Tina Turner, "The Best"

[The Seldom Seen Kid]

Yes - it's award ceremony favourite "The Best". I always remember this being played before these minor sports ones when I was little.
Originally recorded by Bonnie Tyler (and reached #95 on the UK singles chart), a year later Tina took it into the American Top 20 and the UK Top 10 - in Europe it was particuarly popular.

Everytime I hear this song though it's now makes me think of this "performance" by the rejected Netherland Pop Idols. Watch out for the guy who sings "When you come to me... Give me everything I need" during the chorus- SMOOTH MOVES : www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2r5H5QlKlo

[AFRO SAMURAI]

I never really liked this one, even though it's one of her signature songs.

I like it, but it's not one of my favorites at all, and I'll like her songs with Ike over her solo material any day.
