ESTO ES
G L O R I A
Gloria, you're always on the run now
Running after someone, you gotta get him somehow
I think you've got to slow down before you start
to blow it
I think you're headed for a breakdown, so be
careful not to show
it
You really don't remember, was it something that
he said?
all the voices in your head calling, Gloria?
Gloria, don't you think you're fallin'?
If everybody wants you, why isn't anybody callin'?
don't you have to answer
Leave them hangin' on the line, oh-oh-oh, calling
Gloria
Gloria (Gloria), I think they got your number
(Gloria)
I think they got the alias (Gloria) that you've
been living
under (Gloria)
But you really don't remember, was it something
that they said?
all the voices in your head calling, Gloria?
A-ha-ha, a-ha-ha, Gloria, how's it gonna go down?
Will you meet him on the main line, or will you
catch him on the
rebound?
Will you marry for the money, take a lover in the
afternoon?
Feel your innocence slipping away, don't believe
it's comin'
back soon
And you really don't remember, was it something
that he said?
all the voices in your head calling, Gloria?
Gloria, don't you think you're fallin'?
If everybody wants you, why isn't anybody callin'?
don't you have to answer
Leave them hangin' on the line, oh-oh-oh, calling
Gloria
Gloria (Gloria), I think they got your number
(Gloria)
I think they got the alias (Gloria) that you've
been living
under (Gloria)
But you really don't remember, was it something
that they said?
Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria?
(Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, Gloria)
(Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, Gloria

Forever Young - Laura Branigan
"Forever Young" has become something of a pop
culture standard. It has been performed by
numerous musical groups and in different versions
and has appeared in television series, movies, and
advertisements. The song plays during scenes in
the television series Passions, It's Always Sunny
in Philadelphia (episode 103: "Underage Drinking:
A National Concern"), the North American version
of Queer as Folk (season 1, episode 18), and One
Tree Hill (season 4, episode 16). It also plays in
the movie Listen to Me and during the school dance
scene of the 2004 film Napoleon Dynamite. In 2006
and 2007 the song was used in advertisements for
the Scandinavian banks SEB in Sweden and Nordea in
Denmark. It also appeared in prom-themed
advertisements for Saturn ION automobiles.
Just a year after the song's initial release, pop
singer Laura Branigan covered "Forever Young" on
her album Hold Me and began a tradition of
performing the song as an encore at her concerts.
In 1996 the Canadian Eurodance group Temperance
released a cover version of the song which reached
number 8 on the Canadian Dance Chart. Idol 2006
contestant Sara Burnett performed "Forever Young"
on the Swedish television show. Her performance
qualified her for the show's top 10 and appears on
the soundtrack Det bästa från idol 2006 (The
best from Idol 2006). Other artists to have
covered "Forever Young" in the years since its
original release include the Countdown Singers, DJ
Space C, David Monte Cristo, DJ Company, Dune,
BnH, Emil Wakin Chau, Fire & Ice, Interactive,
Waterboy, Ella, Tune Up!, Youth Group and Axel
Rudi Pell. In 2001 Swedish group Ainbusk re-wrote
the song in their native language as an
existential Christmas carol titled "Förevigt nu".

Educational: Assignment (to the advanced class
only:)
Write a 5 pages essay about disco and discuss this
song. Dont forget to add an attachment about this
singer... passed away at a too young age.
(this take is quite unique. From Germany it seems
the only preserved take on a life stage by Laura)

Laura Branigan (July 3, 1957 -- August 26, 2004)
was an American singer and actress of Irish
ancestry. She was best known for her 1982
platinum-selling single "Gloria," a hit throughout
the world which spent a record-setting 36 weeks on
Billboard's Hot 100. Branigan's vocal performance
of the song earned her a Grammy Award nomination
in early 1983.
Following the success of "Gloria," Branigan
introduced the ballad "How Am I Supposed to Live
Without You", which spent three weeks at #1 on the
US Adult Contemporary chart. The same year, she
had another Top 10 Pop hit with "Solitaire".
Branigan's "Self Control" album (1984) was
certified Platinum and was her all-time biggest
seller with the title track becoming an
international smash....
n the early 1970s, she was a member of a band
called Meadow, who released one album in 1973
album entitled The Friend Ship. The record was not
a hit and has never been re-released. Branigan,
for whatever reason, preferred not to discuss her
involvement with Meadow publicly. During the years
after Meadow broke up, she worked a wide variety
of jobs, including a stint as one of Leonard
Cohen's backup singers. She toured with Cohen
throughout Europe. (It is not known if she toured
any other continents with Cohen.)
In 1979 she was signed by Ahmet Ertegün to
Atlantic Records. The strength of her dramatic
alto voice, with its four-octave range, ironically
impeded her career for a couple of years while the
label went through the process of categorizing
her. She was finally categorized as a pop singer
and a single called "Looking Out For Number One"
hit the U.S. Dance charts. Her first solo album
Branigan was released in 1982: the first single
from this album was "All Night With Me", which hit
#69 on the Billboard charts in early 1982. Her
first reviews were most enthusiastic, with her
voice being compared to both Donna Summer and
Barbra Streisand, both of whom had enjoyed iconic
Disco hits over the previous few years....
Branigan died at her home on Long Island, New
York, on August 26, 2004. Her death was attributed
to a previously undiagnosed brain aneurysm. It was
reported in the media that she had been
experiencing headaches for a few weeks before her
death but did not seek medical attention. Branigan
was cremated and her ashes were distributed over
Long Island Sound....
