    "comment": "This song was written by the former Motown producers Freddie Perren and Dino Fekaris. Perren was a co-writer on three #1 Jackson 5 hits: \"I Want You Back,\" \"The Love You Save\" and \"ABC.\" Fekaris' biggest co-write with Motown was \"I Just Want to Celebrate\" by Rare Earth, but he also placed tracks with The Temptations and The Four Tops.\n\nWhen Perren and Fekaris left Motown, they formed their own production duo and scored big with Peaches & Herb, taking \"Reunited\" to #1. When they wrote \"I Will Survive,\" they had nobody to sing it. The pair agreed that the next diva that came their way would get the song. That diva was Gloria Gaynor, whose record company called Perren looking for production work on a song called \"Substitute,\" which was originally recorded by the Righteous Brothers. They took the gig, and Gaynor agreed to record \"I Will Survive\" as the B-side.",
