Laura Branigan performing "Self Control" with her band on Solid Gold. One of the most iconic songs of the 80s, we're still living among the creatures of the night. May 12th, 1984

Because current singers are recruited for their looks not talent. And they also use autotune to make them sound good proving you don't need real talent anymore.
I swear this is true, on a cruise (Celebrity Millennium) from Venice to Athens Aug 25 to Sept 3 2004 (destination Athens Olympics) the first full day was a sea day and I was in the ship music library (iPods were still a thing of the future) and for some reason I thought of this record from the mists of time and played it. Astounded to find out days later it was the day she died. Shivers up and down the spine.
She was such a good woman too I know that the song can be a little misleading because she had a lot of self-control she was only married one time that I know of and her husband died before she did and they had adopted some children that she took care of and after he died it was all left up to her and she never remarried after that and she was very faithful to her husband and she's such a wonderful woman and it's just terrible that death came way to soon @@gerardmackay8909
I graduated from high school in 1984. "Self Control" and Laura Branigan were one of the many talented artists I would listen to on the radio. I worked in a grocery store as a bagger that summer, while I waited to enroll in college in the Fall. 84 was a great year.
I lived to dance in the 80's, out several nights a week, every week. I'd spend hours on the dance floor, oblivious to all save the music and my dance. This was not just my favorite dance song from the 80's, it was the embodiment of my soul. Hearing it again summons not just the memories but the emotion of the time.
Et oui et nous étions tous pareille. Nous avions une vie. Chose que les jeunes d'aujourd'hui ne connaitrons jamais. Malheureusement. Notre époque est sans âme et plein de violences inutiles.
I used to listen to her in my bedroom, I was maybe 11,12 yrs old at the time. I used to just stare at her album cover admiring her beauty and talent. On the record player I'd sing along with her, my parents loved her music as well. I just recently found out she passed away. I was shocked and sadened. I'm now listening to her music again, brings back memories, I can't help but tear up a bit thinking about my younger yrs. This music will forever be the best in my books. 💕
Voice of a phenomal singer. Looked like a model. Dressed so elegantly. You don’t need to reveal everything to be sexy and beautiful and seductive and break men’s hearts 💕. Pure class. RIP Laura.
Божественно! Было время,- с приятелем в 1985-м ,в апреле, прогуливались по Свердловску, учились на курсах, у Сереги в руках мафон, марку уже не помню, вроде Томь, и Лаура, полный концерт,- девчонки оглядываются, нам по 20 лет....
Hey there! I came across your comment and I just had to reach out and say hi. Your perspective really caught my attention and I would love to get to know you better. Would you be interested in chatting sometime? Looking forward to hearing back from you! 😊
The voice, the song, the expressions and emotions.. too perfect.. Love and Miss u Laura. U left us way too soon. If ever would time travel then would come to 80’s for u
You can’t beat the 80,s best music,good looking women and all could sing ,not like todays plastic wannabes,Laura was beautiful and sang beautiful rip Laura enjoyed your music
Yes, we all dressed to the nines and wore strong makeup and hair, but we would never have subjected our own unique faces to filler, Botox, all this stuff that makes women look like single-mold plastic dolls. Very sad. Laura was so beautiful and powerful.
I absolutely LOVED Self Control when it came out! 🎶❤️🎶 I don't know if I like Self Control or Gloria better ! They are about the same for me. Such great songs! Love you Laura.....tell my mom hi for me, and Olivia! 🌹 😇 🌹
Self Control was the stand out song from the long hot summer of 1984, the year I left school, I was 16 but seems like yesterday, still as fresh and vibrant today as it was all those years ago.
We love you so much, we miss you every day Laura! Thank you for leaving us this timeless masterpiece. It's, undoubtedly, an expression of the deep feelings of a human being that only brave and talented artists can adequately tell by the music.
After 39 years i have seen this video.Actually i saw it in sometimes in 1984 in a tv show named SOLID GOLD when i was just 4 years at age. Laura has pure tone. I Don't know why crying is coming.possibly due to rememorize of the past time.
This song is my old time fav and still.. it's really very very beautiful, touchy, meaningful song, music, lyrics and performances is really super.. fantastic.. mindblowin.. outstandin.. history.. with beautiful powerful deep rich soulful voice of Laura Branigan is terrific.. all the best 👍🙌❤💪😘💕.. my endless 💘❤♥💙💕😘💘eternally ♥💖❤💓💗💕♥💖❤💓💗💕♥💖❤💓

Laura has magical voice,, I don’t know why singers in the past had better voice than current singers
Because current singers are recruited for their looks not talent. And they also use autotune to make them sound good proving you don't need real talent anymore.
It’s not the singer it’s the song and the backing. And most of the songs are overdone.
This song by Laura was and still is pleasing to the ears and the nervous system!
Because they had more talent.
Parce que c'était les années 80 ❤
Rest in Peace Laura Ann Branigan July 3rd 1952 to August 26th 2004. Your music will never die.

Can’t believe it’s now about to be 20 years since she left us 😢😢

Class of '84. Heh. Me too.
Class of '84 as well. This song always brings me back to those days.
goes by quick, doesn't it? (wiping away a tear)
Great times. Miss them greatly...
I left high school in 1982
Laura had the voice!! Just ,raw, pure talent but first she had grace and humility. What a precious soul.
Well said Lisa

Laura Branigan would've liked seeing her music videos on TH-cam.

Peter, we're so lucky to be 80s kids!

Laura was so beautiful and powerful.
Did anyone else notice the guy introducing Laura was Russell Hitchcock of Air Supply?
Yes, he is. 😉
Yep,right away,since I am also a big fan of Air Supply, I have all their hits on DVD.
Yes Australian lead vocalist Russell Hitchcock.
Yes
Yes of course ...and just like Laura with simple and humility ✌️
RIP Laura. An underrated great talent.
So yong she died,her husband to, unbelievable.
This music was legend,RIP😢
36 ans après, cette chanson est indémodable.
Hola Laura Braniga Martín abisionado aura Martín Cúcuta
It took me about a year and 20 times hearing this to realize how beautiful ❤️ she was
Wow. I never actually even knew what she looked like! Nice. 👍
I was 6 when this came out. Evokes so many memories and feelings of my childhood.
Everyday Laura's precious Music, I really Love this Artist/Musician
I love her voice good old music ❤
Laura, A great talent that is gone but not forgotten. Such a lovely voice with a powerful force. Thanks for doing this👍👍
She died so young!
Love this song!
I absolutely LOVED Self Control when it came out! 🎶❤️🎶 I don't know if I like Self Control or Gloria better ! They are about the same for me. Such great songs! Love you Laura.....tell my mom hi for me, and Olivia! 🌹 😇 🌹
❤ Retro music greetings from coastal Mississippi. Laura was my favourite singer of the 80's.
Self Control was the stand out song from the long hot summer of 1984, the year I left school, I was 16 but seems like yesterday, still as fresh and vibrant today as it was all those years ago.
God bless your soul. You will be always in our Hearts ❤
Nothing will ever change my memories along with great times and music of the 80s. So glad to have lived that era in my 20s.
THE BEST
This song makes me cry even though I was born in 1995. I can not think how emotional can people who lived in 80s would feel listeing to this...
Love her because she showcases her talented voice instead of being half naked like a lot of female stars today.
Damn right!
My No.1 song out of 50 thousand in my library since 1984
We love you so much, we miss you every day Laura!
Thank you for leaving us this timeless masterpiece.
