Donna Summer - Last Dance | REACTION

[@gl15col]

People make fun of disco, but dancing to it was some of the most fun I ever had. So my memories are all just happy and nobody can change that.

[@jackiegoodspeed1849]

At the time, yes, especially is we were not mid teens. But now, oh my gosh. So much to dance to and just brings back good memories even during a chaotic home life.

[@ANDY1985UK2011]

donna summer transcended disco though

[@jackiegoodspeed1849]

@@ANDY1985UK2011 She sure did. She was better than Diana ross.

[@JimmieJamOfTheDay]

People protested against Disco too by burning Disco records. Silly humans!

[@micheler4120]

OMG the clubs, the peeps, the dancing.................irreplaceable.

[@LeosHouse]

I remember closing time in the clubs. They’d put this song on, everyone would race to the dance floor! Great times! 💃🏼

[@lindawendt5372]

It was the last dance, last song and a warning the lights are going to be turned on. 😀

[@jacqueline4514]

Yes!!!! I remember that 😃

[@dana_brooke_27]

Those were the days!

[@l.t.w8985]

Yup. All her songs were like that. Disco queen

[@stormatsunup]

@ LeosHouse I lived in Florida and you are so right This song was the last song of the night~~

[@alexisr5199]

This was always the last song played at the clubs. "Last Dance" Then lights came on and you were ushered out. Memories!

[@JasmineAHart]

It was last dance also at the skater rink..... so much fun to dance to.

[@sheilameyers152]

Never wanted the night to end!

[@realShadowKat]

Donna Summer still gives me the chills when I listen to her sing. Never ever did she phone it in, hold back... always gave it her all. And as long as we still listen to her voice she lives on in all of us.

[@kmach1000]

One of the most beautiful voices ever!

[@tracid3877]

She was the QUEEN of the late 70's!!

She is the queen of disco for her voice alone!!! The sister can sing!!!

[@aylbdrmadison1051]

_"Makes a brother feel good."_ It's a wonderful space you created where all good people feel at home. It's some real love up in here Jamel, and you have so much reason to feel good and celebrate. You could be broke as hell, but you would still be what I call a real success. This is something you will take with you and if there is a Pearly Gates, Saint Peter will be smiling when you get there. Thank you. ^-^ Much love to all good humans all across the world. You enrich my life and the lives of those you touch. Keep being you. ^-^

[@rhondamcbath6279]

What a wonderful compliment my friend, you are so right Jamal is a super kind, loving soul 🤗🤗🤗, and you my friend are also a great, kind, and special person for giving those like Jamal the recognition that he so deserves 🙂🙂🙂. I hope your having a great day as well. I love this great music, the great atmosphere Jamal has created, and most importantly the awesome 😎 and cool people like yourself that can see and feel the love Jamal gives to all of us each and every day.. peace ☮️ out!! 💕💕💕

[@angelaackerman8934]

Beautiful Donna with that angelic voice. Queen of Disco when she sings you just gotta get up and dance!. RIP

[@TheoriginalMach2000]

God, i miss the voice of this woman! So unique and underrated. To this day there hasn't been one voice similar to Donna's.

[@tropenkindje1]

Donna Summer, Queen of Disco. One of the most beautiful women in the seventies.Still has 6 albums of her from back in the days. This brings back my teenage years. Did you know that Bruce Springsteen wrote a song{ protection} for her.

[@benjamindenton]

Try some of her epic numbers: Love To Love You Baby, Macarthur Park, I Feel Love.

[@kbusby4824]

Great suggestions.

[@wm8498]

Yes!! Thank you Eva!! Donna is my QUEEN!!! She was such a talented singer and trail blazer for the acts to follow!

[@KathySandru]

Younguns, that’s not singing - That’s SANGING!!! Beyoncé has nothing on her. Donna will always be the unsung Original Diva! So unfortunate she was typecast in Disco because she was so much more than that.

[@barbarawebb7185]

Same with The Bee Gees

[@julielovelace7189]

Truth

[@jackiegoodspeed1849]

True but her fans knew better. One thing about back then, fans showed respect to the artists because the artists showed such respect to the audience.

[@personalcheeses8073]

TRUTH!

[@personalcheeses8073]

And she’s hardly putting any effort in. Damn those talentless autocue kids today

[@nancyl3843]

She had the most beautiful voice. RIP Donna Summer. God bless you.

[@samanthab1923]

How easy does she belt that song out! Gives me chills. Her stuff with Giorgio Moroder kicks ass. I feel Love is on Midnight Special too!

Donna was the Disco Goddess. She could make you SOAR like no other performer of that dance era. Magic.

[@renee176]

Now this lady can sang! Check out the movie "Thank God it's Friday" where this song is highlighted at the end! Note: this movie also has actor Jeff Goldblum and the band The Commodores in it also. Donna Summers daughter also sings and has music out with her husband, it's definitely worth a listening also.

[@Trish0871]

I was just going to say that.

Good gracious what an amazing singer!! I so loved Donna Summer's music growing up and here approaching 60 i can still feel the magic of this music and her amazing talent. Her, Gladys Knight, and Teena Marie are three of my all time favorite female vocalists.... There are so many great ones but those three have always stood out to me for different reasons. Thanks for spreading so much love and positivity with your channel dear brutha! The world can often feel toxic but there is always love and there is always music! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@loritajohnson5664]

Donna Summer is one of the best singers in music history! Unique and powerful voice. No one like her. Gone too soon. Thank you for another reaction! I agree with other commentor about her duet with Barbra Streisand 'No More Tears (Enough is Enough)'. Another great song.

This is still my number 1 song of all time. Saw this heavenly beauty in person in 1978. She radiated pure love and joy. Her young daughter stole the show : ) Just lovely. Her album Once Upon A Time is still my favorite. It is whimsical, magical and ethereal. And who could ever forget I Feel Love?! Oh so sensual for the times : ) Such a beautiful soul...

[@joanfisher1079]

Real Singers with such immense talent who can perform live like their recordings is and has been a very dying breed. Nothing but them and a microphone with their Vocals and no Auto Tuner. The Music Industry is now Crap for the most part. Relies now on digital download hits and no actual lyrics or musicality vs. actual Artistry and Talent. Sad but true. Performers like Donna are still out there but rare indeed. The day of the singer/songwriter is dead with the exception of few and far between. We lost her too soon per Cancer. There is a reason she's labelled QUEEN of DISCO. Her voice was untouchable with the hits she created.

I’ve gotten my mom onto your channel and she’s hooked. So much so, she’s already bought herself one of your shirts!!! I will continue to share you and your positive vibes with people I know.

No Joke! Then follow it up with "Turn Off The Lights", & oh yeah, I'm done. I saw Pendergrass in concert. The venue was filled with women & I was the only white woman. A little girl sitting next to me asked her Mom, how come a white woman is here. Her Mom looked at me & replied, "everyone loves Teddy". My response almost made her Mom slide out of her chair... "Teddy can park his shoes under my bed any day".
