Back in the day, Tina wanted to do a rock album but Roger was against it and it never happened. I (Ben) guess it’s not only difficult for Tina Turner to get airplay in the US but also for a lot of old artists. The song is produced by British producers Brian Rawling and Mark Taylor.

This article is just amazing.

The song did not get airplay in U.S., but I do think the song was a extremely successful single – it did better than most of other Tina’s singles through the 90’s.

Later, she focussed on the positive message of the song, and learned to sing it as a victory song.With a fresh dance sound, and positive strong lyrics, all that was missing was a video.

At this point in her career, Tina was struggling to get radio air-play, especially in the United States; her last top 10 single was The team responsible for Cher’s new sound was Metro Productions in London, consisting of producers Mark Taylor and Brian Rawling.

She is the most successful female rock artist of all time: the Acid Queen or The Queen of Rock 'n' Roll.

!The way I see it is we can sit around till the cows come home debating what the right moves should have been when it comes to song choice and Music style.

Do you know any background info about this track?

Of course we are not talking about PD sales…My guess is for an artist like Tina, it is (was) more important to get airplay rather than good single sales to promote an upcoming album. Once she has been to “Wetten dass” with that song, there was a black girl in the audience crying at the end of the song.And this is what Tina said in the article above “MAGIC”I think that, at least, WTHIO was a great business move.

And her lashes in that video and she calls it a wrap at the end!! It only sold a little over 1 million copies, which would be considered good for many artists, but not for Tina Turner.I agree with your Tony Joe White comment!

No matter, she is the best. Even Madonna, after 2003, could not get decent airplay in U.S., with two exceptions (“4 Minutes” – with Justin Timberlake and “Hung Up” – through it was more a big-seller than an airplay smash).

I still play this album, although it is not my favourite Tina album.

While Tina usually changes the arrangements of her studio recordings dramatically when playing them live (pushing up the tempo and getting the guitars up front) – it was clear that this ‘faster and louder’ tactic just wouldn’t work for this song.

While Tina didn’t realize the parallels of the song’s lyrics to her own life at first, while filming the video, the words began to haunt her. Also, Tina has said that while she’d like another big hit, she doesn’t like the promotional part of it.I like a few of the songs on 24/7, but for the most part it followed the pattern of pretty much all of her albums, pop with a bit of rock, r&b thrown in and agree with lasse that Roger Davies has always had his eye on the commercial and not artistic-side due to what could get played/make money though the same could be said of Tina.

Later studio recordings for greatest hits compilations were often uninspired and very safe, thus failing to get noticed both by the critical press and record buyers.” That brings it exactly to the point: Tina focused very much on performing and not on recording classic, timeless music & albums.

Good to know!

Thank you.When the heartache is over has a nice vibe to it!

in recent tours (several dates had to be cancelled and they were having # 1 albums and singles).

However, I applaud Tina Turner for taking a chance on material that felt right for her. WTHIO is hard song to sing, but easy to remember. Many new facts i really didn´t know and believe or not, today I put all my 24/7 things include singles on the top of my wardrobe like a decoration… And now you made my day reading this article.

6 Get track Written by Graham Stack and John Reid for her album Twenty Four Seven (1999), it was released as the album's leading single in September 1999.

Tina Turner (born Anna Mae Bullock on 26 November 1939, Nutbush, Tennessee, USA) is a Grammy-winning multi-platinum rock/soul, r&b/pop singer, songwriter, actress, and author.

I think Roger is a great manager and he kept Tina as a Top-touring and a relevant music artist for many decades now.

Rob Thomas of matchbox 20 has said he wrote a song for Tina and it was declined (though I don’t know if it was Roger or the record co. or Tina herself who has said she doesn’t want songs that are submitted as “Tina songs”). This should be considered a huge feat and a big success.
