  • donna was unique in that she could sound like a talented white woman and had no qualms about being good at it, nor made apologies for it.

    she was not run of the mill motown fare. by the late 1980s sounding "white" was a capital crime to many.

  • great voice on donna. this is not a dis,but she could never move her body, to save her life. ironic, for someone who made such great dance music.

  • I have this performance on my ipod!! You can buy it from Itunes, just type in the search bar- "peter thomas black power"- and it should be there, the album is called "Moonflowers and mini-skirts". Donna Summers name doesnt appear as the artist, instead its Peter Thomas. :) :)

  • @sweetsoulfulmelody93 Yay!! Thank you I've been wanting this song for years

  • She does look like Kelly Rowland, what is this from, looks like a movie clip.

  • What is this song called

  • @HLC205: Black Power

  • @badpappy1

    donna sounds like a white woman here or a black women who likes white music. that is why she succeeded when she did. no motown artist could sell to white teens in the late 70s.

    if she did not go to europe and stayed in america and did NOT go to motown and worked with polished white producers like dionne warwick she may have still been popular. if she went to motown she would never have been known or never accepted there in the first place.

  • She looks like Kelly Rowland, or Kelly Roland looks like her!

  • Great! It's from a German TV series called "11 Uhr 20", 1970. This is the third episode of the first season called "Tod in der Kasbah".

  • @zieckzack

    donna never would have made it as an icon anywhere if she did not go to europe in 1968.

  • @musiclover77able Still one of your mothers eggs?

  • Wow, when she was twenty, I was two.

  • what is this taken from?

  • umm DAYUM

  • Any way she was already a pretty girl, and it is a beautiful presentation, performance, rendition.

  • She became better after became ripe, with prominent hips, inside a beautiful violet dress, shaped around her body, as at a clip in 1975 singing “Love to Love You Baby”.

    Her face in that video is more angular, her look is more malicious and aware, her gesture is more measured; that cavity among her thighs, her hips and her belly, whose English name I forgot, and which one I call “regaço”, seems more voluptuous.

    A great rendition for that music.

  • She's a DEAD RINGER for Kelly Rowland in this clip!

  • TODAY IS DONNA SUMMER'S BIRTHDAY DEC 31ST. SHE TURNS 62 YEARS YOUNG. HAPPY BIRTHDAY DONNA!!!!!!!! THEE DIVA WILL LIVE FOREVER.

  • 0:20 to 0:24 :O

  • Donna Summer is the ultimate Sex Goddess!!!!

  • I think this is a german movie...

  • @cobolsaurus ,,, it is ... this from ZDF the second german tv channel ... one of the two tv channels that got funded and still get from tax money before all those private channels appeared , comparable with ABC , NBC and CBS

  • That's Donna Summer in 1969? Not to get confused with "Summer of 69" by Bryan Adams.

  • I WANT this song! 

  • @candiikillz You can get it on iTunes.

  • what movie is this please?

  •  Wow--I'm stunned.

  • Very good voice. Talentless bitches like Birtney, Gaga and such should learn.

  • @pterodactilo I don't think Britney Spears and Lady Gaga are talentless especially Lady Gaga she has a great voice and operatic potential, but in this day and age talent will get you only so far. Like in the musical Gypsy you got have gimmick to make your talent stand out from the rest especially with a highly charged video culture -- everything has to be seen not listened to. Susan Boyle is great but once the fascination of her dies down she will go back to milking cows.

  • @pterodactilo Actually Britney can dance and Gaga has a decent voice so there is some talent there. But we are talking about Donna Summer who would destroy both of them easily with her voice.

  • @pterodactilo

    AMEN !!

  • @pterodactilo Lmao, Lady Gaga is actually an excellent singer, just because she makes pop/electronic music doesn't mean she isn't vocally talented. You should listen to some of her acoustic performances, where it's just her and the piano, before you judge her singing abilities.

  • @TheAngelSpeaks15 lady gaga is a JOKE, her voice is "ok" put the fact that she keeps tying to be MADONNA (minus the classic hit songs and the concept behind a video or the good dance moves..let's face it making a monster paw is not a dance move) and if I wanted to see a real pianist..i'd check tori Amos. if I wanted to see a Drag queen at the piano I'd check Elton John but since she's boring I'd go with the original MISS LIBERACE.

  • @TarantulaCandy Amen!

    

  • @TheAngelSpeaks15

    beyonce , mariah carey, janet jackson and that freakture eminem are the hags. lady gaga has become a scapegoat for the crap artists of the last 15 years.

