This song was her comeback hit and her first hit as a solo artist. She left Ike ten years before and the music industry wouldn't touch her because she was too old and considered a "has been". But Tina didn't give up and didn't stop. She took every gig she could get and even languished in Vegas for a few years before blowing the doors off the music industry. This song became a #1 worldwide hit and started the second half of her career when he was 45. And the second half of her career (as a solo artist) FAR eclipsed the first half with Ike. She became HUGE in the 80s and 90s. HBO has a great documentary that came out last year called TINA that tell her whole story and serves as her farewell to her fans, definitely worth watching. She's in her 80s now and not in the greatest of health but she is LIVING LEGEND with so many great songs to explore from the early 60s to 00's. Wave that TINA flag, y'all...she is a bonafide survivor, thriver and ICON.
In the 80's if you were in your 40's you were considered AINCIENT lol. The Travelling Wilbury's were like pensioners and if you look at their ages at the time they were only in their 40's!
100% on the money. And remember her hair is always a,wig because of an accident at a hairdresser when she was still on tour with One. I went to see her live when she went on the What's Love tour in 1993. There were these twenty year old guys behind us screaming "Tina!! Let us be your love slaves!"
I met her once at a grocery store. We were just shopping and I said hello. She said hi and if I remember correctly we were both in the spice isle so, we ended up talking about what we were going to make for dinner. We had a couple of good laughs on using such spices on the wrong foods etc. She is one of the nicest human beings you’ll ever meet and I mean this even without her celebrity status. She just makes the world a better place.
This is the iconic rebirth of Tina Turner who was already iconic. She was free from Ike Turner and she owned her name, her music. She shot ALL of her naysayers down who said that she was done and that they didn't want to do anything new with her. On top of that she was a consummate performer that slayed people more than half her age on stage. I love Tina Turner. I was so happy to see her as a black woman on MTV with countless hits for me as a black girl absolutely needing that representation.
Tina Turner launched one of the greatest comebacks in music history. This started in 1983 when she teamed up with 'Heaven 17' to sing 'Let's Stay Together' (Al Green Song). She then basically ruled the 80s and 90s.
Around the time her "Private Dancer" album came out, she also did the duet "It's Only Love" with Bryan Adams, which was included on his "Reckless" album.
Tina Turner was her own woman. These comeback songs were absolute smash hits in the mid 80’s. This woman was on top of the world and was the face of Rock and Roll (See Rolling Stone) not only for her music but for her being and her style. On a personal note, my mother was abused by my step father when I was a child including broken hip, nose etc…later, as a young man, I took her to the Uptown Theater to see the legendary Angela Basset performance in the ‘93 film about Tina and for us this was so cathartic the words are unsayable really. Tina Turner is not only a survivor but so vivacious in her music, in her take on life, taking the world by the horns- and so wonderful for you two to get to know her work better. Legend.
Stevie Wonder on harmonica. This was her big comeback -- the record industry had pretty much written her off at this point. She's the second woman to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice -- Stevie Nicks was the first.
And she looked hardly any different in her final concerts at the age of 70 - and made her 20-something backup dancer look shabby in comparison. Looks like her concert exercise has kept he in great shape - never mind having the luck of great genes! Favorite story about her - a friend talked he into going with her to a pilates class. 2 hours later, the instructor was wiped out, and Tine had hardly broken a sweat!
I came to this video the day after Tina's passing was announced. She had a long and stunning career, and worked her butt off for it. The thing that sticks in my mind is the reputation she had for treating her band and crew like family. That's a trademark of the best lead performers. She may be gone, but she left a legacy few can match.
Did you see her gorgeous legs? Along with her impressive vocals, lively dance moves, and iconic hair, Tina Turner's legs have become one of her signature features. Often flaunting them in sparkly mini dresses on stage, the star's pins were insured for $3.2 million and she even dedicated a song to them in 1994.
Lol, one of my favorite commercials for a radio channel says, "Bob's got the legs of Tina Turner and the arms of Arnold Schwarzenegger and a lifetime ban from the wax museum" lol, but her legs are legendary!!
This comes from the Private Dancer album, which in my opinion is one of the best albums by a female period..regardless of the genre. This was her comeback album, there is not a bad song on this album. Better Be Good To Me, her remake of Al Green's Let's Stay together, her remake of David Bowie's 1884, and the title track (written by Dire Straits Mark Knopfler) are awesome.
So nice to see how much y'all enjoyed this one as well. Tina's well of hits goes pretty deep. "Private Dancer," "We Don't Need Another Hero," "I Don't Wanna Fight," "Simply the Best," etc etc. I'll enjoy whichever you pick lol.
