Laura Branigan performs live "Power Of Love" at the variety talk show "Way Off Broadway" on Lifetime Television hosted by Joy Behar.
"Power Of Love" was originally recorded by Jennifer Rush in 1984, then later covered by Air Supply, Laura, Celine Dion and many others. Laura recorded the song for her fifth studio album "Touch", released in mid-1987. The single "Power Of Love" was released in October 1987 and reached number 26 on the US Billboard Hot 100 in December, becoming Branigan's seventh and final top-40 entry. "Power of Love" also peaked at number 19 on Billboard's Hot Adult Contemporary chart.
Branigan would say about this song: "There's a song on this album that to me is the ultimate in singing. It's a real emotional tear-your-heart-out kind of song. It's a classic torch song with today's feeling. I think those are the ones that live on forever." "It has a range that keeps going on and on. It is really challenging vocally and yet it is really emotional. Emotion of the most important thing for me." In this way, the song became one of Laura's favorite songs as well as one of the most brilliant and outstanding pieces of her legacy.