  • @pterodactilo gaga is talented btw

  • @pterodactilo C'mon, I agree with Britney, but Gaga...? She's very talented! She's the producer, composer, performer... of all her songs and performances and this is not for everybody. Not even Donna did it at Gaga's age! Even though she also composed some songs...

  • damn thats a rare find thanks for posting!

  • that bitch is hot!!!! welll she don't look look that now!!!!

  • Damn, she is so sexy!!!!!!!

  • dang, if i got on top of that, ain't no crow bar in the world pulling me off.

  • looks like she has had a little work done around the nose

  • @tbursee , whtvr!, she's completely allowed!

  • Wow she looks like Kelly Rowland!

  • this is KELLY ROLAND. LOL BUT DONT SHE LOOK LIKE HER?

  • Donna Summer has a new single coming out this August, 2010. It's called, "To Paris With Love". There's going to be some great mixes too!

  • @stevescissors Can find original and remixes on xavirocat.

  • @xavirocat I was just thinking that. Kelly is sexy too. Met her a few years ago in Houston. She was standing so close to me, damn, I just wanted to grab her and kiss her. LOL.

  • HOT !

  • @EdoBigFish..Thanks for recognizing that guy (rondj 1965) was lying thru his teeth..

    cause i was saying the same thing you said lol..lol .. Then he probably notice that he got caught out there..so he had to cover it up...lol..boy o boy!!!!

  • Small error Janet Jackson's worldwide album sales are 138 million

  • this is around the time I started seeing Donna Summer. I was an electrician on that set in '69. We saw each other for about 6 months before I broke up with her. She left to go to California after that, in July1970.

  • @rondj1965 So you were electrician in movie business at 4?? Wow... a real talent... ._.

  • @EdoBigFish Yeah, I was big for my age! Ha! No, I never dated Donna Summer. It was a joke. But she IS one of the most beautiful women in the world. And THAT is NO joke!

  • Oh God, I love her! What movie is this?

  • Dayum girl!!

  • The 1960s is when chicks started to look hot by today's standards. This is a prime example.

  • kelly rowland!!!!!

  • @jokosirwanto ????

  • Aw can someone tell me the name of this film?

  • Young Diva!!!

  • Wow, I never made a connection of the resemblance between Kelly Rowland and Donna Summer but dayum, Kelly looks like she could be Donna's child. Even the long lankiness is the same.

  • looks like an old James Bond movie

  • I wish I had a time machine so I could get sum cutty from Donna summer. She was fuckin gorgous mane.

  • @jwatts456 me too.. aging is a bastard... she'd be getting turned out 21st century style haha/./. up the bum

  • The resemblance (Kelly and Donna) is not coincidental. Every generation has its purpose.

  • i have always loved  her voice!

  • she was 19 or 20

  • @BornAgainAmerican1 -- she was always a talented singer.I wonder does she consider her career to have been as successful and productive as it could have truly been

  • @BornAgainAmerican1 - She was 20 in '69.

  • how old was she in this video ?

  • Was this form " PlayBoy after dark" or something?

  • Donna Summer is my favorite female singer ever!!!!!!

  • i would love to see pictures of her first husband, i know i saw him once in a pic on a piece on tv about her, not bad, i believe he was German.

  • kelly rowland?????? nope - donna summer! the original..

  • @ALOA2U1 Its true. Come to think of it. Kelly Rowland does look like her.

  • wow shes hot , donna summers that is.

  • Wow, Donna was young in this movie clip. The strawberry blonde looks like Anne Margaret

  • Man, she is TINY! :-)

  • Man, she was smokin' hot!

  • Donna Summer (then 'Gaines') was appearing in Haare (Hair) at the time this record was made. There's a rumour it was a single release in Germany, as was the title song from Haare 'Wassermann'. These are rare and very collectable Donna Summer 45's. Her next recordings were for the stage show 'The Me Nobody Knows' (Ich Bin Ich) in 1970, then in 1971 her first solo single release 'Sally Go Round The Roses'.

  • Donna Summer having been born in 1948 here in 1969 - 21 years old - delicious cocoa goddess

  • 20- She was born New Years Eve 1948

  • If you want to hear the whole song, look under Peter Thomas Black Power. Peter Thomas is a German music producer who had Donna Summer guest starring in this song. Enjoy.

