Gloria Gaynor - I Will Survive

The ultimate song, of finding your own strenght from a breakup, this song I guess is the biggest gay anthem I know as everyone can identify with some line of this song. Released in late 1978 at the height of Disco, I Will Survive originally was going to be on the b side of Gloria's latest single Substitute. DJ's in the disco's picked up on the b side and quickly made that the track they played in the clubs.

The record company quickly started pressing the single with Survive on the a side and quickly began to storm up the charts. Released here in January 1979 the single finally got to number 1 and went gold. The simple video to go with the single is the iconic girl on the roller skates with Gloria singing the track in the night club. The single is one of the most well known disco tracks ever, it is always played at parties and one of those songs that is going to be around for ever!
