"Gloria Gaynor is back! I Wish You Love is her first international release in 15 years and boy it was well worth the wait. The CD has a positive uplifting feel right from the opening dance track 'Got To Be Forever' through to the R 'n B cuts such as 'Running' and the brilliant Survive tinged 'Stronger'. There is something for everyone here and dance fans will be especially happy. Gloria's voice is as articulate and compelling as ever. I was particularly impressed with the sweet ballad 'Let It Rain' which sent shivers down my spine, simply stunning! It is rare to find a CD today where every track leaves you wanting more but this is one such recording. The title cut, I Wish You Love is a future number one record if ever there was one; the message is love and the clever vocals and lyrics make the point in a very now, electro-funk style, sheer class! This CD is a triumphant return by the glorious Ms Gaynor and the voice and production has never been better. I must add that the delightful lady is also looking mouth-wateringly good too! Just check out her video for the current single 'I Never Knew' and get ready to pick your jaw up from the floor, she is sizling hotttt. I predict that the single will top the charts before too long and if there is any justice the album will be up there too. Be good to yourself and buy this CD today. Welcome back Ms Gaynor, never say goodbye. Vernal Scott, London UK."

Gloria has returned with a fabulous collection!

"Gloria Gaynor is back! The original Diva that brought us "Never Can Say Goodbye" and "I Will Survive" returns with 12 wonderful tracks, plus 2 versions of "I Will Survive" on the bonus CD (recorded live in Brazil - one is a Spanglish version). The 3rd bonus mix is the Hex Hector HQ2 Remix of her dance floor anthem "I Never Knew", a joyous tune full of love, life and energy. The CD collection includes the original beautiful ballad of "I Never Knew". Additional highlights include the quiet title track "I Wish You Love", the opening 'disco-style' "Gotta Be Forever", the popular dance songs "Just No Other Way", "Just Keep Thinking About You" and "No One Can Love You More". Gloria gets in touch with her R&B side on "Let it Rain" and "You Keep Running". The bonus CD also features 2 high quality (even in full screen mode) music video's of "I Never Knew" (the original and remixed versions), plus song lyrics, history, a bio and some of Gloria's recipes. A little something for everyone and a must-have for Gloria Gaynor fans! Diva-licious!"

SURVIVED AND PROSPERED

"THIS ALBUM POINTS OUT WHAT A SHAME IT IS WHEN SOMEONE GETS PIGEONHOLED AND IDENTIFIED WITH ONE SONG AND DECADE; TO MISS THIS ALBUM WOULD BE A MISTAKE. GLORIA'S VOICE IS AS GOOD AND CLEAR AS EVER AND THE SONGWRITING AND PRODUCTION ON THIS ALBUM ARE FAR BETTER THOSE FROM, "THE DAY." THE FACT IS, THAT GLORIA HAS GROWN IN HER TASTE FOR MUSIC, WRITERS AND PRODUCERS, AND EACH SONG ON THESE CD'S IS A COMPLETE DELIGHT.

OH....AND I CHALLENGE YOU TO MEMORIZE/SING ALONG WITH THE LYRICS TO THE GREAT TITLE CUT.....GOOD LUCK!"
