    Superstar Tina Turner performs a cover of a Barbra Streisand song " Watch Closely Now " and then she is changing and sings a medley with Cher.
    It is from the Sonny & Cher Show aired 11 March 1977.
    This is Tina's 3rd appearance on the show but the 1st after the divorce from Ike.
    Watch closely now
    You'll observe a curious exchange of energy
    Are you a figment of my imagination
    Or am I one of yours?
    Watch closely now
    Are you watching me now?
    Your eyes are like fingers
    They're touching my body
    And arousing my soul
    Riding the passion arising inside me
    How high can I go?
    You're comin' with me girl, I'm gonna show you how
    When it's scarey, don't look down
    Watch closely now
    Are you watching me now?
    I see the hunger arise in your eyes
    And it's urging me on
    Higher and harder and faster and farther
    Than I've ever gone
    You're coming closer lady; don'tcha leave me now
    We're gonna make it, don't look down
    Maybe I'm takin' me too many chances
    With no net at all
    Maybe I'll teach you at least that you've
    got to be free when you fall
    Watch closely now
    Are you watching me now?
    I'm the master magician
    Who's setting you free
    From the lies you've been told
    When you're breaking your back
    Bring your last straw to me
    I turn straw into gold
    I'm gonna need you later, when you're not around
    But I can take it, don't look down
    Watch closely now...
    Are you watching me now?

She had a very beautiful speaking voice and it‘s a pleasure to listen to her! It was Cher who came to visit her at home a few times before she passed - at the end she could even wisper! 😢

    I'll say this; the first 2 minutes and 52 seconds of "Watch Closely Now" aren;t some of my favorite Tina vocals, but when she flips that hair back at 2:53: Barbara who? Just kidding, Barbara Streisand and her version is very lovely indeed. Both Legendary Ladies.

    Tina had just left Ike. Sonny and Cher had divorced, had their own shows and joined again for this one. This song always seemed like Tina's declaration of independence to me; I think she's singing to Ike, particularly the end, "You're gonna want me baby when I'm not around, but I can take it, I won't look down."
