You're most welcome Luke! Yes, she sang the stuffin' out of "I Will Survive"!Quote:

She had to return almost everything when she left Motown.Quote:

Amazing huh? How good she is handling interviews, especially when you consider she was restricted from speaking much in the 60s during interviews.Quote:
