Donna was never overly enthralled with her external appearance although most would argue that she was an exceptionally beautiful woman...she would downplay the significance of outward appearance e.g.she would often say that she never thought of herself as all that attractive and was never really concerned about it either way...she emphasized that what a person is on the inside is most important - not the other way around...beauty and brains
I love this song. She was such an incredible singer, writer, composer. The black community rarely recognizes her which is sad because the influence is spot on even with Mariah Carey.
Oh, my goodness, my little cousin and I used to sing the Mimi song as kids! Well, we actually had the entire live album memorized, because we played it so much!! Thank you, Donna Summer, Queen of Disco, for all the music. R.I.P.
My Heart is a bit heavy.. Donna passed away May 17, 2012; Dick Clark passed away April 18, 2012. ... Whitney Houston February 11, 2012; Don Cornelius February 1, 2012. May God Bless Them ALL.
@@janellirving4625 oh, that’s right and I learned later that Etta James passed away in January of the same year (2012). Tough year for music acts/ singers, and or music industry folk alike. i.e. DC & DC
@@bigolebot harsh word towards Whitney. ..was simply honoring the pair of Dick Clark in regards to Donna Summer & Don Cornelius in regards to Whitney Houston. I don’t compare the two. I don’t think youtube has Whitney’s Grammy Opening Performance of the Olympic Theme song: “One Moment In Time” Majestic.
This video tells why Donna was one of the best and most enduring aacts of the pop music scene in the 70's and 80's: An outstanding voice, gorgeous looks and a magical personality.
I met Donna when I was the Assistant Building Manager of a condo in L.A. Even though she was getting sicker, she was still the embodiment of grace, kindness, and charm. To me, her legacy remains a shining light with such a sweet and powerful voice!
Nicely done Donna I fell in love with this song the first time I heard it!!!! It was pure love coming from you to her and tonight is the time I seen it......Love just real pure love.and to me that is wonderful and is what the world needs most.Thanks for showing the world Your Love!!!!
omg im only 21 and this is my 1st time seeing & hearing this song it has brung tears to my eyes. thats is so special of donna to sing a song for her baby. that is a true motherly love that will never be takin away
what you said is so true. :') it reminds me of another song called lovin' you by minnie riperton that was dedicated to her daughter, maya. in the ending minnie can be heard singing maya's name over and over and then aftersome life passed, minnie included her other child's name ringo so he knew she loved him too. it's so touching. i hope you're doing well ♥
Thank you Donna for uploading this, first time for me, being in Australia we didn't get to see much of what the world had to offer but the best now is sadly fading away.
Hey Mimi WHEREEVER YOU ARE YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL and you belong to Donna Summer, YOU BELONG Thank you for sharing your mama with me, Mines could not do it.
I'm wondering if this Concert was perhaps the reason Donna and these other acts were NOT on "We Are The World" - they had already been on this special and the ensuing album fundraiser, and it was time for someone else's turn... For years I wondered why Donna was not on We Are The World, especially with Quincy producing...
Good though they are, Aretha Franklin and Diana Ross have 'credibility' but Donna gets underestimated because the critics sniff at disco and hate Moroder, they should all listen to this, *that* is a voice! Love the Jackie de Shannon song that follows as well. This was Band Aid and USA for Africa 5 years ahead of its time! And with a better line-up ;-)
Siempre recordare este especial para UNICEF(aun tengo el LP de ese concierto)y que tu Donna ,me emocionaste hasta las lagrimas con esta cancion. Reina indiscutida de la musica Disco , hoy nos dejas un gran vacio con tu partida, pero estaras en nuestro recuerdo a travez de tu musica.descansa en paz junto a otras grandes que se fueron en poco tiempo..GRACIAS DONNA...
+David Angello Wow, what an evil thing to say.... remember KARMA, be careful what you say now.. It's now known you probably don't like Donna as it is. You're probably a Madonna fan who is secretly jealous how donna's voice soared through the stadium. Not many stars can have done that, DEAD OR ALIVE...
+David Angello What are you on about, embarrass who, Donna Summer is well respected as a singer, with a talent like hers she should be praised, not demeaned . Give me an example of your taste in singer let alone music? I might be amused to say the least.
Desde que escuché la primera vez el disco (long play) donde cantaba esa canción la sentí como mía pues mi mamá se tuvo que ir a USA a trabajar para darnos casa, comida y estudio y siempre la necesité pero sabía que tenía que estar allá por nuestro bien y sabía que ella quería estar conmigo por lo que he tomado como mía esta canción, bella
Donna's Light shines ever bright to All and echoes into Eternity.....Dedicated to All The Children of the World at UNICEF...Truest Gift of Love to All Generations to Come. Far Surpasses this world As we Feel in Our Hearts and Souls Evermore. Pure Love, Devotion and Light.........Beyond All Barriers'....Love All... Far beyond Gratitude dear Donna with Ever Love.............

