After the Youtube video for the Spanish version of “Glorious” was posted on this site, Gladys made this comment:

“The song is beautiful, David’s voice is sublime. It is different from the version in English. The lyric has totally changed.”
I was curious and asked Gladys if she would please transcribe the Spanish lyrics for us. When I read the Spanish lyrics and then translated them to English, I understood what Gladys meant. Although the sentiment is the same in both songs, the lyrics are very different. However, the song sounds just as beautiful in both languages.
David’s voice in Spanish has a natural flow. It may be because of his gift of combining the end of one word with the beginning of the next, weaving the lyrics together to create the melody.
What do you think?
