From: The Backlot

 #26

“Solitaire”

Laura Branigan

 Laura had three top ten songs (although her original version of “How Am I Supposed To Live Without You” came close, peaking at #12), and the first on this list is “Solitaire,” which was her follow-up to “Gloria,” and proved that she was no one-hit wonder. It peaked at #7 in May 1983. “Solitaire” is also notable for introducing prolific songwriter Diane Warren, who re-wrote the original French lyrics.
