Donna Summer -- the Queen of Disco -- died this morning after a battle with cancer ... TMZ has learned.
We're told Summer was in Florida at the time of her death. She was 63-years-old.
Summer was a 5-time Grammy winner who shot to superstardom in the '70s with iconic hits like "Last Dance," "Hot Stuff" and "Bad Girls."

Oh, this does resonate. During my school dances, when I was in the eighth grade, "Last Dance" was the obligatory closing song. I don't know how many eighth graders found romance, though some of the high-school kids may have had better luck. And I remember, too, how a friend had a crush on a pretty girl who was nicknamed Radio, so that he loved the song "On the Radio", thinking of that phrase in its most literal sense. I can remember us laughing about it in his kitchen now. Ah, Those Yokota days. My family shipped out before I could learn how old Steve made out with her, but it was looking pretty good for him. I wish I could say the same for myself.
