Gaynor. So hiess die glaube ich: Gloria Gaynor oder so ähnlich hat ursprünglich »I will survive« geschrieben und gesungen. Ich schätze die heutige Diversität auf etwa 25 verschiedene Versionen. Die Beste davon ist für mich zweifellos von Cake:
At first I was afraid I was patrified
I kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights just thinking how you've done me wrong and I grew strong,
I learned how to get along
And so you're back from outer space
I just walked in to find you here without that look upon your face
I should have changed my fucking lock, I would have made you leave your key
If I'd have known for just one second you'll be back to bother me
Oh now go
Walk out the door
Just turn around now, 'couse your're not welcome anymore
Were'nt you the one who tried to brake me with desire?
Did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no not I,
I will survive
Yea, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll be alive
I've got all my live to live
I've got all my love to give
I will survive
I will survive
Yea yee
It took all the strenght I had, just not to fall apart
I'm trying hard to mend the peaces of my broken heart
And I spent oh so many night's just feeling sorry for myself
I used cry, but now I hold my head up hight
And you see me with somebody new
I'm not that stupid little person still in love with you
And so you thought you'd just drop by and you expect me to be free,
But now I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving me
Oh now go
Walk out the door
Just turn around now, 'couse your're not welcome anymore
Were'nt you the one who tried to brake me with desire?
Did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no not I,
I will survive
Yea, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll be alive
I've got all my live to live
I've got all my love to give
I will survive
I will survive
Yea yee
