"I'm Gonna Be Strong" is a song written by the songwriting duo Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil.[1] It was first recorded by Frankie Laine in 1963 and released as a single on Columbia Records.

It was also a single released by the 1980 band Blue Angel, with lead vocals provided by future star Cyndi Lauper. This release was prior to Lauper's solo career; however, Lauper re-recorded the track and released it as a single in 1994. The song was also featured on 1982's Quiet Lies album by Grammy winner Juice Newton. Though Newton never released the song as a single, her remake was later added as a bonus track to her first Greatest Hits collection.
