Better than Celines version 100 percent.

[@Zero8880]

Laura's version is so raw and powerful. My favorite version of this song by far.

[@Nugtroen]

Same here, man. I've listened to the CD and JR versions countless times, but nothing can beat the raw and saddest emotion of Laura's version.

[@Georgejmh]

Ditto!

[@garydunn9615]

Laura Branigan is still my favorite ❤.

[@mrburns1203]

Best version of Power of Love by far. She was amazing and very underrated!

[@user-qu7lm2rc3p]

과소평가 되지 않았습니다. 단지 알려지지 않았습니다. 고음은 낼 수 있습니다. 그러나 감정전달의 수단으로 목을 긁는 기교는 간절함을 전달합니다. 하늘나라에서 편히 지내시길 바랍니다.

[@user-wq3ty4uj1p]

You are wrong nobody sings it like Jennifer rush 😊

[@G02372]

“What did I just watch?” Magic

[@grahamgreenlee9874]

If you dug Laura, check out "Gloria," then "Self Control." She was a big 80s artist who rarely gets talked about anymore. But her voice was one of a kind.

[@davidw7]

Yes Yes... my 2 favorites also. "Self Control" by Laura - was something else... from the movie - Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. Gloria and this song are great to react to. MTV found the video too risque' to play but Europe and the world did play it. "The song was about losing your self-control to the night or to someone," Laura said in a interview. "We had a man representing the night, wearing a mask. There were all these great dancers wearing masks by Willa Shalit. There's a shot where the man comes into my bedroom, taking me into the night. He appears and disappears. The video was also directed by William Friedkin who did (The French Connection, The Exorcist).

[@grahamgreenlee9874]

@@davidw7 One of my all time favorite music videos.

[@brettmiller7138]

She was always amazing. She died too young. Celine did this song as well. These were my college years. Loved her

[@CCCP-sr9ou]

JENNIFER RUSH BEST 1 ! Laura can't handle this song!

[@barrytooley6724]

@@CCCP-sr9ou Gimme a break

[@Jamie-tl4or]

Astounding!! Without a doubt the dominant version!! Gives me shivers!! Passion to the max!!! Whoever thinks Jennifer or Celines version is better needs their soul checked over!!

[@bobaquatics6776]

I like the original by Jennifer the most. I think she has a way prettier voice overall. But thats just my preference, she was big in europe in the 80s so her voice is well known to me.

[@scottfarley3644]

The best version of this song, PERIOD! Laura grabs you and hold on until She is damn good and ready to let go. All other versions are a performance. Laura's is raw emotion and believable.

[@user-he4xb9fd5x]

The power of Laura's voice.

[@Mntguy-nr9vl]

The climax to her song Solitaire,she holds that note till next week as loud as she can go.

[@viviennepastor3188]

Incredible isn’t she. Just can’t believe anyone can have such a powerhouse voice with such control. She was gorgeous too.

[@eleanordockery5423]

Laura's Version So Beautiful &She Had So Much Raw Talent. ❤❤❤❤

[@sasapejcin3568]

One of the best american singers of all time!

[@MRIB-pro]

Just heard this song on sound cloud in a ballard mix, I ran down to KZbin. The power of internet immortalizing history.

[@jodij6280]

She had a great voice. Sadly, she died at the age of 52 from a brain aneurysm.

[@inukshuksixtyfour1164]

RIP Laura...She was a force. ❣️🌹✨️

[@butterflymama0838]

I was going to comment the same thing. She passed in 2004. She was so amazing! I was a teen back then. She was definitely one of my favorite 80's female artists from those days. R. I. P Laura 😢

[@SuperElizabeth54]

I think she was 46 when she died,

[@AM-jm5ux]

I met her once back stage at a club in Miami and she couldn’t have been sweeter and she even autographed a flyer I was holding in my hand and then a second one to take home to a friend who was ill. I’ll never forget her kindness and beautiful music. ❤

[@venusmacawile924]

the best powerful voice one and only laura

[@mftoms59]

Laura does an excellent job here, Jennifer Rush would approve, RIP Laura. Fantastic voice, nice reaction.

[@hounddogtunes3203]

We had a lot of amazing performers in the 80s. So glad people are beginning to hear them again. We had such a variety then too. I wish it were more like that now instead of 10 songs by one performer on the Top 40. And we had way more songs about love rather than lust.

[@terrylewis_]

Laura Branigan had an amazing voice, such a sad loss... my favorite song is Self Control, but that is mostly because it's 80's-tastic. :)

[@EchoesDaBear]

My sister had her cassette for Self Control, and I listened to it constantly (I was 5). Absolutely fell in love with her voice and that song! #1 track for sure!

[@pammcnary]

I love every single song on “Touch”!!

[@rondesrosier4160]

She was an incredible singer.

[@justme-ll1qz]

People can talk about Jennifer Rush, Celine Dion doing this song. But Laura Branigan OWNS this song

[@gdouglas999]

This has always been my favorite version---by far.

[@davidbakko6082]

Laura is my favorite, power of love is my favorite song, strong very intense

[@juanantoniolopez8351]

without a doubt the best and most powerful

[@carolyncappitelli1460]

Laura was a force. Gloria is the next one to check out. Great reaction!

