Caught her show quite by accident in 1998 in a street concert at Disney downtown. She was in top form. I was with a couple of gay friends who were completely in thrall to all the tunes. We sang, we danced, we got three encores!
After a successful career in Europe, Summer started as a back up singer for Three Dog Night in the states. She moved on and up when the disco craze started in the 70's. I polled friends for the most remembered "Big Song" and got:
MacArthur Park Love to Love You Baby Last Dance She Works Hard For the Money
For my money, my favorite was the wistful... "On the Radio". Below. Enjoy.

Quid,
I am sorry to hear of her passing and
thank you for sharing "On The Radio".

I loved Donna Summer and would be hard pressed to pick a favorite song.
I'm sorry she's gone.
You chose a great song in tribute. Her unique voice and energy will be missed.
