Gloria Fowles (Newark, 7 de setembro de 1943), mais conhecida como Gloria Gaynor, é uma cantora americana. Mais conhecida por seus grandes sucessos da Era Disco, "Never can Say Goodbye" de 1974, "Let Me Know (I Have A Right)" de 1978, "I Am What I Am" de 1984 e, principalmente, "I Will Survive" de 1978. == Biografia == Gloria Gaynor começou a cantar em um grupo chamado The Soul Satifiers na década de 1960. O grupo se apresentava em boates e assim Gloria foi descoberta e, logo foi levada para gravar seu primeiro single, "She'll Be Sorry/Let Me Go Baby", mas não obteve sucesso com sua primeira gravação, só mais tarde quando gravou "Honeybee" que Gloria Gaynor entrou nas paradas de sucesso e, com "Never Can Say Goodbye", ela ficou famosa no mundo inteiro. "Never Can Say Goodbye" também passou a ser considerada a primeira gravação em Disco Music. Gloria Gaynor também foi a primeira artista a gravar versões "extended mix" das músicas e também a primeira a gravar o disco sem pausa. Gloria Gaynor continuou a gravar até que em 1978 eis que surge aquele que até hoje é seu maior sucesso, "I Will Survive". A música visa o ponto de vista de uma mulher recém abandonada, dizendo ao ex companheiro que não precisa mais dele e já pode se virar sozinha. A música fez muito sucesso e em 1980 ganhou o primeiro e único Grammy de Melhor Gravação para Disco Music. "I Will Survive" já foi regravada diversas vezes por diversos artistas.

Versões de "I Will Survive"

Letra

At first, I was afraid, I was petrified
Kept thinkin' I could never live
Without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights
Thinkin' how you did me wrong
And I grew strong
And I learned how to get along

And so you're back from outer space
I just walked in to find you here
With that sad look upon your face
I should've changed that stupid lock
I should've made you leave your key
If I had known, for just one second
You'd be back to bother me

Well, now go! Walk out the door!
Just turn around now
'Cause you're not welcome anymore!
Weren't you the one
Who tried to hurt me with goodbye?
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?

Oh no, not I! I will survive!
Oh, as long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive!
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
And I'll survive! I will survive!
Hey, hey!

It took all the strength I had
Not to fall apart
And trying hard to mend the pieces
Of my broken heart

And I spent, oh, so many nights
Just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry
But now I hold my head up high!

And you'll see me, somebody new
I'm not that chained up little person
Still in love with you

And so you felt like droppin' in
And just expect me to be free
But now I'm savin' all my lovin'
For someone who's lovin' me!

Go on now! Go! Walk out the door!
Just turn around now!
'Cause you're not welcome anymore!
Weren't you the one
Who tried to break me with goodbye?
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?

Oh no, not I! I will survive!
And as long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive!
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
And I'll survive! I will survive!
Oh

Go on now! Go! Walk out the door!
Just turn around now!
'Cause you're not welcome anymore!
Weren't you the one
Who tried to break me with goodbye?
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?

No, no, not I! I will survive!
And as long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive!
And I've got all my life to live
And I've got all my love to give
And I'll survive
I will survive!
I will survive!