[@bartdrennon1764]

While the rock lovers were dissing disco, it was producing some of the best vocalists the world has seen. Especially females.

[@G02372]

Angel on Earth ❤

[@filmsensei]

I am so glad you covered this version. Celine Dion has a nice cover and while technically very good as Celine always is, I highly favor Laura's version for being "edgier", the way she shreds her voice on this is amazing. I still miss hearing Laura's voice. She died of a brain hemorrhage/aneurysm several years ago. The man hosting is Alan Thicke of "Growing Pains" and father of singer Robin Thicke.

[@ronsmock1879]

Laura and Celine share another song called Unison. Laura again has the better version.

[@ronsmock1879]

If you want to hear a crazy good Celine rock/pop song check out I Feel Too Much.

[@fredyovi]

Thanks for reviewing Laura this song 🎧 a the best and most powerful version of this song ,

[@scotties.3414]

I have all of Laura's CDs and was her biggest fan. If you want to hear her range then definitely check out Solitaire, Shattered Glass, How Am I Supposed to Live Without You, I Found Someone and Gloria. My favorite Laura song is not a famous top 10 hit but should have been nonetheless. It's called The Sweet Hello the Sad Goodbye, and it will haunt you.

[@peterdennis4394]

For an impressive male cover of this song, check out Air Supply's version. But yeah, Laura had incredible range. RIP, she is missed.

[@nadinefrandsen6087]

Yes!! Agreed. Russell Hitchcock of Air Supply❤️

[@lifeandtext]

I don’t think anyone will beat Laura’s rendition😮❤

[@gary3341]

What a vibrato, fabulous, miss her badly

[@MilosDaddy]

Her voice is a forcxe of nature!

[@duntrolling8876]

She makes it seem effortless. She was one of a kind. Unique.

[@EmjayBaxton]

Self Control, Solitaire and The Lucky one are some of Laura's best songs. She was so talented.

[@truckrboat]

Celine dion covered this song 6 years later. Laura B was a power pop queen of the mid to late 80’s. If you want to hear her power in An uptempo song check out Gloria. You can’t go wrong on any of her songs

[@loudofrio2325]

Laura Brannigan, THE BEST

[@FernandoCcenteMorales-hr8by]

I love LAURA

[@jas137]

I had such a huge crush on Laura when I was 11. I still have a visceral reaction to hearing her songs. Another band from that time frame that takes me right back to 1982 is The Motels- simply haunting.

[@monicataylor9977]

Motels yes! Only the Lonely

[@jas137]

Yes, Only the Lonely and Suddenly Last Summer could almost be a single video- same haunting vibe. They were a minimalist version of new wave coming out of LA in late 70s, but always had a haunting, yearning, quality that truly found full expression by 1982-83.

[@jodij6280]

Loved The Motels.

[@ed.z.]

🔥

[@karehelene]

GLORIA. That's all any of need to say.

[@raymondreynolds5898]

That is one of the greatest performances ever. It gives me goosebumps every time I hear it.

JENNIFER RUSH BEST 1!!! Laura can't handle this song!

[@alidap2061]

@@CCCP-sr9ou I prefer this and Celine's version over Jennifer's version because I don't Like music in Jennifer's version!

[@brianh9358]

Actually Celine Dion did do a cover version of this song - so maybe that is also why you had "Celine Dion" vibes. :)

[@jaimecruz5199]

With this video I fell in love with Laura, with that passion any man would fall in love with her.

[@michaeldishler9673]

yes I loved Laura

[@malcongrued]

the best performance ever

[@primemoverRR]

Laura Branigan was one of the biggest female stars of the 1980s. She had some monster hits with songs like Gloria (#2), Self Control (#4) and several more that broke into the top 40. One of my favorite albums of hers, simply called "Laura Branigan" from 1990, didn't get as much airplay, but has some really awesome hits with songs like Moonlight on Water, Let Me In and Bad Attitude.

[@Caprizonica]

I love Self Control by her.

[@skipbohrer]

Got to see Laura in Las Vegas at the Hilton. She Melted the crowd with all of her songs and voice. I felt very fortunate to have a front row seat to really see how powerful her craft was.

[@snahg2356]

No no no no, you HAVE TO DO How am I Supposed To Live Without You

[@jotave65]

This live version is just my favorite. I love L.B. force, passion and beauty. Some people prefer the original version from Jennifer Rush, others Celine Dion version, Air Supply version and other artists versions. Any version is different so I like and enjoy them all.

[@susanp.7954]

Gone too soon! Ms. Branigan a class act and what a voice!

[@daz_n]

Would love to see you compare Jennifer Rush's original.

[@nickey66]

Solitaire and this song are my favorites. I remember when they played her music on the radio and still have all her albums. For that vocal power please listen to Solitaire, you wont be disappointed. RIP sweet Laura.

[@ronsmock1879]

This isn't the whole version of the song. She has many songs with this emotion.

[@nautika1]

Laura Branigan version is the best such a voice and passion

Brings back good memories... I grew up with her music... and it still causes goose pimples 40 years later.

