2019 now. :-) ABSOLUTELY TIMELESS!!!

The perfect way to describe Laura Branigan in a summed up way is to say that she was an amazing human being, period. RIP Laura.

Rip!!! Sadly missed along with the 80's

Laura had a beautiful voice. She was beautiful herself. "Solitaire" is my favorite song of hers. That note she holds just singing that word is just stunning. You are missed, and loved, Laura.

Amen to that, Johnny I have the album that has that song on it. Her ability to hold that high note without breakup is UNBELIEVABLE. My speakers have a high frequency tweeter that really DELIVERS her INCREDIBLE vocal cords. Such range, such beauty, such MISSED!

Laura Branigan & Melissa Manchester are my 2 favorite female singers. Too bad about Laura's death ; I never had the opportunity to hear her at a live concert performance. I've seen Melissa. Manchester in concert at least 6 times. In fact, at the last concert I was at, I was lucky enough to be able to go backstage after the concert was done & personally meet Melissa Manchester ; Face-to-face. A dream come true for Maria and I.

hindsight is truly 20/20. looking back i soooo wanna relive those days and do it all a lil different. the eightes. god bless those lost times.

Man, that girl could sing! This is one of my all-time favorite songs. I love the way she just belts it out there at the end. Screw American Idol, this what a vocalist should sound like.

Laura had a VERY BIG voice. Her belts were amazing and effortless, Her lows is amazing too. She showed actual *talent* along with Cyndi Lauper. If only she was still living here singing her butt off infront of more than 1,000,000 people and making hits. But she had a bad farewell. Rest in peace, Laura Branigan (July 3, 1957 - August 26, 2004).

This is music at its finest. Laura was a wonderful artist.

I never met or knew Laura Branigan, but I wish that I did meet and/or know her. It crushed me when she died. She's one of my all-time favorite celebrity crushes. I really liked her, and I miss her. RIP Laura.

She its a Great and Amazing Singer, excelent voice. RIP. My dear Laura Branigan

Gone but her strong voice will last forever Long live 1984

Laura, you are well missed. such a great voice. the 80s music was awesome with your contribution. rip darling

The passion on her face in the recording studio when she is singing the words. Amazing. You could really tell she was feeling the words she was singing.

Great singer that left us way too soon.

Laura hit #7 in Billboard, 5-21-83. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx! Have a great week! RIP, Miss Laura!

She's gone but her songs and voice will live forever:)

My favorite song by the GREAT Laura Branigan! RIP, and she is one of the rare ladies I would go straight for!

2:36 to 2:55 WOW!! No one sings like that now. No one CAN sing like that now. And on the second "Solitaire" she goes even higher! Epic voice.

What an outstanding voice, RIP Laura........

At work, we were discussing how much music has changed and remember Laura who didn't use autotune but all these "modern" artists that do. RIP Laura!

Doesn't get any better than this. Laura rock on always!!!!!!!!

Back in the day, Whenever we got to the bar my friend Seku would always get to the jukebox and immediately put this song in first... every time. Great song!

Lesson. You don't truly appreciate the good things you have, until they're gone. Just as many didn't realize the gift that Laura was to us until she made her journey to Heaven. Miss'ya Darlin' (so very much)!

R.I.P dear angel. What an angelic voice

Billboard's #59 song of '83. Diane Warren's 1st credit on a hit song. Laura hit #7 pop, #16 AC, in Billboard. God bless! RIP, Miss Laura!

I love these "What goes around, comes around" songs. Songs like this and Journey's "Lovin' Touchin' Squeezin'", etc.

my friend Laura Branigan singing live and never sounding so good....we learned a few things from each other. I opened for her several times very early in our recording careers. Lawrence Leritz . RIP xoxo

Awesome legacy left behind! Thanks to her memory!

One of my faves from Laura...Love the power vocals.

miss laura everyday, self control album is the bomb

She is So Missed! She is Gorgeous!

kinder gentler happier times life less complicated better music and more compassion and integrity of spirit, if ya do go back i'll go with you.

Always loved that note that she holds for a long time, only talented singers can do that with great breath control.

2019. Best female voice ever, imho. 🎶

Excellent!wisdom in terms of Music, thank you so much IDOL Laura.

this was Laura's best song. Just listening to her songs on here makes you realize what a fantastic singer she was. So sad she's been gone for over a decade now.

God she had such an awesome voice. Her emotion and power always impressed me...still does :)

One of my favorite 80s songs. I was very sad to hear she passed away.