Guys you need to watch the movie “What’s love got to do with it” Angela Bassett plays Tina Turner. It’s the story of her life with Ike. IT IS A MUST SEE!!! I LOVE Tina but I gained so much more respect for her when I saw what she went through and who she became.
Absolutely a must see! Tina has faced so many obstacles in her life and overcame it all! I loved that movie, I cried, I got angry, heartbroken, and just have so much respect for her strength through it all!!! What a woman!
Tina's passing this week has brought me back to listen to her songs. She was such an iconic part of my teenage years. Her comeback album came out my senior year of highschool. Such a beautiful woman. One of the 80's superstars.
Great pick for Fee-male Friday!! Tina is a rock goddess of the highest stature! This song was also the title of the 1993 bio-pic about Tina Turner, starring Angela Bassett in a phenomenal portrayal and Laurence Fishburne as the brilliant but abusively brutal Ike Turner. A must watch. 🔥🤙
There was a show called Diva's...her entrance to and performance of "Simply the Best" is a smokeshow.... Early Tina "Nut bush City Limits".... her hometown....greasy rock n roll.
Tina Turner is the "Queen of Rock 'n' Roll". She has spanned over 6 decades of music. She started out with her husband Ike & had some great hits such as "It's Gonna Work Out Fine", "River Deep-Mountain High", "Proud Mary" & "Nutbush City Limits". But she had even bigger hits when she went solo such as "What's Love Got To Do With It", "Better Be Good To Me", "Private Dancer", "We Don't Need Another Hero (from Thunderdome)", "Typical Male", "The Best", "I Don't Wanna Fight", "GoldenEye" (James Bond movie) etc. Turner also released a duet with Bryan Adams "It's Only Love".
Simply the Best is one of my favorites. It has a lot of saxophone and they have to watch it live! They need to see those million dollar legs. This woman is amazing and in the Rock and roll Hall of Fame twice.
NUTBUSH CITY IS A MUST!!! Actually any song by Tina is great, she has quite the voice and legs as the men would tell you!! LOVE THE MERCH!! P.S. WAtch the movie about her life !
I agree to that they MUST watch the movie I knew of her before the movie but once I saw it I then felt happy for her for doing what she loves to do and just continued even after what she had to go through
I believe the movie about Tina Turner is called What's love got to do with it. The final scene in the movie showed what a mentally emotionally strong woman Ms . Turner is !
I remember seeing her in concert front row my freshman year in college wayyyyyy back in 1985, and I was blown. away. Ran out and bought the Private Dancer album and listened to it over and over again. Please please give a listen to her remake of "Let's Stay Together". One of my all time favorite songs! Thank you for listening to a legend.
She Is the ultimate Queen of Rock 'N' Roll! She could sing a grocery list and make a hit of it! I vote that you should react to "It's Only Love (a duet with Bryan Adams)" but the truth is you could spend the next 8 or 9 months just reacting to all her songs
Figures.... Tina started in 1960 with Ike Turner, and Janis became REALLY famous by the late 1960's, when Tina and Ike were releasing big hits.... messes with your concept of time hahaha
Amber is feeling it!! Love the new shirts! You two are adorable!! TINA IS A NATIONAL TREASURE. 80S hair for sure. Leather mini skirts and spike heels. That's what we all wore!! Music and fashion so connected and women were women..not wearing running suits and sneakers!! Miss the 80s...
Still gives me chills. Her amazing comeback after incredibly difficult times. One of my all-time SHEROES. I saw this concert in a small club just a few feet from the stage - just INCREDIBLE. The album was a HUGE HIT. Love her with all my ❤️
The video for this is so iconic. I'm glad you're watching the original video. This led to a whole new generation enjoying Tina Turner's music. Her voice still gives me goosebumps!
I was fortunate enough to see her in concert 4 times. She was in her late 60's the last time I saw her. They were some of the best concerts I've seen. You need to watch the live concert version of Nutbush City Limits!
I heard this, for the first time, when Tina Turner was the warm up act for Lionel Ritchie in Birmingham, Alabama. She came out to sing with him (they sang "Hot Legs") and he asked her about her "new" album. It was due out in a couple of weeks, she sang this song and said "I hope you'll enjoy it". I, as everyone else did, loved it. What a great tune/song.
This was the song that, in 1984, put her back on the musical map at the ripe old age of 45. She proceeded to own the world for the next twelve years. You should check out her cover of Al Green's "Let's Stay Together", "(Simply) The Best", "Typical Male", and my personal fave, "We Don't Need Another Hero" (from the movie Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome, a film where she actually starred as the villainess! Add that to your movie list!) And you like the hair? Into her SEVENTIES, she had the best legs in the business!
