Donna Summer - If There Is Music There (1999) *HER VOICE!* DayOne Reacts

[@Vannie-f1y]

i have no words she is the absolute queen

[@paulwalker9421]

Even to this day her voice to me was a gift to us all !! Such Great Talent !!!RIP Donna Summer. Thank you Angela

I have listen to this song a hundred times and still get emotional and goose bumps from Donna's amazing vocals, unmatched.

[@mickdenis6630]

The song is from the VH1 concert Live and More Encore from 1999, the musical Donna was talking about is called Ordinary Girl (it has not come to fruition yet). The song is obviously auto biographical. It's the point in her life after her marriage to Helmuth Sommer and the birth of their daughter Mimi (1973) living in Germany, when she leaves the marriage and comes home to the US to pursue music and the rest is history.

Kelly Rowland bought the rights to Ordinance Girl last I heard.

I love you so much for this reaction! It is so good to see appreciation for her music outside disco! That woman made music for almost 50 years, there is so much more to her voice than dance music. Love your story and how you relate to the story!

[@johnthegreek5836]

Donna Summer is definitely is the Queen of Disco and had powerful vocals but this display her vocal abilities for balads, simply beautiful

[@HAWK11828]

The talent and passion in her singing

[@pamagnolia]

Omg!! I have always loved this singer and always will. Rest in peace dear one! 😢🙏

[@bethmoore7589]

Her voice is so beautiful. This song makes me cry every time I listen to it.

[@WalkerOne]

Beautiful song. Thanks for sharing.

She's so touching. The night sky lost one of it's brightest stars.

Donna Summer released "There Will A Be A You" on her 1979 "Bad Girls" album. It's haunting and beautiful! In a BBC Music review of the album, Daryl Easla wrote, "Bad Girls is a fantastic reminder of when [Summer] was the Britney, Christina, Mary J and Missy of her day all rolled into one."

[@rayphelps2129]

One of the most emotionally hard hitting songs she did. Didn’t think it was known to many, other than fans. I’ve heard this song is about the divorce from her first husband. I interpreted as receiving a higher calling and one has an overwhelming compulsion to follow, knowing that it may cost you everything. There are other songs (all performed live) from the play from this same album, VH1 Live and More Encore. This is a great live album and the sound is fantastic. Well worth a listen. Yes, it was released in 1999. One of my favorites from her.

[@RC-vv6nr]

She was always a powerful singer, the best...RIP

Hi Angela Donna is a great artist you will be blown away by Down Deep Inside the theme to the film the Deep very underrated song.

[@rouguy1972]

One of my favorite songs, great Vh1 concert❤

[@marcosafarias1069]

My diva ❤

[@jeffchampagne5587]

There’s a video of her on J Leno singing “anyway at all” one night, and you should absolutely react to that. All of her best performances are live. She was somebody who I saw in concert Several times. She was always better live than on record it was an amazing thing to hear her sing live.

[@michaelv9929]

I think I only heard this song a couple of times….very nice! Great reaction Angela(feel better) Love Donna Summer RIP 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻

[@michaelrachels8785]

This so awesome Donna Summer can sang anything

[@COLINWARD-v3y]

Unusual to hear a ballad from Donna summer, as often her songs are more up tempo. Still, great voice as usual and moving song-Colin Ward

[@lamusiclover2264]

This was performed first on her 1999 Live and More Encore special. It was for the musical she was writing., (Ordinary Girl") which unfortunately never happened. The other songs are great too. If you get the "Live and More Album" I think 2 or 3 of the 4 new songs are on that.

[@tonynegron1927]

🌹~•DS•~ 🎤 She had fantastic range & so under appreciated. 👑 🕺📻💃

[@GiancarloLazzara]

From my research I believe this song is refencing the beginning of Donna Summer's career way back in the 60s. If you read her book you will know what I am talking about. PS, the title of the book is "Ordinary Girl The Journey Donna Summer"

[@salpusateri7242]

Another song from the play is “My Life” from the same VH1 concert 1999 :)

[@npo64]

So beautiful ❤

[@romerjusu3804]

She was in NYC working on her stage show in 9-1+1 and breathed in the toxic dust and died a few years later. Ordinary Girl !

[@carolgordon4785]

Please review her cover of Could This Magic....it's a master class in talking song from another artist and taking to whole new level..Not that Barry Manilows isn't as good ..But Donna's is W❤W!....This is song gorgeous thanx for sharing...! Proof of what I've always said she is way more than the queen of disco...!

[@rbcinmia]

WOW......goosebumps.

[@davids2096]

I'd like to recommend you feature Donna performing Mc Arthur 🏞️ Park one day soon! The 17 plus minute version! I don't know if you can swing that, but give it a 💉🥃 shot! This one here is very melodious and profound! 😍 Pretty groovy! I still haven't forgotten about Joni Sledge and the song she performed as part of Sister Sledge, Lost In Music! I hope you do it before I join her in the next realm, whatever that may be! Until next time, goodbye!

[@perfumewench]

The play was called “Ordinary Girl” but was never completed and no soundtrack was released.

[@TheQuazar1961]

the play was ordinary girl

[@stevefuller8771]

Brilliant ❤

[@THEPATRIOT1000]

There is a documentary about Donna out now.

[@davids2096]

I believe all of us can relate and resonate with what you said at the end! I don't want to get too involved in this response, so I will not continue! See ya people, goodbye!

Too bad it wasn’t the live video from the 1999 VH1 comeback concert . Want a great TASTE?? I know you did “last Dance” studio version already. But please do it again LIVE from the same VH1 concert. You and your fans will love it!! Thank you :) ❤

Wow, beautiful...and we lost her so long as well as the no. 1 Karen Carpenter...just kill me.

[@martyemmons1859]

She really does need music. Just like Natalie Cole "Mr. Melody" And The Average White Band "Queen of My Soul".

Please please tell me how I can get this song on Itunes. Was it ever released as a single.

[@gabrielmcdonnell8699]

Donna sang it beautifully. I could feel the emotion but I didn’t connect with the song. And it’s nothing personal against “If There Is Music There” bc there have been numerous show tunes (incl very popular ones) that rendered me indifferent.

[@michaelasay8587]

Angela, you need to get back to Karen Carpenter's voice!!
