Review by Aytaç KARTAL

Gloria Gaynor’s Disco Diva: A Glittery Throwback That Still Shines (Mostly) Let’s cut to the chase—when you hear “Gloria Gaynor,” your brain likely screams, “I Will Survive!” And yes, it’s here. Twice. But before we get into that, let’s talk about this wild ride of an album from 2001. Released under Snapper Music plc in the UK, Disco Diva is a genre-bending mashup of Electronic, R&B, Funk, Soul, and Urban vibes. It’s like someone threw a bunch of disco balls, neon lights, and glitter into a blender and hit “puree.” The result? A mixed bag of bangers, covers, and… well, some stuff you might just skip. Track Highlights: The Good, The Meh, and The “Wait, What?” First up, let’s talk about Stop! In The Name Of Love. Oh, you thought Diana Ross had dibs on this one? Think again. Gloria takes it and gives it her own diva spin. Her voice carries weight, like she’s personally stopping heartbreak in its tracks while wearing six-inch heels. The funky bassline grooves harder than your grandma at a wedding, and honestly? I can’t unhear it now. It’s stuck in my head like gum on a hot sidewalk. Props to Gloria for making this Motown classic feel fresh(ish). Then there’s Careless Whisper. Yep, THAT Careless Whisper. You know, the one with the sax solo that makes you feel all kinds of dramatic emotions you didn’t ask for. Gloria strips it down and adds her signature soulful flair. It’s not quite George Michael-level iconic, but it works. Like, really works. Listening to it feels like sneaking out of a party only to find yourself slow-dancing alone in the hallway. Weirdly romantic? Maybe. Unexpectedly moving? Absolutely. The Deep Dive: Is It Worth Your Time? Look, this album isn’t perfect. Some tracks feel like they were thrown in just because—hello, double dips on Reach Out (I'll Be There) and Even A Fool Would Let Go. Did anyone actually need two versions? Probably not. But hey, redundancy has never stopped a diva before, so why start now? What saves Disco Diva is Gloria’s powerhouse vocals and her ability to make even the cheesiest songs sound legit. Sure, some remixes (cough Chico & The Gypsies Mix cough) feel more outdated than low-rise jeans, but others bring enough energy to keep you nodding along. Final Thoughts: A Little Messy, A Lot Memorable At the end of the day, Disco Diva is less “masterpiece” and more “guilty pleasure.” It’s the kind of album you throw on during a lazy Sunday cleanup or when you’re trying to impress someone who thinks disco died in the '70s. And honestly? That’s okay. Not every album needs to reinvent the wheel—it just needs to make you move. So, if you’re looking for something nostalgic yet slightly bonkers, give Disco Diva a spin. Just don’t blame me if you catch yourself belting out I Will Survive in the shower… again. P.S. Fun fact: If aliens ever invade Earth, playing Gloria Gaynor might just save us. After all, surviving is kinda her thing.
