Acoustic Sessions Episode 3: I Will Survive by Gloria Gaynor Vocals by Buwa Piano by Patrick Courtin Mixed and Mastered by Rick Salt Video by Raymond Knight
After the original version of the great Gloria Gaynor, this one by Buwa is by far the best interpretation ever. Congratulations on the vocal range and intensity of the performance. Very good.
as a gay, I've heard hundreds of versions of I will survive in over 40 years, but besides Gladys Knight, this is the best I've ever heard. Greetings from Germany
@@buwalegend you have a wonderful emotional and Clear Voice. You give I will survive a meaning, that you understand what this song is about and not just only a party song by Gloria Gaynor. By the way, the first time I heard the version of Gladys Knight I will survive was in a drag queen pub in Cologne, Germany in the 80s and the drag queens dont want to tell me, who sings this song.And twenty Years later I found the Knight Version in a record shop in Amsterdam and I was so happy.
Best cover by far ...your cover made me cry ...your voice , your feelings that i felt through your voice are incredible ...your cover is like im in heaven right now
Omg! I’ve seen so many covers of this song and this is by far the best! What a voice. What a pianist. What an arrangement. So much feelings in this. Never thought another cover of the son g I’ve heard 100 times will give me goosebumps Great job guys.
wow this morning ive been searching for a cover version that is not "going all out", i believe emotional rich songs like this sounds much better when you start with lots of restrain and control.
Lyric At first I was afraid, I was petrified Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side But then I spent so many nights thinking 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 have changed that stupid lock, I should have made you leave your key If I'd known for just one second you'd be back to bother 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 hurt me with goodbye? You think I'd crumble? 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 And 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 Kept 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 see me Somebody new I'm not that chained-up little person still in love with you And so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free Well, now I'm saving all my lovin' for someone who's loving 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? You think I'd crumble? 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 And 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? You think I'd crumble? 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 And I've got all my love to give and I'll survive I will survive I will survive
