several black stars here in Germany. And it was absolute normal. I grew up with that.
I understand that there is a language and cultural barrier between most European and American cultures. If you'd use your eyes, you will see the awe. Perhaps if that was the case, European history may not have been so bloody.
Saw her live twice. Without a doubt, the finest vocalist I have ever heard. Such a powerful unwavering voice. No one today comes close to her talent. She is sorely missed. Love to love you Donna!
It's funny the fact that when she's talking with the interviewer she looks uncomfortable and nervous, but when she starts singing, she calms herself down, she enjoys the moment...
She was a shy person by nature. I heard that when recording “Love to love you baby” she asked Giorgio to get rid off everyone in the studio. Shy person but a great singer.
@@kaimauracher6758 He made doofy questions about the cost her appartment in Munich and tjat she is so rich ro pay enoufh taxes. .it was unconfortable it was hee private life. In other interviews also after her 60 yeara she spoke still fluently german.
People just don’t realize actually how many talented people there was back in 50’ 60’ 70’s and 80’s. If you couldn’t sing because there wasn’t technology just God gifted talent.
Perfect in 1975 after hearing Donna summer i wanted to be a dj thanks to her I was a dj for 30 years I loved playing her music the dance floor was always full she was a big part of my life and still is it was a sad day when she passed but I'm sure she's singing along with the the other angels now ❤️
It would've been awesome if Donna Summer had released some of her hits in German since she spoke the language so very beautifully. Rest in peace Donna. It's been almost six years since we've lost you.
Donna looking stunningly beautiful, and just seconds after speaking, stands up and launchs into perfect relaxed vocals then slowly walks downstairs to the stage whilst continuing to sing and talk to the camera! Just unbelievably talent ed. I wonder if the producer from that show ever looked back and thought we shouldn't have faded her out early. Truly missed - Love you Donna ❤
Donna Summer when she sings this song it sounds perfect no matter what year she sang it. Donna will always be the number one female singer of all time. Rest in peace Donna and thank you for all the memories in my disco dancing party days.
Fascinating relic (for want of a better word) from mid 70s culture - she looks elegant, sings gorgeously, and the whole video is a priceless example of top culture of the day. Even the interviewer’s jacket - the right way to do 70s fashion. I’d have worn it in a second.
She just gets up and sings....she's that good ....just raw talent ....this is live ..it's not mimed ...I think Donna sounds better live then studio ..and thats a rare talent....I love her .. Melanie 33 🎤❤️🌈💋💋
@@markevans2280 I know, right? Even her concert dresses are so humble and yet she is so amazing! No changing of hundreds of costumes for every song like today's artists. She was something..
She just barely opens her mouth and power thunders out of it.its as if she knows if she opens her mouth to wide we would be blown against a wall,she has to keep that powerful voice in check.i was born in 1963 and its so unsettling that so many singers i admired are now gone.prince,michael Jackson, george Michael,mary Wilson,aretha franklin,Natalie Cole,Luther vandross, to name a few and i just realized i didnt even need to write their whole name cause we know who they are just from their first name.
Let me make this clear. Donna Summer eclipses them ALL. YES all of them. She is hands down in my humble opinion better than Aretha, Mariah, Celine,Whitney, Chaka khan, Patti, Tina Marie, you name it. Since her burst upon the music scene, Ms. Summer had such a unique, translucent, crystal clear, resounding voice with legendary range, and unlike those I mentioned and others I haven't, Ms. Summer didn't STRAIN or force her voice. It just flowed with such an other worldly projection and resonance that belied adequate description. She is the ONLY one whom I've heard who sounded 110 percent and more, PRECISELY as her studio recordings. The ONLY other female singer who accomplished that was none other than Barbara Streisand. Outside of that no one else belongs in the same zipcode mate, with Donna Summer. I will ALWAYS believe this.
Perfectly said. Effortlessly. You never saw her strain her voice. Later when she couldn’t hit the notes she didn’t say “Let me hear you sing it” like everyone seems to do now! She would work around it.
What a wonderful life journey for both Ms. Summers and Ms. Jones to have live and work in Germany and France at such a time, not to mention to learn the language . . . wonderful memories . . .
Just AMAZING. The amazing video quality... the beauty of Donna in her prime, still a little shy on a set... the absolute perfection of her live voice. Tears well up in my eyes when I watch this. I miss her so much...
Thanks a BILLION for posting this extraordinary piece of video! So great of you for sharing! Danke eine MILLIONEN für dieses außergewöhnliche Video! So großartig von dir zum Teilen!
Wow. Amazing to watch her work through layers of distraction, cultural, linguistic, racial, geographic, the stares, and THE STAIRS, lol, to connect with the song, and bring it. Damn.
This was what was supposed to happen. The Three Degrees traveled and entertained globally bringing their look, sound, persona and culture with them. In doing so, they subtly reminded the world how much we share in common despite clear differences. When a person becomes multi-lingual you will never see the world in the same light ever again as you gain insight to the inner-workings of a culture. From an early age, I love hearing someone sing in English when their birth language is German. The phrasing and tone is unique and distinctive.
I've had the good fortune of seeing her sing live and she had such a powerful sexy voice. Love to love you catapulted her into the stratosphere of startdum and oh what a career she had. RIP beautiful Donna Summer.
Wow, great quality... no lipsync, who knew 1976. where did you find this gem? Thank you! It's funny, I awoke this monday morning here in Florida and looked at my reminders on my laptop and this was the first thing on the list. and it was Magic. I felt as if she was calling me, I did meet her for a brief moment when she was at the height of the disco era. It took me back in time. I do wish she was still around but, hope she's in a better place. If there are angels and a heaven I'd like to be her friend someday.
Danny boi2 I was so touched to read what you wrote. I have a big oil painting of her in my lounge and still listen to her all the time. I dont think there has been anyone that had such an incredible voice. She makes me feel better even if the song is a sad one. What an unbelievable talent and youre so blessed to have met her!
Good Lord! Donna was so special!! Perfect tribute to Barry Manilow! She didn’t try to out perform him with her iconic voice! His version remains the best!
⭐⭐⭐ Donna Summer ⭐⭐⭐ 🎙🎙🎙Thee Pop Singer🎙🎙🎙 Always delivers superbly in her live vocal performances. As the person below me stated sounds pretty much like the original recording. Donna Summer was truly 🔻One A Kind🔻 ⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘
Grea authentic singer , and one of the best voices. There's a sadness about her here though, then I see this is 1976 the year she got divorced and I saw an interview where she said she felt so bad about the divorce and it really depressed her, yet she sang through her sadness.
Unique voice. Raw talent. You may be right about her sadness. Nonetheless she was already in a relationship when performing this. The "sweet Peter" she sings about in the song was acgually her boyfriend then.
