She was also married to Greg Allman and had a child with him - who is playing guitar on this song. Imagine being her son and seeing your mom dressed in that outfit dancing around all those guys.

    Cher started out in her teens with husband Sonny Bono. They wrote and sang songs throughout 1960’s. In the 1970’s they got their own entertainment show weekly. They did music, comedy. They had a baby. They divorced later in the 1970’s. She met and married Greg Allman (one of the Allman brothers, who had his own bluesy rock singing career. They had a child, Elijah Blue. The marriage didn’t last. But Cher’s voice and style carried her on. She also became an actress. She won an Oscar. Cher is an icon.

Their breakup, however was way overdue. I think she is apologizing for the way she treated him on the show.

    he music video for "If I Could Turn Back Time", directed by American television director Marty Callner, takes place on board the battleship USS Missouri. It depicts Cher and her band performing a concert for the ship's crew. The video was filmed in Los Angeles on Friday night, June 30, 1989, while the ship was stationed at the former Long Beach Naval Shipyard at Pier D. In the video, the band plays on the foredeck, and the ship is rigged with spotlights, light racks and strobes. Cher's son, Elijah Blue Allman, 12 at the time, appears as one of the band's guitarists wearing dark glasses and a Jimi Hendrix T-shirt.

      I love Tracy Chapman, but I think that "Give Me One Reason" is NOT one of her best songs (even though it was a commercial success). It didn't have that depth of meaning and social consciousness that I love in her other songs. It's the reason I never bought the album it was on until I actually listened to it over a decade later and loved every song on it except for that one. Instead of "Give Me One Reason", I would recommend "Talkin' 'bout a Revolution", but she has so many great songs to listen to, many of which are modern classics, that it's easy to find great Tracy Chapman songs to listen to.

    Cher is the only artist to have a top 10 songs in every decade since the 1960's. She is an unbelievable talent/performer. Bob Mackie has designed her costumes for her tours and Vegas since "The Sonny and Cher Show". You guys need to check out that show...she was stunning!

    Cher has always had a very unique session sense. I think for a long time her favorite designer was Bob Mackie. She had some pretty out-there outfits when she was on the Sonny & Cher show.

    Cher has been around for decades!! She and her first husband Sonny had their own TV show in the 70's. She's amazing!! Please watch- Love Hurt's, Love & Understanding, We All Sleep Alone, After All, Just Like Jesse James, I Found Someone, Save Up All Your Tears, Heart Of Stone-
    Those are all great songs!! Really hope you watch them! Love your reactions!! 💕✌🏻🎶

Talented,beautiful,50 year career,successful variety show,Oscar winning actress,style icon who gave no shits what anyone thought,by all accounts an excellent dedicated Mother,advocate for vulnerable people,great wife,supports numerous charities,an icon! She's about 45ish in this video. Her mother is 91 and stunning-Cher is also aging so well. She's got it all! It's really not fair:-)

  • @odinspromise

    Cher, the tall, dark, slender American Native woman. Sonny Bono, the short, goofy, dark haired Sicilian man. Together they made some of the most iconic music of the 70's. At one point, they even had their own TV variety show that continued even after their divorce. They had respect for each other and they were great together. Cher discovered that she could move on without Sonny and over the years became a musical, TV and motion picture legend. She's been through a lot in her life and much of her experience can be witnessed in her music, but still, she never lost herself and for that I give her much respect. Sonny was killed in a skiing accident in Colorado many years ago and his death hit her hard. I can hear some of that regret in this song, even though the song is not about him directly. Cher is an artist of the highest caliber. PEACE!!!!!

      Cher is of Armenian heritage on her father's side, and of English and German, with more distant Irish, Dutch, and French, heritage on her mother's side. The father deserted the family when Cher was young, and her mother later married banker Gilbert LaPiere.

    She was actually nervous about being around them dressed that way but the men were ordered to behave and not touch her. She soon felt extremely safe and totally respected these men.

    • @laurellane1721
      @laurellane1721 Год назад

      I personally think it was inappropriate for her to be dressed like that, not only in front of her son, but in front of all those servicemen. She could have covered up a bit more and still have been sexy.

    Cher was my idol growing up. Watched The Cher Show religiously as a teen for her grand entrance at the start of every episode! “Half Breed”, “Gypsies Tramps and Thieves”, “Bang Bang”, “Take Me Home” so may favorites but, of course the one that made her famous “I Got You, Babe” with husband at the time Sonny Bono….I could go on and on about this beautiful legend, but see for yourself. I do want to mention singer Adam Lambert’s version of “Do You Believe” that he sang to Cher at Kennedy Center Honors when she was given a medal for her body of work. It was AMAZING. Don’t forget she’s also an Oscar winning actress! (Moonstruck)! ❤️❤️❤️

    In 1996 Cher released an album called “Its a Man’s World” which I bought, and it had some songs on it that were R&B; “One By One”, “Paradise Is Here”; the songs, and her ability to switch gears throughout her career, blew me away.❤️

    YAY!!! I remember being so shocked when I saw this video for the first time back in 1989. I couldn't believe MTV actually played it, which they would only do after 9pm. Of course it was surrounded in controversy. The Navy was PISSED when this video came out. They didn't know she was going to wear that outfit. To this day the Navy will still not allow any musician to film a music video on a naval ship. I saw Cher in concert 2 years ago on her 73rd birthday and she wore a replica of the outfit from this video and she can *STILL* rock it. Her self deprecating humor and her steadfast refusal to conform to....well, anything are just two of the many reasons I love her.

      My dad was a Commander on the USS Iowa when they did this. The Iowa's wardroom and crew were not happy that the Navy allowed this to happen on an Iowa-class battleship, even if it was on the Missouri. I remember it well.
