This "Gloria" music video is a tribute to Laura Branigan, a four-time Grammy Award nominee, who died at the age of 52 from cerebral aneurysm in August 2004.
Branigan's high-octane remake of Gloria (lyrics by Trevor Veitch) was a top disco hit of the 1980s. It stayed on the US Billboard Hot 100 for 36 weeks, a record for a solo female artist at the time.
Gloria was in Branigan's words "a character study of a girl that's running too fast for her own steps."
The song appeared in the 1983 movie Flashdance (starring Jennifer Beals & Michael Nouri) but was not included in its soundtrack album.
The original version of Gloria is a 1979 Italian pop song written and composed by Umberto Tozzi and Giancarlo Bigazzi.
Video made by: fkwk101 (Yukon Audio-visual Workshop).

Leí en algún lado que esta diosa se murió muy joven que pena.

Ella era símbolo de sensualidad y música norteamericana. Él, un latino que había encantado al mundo entero. Parecían culturalmente "demasiado lejanos" como para siquiera compartir preferencias artísticas, pero a fines de los 90,' una curiosa conexión acabó convirtiéndolos en la pareja más querida y mediática de la escena musical..

RECORDANDO LOS 80S... Un Luis Miguel en plena pubertad y cambio de voz... obtiene un rotundo éxito con este tema... dejando atrás para siempre su imagen de intérprete infantil.

What a great actress Keira Knightley is. She nailed this part so elegantly.
What a story of one of France's most successful authors.
It also showed how a country girl was tortured by picking the wrong man. But on the other hand he did make her into what she became?

Negotiating Brexit.
It was a chaotic week for negotiations
- UK Prime Minister Theresa May announced a preliminary agreementwith the EU that laid out the terms of Brexit. That deal earned her cabinet's approval.
- But many in government aren't on board. Two high-ranking ministers resigned (causing the pound to drop), and the deal faces an uphill battle in Parliament.
Tying it all together: As the March 29 deadline zooms closer and UK officials drop like flies, a "no deal" Brexit seems like a real possibility.
That's scaring companies
One of the benefits of membership in the EU (besides early bird check-in) is the "Single Market," which allows goods and services to move between countries without being bothered by regulatory hurdles.
But...if the UK leaves the EU before working out a trade agreement, walls would come back up. And visions of a "Day After Tomorrow"-like scenario, complete with clogged ports and trucks stuck in traffic waiting for customs inspections, are keeping multinational execs up at night.
Let's make it real with a few examples:
- BMW is stockpiling parts, warehouse space, and parking lots for its Mini brand (which is produced in England) in case its supply chain grinds to a halt, per the WSJ.
- The NYT describes how the flower trade, a global operation spanning from Kenya to the Netherlands to the UK, relies on a "continuous, unimpeded flow of goods." Brexit "looms like a giant speed bump."
Zoom out: While a "no deal" Brexit might eventually be averted, just the possibility that it might happen is already disrupting business operations and causing anxiety over global trade.
