A versão de “Gloria” de Patti Smith foi lançada no álbum *Horses* em 1975.
Embora mantenha o refrão da música original de Van Morrison, Smith reinventou totalmente as estrofes, inserindo referências irônicas ao contexto sagrado.
A canção abre de forma marcante com a frase “Jesus died for somebody's sins / But not mine”.
O verso de abertura acabou sendo usado como slogan pelo grupo punk britânico Crass.
A interpretação de Smith transforma a melodia de Morrison em um hino da incipiente cena punk rock.