For years Tina was spokesperson for L’Eggs energy pantyhose if I understand it lasted into her 60’s despite all the younger people coming up. She is the best.
YES!!! So glad you got to this one. This song launched her comeback in the business, after she broke away from the abusive Ike Turner. By the way this entire album was legendary!
I was so proud of her! She is absolutely fantastic! I grew up watching her with Ike... She never hit her potential until she went solo.... And man did she show him!!! She is just one hell of a singer and entertainer... And a wonderful person.
Yey, Tina's comeback in the 80s - and what a comeback! She got bigger that ever, now without her violent husband. My favorite from that era is Simply The Best! Please react to a live version.
According to the movie, What's Love Got to do With it, Tina went to get her hair done before a performance and it did not turn out as expected. She was afraid Ike would be mad. So she did something to it to jazz it up somehow. Ike was very pleased and thought she was a genius and thought it would be great for their image.
Great reaction to the one and only Ms. Turner. If you haven't done so yet, I'd love it if you went waaay back to the great Peggy Lee, with "Fever". (no, I'm not quite that old, but I love music from all eras and Peggy Lee can sell it with a look and a note. Thanks, cee
This was after she left Ike and got a divorce... This is her comeback album and she kicked A**! You should watch her autobiographical movie starring Angela Basset titled "Whats Love Got to do With It"... You will have so much respect and love for her
You should do segment called "Tina Tuesday" - there are so many great songs by her that you would absolutely love. Nutbush City Limits, Proud Mary, We Don't Need Another Hero, Steamy Windows, The Best, Better Be Good To Me, I Can't Stand the Rain, Goldeneye, and River Deep Mountain High. And all of her live performances at Wimbley Stadium are off the hook!
To answer your question Amber, Tina's splitting up from Ike, due to his treatment of her and her moving forward, was a big part of what this song was about
Love Tina Turner…my step dad was obsessed with her 😻😻 and my mom still listens to her at 72 years 💚…Private Dancer is another good one from her… and pretty please do yourselves a favor and watch Fleetwood Mac do Rhiannon on The Midnight Special, 1976…They’re all incredible but Stevie especially shines 🤘🏼💕✨
Thanks for the memories ! It was the running joke, when this came out , in 84 and I was in high school, that Tina was going to be my wife someday ! Not withstanding she was 30 years older than me, and I was a scrawny nerdy white boy lol. But dayam she has a sexy class to her !! Those legs are legendary !!!
I don't know that there's a better comeback story. Private Dancer is a great album. Listen to how she has a million little fills and ad libs in her phrasing. Amazing! Love Miss Tina!
It's unfortunate that you guys didn't have this channel when she was active. Seeing her live would have blown you away. I saw her farewell tour twice and all I could say is this woman had some serious energy on stage. Never a disappointment.
LEGEND! The second coming of Tina Turner in the 80's where she was packing arenas right along side U2, the Rolling Stones, David Bowie, and Prince. Forever one of my favorites!
Great choice with Tina. Please you must react to Cyndi Lauper "I'm Gonna be Strong" I've been asking since you reacted to USA for Africa absolutely ages ago. It will blow you away, trust me. Much love from England 🏴
TINA!!! Wow - after she got Ike’s boot off her neck she soared! Powerful voice, great songs, dancer with legs that went on forever and she brought us great joy.
The beautiful part is watching you guys react to this, close to 40 years after I caught it for the first time on late-night TV… and damned if Tina doesn’t rattle my cage EVERY bit as hard now as then. What’s even more amazing is that she’s often said she never cared much for the song itself, and yet she still gave it everything she had. A vocal performance for the ages. Oh yeah, and them LEGS.😍🎶😊
This is one of those songs that really makes me wish I was stuck in the 80's. I'm feeling a bit nostalgic right now. Tina had several great songs in the 80's. My favorite is "We Don't Need Another Hero (Thunderdome)." You also have to listen to her rock out with Bryan Adams on "It's Only Love."
One of my biggest sheroes. Tina endured so much abuse and pain She reinvented herself in her 40's when the industry turned their nose at her. She persevered ,rose above it to become a much respected, strong icon that so many look up to. Deep dive she has so many amazing hits You Better Be Good To Me should be next. Long live the Queen 👑🙌
I also LOVE the song “I Don’t Wanna Fight” (and the video) from the same 1993 album “What’s Love Got to Do With It” - which also served as the soundtrack for the autobiographical movie about her life of the same name that was released the same year. Would love to see you review that song too, if you haven’t already. RIP TINA TURNER❤️🩹
Tina’s comeback in the ‘80s was a beautiful thing. She had such a commanding presence and that voice! I saw her in concert during this period (Cindy Lauper opened for her - she was great, too) and she was fabulous.
This was a hit but her cover of AL GREEN's "LET's STAY TOGETHER" in Europe was what kickstarted her comeback! It was a hit in clubs and college radio, leading to the recording of this album!
Thank you guys so much for doing a reaction to this incredible song. This was probably her biggest song of her solo career. It was released in 1984 and she had finally broke free from Ike and all his shenanigans. Also check out "It's Only Love" her duet with Bryan Adams. Phenomenal. Tina was always very special to me. I lost both of my parents back in 2018 (10 days apart from each other) and Tina Turner was my dad's all time favorite. He said she was the most gorgeous woman he had ever seen. I miss em both every day. Thanks again, me fellow Okies. Love you guys!
The grit, the swagger, nobody else could pull it off. Crazy to think that she went thru a period of decline before this triumphant return. Believe it or not, Tina was middle aged and pulling off style like that. A complete icon.
Jay you probably have heard snippets of "Simply the Best". You should react to that. Its a great sports, motivational hype song. Maybe after a slow one. Private Dancer to show her diversity as an artist. You guys will love all of it. 💕
I like "We Don't Need Another Hero" Other powerhouse females for Female Friday: Any live performance by Sade or Betty Wright Also Taylor Dayne, Carole King, and Swing Out Sister
Yay, Tina Turner's "comeback" in the 80s. She rocked everybody's world. Music, hair, legs for days, power! Just love all of her. A true legend.
The Lady. The Legend. Tina Turner.
You all know good music when you hear it….Tina Turner is awesome! Her legs are insured! lol!
Totally agree! Love Tina
i remember even leggs panty hose did 4 commercials with her, and the duets she did with Byron Adams, a hell of a comeback indeed.
What a great voice and a great set of gams to go along.
Best whiskey voice with the best legs in all of rockdom.
This song was her comeback hit and her first hit as a solo artist. She left Ike ten years before and the music industry wouldn't touch her because she was too old and considered a "has been". But Tina didn't give up and didn't stop. She took every gig she could get and even languished in Vegas for a few years before blowing the doors off the music industry. This song became a #1 worldwide hit and started the second half of her career when he was 45. And the second half of her career (as a solo artist) FAR eclipsed the first half with Ike. She became HUGE in the 80s and 90s. HBO has a great documentary that came out last year called TINA that tell her whole story and serves as her farewell to her fans, definitely worth watching. She's in her 80s now and not in the greatest of health but she is LIVING LEGEND with so many great songs to explore from the early 60s to 00's. Wave that TINA flag, y'all...she is a bonafide survivor, thriver and ICON.
Spot on!!!
That doc was fantastic. And now she's been inducted into the Rock Hall of Fame twice!
In the 80's if you were in your 40's you were considered AINCIENT lol. The Travelling Wilbury's were like pensioners and if you look at their ages at the time they were only in their 40's!
100% on the money. And remember her hair is always a,wig because of an accident at a hairdresser when she was still on tour with One. I went to see her live when she went on the What's Love tour in 1993. There were these twenty year old guys behind us screaming "Tina!! Let us be your love slaves!"
No it wasn't..."Let's stay together" was...my fav
Tina was AWESOME!
John Denver once introduced her at an awards show as “The woman God made to teach other women how to dance in high heels”
As soon as they started the video, I remembered that too.
Big hair was indeed an 80s thing.
She's the greatest female rock singer of all time. Her voice and the way she moves.
🎤 ❤️ RIP Tina Turner
I met her once at a grocery store. We were just shopping and I said hello. She said hi and if I remember correctly we were both in the spice isle so, we ended up talking about what we were going to make for dinner. We had a couple of good laughs on using such spices on the wrong foods etc. She is one of the nicest human beings you’ll ever meet and I mean this even without her celebrity status. She just makes the world a better place.
Such a sweet memory, thank you 😍
in Zurich?
@@watergreg5836 in L.A. a few decades ago
Wow! Great story. Cherish that memory.
I would have died right there in front of the spice rack.
This is the iconic rebirth of Tina Turner who was already iconic. She was free from Ike Turner and she owned her name, her music. She shot ALL of her naysayers down who said that she was done and that they didn't want to do anything new with her. On top of that she was a consummate performer that slayed people more than half her age on stage. I love Tina Turner. I was so happy to see her as a black woman on MTV with countless hits for me as a black girl absolutely needing that representation.
