《I Will Survive》（中文譯“我會活下來”）Gloria Gaynor 。非常勵志和震撼的一首歌！

這是上世紀七十年代有Queen of Disco之稱的Gloria Gaynor一首最出彩的歌曲，是70年代Disco必備歌曲，法國世界盃足球隊開賽歌選用此曲，最重要的是，此曲也被滾石評為100首最偉大的作品之一。我選的是這首歌的一個現場版本，自我感覺是現場版的非常非常的棒，尤其是這首歌的最後有4分鐘左右的全場配樂大合唱，相當的震撼。當你聽到這首歌相信也會有同感，也有似曾相識的感覺，記住，最精彩的在後半段,而且一定要聽完。當然這首歌中有一句歌詞很喜歡

"I"ve got all my life to live,

I"ve got all my love to give and I"ll survive"

最後再交代一下這首歌的背景，1978年 春天Gloria Gaynor在歐洲登臺時不小心跌落舞臺，使得Gloria Gaynor 脊髓受損並臥病在床達9個月之久，加上覆健期間母親又去世，這許多的打擊幾乎讓她崩潰。出院後，她寫下這首 I Will Survive 證明自己戰勝了怯懦。

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 learn 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"ve known for just one second you"d 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

Did I 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.

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 feel like droppin" in

And just expect me to be free,

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 hurt me with goodbye

Did I 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.

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

Did I 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.

I will survive.

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 feel like droppin" in

And just expect me to be free,

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 hurt me with goodbye

Did I 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.

I will survive.
