How do you not know that? Even I know it and I totally avoided commercial music. |

"Laura Brannigan-Gloria "
Did you know the original 1979 version was sung in Italian by Umberto Tozzi? It was translated into English by none other than Jonathan King who recorded his version later that year.
Laura Branigan's 1982 version was a re-write of the lyrics in English rather than a direct translation. She died of a brain aneurysm in 2004 aged 52.
Sorry if I'm boring you. |

While there is some exceptional taste in there, one of them is from 1990!!! And I feel such a pedantic music need saying that!   |

Kill Your Television!
While officially released in 1990, it was played live at some of their gigs in 89- when i first saw them, so technically its an 80's track |

You're thinking of 'Blaze of Glory'. Wanted Dead or Alive was on the most famous Bon Jovi album Slippery When Wet. |