The Queen of Rock and Roll
Tina Turner launched one of the greatest comebacks in music history. This started in 1983 when she teamed up with 'Heaven 17' to sing 'Let's Stay Together' (Al Green Song). She then basically ruled the 80s and 90s.

Stevie Wonder on harmonica. This was her big comeback -- the record industry had pretty much written her off at this point. She's the second woman to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice -- Stevie Nicks was the first.
That's Billy Livsey, synthesizing the harmonica part on a Yamaha DX7. Stevie Wonder does not appear on the track.
Great catch on Stevie!!
That's a keyboard, not a harmonica.
Wow apart from Tina's powerhouse voice .I thought that harmonica playing was second to none ! Makes sense now .
Imo Stevie Didn't Deserve That
If anything she was an under rated female artist. “Better be good to me” and “private dancer” are also super great songs…you’ll love em.
1984.... She was 45.. This woman has aged beautifully.
And she looked hardly any different in her final concerts at the age of 70 - and made her 20-something backup dancer look shabby in comparison. Looks like her concert exercise has kept he in great shape - never mind having the luck of great genes!
Favorite story about her - a friend talked he into going with her to a pilates class. 2 hours later, the instructor was wiped out, and Tine had hardly broken a sweat!

Often flaunting them in sparkly mini dresses on stage, the star's pins were insured for $3.2 million and she even dedicated a song to them in 1994.
Lol, one of my favorite commercials for a radio channel says, "Bob's got the legs of Tina Turner and the arms of Arnold Schwarzenegger and a lifetime ban from the wax museum" lol, but her legs are legendary!!
Tina was the queen of rock'n soul. I miss that girl.
This comes from the Private Dancer album, which in my opinion is one of the best albums by a female period..regardless of the genre. This was her comeback album, there is not a bad song on this album. Better Be Good To Me, her remake of Al Green's Let's Stay together, her remake of David Bowie's 1884, and the title track (written by Dire Straits Mark Knopfler)
are awesome.
*one of the best albums period
So nice to see how much y'all enjoyed this one as well. Tina's well of hits goes pretty deep. "Private Dancer," "We Don't Need Another Hero," "I Don't Wanna Fight," "Simply the Best," etc etc. I'll enjoy whichever you pick lol.
Guys you need to watch the movie “What’s love got to do with it” Angela Bassett plays Tina Turner. It’s the story of her life with Ike. IT IS A MUST SEE!!! I LOVE Tina but I gained so much more respect for her when I saw what she went through and who she became.
Absolutely a must see! Tina has faced so many obstacles in her life and overcame it all! I loved that movie, I cried, I got angry, heartbroken, and just have so much respect for her strength through it all!!! What a woman!
Love the movie
I can also recommend the movie with the same title.But make sure no kids - some scenes are horrific😢
Tina is awesome
Tina is SIMPLY THE BEST. Great song and an amazing artist. Check out WE DON'T NEED ANOTHER HERO from the Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome
We don't need another Hero is soooo powerful!
I think among her esteemed catalog, it may be underrated.
Who runs Bartertown?
Tina's passing this week has brought me back to listen to her songs. She was such an iconic part of my teenage years. Her comeback album came out my senior year of highschool. Such a beautiful woman. One of the 80's superstars.
Great pick for Fee-male Friday!! Tina is a rock goddess of the highest stature! This song was also the title of the 1993 bio-pic about Tina Turner, starring Angela Bassett in a phenomenal portrayal and Laurence Fishburne as the brilliant but abusively brutal Ike Turner. A must watch. 🔥🤙
I absolutely agree!
Serious must watch!!! ❤️
There was a show called Diva's...her entrance to and performance of "Simply the Best" is a smokeshow....
Early Tina "Nut bush City Limits".... her hometown....greasy rock n roll.
Tina Turner is the "Queen of Rock 'n' Roll". She has spanned over 6 decades of music. She started out with her husband Ike & had some great hits such as "It's Gonna Work Out Fine", "River Deep-Mountain High", "Proud Mary" & "Nutbush City Limits". But she had even bigger hits when she went solo such as "What's Love Got To Do With It", "Better Be Good To Me", "Private Dancer", "We Don't Need Another Hero (from Thunderdome)", "Typical Male", "The Best", "I Don't Wanna Fight", "GoldenEye" (James Bond movie) etc. Turner also released a duet with Bryan Adams "It's Only Love".
They've got to do the Thunderdome song with the video!~
"Nutbush City Limits" is one of my all-tme favorites of hers---as well as "Better Be Good to Me"!!
