Pop icon Gloria Gaynor to give first post-lockdown performance in Europe in Warsaw
Gloria Gaynor will come to Warsaw for her first post-lockdown performance in Europe on June 29 to sing “I will survive”, the CEEQA, an organizer of the New Europe property sector’s flagship annual event, announced. Released at the break of the disco scene in 1978 initially as a B-side track, despite Gaynor’s insistence the song would be a hit for her album Love Tracks, it rapidly became the go-to dance floor and radio soundtrack globally through the 80s and beyond.
It became a powerful LGBTQ empowerment anthem in the AIDS-ridden 90s, a feminine rights anthem, a broken love anthem for millions, and more recently the anthem of the French football team.
"We're so delighted to be finally doing this show, it will be a special moment for us and for the audience, particularly in light of what's happening in Eastern Europe right now the rallying call of “I will survive” has meaning and resonance for us all," Gaynor said.
