I agree with you. Whitney and Mariah CANNOT EVER be on Donna’s level vocally. The reason being is that Donna pretty much sounds the same as the original recording of this song back in 1978 from the Live and More double album.. Whitney’s voice is GONE, Mariah is LAZY. Donna is the consumate modern female vocalist that sounds the same for 35 years. Her voice never cracked or was ever off key or pitchy. Whitney or Mariah had VOCAL problems in the past. No excuses 4 them to have voice problems.

Very few singers stand the test of time/ decades and usually their voices deteriorate. Mariah has had some poor vocal performances and so had Whitney. But it must be said it is very very rare and seldom that Donna Summer has a bad day and I must say that her voice seems to age like a good wine or whiskey. I even think her voice sounds smoother, rounder and warmer now than ever before. She is a goddess of a singer and unparalleled level of deliverance that never disappoints!

her voiced has aged well, unlike the disco singers that were on Idol tonight.

Donna Summer joins THEM???? Its the other way around. But you’re right about her being a powerhouse in her day. Strong , clear. The tone of her voice was flawless . It was like the voice of a goddess and she still has that. She’s just older now. But in her day? Wow!

I’ve been watching her since the 70’s and this is the ONLY time I have ever heard Donna not hold a note! One miss in about 4 decades of performing is fucking phenomenal,you go Donna!

Donna Summer joins the ranks of great female vocalists like Whitney and Mariah. Just listen to the original version of this song.. when she was younger. Powerhouse of a voice.

That’s over 25 years worth of emotions and life experiences added to the voice. I kinda like the way she sounds now. Warmer.

Actually, she can still nail this song…IMHO better then the original recording. Just watch Live and More Encore…for starters. I think for her, she was out of her element. Still amazing though.

It’s still stunning to see that she’s still able to sing this vocally unbelievable difficult song! Maybe not for the fully 100% (the high notes) but, which performer can do this after an original recording dated 30 years?? Point me one singer who can!!! No Donna is one of a kind. Superb, unparalelled.
This legendary voice have to be used as a BIG example to all singers!

Donna Summer has sold millions of records. She’s famous around the world and is an incredible entertainer! I think she can have a weak note once in a while! She recorded a lot of these songs 30 years ago-give me a break. At least we know she really sings when she’s on stage! Donna Summer, almost 60 and she can blow anyone off the stage!

Like legendary Maria Callas once said: “My voice (ie. her voice) is not an elevator”. That applies to all voices, so please stop blaming Donna Summer for this one and only vocal crack. That’s human, may she was tired or I don’t know what. A voice such as hers is UNIQUE AND TO BE HEARD ONLY ONCE IN A CENTURY. She is a true ICON.