Don't forget about "do what you do" epic tune by Her Majesty Queen Tina, of Rock n Roll. 😍
Simply the Best is one of my favorites. It has a lot of saxophone and they have to watch it live! They need to see those million dollar legs. This woman is amazing and in the Rock and roll Hall of Fame twice.
Two of my favorites are "Let's Stay Together" & "Private Dancer".
Beautiful song ❤RIP Tina Turner thank you for the great music 👍🎸🍺
NUTBUSH CITY IS A MUST!!! Actually any song by Tina is great, she has quite the voice and legs as the men would tell you!! LOVE THE MERCH!! P.S. WAtch the movie about her life !
I agree to that they MUST watch the movie I knew of her before the movie but once I saw it I then felt happy for her for doing what she loves to do and just continued even after what she had to go through
I believe the movie about Tina Turner is called What's love got to do with it.
The final scene in the movie showed what a mentally emotionally strong woman Ms . Turner is !
I remember seeing her in concert front row my freshman year in college wayyyyyy back in 1985, and I was blown. away. Ran out and bought the Private Dancer album and listened to it over and over again. Please please give a listen to her remake of "Let's Stay Together". One of my all time favorite songs! Thank you for listening to a legend.
Amazing singer. Try “Private Dancer” or “ Better Be Good To Me”. 💕 Adore the shirts.
Guys, that's a WIG, she confirmed wearing wigs since the 70s because she damaged her own hair. This song is from 1984.
You guys have to react to "Proud Mary" live from Wembley. Tina still has the moves!!!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Agree!!
Absolutely!
Definitely!. My favourite performance.
Yes!!!
TINA!!! She puts on a fantastic concert!
I love music! Her voice❤️
She Is the ultimate Queen of Rock 'N' Roll! She could sing a grocery list and make a hit of it! I vote that you should react to "It's Only Love (a duet with Bryan Adams)" but the truth is you could spend the next 8 or 9 months just reacting to all her songs
For more of that grit, Nutbush City Limit has it in spades!
Fun fact: Janis Joplin was one of the first admirers of Tina back in the 60s when she was still quite unknown and underrated
Yup the guy asked Janis Joplin who was her idol
Janis Joplin told Him
Tina,Tina Turner!!!
Figures.... Tina started in 1960 with Ike Turner, and Janis became REALLY famous by the late 1960's, when Tina and Ike were releasing big hits.... messes with your concept of time hahaha
Amber is feeling it!! Love the new shirts! You two are adorable!! TINA IS A NATIONAL TREASURE. 80S hair for sure. Leather mini skirts and spike heels. That's what we all wore!! Music and fashion so connected and women were women..not wearing running suits and sneakers!! Miss the 80s...
I miss the 80’s too. I still have my trench coat.
Still gives me chills. Her amazing comeback after incredibly difficult times. One of my all-time SHEROES. I saw this concert in a small club just a few feet from the stage - just INCREDIBLE. The album was a HUGE HIT. Love her with all my ❤️
“Nutbush City Limits” and “River Deep Mountain High” are two of my favorites, please add them to your list 🙏🏼.
The video for this is so iconic. I'm glad you're watching the original video. This led to a whole new generation enjoying Tina Turner's music. Her voice still gives me goosebumps!
The best concert I ever went to was Tina Turner's Private Dancer Tour. She was so amazing to watch and listen too!!
I saw that tour also and it was unbelieveable!
Tina’s legs and signature hair styles are Iconic. Such a career and great music over many decades. Unmistakable voice. Love her!!
I was fortunate enough to see her in concert 4 times. She was in her late 60's the last time I saw her. They were some of the best concerts I've seen. You need to watch the live concert version of Nutbush City Limits!
R.I.P Queen of Rock!
You need to do Tina’s version of “Simply the Best”. She is….
I heard this, for the first time, when Tina Turner was the warm up act for Lionel Ritchie in Birmingham, Alabama. She came out to sing with him (they sang "Hot Legs") and he asked her about her "new" album. It was due out in a couple of weeks, she sang this song and said "I hope you'll enjoy it". I, as everyone else did, loved it. What a great tune/song.
Absolute Legend...She's sadly retired from performing due to health reasons but absolute one the best singer's in history & Iconic for her style
"A Sweet Old Fashioned Notion".
This was my introduction to Tina when I was 14-- my mom was like "oh no, honey-- she's BEEN a HUUUGE star for YEARS!"
Same!!
You need to watch a live performance, she has incredible energy
If you havent already, watch her biopic What’s Love Got To Do With It. Angela Bassett and Lawrence Fishburne are magic yet again.
