Donna Summer Could Have Been an Opera Diva

With the passing today of disco diva Donna Summer I will make the bold statement that of all the pop music singers I've heard, Donna is number one in my book for having the raw material to have made a fine opera singer. On her vocal range video on Youtube she sings up to high E, had a gorgeous voice,possessed a unique color, and with maybe the prettiest upper register of any singer in pop. Lord knows she made more money in pop, but it is fun to speculate about what could have been.
