I Will Survive - The Very Best Of Gloria Gaynor

Love Gloria Gaynor.

Decent collection. It’s missing some essentials and the fidelity isn’t great. Still a good one to have.

I live in Miami and spent a week in wintertime New York. These are fabulous. I put these in my sneakers and dress boots. They are even more comfortable than the inserts without the furry sole. Saving money to get another pair as I am going to Chicago for 2 weeks in Jan.

Great voice, great song!

A great way to flash back in time.Love this CD.

This Gloria Gaynor album is very good. It includes the bonus track I will survive extended mix.

It is a joy to listen and remember these old hits

The entire CD is very enjoyable, but I mainly bought it for one song "I Will Survive". This is definitely my favorite and her best. It sure picks me up when I am feeling low. The CD was very good quality, beatiful throughout, and I highly recommend it.

This is the Gloria Gaynor compilation to buy. It contains all her major hits in their original and in most cases full-length versions - I Will Survive, Never Can Say Goodbye, I Am What I Am - plus all her minor hits, such as Honey Bee, Let me know (I have The Right), How High the Moon, Casanova Brown, and All I Need Is your Sweet Lovin'.Gloria's first album contained the first ever segued disco hit sequence, allowing for non-stop dancing in clubs - the tracks were Honey Bee, Never Can Say Goodbye and Reach Out I'll Be There. It took up the entirety of one side of the album, and is reproduced here in full length over tracks 2 to 4. This proved popular in discos all over the world, and was copied by subsequent Disco artists, but it was Gloria who did it first!The lyrics of her best songs were empowering to those who felt oppressed in their lives and/or relationships, so Gloria naturally became a gay icon. She celebrated this in her explicity gay anthem, I Am What I Am, which was also one of her biggest hits. Whilst Gloria embraced God from the early 1980s onwards, she refused to castigate her gay fans when asked if her gay following caused her conflict, unlike Donna Summer was later alleged to have done.Unfortunately Gloria's later career became somewhat over-shadowed by Donna Summer's career, but this set represents her very best work. Recommended.

My CD collection was missing a copy of Gloria's great hit, "I Will Survive" and I was recommended to buy this album as the perfect way of filling that gap. Well it has certainly done that! It is a terrific album, with not one, but two versions of the hit track I wanted, together with disco mixes of Gloria's best known hits. I put on this CD shortly after it arrived and was soon bopping happily around the house in full disco-era mode!This CD would be a great buy for anyone wanting a genuine feel-good party album, one which would absolutely guarantee that everyone would be up and dancing - and probably singing along, too! A smashing album and a great buy!

Bought this really for one song I am what I am off a TV advert. It doesn't dissapoint.

Purchased for a gift

songs are great, equality of recoding disappointing I wrongly thought all of the old songs re-released were re-mastered. this one isn't but kept it anyway
