*I actually struggled a bit to find the right words for the teaser because I really didn't want to just plaster Newson across it and then the vaguest memory of this song wafted forward. There are, of course, a couple others called "Gloria" but it was like "soul music, yes!" and then there's the whole elegiac quality to the song, it just worked for me. Gavin and Ginger are kids of the hip-hop generation, Gloria too, but she knew her roots.