Saw her in concert in Syracuse NY just before she passed away---even got to hug her! I'll never forget it. RIP, Laura...

Miss her

anyone listening in 2018?one of the best underrated female voices back in the eighties...

It was great to see her show the Loser "the door". The song certainly displayed Laura's exceptional vocal talents. As for life lessons........one might conclude that you don't truly appreciate the good things that you have, until they are gone. Just as many didn't cherish what Laura gave to us until she moved on to Heaven. Miss'ya Darlin' (so very much).

Laura, you will never be forgotten

Wow.....those notes she hits towards the end of the song!

a class singer .......rest in peace Laura .

great old video!! brilliant thoses days!! i miss them!!!

Lovely. Solitaire by Laura Branigan. One of those songs that starts slowly and suddenly changes to an interesting mid / uptempo.

She was so underated she is 1 fantastic singer rip laura

What a loss of talent one of my favs

Awesome!!,a true diva..miss you laura xxxxxxxx

I've always liked the camera work at 2:37, where her "Solitaire" vocal is so strong that it appears the microphone is being forced away from her.

davidne It's my favorite part of the song, I love the cry in her voice. The first time I heard it I was filled with so much energy and goosebumps.😅 This along with Self Control, are my favorite of Laura.

Yes she had also the perfect technique to sing this voice-thriller.Anyway I think she could sing it live like the studio version but often on live performances it is hard to catch the breath by a so lively song and the breath is the key. Watch "The power of love" - she had all what you needed to sing awesome!!! She was simply the best!!!

Listening to this song and thinking back, this lovely, talented lady pretty much captures the sound of 1980's pop music. Shame we don't have music and artists like her anymore.

me too.never met her.but loved her.what a loss to her family and friends,and her fans worldwide.

even though she has gone to the lord w her music will always live on forever we will always love you laura

I fell in love with Laura when she belted out this tomb you could see that she was a real singer didn't need no gimmicks it's a shame she never got the recognition she deserved but as a mute fan of hers let's try to get her into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame where she belongs that's where she'll get her recognition

Rest In Peace Laura Branigan

4 people wouldnt know a classic ballad if it smacked em in the face. Love you Laura.

always loved laura's music. she was lost before her time

This is my favorite song of hers. I had this album and played this track over and over.

The start of this song makes me feel very nostalgically sad...very poignant. I love this song.

RIP Laura Branigan I do really Luv ya Songs Laura Branigan - Self control, Gloria and others Hits Juz RIP

one of the all time classics...incredible!!!!!

WHAT A SWEET VOICE

Just WOW!! What a voice!!

Loved her music and voice. She left us to soon. An Angel. RIP.

Great!!! RIP Laura

RIP Laura You are truly missed. My boyfriend Ron , my mum, and I are big fans of Laura's

You know it's sad to think of this song and the fact that she died. Her voice was amazing.

Beautiful song I lovet no me canso de escucharla. Era mi cantante preferida era una muñeca de lo linda y humilde que era como persona

gracias por los hermosos recuerdos que me trae este video, sensacional Laura

Gran voz de Laura Branigan, que durará por toda la eternidad

She rocks it

SÓ FOI APENAS A CANTORA MAIS LINDA E TALENTOSA DO MUNDO. SAUDADES. PARA SEMPRE TE AMAREMOS LAURA...

I just found out about her death...RIP LAURA... you'll always be one of my favorite female singers of all TIME

miss laura,every day

You've had a change of heart, but mine just couldn't wait. No, no, you found out you loved me...just a little too late!

Вечная память этой замечательной певице!!!

miss her

taken way to soon -- what a beautiful voice -- singing in heaven with the angels --

I had no idea she had died, just decided to 'youtube' her as I was nostagically thinking about the 80s. In Britain she was big in 1983 with 'Gloria' and the 'Flashdance' soundtrack but then sank without a trace, but her songs are always played at 80s themed nights, what a shame...

Laura Branigan had a great pair of...lungs!

Viva 80's!!

AMO ESTA MUJER

I agree, Carlos! Thanks goodness for the music of yester year!

Gone too soon. I miss you Laura :(

That's because your heart and love is still back there in that time - we live for today but we can never go back into time.but those of us all that come from that time will forever live it. because it will always live and be apart of us in our hearts and minds "FOREVER" P.S. I AM 48YRS OLD AND I LOVE THE 1970s AND 1980s
