Branigan had the BEST voice in the industry. Whether she sang disco or ballads that voice was absolutely awesome. When she sang a song ....it became HER song. She will be forever missed. She was currently working on a new CD and hopefully this work will see print.

we'll miss her...

Wow this is a shocker, didn't know. RIP

Gloria for Laura

I'm still not over her.....I just saw her perform at the Disco Ball in Atlantic City in May. What a shame!

I'm so sorry she passed on at such a young age. She's so beautiful.

Laura,

you had me at GLORIA,
I hope you are in heaven singing and dancing,

I love you, always

Wow ! This is truly shocking. Did not know. Too young to pass away.

Wondeful singer, personality, very down to earth.

"Never in A million Years" is such a wonderful ballad.

GOD BLESS YOU AND I WILL MISS YOU VERY MUCH. REST IN PEACE LOVE BRIANNA, BEYONCE', MARISA RIZER-WILLIAMS AND OUR DAD ALLEN J. WILLIAMS.

I DIDNT HEAR ANYTHING ABOUT HER DYING - GEEZZ!!! I GUESS THE NEWS ONLY TALKS ABOUT CERTAIN THINGS NOWADAYS... SHE WAS REALLY A GREAT SINGER

Laura Branigan was in a clase all by herself, wether singing disco or ballads she brought the best. I miss her and her music, hopefully we'll get to listen to the work she left behind.
Rest in peace wonderful lady!

Fell for her Ti Amo back in the 80's. Such a young person with so much life, can't believe she's past away.

i met laura at a restaruant club in new york performing gloria called sofias. she will be missed by all who knew her. rest in peace laura.

Every now and again, you hear a story that breaks your heart, and this is one of them. Laura left the business for many years to devote herself to care of her ill husband, and she did that until the day he died. Sadly just when she was coming out of her grieving period and about to concentrate on Laura, she suddenly passes. It just doesn't seem fair, but there are just some things in life you will never understand. What a wonderful woman she was, with a beautiful and powerful voice. Sleep with the angels, Laura.

One of the best Laura Brannigan songs I came across to listen & play was the 12" remix of "Spanish Eddie". What a voice, what a song! Still keep a copy which I listen to once in a while. Will miss her voice and great looks.

I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE WHAT I'M READING, I'M IN SHOCK. AT FIRST I WAS THINKING THIS WAS A SAD JOKE BUT NOW I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY. I AM SO SORRY, THANKS LAURA FOR BRINGING GLORIA TO MY SELF CONTROL, I WILL LOVE YOU FOR EVER BABY GIRL. LOVE MIKE. 06/12/06 NYC

Hi, i live in brazil, loved the disco music and when a friend of mine came back from us telling me bout her show i became even more fan of hers; he sad she was fantastic; i knew that, already, for so long; loved her; miss u, Laura

I always wondered what happened to her... She had such a great voice!!!!

I am extremely prejudice when talking or dealing with the subject of LAURA BRANNIGAN. You see, I knew her personally for many years. As one of my favorite people in this business, I can't help but love her and everything she ever did. Besides having the very BEST voice ever, better than Streisand, Summer, Dion, Houston and Carey. She could hit notes that others wished they could. GLORIA had such energy, it came from deep inside her, and it showed up on the dance floor. It would pack the floor every time it was played. It could be a streight club, it packed the floor. In a gay club, it packed the floor. No matter where you heard it, in a car, in a store, someone walking by with a boom-box, it didn't matter, you wanted to hear the song through its entirety. I mixed for her a twenty-one minute version of GLORIA for her personal use in 1983. She wanted to pay me, I wanted something other than money!! I got neither! DINNER!! But she was my baby, I loved her so. WHAT A VOICE!! I remember going to BACKSTREET in Ft. Lauderdale to see her sing. Scott Blackwell was the deejay, after presenting her to the jubilant crowd, Scott warned me that he would have trouble going back on, that the crowd(mostly gay men) wouldn't let her leave. He was right, it took me, and four huge bouncers to get her out of there. Her reaction was amazement. "For Me?" she questioned. She went back out after Scotty started playing, standing far from the booth and the stage, she appeared on some stairs. The place went nuts, they rushed her. She spent the next two hours signing autographs, and dancin with all these crazy fans. She was hurt emotionally and financially when MTV pulled the video version of SELF-CONTROL. There were rumors that she was"different". She was, she was the best. There was no emotional problems, she wasn't a lesbian, she loved her husband who passed away after a long sickness. I cried when LAURA passed away, but I played GLORIA and I felt much better. After writing this you got one guess what I am going to do next...GLORIA!! I MISS YOU, GOD BLESS.
