THE LOST SINGLES

SHOULD-A BEEN HITS

GLORIA

Umberto Tozzi

1979

"Gloria" became a worldwide hit for Laura Branigan in 1982. The song began as an Italian recording performed by its co-writer Umberto Tozzi. His original was a massive European hit but failed to chart in major markets such as America and Britain. Tozzi recorded a version in English. New lyrics were used for Branigan's remake.

This regular segment looks back on recordings that deserved to become popular singles but failed to attract attention and sales. Check the special Caffé Latté playlist on spotify to finally discover these releases.
