For me, vocally speaking Laura Branigan's take on The Power of Love is the best. The grit, the rawness, the raspy tone in her voice and the amount of emotion she puts into her performance is otherworldly. I am aware about Jennifer Rush's version and I actually love several of Jennifer's songs such as Heart Over Mind, If You're Ever Gonna Lose My Love, I Come Undone, Ring of Ice, Wings of Desire, Love Get Ready, Destiny, etc and I do think her voice is amazing as well and even though she is the original performer and she co-wrote the song and even though I also love Jennifer's take on The Power of Love, I still stick with Laura's. With that being said, this performance unfortunately is NOT live although there are a couple of truly live performances of Laura's version of The Power of Love that you can check out.

We had extra room at our table and I asked Her to join Us and She did, We talked a little about the album and how She was going to be on the "Johnny Carson Show" and just had a Blast. I would run into Her now and again in and around Hollywood and would always be met with a Back POPPING Hug and We'd talk about everything that was going on outside of Her music (just to get away from that)...

She had an exceptional voice and remains one of the most underated artists I'm aware of. So many great songs that weren't the hits they should have been. Everyone is hung up on Gloria and Selfcontrol, both great songs but there were so many more. The Lucky One, Ti Amo, Shattered Glass...Etc Etc and that's before you even get into the songs that were album tracks only. Such a sad loss of a wonderful entertainer.

Power of Love by Laura was a slow burner on the Billboard Hot 100. The song debuted at #97 on October 24, 1987 on the Billboard Hot 100 and spent an incredible EIGHTEEN weeks on the charts peaking at #26 on January 9, 1988 for two consecutive weeks in that position. It spent NINE weeks in the Top 40, alone with a minor char position! It slowly fell of the chart finally ending its 18 consecutive weeks chart run at # 98 on February 20, 1988. There was no official music video and it's success is largely attributed to radio airplay and strong record sales. Laura herself said the label, Atlantic Records, failed to promote it properly because those who heard it on the radio, couldn't find it in the record stores and record areas that carried the 45, weren't promoting the record. It was a travesty of justice because Laura poured all of her voice into the song and should have been a major hit for her.

I think this is the best version of the song, because of the emotional grit sound she adds to it.

Laura Branigan and Kate Bush (who I've also seen you review and love) are by far my two favourite artists. They're very different in many ways, but both make you really feel, really move you, by the range and power and emotion in their voices. They are both masters of it. I highly recommend other songs from Laura, some of her lesser known ones, including ones she wrote herself like Didn't We Almost Win It All (don't confuse it with the similar sounding Whitney song, which is also a great song). Never In A Million Years is one of the most emotive songs I've ever heard. Solitaire, one of her bigger songs (it was top 5 in my homeland, Australia), is unbelievably good. She didn't write as much as Kate - Kate possesses song-writing excellence beyond compare - but Laura's voice is astonishing. While I'm mentioning Kate, definitely check out some of the few live performances available from her. She's amazing live as well. There's a live version of Kashka from Baghdad on KZbin that's remarkable. And the live version of James And The Cold Gun from the 1979 tour (live at Hammersmith) has got to be one of the best live performances - literally live art-rock - of all time. It's better than the studio recording. I can't praise it enough. There's also a fantastic live version of Breathing - the only time she performed it live apparently - from the 1986 Comic Relief. Some thoughts!

The first time that I ever heard this song was when Air Supply did it. I loved the song the first time I heard it. A bit down the road, when I heard Laura was doing it, I couldn't wait to hear it, because she was my absolute favorite singer. Talk about nailing it! After watching this video, I have seen all the comments from others expressing which version they prefer. To each their own for sure, but here's my take. Honestly, Jennifer Rush's version and Celine's version have subtle differences between them, both in the vocal delivery and the production. There is no significant difference in one from the other. Laura's version is more similar to Air Supply's in production value and also vocally, HOWEVER, as so many have already said, Laura absolutely put's 100% of herself into singing this song, and the more dramatic production lends itself well to her delivery. For some reason Air Supply changed some of the lines (and' I'm not referring to the chorus), and it ends up a bit clumsy sounding if you ask me. I've always been puzzled as to why Laura's version didn't become a SMASH! I guess it was a timing thing. Perhaps, it should have been the lead single, and since Shattered Glass wasn't a big hit, radio didn't pay as much attention to the 2nd single. I feel like Laura came about a couple years too early, and that she'd have done better if she'd arisen in the late 80's, who knows? It's irrelevant now anyhow, but what does matter is that Laura continues to be discovered, and that is wonderful and amazing, and she has a tremendous and dedicated person guarding her legacy and continuing to promote Laura around the world by updating and participating in a website and interacting with fans around the globe. Her name is Kathy, and Laura did well leaving things in her hands. BRAVO! Thanks to Derek for contributing to the continued discovery of the amazing singer, Laura Branigan!

During this time in music there were alot of great women singers that weren't writers who were competing for the best songs to sing. Tina Turner, Cher, Celine Dion, Bonnie Tyler and Laura. Many songs were shared and recorded and released by two different female artists. Simply the Best was written by Cher's boyfriend at the time Ricky Sambora. The song was recorded and released by both Bonnie Tyler and Tina Turner. Another dual recorded released Celine and Laura song was Unison. Laura again wins due to the song emotion. Celines' version has one of the first raps ever heard on a song. I Found Someone was a song released by both Cher and Laura.

Yes Jennifer Rush did it in 1985 and it made #2 in The U.K. Laura sings with so much power, emotion, passion and strength powerhouse earth shattering voice! She is so my favorite female vocal singer. I always thought she was so beautiful all over and a brunette my choice women. But man yeah Derek that voice really made me fall in love with her! I cry and close my eyes I like all her albums and live shows with her band I am mega fan for years! I have other suggestions she made great music other ballads but that by far is her best vocal power ballad. Gone way way too nice so amazing! nice reaction Derek I am a really good drummer. I plan on playing some of her songs live this summer in Pittsburgh this on the menu and some other of her goodies. I saw you react to some awesome Gary Numan and band songs 1 or 2. He has passion just a different kind of singer then her I am a diehard, passion and fanatical like Laura as well as The Tubes. I think you should react to ''Heart'' a great album as track 4 on ''The Self Control'' '84 album.
