    The song was written by David Foster, and the instrumental version of it which is on his debut solo album, is named "Chaka". Her soaring vocals here are so great! All the way from her days in the band Rufus, she's been incredible. Keyboards and piano played by Foster; who produced the track; and guitar solo was played by the great session guitar player Michael Landau.

      I love "Time After Time", but imo this song is WAY better than Lauper's hit. Just the production alone beats out "Time", and then you add the range and vocal versatility of Khan, and "Through The Fire" will win out every time.

  • @charles-iii6759
    @charles-iii6759 8 месяцев назад +3

    Whomever the composer is, it takes a singer, such as Chaka Khan, to bring the song to be heard and rewarded. And I'm saying this because in some of the comments, much credit (in some comments all the credit) is given to the composer and hardly any to Chaka. He could have given the song to somebody else, but there is a damn good reason why Chaka Khan was given the song.