OMG she looks like her Mom, how beautiful she is.
I know! I've never seen this before 😭

Dick Clark has said... Donna is most under-appreciated female vocalist he knows.
and he is right in my opinion
He was 1000% RIGHT!!
My Heart is a bit heavy.. Donna passed away May 17, 2012; Dick Clark passed away April 18, 2012. ... Whitney Houston February 11, 2012; Don Cornelius February 1, 2012.
May God Bless Them ALL.
justjackjordinjustin Don't forget Robin Gibb.
Also remembering John Denver and Andy Gibb... may they all rest in eternal peace... till we meet again! 🙏❤😇
Whitney Houston was garbage

harsh
word
towards
Whitney.
..was simply honoring the pair of
Dick Clark in regards to Donna Summer
&
Don Cornelius in regards to Whitney Houston.
I don’t compare the two.
I don’t think youtube has Whitney’s Grammy Opening Performance of the Olympic Theme song:
“One Moment In Time”
Majestic.

An outstanding voice, gorgeous looks and a magical personality.
Donna Summer and her music got me though some hard times in the 1970s. Donna will be missed and truly loved always.
❤Rip Donna Summer ❤❤Boston Native ❤
So so beautiful. I think she'll always be proud of her mother.
Donna really had the most unique, strong, beautiful voice in the biz. We didn't deserve her! I still think of her every day.
She truly did 🙏🏻🌹
"we didn't deserve her" you must have a very low self esteem!!!
This is so sweet. Mimi was so cute and Donna was gorgeous! What a beautiful song Mimi has to remember her mom.
One of the best voices EVER!
So stunning and purely magical ,the voice that No one can touch ,she sings with such ease. 😍😍😍😍
The world was a better place with Donna summer X bless you hope mli is well happy love from me x
Shoot! I named my daugther after this song. Now she is far away, I can't stop crying while listen it. Thank you Donna. I'll love you forever.
🙏🏻🌹🙏🏻
What a beautiful musical tribute from Donna to her beautiful first-born daughter Mimi. She must have felt so darn lucky.
I would cry tears of happiness if I were Mimi hearing that song for the first time
I didn't even realize Mimi's outfit was matching mom's. How cute.
"I love you mommie dearest."
;-)
touched my heart the first time I heard it on her "Live & More" album...one of my favorites on that project.
Great song, fron live and more concert, I wish they will release the dvd.
Rip donna.she was the best!
My god she is sooooo BEAUTIFUL! A beauty.
Yep she was. Beautiful person too. I love her smile with her little girl after she says "good night"
Spirit Angelfish MashaAllah❤
Thank god for UA-cam....and thanks for posting all these Donna appearances! I remember listening to this song when I was a kid wishing I was Mimi.
I met Donna when I was the Assistant Building Manager of a condo in L.A. Even though she was getting sicker, she was still the embodiment of grace, kindness, and charm. To me, her legacy remains a shining light with such a sweet and powerful voice!

Such a beautiful woman her daughter so pretty

What a beautiful song! Memories
what a voice and beauty !!! and to notice its live...not all of the other singers performed live on this concert,,,

Donna Summer will be my first and last love forever, she was the sweetest woman in the world and my life.
OMG I’m glad I found this beautiful GEM 💎 ❤ I love Donna Summers 💗💗💗

A universal song for everybody of any religion, put a little love in your heart !
I think it's time for a revival of this song, God only knows we need it
myfeeling4you On the revival of God only "Adonai" by Donna Summer.
myfeeling4you How dare Donna embarrass another artist with her gift.
Well Rita is still here!
Payback is a bitch!

Good mom, Donna Summer.
Oh I forgot to mention Madonna. She was influenced so much by Donna that Secret is nothing but Spring Affair!
For my Mimi..xx