  • this song is now available on iTunes!! ACE

  • she looks like Kelly from Destiny's Child - especially at 0:18

  • At best it's kelly that looks like Donna. Let's not get our facts mixed up ;)

  • the title is wrong it should be donna in 69

    wouldnt mind a bit of that myself this chick is hot!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • dahaaaaaaaaamn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • It almost looks like porn LOL! she says "come" twice. LOL. but damn , she does look nice. I was only 7 in 1969

  • looks like donna has sum explaining to do

  • Where is this from? what show or movie?

  • Did she same her name was Max Power????

  • SHE LOOKS HOT!!!!!!!!

  • Donna Summer is the evergreen goddess of disco. it´s a sacriege to be compared with the nice Kelly Rowland.

  • Kelly Rowlan?

  • shes responsible for giving me jungle fever starting in 5th grade!

  • Donna Summer ranks #6 in worldwide album sales from a female solo artist. Donna has sold 178 million record albums. Kelly Rowland does resemble the ''Queen of Disco''. Donna will be 61 years young this December 31st. Donna is the first recording artist to have (3) #1 Double Albums which are Live and More (1978),Bad Girls (1979) and On The Radio Greatest hits Vol 1&2 (1979). She is a 5 time Grammy winner,an Oscar winner and American Music Award winner and a chart topper. She is simply amazing.

  • @1musicencyclopedia

    I'm with you! The Queen of Disco Rules!!

  • @1musicencyclopedia AN Oscar winner? When did that happened? The only female chart-toppers who also won an Oscar are Cher and Barbra, as far as I know..

  • Comment removed

  • @vrus85...Donna (and writer Paul Jabara) won an Academy Award for "Last Dance", back in 1978. It featered in the movie "Thank God it's Friday".

  • @Welkenaamisvrij On the imdb it there's only one nomination for Donna, and it's for a Golden Globe award in 1977...

  • @vrus85 That's probably because Academy Awards for "Best original song" are officially awarded to the WRITER of a song...So in a way you're right: Donna didn't win an Oscar, Paul Jabara did. :)

  • @vrus85 And Jennifer Hudson

  • @vrus85......Donna Summer won an Oscar for ''Best Song in a Motion Picture" from the 1978 movie ''Thank God It's Friday''. The hit song was ''Last Dance'' written by Paul Jabara. There is footage on youtube when she performed the song at the Oscars. Check it out.

  • @1musicencyclopedia - Who is the creditable source of her albums sales? Reason being: RIAA,( RIAA.com, the official Certification of Platinum and gold sales) list the Beatles at the #1 record sales in History at 170 million. I doubt Ms. Summer is larger in sales than the Beatles? Again, who is the creditable source?

  • @innamorata40...top 15 female worldwide sales.... 1) Madonna 257 million 2) Mariah Carey 232 million 3) Whitney Houston 220 million 4) Nana Mouskouri 206 million 5) Diana Ross 189 million 6) D o n n a S u m m e r 178 million 7) Celine Dion 175 million 8) Barbra Streisand 168 million 9) Janet Jackson 18 million 10 Shania Twain 132 million 11 Tina Turner 125 million 12 Dolly Parton 120 million 13 Cher 116 million 14 Aretha Franklin 108 million 15 Britney Spears 78 million
  • @innamorata40 again...........Who this creditable source?????? RIAA is the official company that tallies all Platinum and Gold records. Ever seen the Platinum and Gold albums that are dipped, framed and presented to the artist?? There are from RIAA. Your source is not correct. RIAA is the official company. Keep dreaming!

  • @1musicencyclopedia what movie did she win a oscar for, if i am not mistaken was it thankgod it friday.

  • @MrCarlmorrow.....That is correct. Thank God It's Friday was the movie that Donna Summer won the Oscar Award for ''Best Song'' titled ''Last Dance''. Very Good.

  • who woulda known just 5-6 yrs later she be the BIGGEST female hitmaker of the entire 70s!!!!

    11 Uhr 20 (1970)

  • Goddess...

  • I can't get over how different she looked back then when she was mainly famous in the 70's and 80's. wow!!!

  • This is rare footage of Donna Summer at an early age......everyone has to start somwhere!! She pulls of the 60's thang really well!!

    Not sure her parents would have approved of the outfit.........or lack of it!!!! Still, I personally think she looks great and she still does!! My dream is to meet her before I die!! (even though I'd probably be glued to the spot drooling over the mere presence of her!!!!)

    I LOVE DONNA SUMMER!!!!!!

  • Umm, so would I!

  • SOOOO FINE!!!!!!!

  • Wow! It's hard to imagine her doing anything in the 60's for some reason! I guess it's because she was so famous in the 70's & 80's.