[@tinastanley4444]

❤ RIP. May I recommend her song. OVER YOU.

[@jaear5769]

I fell in love with laura's voice ever since i heard her youtube videos specially that song.

[@ginalashley1265]

One of the most underrated singers in my opinion along with Irene Cara and Russell Hitchcock from Air Supply who also does an amazing cover of this song. I love her song Self Control and of course Gloria. She died way too young. RIP

[@erickoenig5994]

Alan Thicke is the host. He was the dad on Growing pains. Laura Branigan is such a power house! Love the channel

[@marke7441]

And also father of pop star Robin Thicke. Alan Thicke had a late night show (it bombed) so maybe this is from that.

[@Mntguy-nr9vl]

When I was a kid I walked in and the song was playing in my mom was crying and I said what was wrong? She said she had never heard anything so beautiful. That's how I became aware of Laura branigan because I'm a little younger than when she was popular. She had resonance let me tell you something not a lot of range but her chest belts our next level beyond Whitney Celine and Mariah it can almost sound a little shrill like she could break glass. That's the best version of this song.

[@diegoshepherd3464]

Laura Branigan is Master Class. Check out Forever Young, Moonlight On Water by Laura live.

[@trevorjames426]

She was utterly amazing, loved her so much. “The Lucky One” and “Self Control” are my favourites but soooo many great songs ❤

[@johngrisanti547]

Pure talent!!!!!

[@robertalynn1804]

Great reaction SalvoG! I love your reaction when you say “what did I just watch” and how much you appreciate their voice! So sad she passed away so young! RIP Laura Branigan🙏

[@timtubemusic]

Years ago i would go to Kirker's Steak house in latham and Laura was working there. So glad she made it big before her untimely death. She had such a great voice and style.

[@richardmccarley281]

without a doubt the BEST cover version of this song!

[@karenladd1110]

That was my exact reaction after hearing Laura. Celine who??? She was AMAAAAZING.

Have all her music. What a voice... Such power. Miss her Xxx A 🇿🇦

Thank you for the review !Laura's voice was amazing so powerful yet this growl please listen to her perform will you still love me tomorrow and the song touch from her touch cd

you have the best reaction emotion on the song. I like it. That is how I felt when first time I heard this song from her. She is the one for this song

[@thomasbealsjr9313]

My favorite version

[@angelvalle9963]

Laura was the goods a real life song bird .

[@calvinflamand8965]

Can you imagine first time hearing this omgoodness

[@GaryDouglas-lj5bz]

In my opinion this is by far the best version of Jennifer Rush's original. Laura's voice is so much stronger and more emotional than Jennifer's or Celine's.

[@bob_._.]

The host is Alan Thicke, Robin's father. He had a late night talk show back in the day. "Gloria" is a must listen.

[@wileysaichek9508]

Self Control and Gloria are my favorites. My favorite version of this song is Jennifer Rush's the co-writer who first recorded it.

[@dunringill1747]

I'm glad you enjoyed this - great choice for a Laura Branigan intro song. I hope you react to more of her work. This woman could SING! She made it look effortless. Even when she was belting it out live, you could easily tell that she still had a lot more power waiting in the tank. RIP Laura. Sadly, she died far too young from a brain aneurysm (at the age of 52).

[@robinbeers6689]

Next up, please do "Gloria". The same gorgeous voice but a banger of a song.

[@janhouse1690]

seconding the recommendations of ‘Gloria’, ‘Solitaire’, ‘Ti Amo’,

[@janetwhitten2781]

I'm biased but the 80's had so so many great songs. From middle school through college took me through the 80's and I still love that time in music.

[@patmarie2166]

She was a very Talented singer. Powerful voice.

[@spikeysnack]

I know you do the hits on this channel, but Laura Branigan has a deep catalog of originals and covers. One of my favorites is a cover of "Forever Young" by Alphaville. Must hear. Oh she sings in Spanish as well, and some of her Spanish language songs are her best.

[@EchoesDaBear]

Great reaction Salvo! HIGHLY suggest checking Laura's Self Control, The Lucky One & Gloria! She had (RIP) amazing pipes! Personally, Jennifer Rush's version is the best & definitive, but Branigan did a marvelous job with this beautiful track! Cheers.

[@davidspring5013]

masterful job by her the Celine version is equally great! take a look

[@josefinelagerstrom2643]

Wow, i didn't know Laura covered this BEFORE Celine Dion. 😱🤯

[@hounddogtunes3203]

You've heard the song "Blurred Lines" by Robin Thicke, right? The host is his dad, Alan Thicke. I was a big fan of Laura Branigan when I was a teen in the 1980s. She was amazing!

[@hugocaero8285]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@calvinflamand8965]

Huge fan here

[@ZebraDazzle66]

Although I am a huge fan of Laura Branigan, when it comes to this song I still have to say Celine Dion’s version is impeccable. My favorite Laura Branigan song is How Am I Supposed To Live Without You. Sadly, like too many others she was taken from us way too soon. 😢

[@helenespaulding7562]

Don’t know this artist by name. But WOW did she have pipes on her!
