To remember the figure of a woman ahead of her time, who moved millions of fans around the world, we have compiled in a playlist all the songs he turned into hits. The best tribute we can pay to the artist is to listen to his music, to keep his memory alive among us.
tina got up four solo No. 1s on the Principales listthe first, with We don’t need another heroin the fall of 1985, the central theme of the film Mad Max (Beyond Thunderdome)with which she herself played Mel Gibson.
Some of his hits in LOS40 have been performed with other major music personalities, such as This eveningin the key of reggae with david bowie (Top #6 in 1985) or the rocker It’s only loveshared with the Canadian Brian Adamswhich entered the list in April 1986.
She also got a No. 1 in her day as a duet with her first husband Ike, of unfortunate memory. Deep river – High mountain peaked in December 1966, the first year of existence of Top 40.
Tina has always had the ability to enrich the compositions of others who had already had success before, but which she appropriates with her inimitable and moving character and her interpretive strength. This is the case of Inferno Disc of the bums or of I miss you of John Waite. She also had the complicity of great artists who wrote some of her radio hits for her, such as the unforgettable private dancersigned by Mark Knopfler and it has reached position 11 on the list, or I do not want to lose youwritten by Albert Hammondanother radio hit for Turner in the spring of 1990.
If there is a song by Tina that has had several lives, it is this one. Nutbush City Limits, which she wrote autobiographically, referencing her hometown, Nutbush. Originally released in 1973, it was #1 on LOS40 (1988) in its live version recorded during its European tour in the second half of the 80s; and it still had a hit again in 1991 reaching number 13 on the chart in its 90s remix version with synthesizer touches.
In the “Musicine” section, a term popularized by our dear Joaquin Luquinor the factory disneynor the 007 saga, could not make it to Tina and tasked the Tennessee lioness with pairing her music with major 90s blockbusters such as The Lion Kingwith He lives in youlisted in June 1999, or golden eyewhose eponymous theme song was recorded in the winter of 1996.