I was so happy when it was Angela who inducted Tina into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. What a perfect choice.
It would be really fun if they reacted to musical biopics movies.
@@theshadowfax239 Yessss! Like The Jackson: An American Dream; The Temptations; The Five Heartbeats, etc...
A Must Hear Classic,, Rose Royve "I'm Going Down"
Yay, Tina!!!!! You must listen to "The Best" and her remake of "Let's Stay Together"
Tina Turner Holy crap If you were not subdued by the sheer voice and presence. She probably has the best legs in human history.
You can never go wrong with Tina - one of the best rock performers ever! Her concerts were unbelievable.
And those legs! :)
Yeah legs to die for
Tina from Nutbush Tennessee. Another great TN artist.
This was the song that, in 1984, put her back on the musical map at the ripe old age of 45. She proceeded to own the world for the next twelve years. You should check out her cover of Al Green's "Let's Stay Together", "(Simply) The Best", "Typical Male", and my personal fave, "We Don't Need Another Hero" (from the movie Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome, a film where she actually starred as the villainess! Add that to your movie list!) And you like the hair? Into her SEVENTIES, she had the best legs in the business!
For years Tina was spokesperson for L’Eggs energy pantyhose if I understand it lasted into her 60’s despite all the younger people coming up. She is the best.
That little "growl" is called vocal fry. Check out Beth Roars!!
YES!!! So glad you got to this one. This song launched her comeback in the business, after she broke away from the abusive Ike Turner. By the way this entire album was legendary!
I was so proud of her! She is absolutely fantastic! I grew up watching her with Ike... She never hit her potential until she went solo.... And man did she show him!!! She is just one hell of a singer and entertainer... And a wonderful person.
Yey, Tina's comeback in the 80s - and what a comeback! She got bigger that ever, now without her violent husband. My favorite from that era is Simply The Best! Please react to a live version.
Such an inspiration! I love "I Don't Want To Fight ".
She was way more talented than Ike and he couldn't handle it.
love simply the best!
7:31 The actress that Tina taps on the shoulder (Vanessa Bell Callaway) starred in Tina Turner's 1993 biopic playing her best friend.
TINA!! nuff said. . . SIMPLY THE BEST should be the next one you listen to. PLEASE n THANK YOU!! You guys really do make me smile❣️😁😁
According to the movie, What's Love Got to do With it, Tina went to get her hair done before a performance and it did not turn out as expected. She was afraid Ike would be mad. So she did something to it to jazz it up somehow. Ike was very pleased and thought she was a genius and thought it would be great for their image.
You definitely should watch this movie(same title as the song) about her life. It’s really, really good 😊
We Don't Need Another Hero from Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome
Great reaction to the one and only Ms. Turner. If you haven't done so yet, I'd love it if you went waaay back to the great Peggy Lee, with "Fever". (no, I'm not quite that old, but I love music from all eras and Peggy Lee can sell it with a look and a note. Thanks, cee
This was after she left Ike and got a divorce... This is her comeback album and she kicked A**! You should watch her autobiographical movie starring Angela Basset titled "Whats Love Got to do With It"... You will have so much respect and love for her
female Friday needs Sades' "the Sweetest Taboo" for Amber. The live from San Diego from 2015 is amazing
In the 70s and 80s big hair was popular .PattieLabelle went through the big hair phase in the 80s to
You should do segment called "Tina Tuesday" - there are so many great songs by her that you would absolutely love. Nutbush City Limits, Proud Mary, We Don't Need Another Hero, Steamy Windows, The Best, Better Be Good To Me, I Can't Stand the Rain, Goldeneye, and River Deep Mountain High. And all of her live performances at Wimbley Stadium are off the hook!
Yes the Wembley concert!!!
Private Dancer too!
To answer your question Amber, Tina's splitting up from Ike, due to his treatment of her and her moving forward, was a big part of what this song was about
Love Tina Turner…my step dad was obsessed with her 😻😻 and my mom still listens to her at 72 years 💚…Private Dancer is another good one from her… and pretty please do yourselves a favor and watch Fleetwood Mac do Rhiannon on The Midnight Special, 1976…They’re all incredible but Stevie especially shines 🤘🏼💕✨
Thanks for the memories ! It was the running joke, when this came out , in 84 and I was in high school, that Tina was going to be my wife someday ! Not withstanding she was 30 years older than me, and I was a scrawny nerdy white boy lol. But dayam she has a sexy class to her !! Those legs are legendary !!!
Papa was a Rolling Stone by The Temptations; it's a song that is so deep, and the voices are incredible.
