I have "Love Tracks". While, "I will surive" was the major hit, "Anybody wanna party" is also a hit. As a matter of fact, I will surive was the "B" side to Anybody wanna party. Overall, the entire album is a classic.

The thing is, she just sings what producers give to her. Some of her songs arre great, I like I Will Survive, I Am What I Am, Never Can Say Goodbye, Reach Out (I'll Be There)

"Anybody Wanna Party" is the baddest thing she ever did. She should have done more jams like that one. I didn't care for much else that she did.

I agree,"Anybody Wanna Party" is a JAM! Most of her other hits were pure disco,but "Anybody Wanna Party" is much funkier than your average disco song.That's a straight-up R&B jam right there!! It's from her 'Love Tracks' album."I Will Survive" overshadowed the other songs on that album,but "Anybody Wanna Party" is her best song,imo.

hmmm If I'm not mistaken,the first single from this album was a song called "Substitute".The song went nowhere,but DJs flipped the record over and played the B-side "I Will Survive".

"Substitute" is such a weak song.I can't believe they chose that as the first single,considering the album contains such obviously stronger tracks as "I Will Survive" and "Anybody Wanna Party" confuse

I love her version! Clifton Davis really hit that one out of the park, because most of the versions I've heard are great. music
