I Will Survive b/w R.N.C. 2020: Vinyl 7" Single

Anohni has shared an emotive cover of Gloria Gaynor’s 1978 classic ‘I WIll Survive’. The track was a staple of her early live shows and opens with a graceful string arrangement by Maxim Moston, paired with piano performed by Anohni.

“It was the first song I ever sang in nightclubs in NYC when I was 20 years old. I sang it hundreds of times. In those days I sang it thinking of Marsha P. Johnson and the underground queer community struggling to survive in the face of AIDS. Now it seems to me like an anthem for the future of life on earth.”