Yes please react to this.
ICONIC! Tina- her most iconic video, song. ICONIC! Great. Huge hit song. Her comeback song that launched her tremendous career in the 80s and beyond.
Tina is a pure entertainer! Yes, The Charismatic Voice is Elizabeth Zharoff! She is Brilliant!
I don't know that there's a better comeback story. Private Dancer is a great album. Listen to how she has a million little fills and ad libs in her phrasing. Amazing! Love Miss Tina!
I know it's just my opinion but,
To me Tina is the greatest female artist of all time.
Period......
It's unfortunate that you guys didn't have this channel when she was active. Seeing her live would have blown you away. I saw her farewell tour twice and all I could say is this woman had some serious energy on stage. Never a disappointment.
LEGEND! The second coming of Tina Turner in the 80's where she was packing arenas right along side U2, the Rolling Stones, David Bowie, and Prince. Forever one of my favorites!
RIP Tina Turner. May you sing with the angels. ❤❤
The legend lives on. ❤
Great choice with Tina. Please you must react to Cyndi Lauper "I'm Gonna be Strong" I've been asking since you reacted to USA for Africa absolutely ages ago. It will blow you away, trust me. Much love from England 🏴
TINA!!! Wow - after she got Ike’s boot off her neck she soared! Powerful voice, great songs, dancer with legs that went on forever and she brought us great joy.
I love her singing with Santana on Game of Love. Try her Private Dancer Album, her duet with Brian Adams, as well!
The beautiful part is watching you guys react to this, close to 40 years after I caught it for the first time on late-night TV… and damned if Tina doesn’t rattle my cage EVERY bit as hard now as then. What’s even more amazing is that she’s often said she never cared much for the song itself, and yet she still gave it everything she had. A vocal performance for the ages. Oh yeah, and them LEGS.😍🎶😊
I know you're right, but OMG, how can this song be almost 40 years old??
This is one of those songs that really makes me wish I was stuck in the 80's. I'm feeling a bit nostalgic right now. Tina had several great songs in the 80's. My favorite is "We Don't Need Another Hero (Thunderdome)." You also have to listen to her rock out with Bryan Adams on "It's Only Love."
One of my biggest sheroes. Tina endured so much abuse and pain She reinvented herself in her 40's when the industry turned their nose at her. She persevered ,rose above it to become a much respected, strong icon that so many look up to. Deep dive she has so many amazing hits You Better Be Good To Me should be next. Long live the Queen 👑🙌
She also did a duet with Bryan Adams - It's Only Love.
PLEASE react to Tina Turner "Private Dancer" original video ❤️❤️❤️
It was hard not to fall in love with her back in the 80’s. She was all that and then some. Her look (and hair) was all her own.
I also LOVE the song “I Don’t Wanna Fight” (and the video) from the same 1993 album “What’s Love Got to Do With It” - which also served as the soundtrack for the autobiographical movie about her life of the same name that was released the same year. Would love to see you review that song too, if you haven’t already. RIP TINA TURNER❤️🩹
Tina’s comeback in the ‘80s was a beautiful thing. She had such a commanding presence and that voice! I saw her in concert during this period (Cindy Lauper opened for her - she was great, too) and she was fabulous.
I saw that tour. It was AMAZING
This was a hit but her cover of AL GREEN's "LET's STAY TOGETHER" in Europe was what kickstarted her comeback! It was a hit in clubs and college radio, leading to the recording of this album!
Thank you guys so much for doing a reaction to this incredible song. This was probably her biggest song of her solo career. It was released in 1984 and she had finally broke free from Ike and all his shenanigans. Also check out "It's Only Love" her duet with Bryan Adams. Phenomenal. Tina was always very special to me. I lost both of my parents back in 2018 (10 days apart from each other) and Tina Turner was my dad's all time favorite. He said she was the most gorgeous woman he had ever seen. I miss em both every day. Thanks again, me fellow Okies. Love you guys!
This was the song that started her comeback.
The grit, the swagger, nobody else could pull it off. Crazy to think that she went thru a period of decline before this triumphant return. Believe it or not, Tina was middle aged and pulling off style like that. A complete icon.
Jay you probably have heard snippets of "Simply the Best". You should react to that. Its a great sports, motivational hype song. Maybe after a slow one. Private Dancer to show her diversity as an artist. You guys will love all of it. 💕
This One Will Hit You Different,, But In A Good Way,, NU SHOOZ "I CAN'T WAIT" (Official Music Video)
Tina, such a great entertainer. Check out "It's only love" Live with Bryan Adams
